Musk has done so much for humanity with X, Tesla, and Space X.

He’d be a huge improvement for Disney.

Why? He doesn't own parts of other entertainment companies that I am aware of
Disney (with all its holdings) is hardly just an entertainment company.

Elon's lone goal in his mind is to save humanity so running Disney doesn't fit in with that. Destroying it in its current form does.


I don’t think Elon is that noble. I will say him owning Disney doesn’t mean him running Disney on a day to day basis. If he and his “friends” own a controlling interest they can set and manage the direction of Disney from the board room.

Dear Elon:

WHEN you buy Disney, please relegate Star Wars Episodes 7, 8 and 9 to the dust bin of history and reboot the saga...

You probably wanted to gobble his balls for starting Tesla until you learned he isn’t a woke psycho like your heroes are.


This is the biggest laugh of them all. All those smug NPR-listening Tesla owners are in full freak out. I call them "undocumented Twitter owners" because they funded the whole affair and got nothing in return other than a car.

Elon isnt going to own it
Hes just working with Peltz and this guy Ike Perlmutter

Both hate Iger and want Disney to return to making quality films. Ike was a Marvel exec

It would still be awesome. I'm sure the annual pass prices would go up to reduce crowding in the parks, sorta like Twitter blue

Unless you can get it at a discount it seems like more trouble than it’s worth.


Disney stock was up in the $200 range in 2021, but is now $98 and change. It's original image was of wholesome children's entertainment, but the woke groomers in charge abandoned that over the last few decades.

I just saw that on X. He posted something similar on Twitter before he initiated steps to buy it.

Bob Iger is the largest individual shareholder

The Nelson guy isn't even in the top 5 individuals

Vanguard and Black Rock own the most

But y'all simp way too hard for Elon and yes, the reddit Tesla people also simped way too hard

Don't be a simp is the point
