he does that whenever you press him to take an actual stand on a subject.

Except for Winston when he played for the Saints. Dude would gladly go prolapsed if Winston was ever in the room with him.

Was wondering when you would show up and contribute to the false narrative.

We had a meeting at my company this week about advertising on X again.

Even the lefties that run social understand you have to be there. Every channel has a different following.

I don’t instagram at all except to see tits and arse. I do, however, check Twitter all the time. If I want to instantly know what’s la going on, I go to twitter. From world events to traffic to “what’s that smoke east of Atlanta.”

The narrative of you massively failing to ever make any sort of logical argument?

Yeah I’m always down to contribute to that.

Man I wish I could be as ignorant as you sometimes.

Oh wait no I don't.

And you once again continue to prove my point of you never having any sort of logical argument.

What's your point in this thread? There isn't a single thing you've actually stood on so far. The closest thing to an argument you've said is along the lines of "you just wait and see!".

You're a coward. Be a man. Take a stand on something, for once.

Half the revenue, double the profit. That's how much wasteful spending was going on. Wild.


Just imagine all the Gov waste! Once we reduce the waste we can take in less money and still have leftover for tax cuts.

Thats what DOGE is doing on a bigger scale.

I said that they doubled in profit, yet are barely breaking even.

I clearly said that as a jab against a misleading headline that makes it seem like Twitter is thriving. It isn't.

That's not true, you know it isn't true, yet its what you believe because you're just another sensationalistic idiot when it comes to stuff like this.

It is within the context of where the company stood when he took it private. Your jab is as weak as any other argument you make.

Your arguments are and have always been weak. Whenever you’re pressed to defend your points….you run or deflect. I’m not the only one that sees this.

Stand by your point. Elaborate. Give an actual argument instead of a poor “gotcha” attempt.

Give us some numbers. What’s the path of profitability? Are his numbers trending down? Are there statistics that show the OP’s claim to be wrong?

There are literally numbers on the first page of this thread asking what you are asking. Are you so obsessed with me that you just open threads like this looking for my responses?

But I’m asking you. Because if you were able to think on your own, you would see that poster’s numbers also don't tell a complete story.

I just did an experiment to see how easily and quickly I could find the information I already knew about X to see how difficult it could be for you to research.

It took me five minutes to compare EBIDTA from 2024, 2021, and growth rate through the end of the year to see X is projected to be worth 4x’s his purchase price.

And this is WITHOUT the additional revenue stream of X Payments which should be starting this year.

Should I just let an idiot prove to the world he’s an idiot? I’m trying to teach a child to fish so he can one day become a man.

I do it because it’s mildly entertaining.

That you think this is a certainty with a volatile businessmen like Musk in an industry that's rapidly expanding is pretty funny.

This is another one of your bullshite points with no merit.

Back up your stance. Give reasons why. I gave you numbers that back up my argument. You do the same.
