    What did he win? They aren’t going to resume advertising with him. They got out of the lawsuit without having to pay lawyers or change their behavior. What did he win?

      So do you honestly think he just wanted their money?

      You don’t think that Elon Musk is over there laughing because they dropped the lawsuit, and thinking that he’s top dog cuz they went away?

      Have you seen his ego?

      I mean, I like Elon, but he’s def a slave to his ego. I still like him, but come on…lol

      He started a legal fight with someone, they backed down. Money losses or not, he definitely won. Because they dropped.

      And he is grinning.

      I mean, I def would prefer money. But I don’t think that’s always his goal.

        If a stupid person being impressed by himself counted as “winning,” there’d be a whole lot more winners out there.

        But it doesn’t.

          Because he has the balls to do what he wants. Even when all you guys scream and cry.

          Regardless of whether you like him or hate him, he works hard, gets shit done. Even if you don’t like it.

          Now having said that, I also don’t give a shit if he loses it all. I admire him, but I don’t worship him.

          And I fucking LOVE what he did with Twitter. Liberals cry censorship now that it doesn’t always favor them on the platform, but they laughed when republicans cried censorship on the old twitter.

          By the way, censorship sucks regardless of platform. I just find it laughingly ironic how you all cry now, but where laughing then.

          In other words, you think it’s fine to censor republican stuff. But get fucking mad when democrat stuff gets censored.

          You all were doing the same fucking thing!
