Elon Musk finalizing deal to buy Twitter, World War 3 forgotten
This is huge news, sure, but the priorities of some people on social media is worrying.
When I think of incredibly scary, world-changing cataclysms, the threat of the seemingly imminent World War 3 scenario with a heavy sprinkling of nuclear weaponry deployment comes to mind. More domestically, a second U.S. civil war is definitely not off the table, but we as overstimulated human beings need the newest and most salacious bit of gossip getting milled through the spin machine of the institutional left. Add to that the general American penchant to overvalue the status of a celebrity and you find that news about the richest man in the world is much more attractive to the left, especially. Why? Because it breaks their stranglehold over public discourse through big tech social media censorship by giving a mainstream avenue for all voices to be heard.
Elon Musk is officially finalizing his purchase of Twitter at the original price of $44 billion, a move that will take the company private, resulting in a nice payoff for shareholders. This will also seemingly end a standoff that has lasted for several months and was the primary subject of a lawsuit that was set to be argued in a Delaware court.
Twitter’s former CEO Jack Dorsey has lauded the move, saying, “I trust his [Musk’s] mission to extend the light of consciousness,” in a tweet.
Others from Twitter, however, are not quite so happy with the news. Many Twitter employees hiding behind anonymity have decried the move to allow Musk to take over Twitter. Others, like Parker Lyons, has made it his mission to make his displeasure over the move well known by spamming crying memes and other childish things that resemble a petulant man-baby throwing a tantrum on the internet. The pronouns in his bio tell you all you need to know about how he might feel about others he doesn’t agree with being allowed free speech on the platform.
Seethe.
Another notable one is the meltdown of Rumman Chowdhury, Twitter’s “director of machine learning ethics”. Talk about a conjured career path. Anyway, she tweeted out this gem:
Referring of course to the show “Succession” on HBO. I’ve never watched it, personally, so I can only take her word for it. It is telling, though, how much they are against this move when they know Elon’s feelings on free speech. To Twitter leftists, allowing everyone to join a discussion regardless of their positions on a given topic is tantamount to violence. This is the ‘words = violence’ crowd, after all. I would be lying if I said getting a double dip of schadenfreude from not one, but two cycles of lefty meltdowns wasn’t cathartic. Thank you, based Elon.
It ultimately smacks of the NPC mentality that what affects them directly takes precedence in their minds, despite all their virtue signaling. Elon’s acquisition of Twitter being finalized is bigger news fodder right now than the possibility of the ongoing escalation through posturing and rhetoric of a potential World War 3.
The “alt-milk latte class” cannot see past their own contrived crises to care about other human beings, their derangement won’t allow them to do so. It reminds me of a a Twitter thread argument I had yesterday with a sadly misguided individual who challenged me on why I rescinded my support for Democrats after Obama turned out to be ‘business as usual’ in Washington D.C. rather than bringing the ‘hope and change’ agenda he promised. He was incredulous that I would dare remind the world how much of a tyrant Obama turned out to be. This is why I left the left. That exact individual. They drove me away with their mania.
Let’s keep our priorities straight as a people and focus on things that matter. If we have to uproot our cancerous government once we’re united, so be it. That is the secret to why they sow so much division in the first place.
I promise to keep you all apprised of these situations as they develop, as I have several articles in the works detailing why relations are continually breaking down amongst the power players occupying the proverbial powder keg that threatens to explode and send us into unprecedented territory as a people: Mutually Assured Destruction. That is more important than a billionaire’s money moves.
