  1. I don’t like seeing people lose their jobs, but for Twitter employees I’ll make an exception.

  2. Um, Elon is not a free speech advocate. He is not what so many of us have been hoodwinked to think.

    He’s a globalist, a trans humanist.
    He intends to use Twitter as a world-ranging one stop shop for … everything.
    And he’s keen on digital ID which inevitably leads to Chinese style social credit. Oh, and the required GBI (guaranteed basic income) aka slavery.

    1. Oh, I don’t take him for a friend let alone an ally by any means. But I do like to watch the woke world burn and if he lights it on fire, I’ll grab a bowl of popcorn and listen to the lamentations of the soibois, tannies, and purple-haired shrikes.

    2. Correct! Keep your friends close…
      However in this case, I’d say keep your enemies close, and watch this particular “friend” like a hawk.

  3. I don’t quite get the symbolism of a sink. A toilet yes, a mop and wash bucket yes but what does a sink mean?

    1. Middle American here. I’ve heard it to two ways… everything but the kitchen sink. or everything and the kitchen sink.

      Usually in reference to what’s changing… everything and the KS… or… everything but the KS.

      Looks like we’re changing everything and the kitchen sink.

      When I first saw the video, I was wondering if he was carrying an add-on bidet.

      Which would bring chuckles as well.

      I like the craziness of Elon and have asked more than once, who is he in Atlas Shrugged…

    2. I think he just wanted a visual of the word play, “let that sink in”. That’s my read, anyway.

  4. Don’t get the sink thing but hey, it’s Elon. I’m also in agreement with some people here that he’s a little dubious with respect to his Libertarian bona fides. He talks a really good line and he’s adept at harvesting gov’t subsidies for his silly electric cars that we spend hours on here ridiculing so that’s all I know.
    Dude is sketchier than gas station sushi…so I’m holding back.
    Make me a believer.

  5. I think he paid $43 billion more than Twitter is worth, but these days I’ll take any small victory.

  6. Perhaps Elon will give us a template for cleaning out The Deep State … starting with the FBI? A 10% mass voluntary resignation would be a nice start. Perhaps just the THREAT of a second Trump Presidency in 2024 will initiate the turnover. That’d be nice.

  7. All of Elon’s detractors share the trait of collectively not adding up to a pimple on his butt.
    Looking at this thread, I can safely say that the west has ended not with a bang, not with a whimper, but with a “Reeeeeeeeeeee!”
