Elon Musk on X antisemitism controversy: “Don’t advertise. Go f*** yourself”
Musk says X advertiser backlash is "going to kill the company."
You're viewing a single thread.
Musk responded that the advertising boycott is likely to kill the company. "What this advertising boycott is going to do is it's going to kill the company, and the whole world will know that those advertisers killed the company and we will document it in great detail,"
When Sorkin pointed out that advertisers see things differently, Musk replied, "oh yeah? Tell it to Earth."
Sorkin continued: "They're going to say, Elon, that you killed the company because you said these things and they were inappropriate things and they didn't feel comfortable on the platform. That's what they're going to say."
"And let's see how Earth responds to that," Musk replied.
I mean… I think that pretty much removes any last doubt anyone might have had that Elon Musk had any grasp on the reality that he himself exists in.
Dude you missed quoting the best bit!
"If somebody is going to try to blackmail me with advertising, blackmail me with money? Go fuck yourself," Musk said.
Sorkin replied, "but," and trailed off. Musk wasn't done. "Go fuck yourself. Is that clear? I hope it is. Hey, Bob!" Musk said. Musk was apparently addressing Disney CEO Bob Iger, who previously said at the conference that advertising on X "was not necessarily a positive" association and so Disney "decided we would pull our advertising."
The Muskrat told Disney CEO to go fuck himself.
On video.
With a hard F. No dissembling.
The Tesla board should remove him as CEO as he is clearly unstable.
It’s mean to laugh at people self destructing.
But anyway … fucking lol.
I think he's going to OD someday
I'm not about to condone suicide.
But the world can do with less billionaires, especially those as mad as Elmo.
He was already destituted as CEO years ago.
I need this video

First of all thanks for sharing
Second of all, lmao what a retard
No idea how anyone could drive one of those Tesla deathtraps with this guy at the helm
He's clearly lost what little he had
Isn't he talking to Sorkin, tells him to fuck off and then he talks to Bob?
I don't think the fuck off was directed at Sorkin, but the companies who had pulled advertising.
The Tesla board should remove him as CEO as he is clearly unstable.
Walk me through how you get from this to "instability", whatever that's intended to mean.
Did you watch the clip?
Not what I would be looking for in a CEO.
What a ceo does or doesn't do is immaterial
I don't really see how that's an answer to my question.
Like, the vibes are bad? That's what you're saying? And what you want from a CEO is good vibes?
If someone is so unhinged that he repedatly can't control his language and emotions, it is a valid reason to suspect that these Person might have serious psychological Problems. So this Person might not be suitable to perform his dutys as CEO of a Company. And he also shouldn't because the Stress and Pressure that comes with this Postion might add to his Problem.

Are you currently unhinged? Like, I'm not even sure what word you tried to spell here, but why should I not take this as a sign that you can't control your language or emotions?
Why should I think Musk can't "control his language"? Because he said a dirty poo-poo word?

Sorry, I just want to be clear, here. You're raving at me that it's Musk who might have "psychological problems"? And not you, who obviously can't control yourself at all?
I just checked your Account. Created 5 Days ago. Only one Post with Bad ratio, lots of negative Comments. So I guess you are just a Troll and not worth of my Time.
Sorry I'm not popular enough for you to talk to
Stop deepthroating Elongateed Muskrat ezpz
Is english your first language? Because "Unhinged" is a pretty common Word even for me, with english as a second Language. Here is a Link to a Dictonary that might help you.
I'm just passing by to say he ain't worth arguing with.
He's literally acting unhinged towards you
Checked his Account probably a Troll. Im just gonna report and block him.
This is wise. I really hope they're trolling as the alternative is they're actually like that.
I'm not asking about the word "unhinged", I'm asking if you consider yourself unhinged because you said:
repedatly
What word is that even supposed to be?
I don't understand how you don't look at your own posts, with their bizarre spelling and use of capitalization, and believe you can accuse Elon Musk of "not being in control of his language."
He's a CEO. His job is to guide his company to make money. His actions are actively doing the opposite: he is causing his company to lose money.
While this happens from time to time, a smart, presumably stable CEO reverses course and engages in damage control when this happens. Instead, Musk is doubling down hard, despite knowing full well this is likely to destroy the platform formerly known as Twitter.
Look at it this way. You have an investment banker than handles investing a great deal of your money. You just found out said banker just made a series of awful decisions which caused the investments of several of their other clients to crash. They are unrepentant and refuse to take responsibility, instead telling those involved to go fuck themselves.
Would you want that person to continue to handle your money?
His actions are actively doing the opposite: he is causing his company to lose money.
At Twitter? Sure, but so were the previous guy's. It's not actually clear that a social media company can generate revenue at all.
I agree it seems pretty unlikely that Musk is going to turn it around but that's because the outcome is probably impossible - it's not possible for Twitter to make money.
Tesla and SpaceX, his other companies, are making money. If you're on the board of those then there's no reason to wonder if Musk is causing the company to lose money because you can just look at revenues and see that he's not.

Well, good decisions aren't his forte, so what else is left there?
Are they not? His companies are, on balance, profitable in sectors which were largely written off before he succeeded in them (new car companies, private space launch.)
We've got another fan boy here who doesn't realize Musk actually isn't directly responsible for any of the innovations of the companies he funded or purchased. He just had money.
That's simply ignorant. Here's Tom Mueller, co-founder of SpaceX on Musk's contributions to spaceflight:
Elon was the best mentor I've ever had. Just how to have drive and be an entrepreneur and influence my team and really make things happen. He's a super smart guy and he learns from talking to people. He's so sharp, he just picks it up. When we first started he didn't know a lot about propulsion. He knew quite a bit about structures and helped the structures guys a lot. Over the twenty years that we worked together, now he's practically running propulsion there because he's come up to speed and he understands how to do rocket engines, which are really one of the most complex parts of the vehicle. He's always been excellent at architecting the whole mission, but now he's a lot better at the very small details of the combustion process. Stuff I learned over a decade-and-a-half at TRW he's picked up too.
This isn't the story of a guy who just "had money".

A bit of clear eyed professionalism would be a good start.
What he has achieved in the past is in the past.
Tesla is a major public traded company.
Business is business.
Your charismatic public facing CEO has turned from an asset to a liability?
Punt him.
Tesla is facing some headwinds, increasing competition in the EV space, reported troubles with some of its upcoming products, industrial disputes. Nothing that can’t be dealt with … If your CEO is not shitting the bed in public in another company and quite clearly under a lot of stress.
How can he be providing the attention and care Tesla needs from its CEO and for that matter Space X etc etc
More importantly how are the public, shareholders, customers viewing this? Do they think there is a loose unit in charge behaving irrationally and will that affect the confidence in the company?
Your charismatic public facing CEO has turned from an asset to a liability?
Has he? If you're a shareholder of Tesla or SpaceX why would you think that?
increasing competition in the EV space
Didn't Ford just cancel the F150 Lightning?
Because they see what he is doing at Twitter? Like, what the hell dude, that question has such an obvious answer, yet you ask it anyway. And I know why you do it - because now you will try to argue that what happens with Twitter and his public image doesn't matter to Tesla which is a load of bull
His behaviour is pretty self explanatory.
He truly must believe he’s one of the good guys. Lmao Earth isn’t going to rise up for a divorced apartheid emerald mine inheritor, you dork.
Aren't loans collateralized with Tesla shares? Maybe he is implying that if Twitter goes poof, it could really hurt or possibly destroy Tesla
If I remember correctly, only a third of the whole payment was financed with Tesla shares as collateral.
Now that, that sounds like blackmail.
Yeah, fuck divorced people!
You can't hold a firm grasp on reality if it is distorted by your massive narcissism already. He thinks anyone but the bags of shit still on his platform care.
Twitter never actually mattered and nothing of value will be lost. He can pound sand.
Yikes. Broke Mind Virus.
What does he mean with his Earth comments? I’m so confused.
He means the planet is on his side. Because his ego is that size.
That’s crazy. This is why they tell you not to do drugs.
Not to do ketamine anyway, which apparently is his drug of choice.
He should have stuck to weed I guess.
I mean, he seemed pretty fucking high out of his gourd, so I suspect that he didn't really know what reality he was in.
