...and that's why they put a "good" in "goodbye"
Yeah go on Elon, less fakenews in europe is a total win
The fake news, the misinformation, the amplifiers, the conspiracies, etc.. Losing Twitter would be a win. It would be wonderful to be able to crack down on some of the groups on things like Telegram and FB and WhatsApp. The blatant lies they spread. And lies about lies too.
My wife is part of a group like this. And over the past week, as you can imagine, the channel is rife with bullshit. They have posted fake things, then deleted them and claimed they were hacked to explain why the post was made or deleted. And people were like, "oh yeah sure that makes sense"

Perhaps Mr. Musk would be receptive to the following message:
Hey Musk! You're not a bitch like Zuckerberg right? Show the world the man that you are and pull out of the EU like you mean it! I dare you! You won't if you got no balls!
Yeah Elmo, do it! You can show the whoel world how much more of a man you are! Do it!

Facebook said the same thing a few years ago and here I am, waiting for them to go away
Mark Zuckerberg, for all his flaws, seems to be a functioning adult.
And a somewhat calculating buisiness man, I have far higher hopes for little Elon in this case!
Oh well, don't let the door hit you in the ass on your way out...
The fact that he says heβs βconsidering itβ means heβs not going to do it.
Otherwise he would have just done it. This is a ploy to have his cake and eat it by issuing empty threats.

Don't get your hopes up, kids. The cunt won't.
Yes please. This would further accelerate its fall from being considered the defacto internet town square.

Clearly nothing shady at all when your company makes threats (empty or otherwise) that they're gonna disappear from your country if you investigate them for incompliance.
Nothing to see here, just move along. /s
I think he is also toddler enough to do it.
Please please please do
That would genuinely be so good.
The thing is that it won't save him from the current inquiry. Once the EU rules that he is in breach of the current legislation (which he clearly is) he owes them a shitload of money. Sure, he chose to not pay(he is mad enough to try). But that would later on make the Twitter penalties his personal problem.
And that is painful even for a billionaire. No more skiing in the Swiss Alps, no more Saint Tropez in the summer, no Monaco. And none of his assets can ever return to the EU or EU friendly allies.
That would probably make him even more mad.
Which I like. A lot.

Please, do!
Good. Who needs this festering cesspit of propaganda, hate, and drivel anyway?
Nive! Now how can we get Zuckerberg to do the same?
Would be great!
Xitter, begone!
And nothing of value was lost.
I'm just here for the party
Do it, man.
Oh no!
Anyways
Yes, please!
Nothing would be lost.
DO IT!!!!!
Good riddance! πͺπΊ
Bye! π
Yes please!
Yes please
DO IT
Oh no xD
I hope promises
Good riddance β€οΈ
Fucking good
