      Well, when you fire all the competent people solely so that you can brag about the number of people you fired…

        This was the first warning. We all saw him cosplay as a Matrix extra, and we did laugh at him, but we didn’t bully this dork ass bitch enough.

          I don’t think bullying dorks who cosplay as their cyberpunk OC will help. Bully billionaires instead.

    Keep in mind this is “X, the everything app”. Musk expects it to be your one stop on the internet for everything, including online banking.

      Anyone who wants the internet to be like this… It’s hard to describe adequately.

      The idea makes me as angry as I was when I was a kid and first heard about the destruction of the library of Alexandria. It is a deep dark rage.

    This is entirely on Twitter. For your average person, sending a court-ordered fine to the wrong institution means it hasn’t been paid.

    Plus, theres the fact that Musk is completely untrustworthy. After all the effort it’s taken to get Twitter to pay up, I wouldn’t restore their ability to earn income from Brazilians until the fine was secured thoroughly and correctly.

      The xitter lawyers claim that there was no bank account indicated anywhere so they “had to guess” and are demanding xitter to be unlock as they paid the fine.

      In other words, either they’re grossly incompetent and can’t read, or they’re playing malicious by trying to abuse some loophole or anything to ultimately not pay the fine

      I wouldn’t trust Musk for anything!

      Not for a million dollars, not for a Brazilian dollars, not even for a trillion dollars!

      It’s like an old kind of onion headline, before someone fucked with the timeline and realities got mixed up.
