Ron Wright: "Elon Musk once jokingly offered to end World Hunger, asking how much it would cost as if it would be some incalculable number. When the United Nations replied saying $6.6 Billion would be enough to immediately end famine for the year, Musk never responded, and a few months later bought Twitter for $44 Billion. You struggle and suffer because of people like him, not because your neighbor is an immigrant."

❝If you’re still on Twitter/X does that mean you’re a fascist?
No, of course not.
It just means fascism isn’t a deal breaker for you.❞

@WastelandWandrr @RonSupportsYou @cairobraga @clintruin @aral My grandfather was a card carrying fascist, directly from Il Duce's ranks. He was human i.e. had somewhat low cognitive power to understand that his late hatred of militarism was at the very core of fascism, but he died still saying he believed in fascism as at an earlier stage or something. Anyway, people are just somewhat dumb but still needing care. There are more ways to help than just getting out of reach... as long as they hear.

Ridiculous argument, would you consider the likes of Francesca Albanese, Susan Abul Hawa as fascist collaborators or what (cos they are still active on X) ?! 🙄
Many of us in the #globalsouth have been using #twitter before 'Muskian takeover' happened and are still using it cos it's still used by majority of the activists in places like #pakistan #india #bangladesh #southasia and leaving X would turn it into something like TruthSocial or Bsky

TBF, it's very hard to consume ethically under capitalism, even in one subcategory. It's impossible if you don't have a time to make it a hobby/lifestyle.
For example, you can replace X with Mastodon, ofc, but not if you're into following political accounts. Then the alternatives are all commercial, and they're all fascist-adjacent.

Elon can't come-up with $15 to pay for his own candy-favored kiddie coffee. He lives inside the world's biggest balloon animal. Probably looks like a dog taking a shit.

@RonSupportsYou I remember this. It's worse than that. When he asked how much it would cost he also offered to pay for it if it was less than some number of billions. I forget the exact figure. The WHO costed it at below that cost. Musk then got very quiet on the topic. _Then_ he bought twitter. And tried to welch on that deal having refused to do due diligence, and was sued into honouring the contract he agreed too.

1) The 'genius' of Mr. Musk belongs to the people he's hired.
2) Mr. Musk is likely to say whatever comes to his mind, especially if he thinks it will sell something. E.g. his 'Mars Colony' idea is *impossible* to realize in many, many ways ... whether he knew that or not it didn't matter to him.
