Someone get this asshole to get into a submarine
If only more billionaires tried to visit the Titanic.
Oh that’s dark 🤣🤣
Someone should tell Elon that an unprofitable website and a non-profit website are not the same thing.
Alternate headline:
“Massive shitcunt threatens to destroy the actual best part of the internet to the surprise of absolutely no one”
is what they meant to say
Incidentally, do you guys remember when this fuckhead was a darling of the left?
These are strange times.
He was a darling because he was a literally unknown person who introduced themselves with a controlled media profile who sold a way to approach the fossil fuel problem. The nice thing about the left is their views evolve rapidly to current events and Elon has been inescapable in media, so naturally he reveals his true neocon form.
The nice thing about the left is that they have some critical thinking abilities.
Made it more broad and concise for you.
can a wiki editor plz change his main profile pic to that balding paypal one he loves so much? k thnx bai.
As fun as that would be, we actually have standards, unlike Elon.
Is there anything that stops Elon Musk from buying Lemmy or Mastadon? Even if everyone were to migrate over to the Fediverse, what stops these websites from being bought as well?
You can’t “buy” Lemmy or Mastodon any more than you can buy email or World Wide Web
I’ve donated in the past and, thanks to the big baby, I think I’ll make a donation again
Why? Wikipedia makes a huge profit from donations that get put into trustees pockets. Fuck them.

“People will come up to me during fundraising season and ask if Wikipedia’s in trouble,” said Andrew Lih, an associate professor of journalism at American University and the author of “The Wikipedia Revolution.” “I have to reassure them that not only is Wikipedia not in trouble, but that it’s making more money than ever before and is at no risk of going away.”
In the fiscal year that ended last June, WMF reported net assets in excess of $77 million.
Suggestion: Donate instead to long time contributors directly
So he did get Twitter just to ruin it and take it away from the left. This proves it, because he wants to do it again to Wikipedia whilst calling it “Wokipedia” like a broken, right wing soundboard. Neither platform allowed lies and, since it’s the right and their only move is lies, in his view that makes them biased. Elon intentionally sabotaged twitter because it wouldn’t let him and his rich cunt friends lie and now they want to do it to Wikipedia. He genuinely doesn’t have a moral foundation, it’s just lies and manipulation all the way down to his shriveled, rotten core.
I found this interesting article when trying to understand why he’s doing what he’s doing with Twitter. What was Elon Musk’s strategy for Twitter? - NBC News
On the day that public records revealed that Elon Musk had become Twitter’s biggest shareholder, an unknown sender texted the billionaire and recommended an article imploring him to acquire the social network outright.
Musk’s purchase of Twitter, the 3,000-word anonymous article said, would amount to a “declaration of war against the Globalist American Empire.” The sender of the texts was offering Musk, the Tesla and SpaceX CEO, a playbook for the takeover and transformation of Twitter…
The text messages described a series of actions Musk should take after he gained full control of the social media platform: “Step 1: Blame the platform for its users; Step 2: Coordinated pressure campaign; Step 3: Exodus of the Bluechecks; Step 4: Deplatforming.”
That pressure campaign is against the Anti Defamation League which Musk has been trying to do.
So I guess he’s doing it all for far right adulation.
Too late it already ruined itself.
EDIT Wikipedia is bad place to learn about politics and history.
