It's not just lemmy that's benefiting from Elon Musk.

I wonder if previous twitter execs are feeling a bit bad to have sold him twitter to see it destroyed like that.

I mean it certainly proves Elon is an idiot as he used fraud to manipulate the price and got played instead.

But was it worth it to let him destroy Twitter just because he tried to defraud it?

They got $44 billion, double what sane people thought the company was worth. It would be irresponsible not to take Elon for a ride.
