If this was a joke, I love the joke

Okay, you might actually don't understand, musk owns one of the biggest social media and musk stated that on the platform the word "cis" is considered a slur. Now you might think what does that have to do with trans people if he is against the word "cis". Well his daughter is trans-gender and musk insist that the woke mob killed his son as he refuses to acknowledge his daughter. His daughter doesn't want any relation at all with her father. He keeps deadnaming her. So it is fair to assume the he isn't very supportive of his daughter. So to sum it up, he is so against trans that the idea of being cis (so the opposite of trans) is too much of an acknowledgement of transgender people.

So why does he matter? Like I said, owner of X, Restricting the speech of many people because of he is too sensitive to handle cis due to his fear(?)/disgust(?) for trans.

So trans people are faced with the reality that some of the most powerful people on the planet are so much of a fucking snowflake and so much against their existence that even "cis" is a problem for them.

That is a good reason to be "annoying" by protest and ridicule these people.

Now musk is only one person but it isn't particularly difficult to find many many more.

Trans: e.g. because a lot of people, including people like Elon musk, lose their shit when presented to the idea that if trans-people are trans, that he, as an non-trans-person, is the opposite of trans which is cis.

I don't know, I kinda like the implication that Nazis aren't homo sapiens. And while being "homo" is certainly not bad, something tells me that Nazis wouldn't enjoy being called a "Homo Nazi".

Never donate if you don't have the money. You can put a imaginary bill in an imaginary jar and turn those imaginary bills in real ones once you get better off.

Thanks for caring but care for yourself first.

When did I or anyone talked about more than 6 figures? We talked about who got the money and in my comment, I made clear that "a lot of it" went to dickheads. so I thought it was obvious that i wasn't talking about "6 figures".

And also musk was legally required to buy the stocks... It was hardly a gamble. At least not a pony. It would have been a reasonable expectation that people will drive up the price because Elon (that genius) talked himself in a prison sentence if he didn't buy it for that price, like a genius would do.

I am aware. That is how stocks work. The billions "lost" got paid to previous owners of the stock.

I used "owning" instead of "owned", sorry, I guess.

A Twitter stock was $34 in early 2022 and got bought by musk for $53.70 in late 2022.

You could have made $20 with a $34 investment. There were certainly some good people who invested maybe $340 and made $200.

Why aren't they doing anything?

I wished they won't do shit. But in reality, they actively harm young people in their attempt of buying a home. E.g. I don't know if it is something that exists in the us but in Europe there are plenty of countries with laws to protect old buildings but most of the time these laws are flawed as fuck and result in less affordable housing for people who want to live somewhere and cheaper real estate for big fraudulent dickheads who want to build new rental buildings

To the people owning Twitter stocks. So a lot of rich dickheads but also to some non rich dickheads and actually good people.

Remember kids, the "failure" is economic failure, not moral, not utility.

Chatgpt is a "success". If the company is stealing your face, art, voice but it is making money, they list it as a success.

By that metric, FTX was a "success" until their fraud was revealed.

80% fail economically, how many of those 20% fail morally? How many of those 20% have real utility? (E.g. not only generating weird picture of poor children building Mickey mouse out of bottles)
