Project Veritas strikes again with another video of a Twitter senior engineer.  Nice to know that what we see with our own eyes is what is really happening based on the confirmation of an employee.  Too bad Musk probably won't buy it because its subscriber numbers are wildly inflated by bots.  The company claims <5% but hasn't been able to provide proof as yet.  If I were an advertiser and a shareholder I would want to know.  And if I were a shareholder and the deal falls through because they have been lying about their numbers I would gladly join a class action lawsuit.  That is called securities fraud.

Some highlights....or lowlights depending on your point of view.

They censor the right because the right is willing to tolerate other perspectives but the left won't and will leave the platform if they allow dissenting opinions.

This guy works around 4 hours a week and no one works hard because they will be accused of being money hungry.  Some have not worked in months for mental health breaks.

The employees went into full revolt to try to stop Musk but the Board was more worried about their own liability and approved the deal.  They were binge eating at the news.

Twitter employees do not believe in free speech.  It is biased against viewpoints at odds with leftist ideology.

He wasn't a leftist until he went to work at Twitter but he sees all the contradictions.

Twitter is not run in a businesslike way, has no interest in making profit and the guy wondered if it was being propped up by the U.S. government.

The left bias is definitely there. I don't know anyone who uses it, except a bunch of pseudo-celebrities.

I'm not on Twitter or Fakebook but I do like the website Twitchy which is a Twitter aggregator.  They post the incredibly stupid and tone deaf tweets by leftist idiots and some of the best and funniest replies.  Otherwise I am not interested in the world of social media platforms.  They are a wasteland of human garbage and a monumental waste of valuable time.  I do get a laugh out of Elon Musk's tweets as he is usually funny and spot on.  Even Jeff Bezos has tweeted a number of jabs at Dementia Joe.  When you lose the leftist billionaires all you are left with is the dregs of society.....which based on his poll numbers is about all that DJ has at this point.

You probably didn't see the post from Archie where he claims DJ is doing a better job than DJT.  Talk about blinded by ideology....

Current PE (price to earnings ration):

TWTR        Twitter                          178

SO              Southern Company      34

NSC            Norfolk & Southern     20

Remember the day when you should have been reluctant to buy any stock with a PE above 10 ? (I do… Norfolk & Southern.) If the price of the stock is 178 times the earnings, then all you have invested in… is air.

If Musk buys TWTR at $54.20 per share, he’s buying a sack of air for which he’ll get 30 cents per share in earnings. I ask you: Would YOU buy this stock?

The stock market is way over valued. If you know this and can sleep at night… given your portfolio… then you’ll be okay. But, if you can’t handle a 30% or more loss without being ruined, then just hold on.   That’s right… HOLD. There is nothing YOU can do about it.

Many days I think about blocking people like GFY and Antifatech - The only reason I do not is often the rest of the discussion (or verbal flogging) is so much more entertaining then the mindless crap they consider news.

I didn't see that although it doesn't surprise me that he would state something so objectively untrue that no one with half a brain would think it let alone actually state it.....so he is somewhere between half a brain and none at all.....I am thinking closer to the latter.  Archie consistently proves the old adage that it's better to be thought a fool than to post something like that on the forum (i.e., open your mouth) and remove all doubt.  The funny thing is the overwhelming number of Americans that understand that we are going in the wrong direction.  Archie is part of the 23% that are too stupid or ideologically blind to recognize the reality we are in right now....probably both.  I still pray every time I go into a building in Atlanta that he wasn't the architect. 

When the recession hits as a result of the Fed raising the discount rate to combat inflation we will have hit the trifecta.....high interest rates, high inflation and recession.....stagflation.  Something we haven't seen since Jimmy Carter was President.

I do indeed remember the days but they seem to be long gone.  Meme stocks, tech stocks, etc. are all simply crazy.  Am reading an interesting book about the history of banking in the U.S. and it is amazing to watch us repeat all the same errors with the supply of fiat money.......designed to allow the inflation of goods and services and hard assets.  Problem is the Fed is no better at managing that process than they were in a more lasse faire monetary system in the past and always overshoot on the way up and on the way down.  I have Twitter stock but only via index funds.  To me they are like crypto.....I don't uderstand the value proposition and so I stay away from them.  Let others more open to risk rise and fall with them.  The stories of people losing their life savings on crypto are all over the place now that that this market has crashed. I am happy to be old fashioned and make my money through hard work, calculated risk taking and patience.

I think if Musk does buy Twitter it won't be at $54 per share.....something much less or not at all. They are significantly understating the number of bots to inflate the rates they charge advertisers and prop up their stock price.  It will not end well if the truth comes out.
