       I apologize for talking about Twitter on other sites, but here's the thing: it's just such a legal, business, and political trainwreck.Elon Musk is 100% responsible for the drop in advertising and the crushing debt load. The debt came from his purchase and he chose to alienate advertisers. This is entirely his fault.

       @maxkennerly Maybe Elon could threaten to run ads UNLESS the advertizers pay him!

       @DemocracyMattersALot @maxkennerly Musk to advertisers: “Your brand name here.”

       @maxkennerly somehow, society still believes rich guys are demigods among mere mortals

       @maxkennerly "before we have the luxury of anything else" he says, as he chooses to hemorrhage additional money to paying thousands to some of the most despicable users of his free platform.

       @LouisIngenthron @maxkennerly I would like to know what those unaffordable luxury are, in his agenda. A working platform?

       @leclau @maxkennerly Competent employees?  Office space that's actually paid for?  Someone competent to run the show?  All unnecessary luxuries for a multi-billion dollar tech company.

       @maxkennerly Moments like these are great reminders: we can have anything we want in life, but we get everything that comes with it

       @maxkennerly "we have negative cash flow but are somehow revenue sharing with right wing assholes" is such a weird way of trying to gain advertiser trust.

       @maxkennerly This is about the severance thing, isn't it. Musk stiffed the people he fired, and they sued, and now he's like, "How can I be expected to live up to my promises when this company I'm running is such a dumpster fire?"

       @tob @maxkennerly and this is exactly why twitter is doomed.  He fired/pushed all the staff who understood the system and because he is stiffing them, he has 0 trust with anyone he might want to hire.  Not that many competent people would want too.  Car crash captivating.

       @maxkennerly It's not that he alienated advertisers. It's that *every* action he takes on twatter seems to be targeted at amplifying right wing messages.

       @maxkennerly do you think his choice to funnel ad revenue to human traffickers and white nationalists will help or hurt the platform’s relationship with advertisers?

       @mkranz @maxkennerly I don't know about you, but I wouldn't want to advertise on a site that caters to literal Nazis.
