It might be that you didn't write your message directly to me, but as it is an answer to me, I do take the content a bit personal.

My comment is just an observation about a very probable scenario. If people want to pay and continue using its API, perfect. He can do whatever he wants. I don't use it, so I don't give a crap about it.

The only reason Elon is being made out to be evil is because the fake media tells the gullible people to hate him now.
I don't know him personally, but I know people who I respect that do know him, some colleagues and a couple of friends went to Berlin to work for him, only 3 are still there, the rest didn't like what they saw / had to experience and went away from "a damned toxic environment" (literal comment). So at least my opinion is not just for being gullible and reading media.

You seem to forget that Twitter is a company that was run on a bed of lies and losing money like crazy.
No I don't.
Jeremy Falcon wrote:
He didn't buy it to make billions.
I don't care why he did it.
Jeremy Falcon wrote:
He bought it for altruistic reasons.
Yeah, of course... That's why he is doing just the opposite than he said and banning people for not agreeing with him / critizicing him. You called me gullible, but you are being a bit naive if you really think that.
He said he would buy it for "ego" or because he spoke before really thinking about it, then backed up and at the end he bought it because he was forced by a court to do it.
Jeremy Falcon wrote:
And yet, average people who don't know a 100th of what he does will still insult him when the TV they worship tells them it's time to hate something else.
It doesn't apply. I do respect what he has achieved, I just don't like his personality. About your "100th"... I am not sure if he really is THAT intelligent, and again... I don't care. IF he really is, good for him. I would not change me for him at any moment.
Additionally, as far as I know I have never insulted him. I might have made contextual jokes, yes. But I really think I didn't cross that line.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.
