I don’t think this is going to go well financially or otherwise. Why the hell would the engineers work their ass off on anything other than finding a new job?

And his genius business plan is to charge $20 a month for checkmarks that only matter even a little bit to mainstream journalists.
I’m sure this will all work out for him because we live in hell but this guy is a straight up fucking moron.

How many blue checks are there? 10k? So that’s 200k/mo, or 2.4M/yr. That $54bn will pay for itself in no time.
Think of all the deplorables paying for check marks. I assume there will be vetting whatsoever aside from the marker pen on the old Andy Jackson.
The Acela belt reporters will have no problem paying $20/mo, but small local journalists are going to get shut out.
His whole “lie, distract and mobilize my troll army” thing works fine for a publicly traded stock. But when you own a private company none of that matters, you have to actually make money. Someone is going to have to come up with at least $500 million to keep this thing going. Every year. Maybe MBS does that, but if it’s Truth 2.0 I’m not sure what the value is in doing so.
Nah you just need a few big whale suckers instead of lots of little minnow suckers.
Is Morgan Stanley owning twitter better or worse?
Would anywhere near a million people actually buy a paid service to use Twitter in that respect? Besides the bots or some business repping their own, how many folks are going to fork out money to argue on the internet? Would you pay? Social media seems to be a lower % highly addicted volume based group to me which has to top out eventually anyways.
Does Elon really think he can get Trump to pay for verification? He’ll be able to fuck off to Mars before that happens.

Would I pay? Bitch, I pay for four patreons, 3 substacks, nty, wash post, Atlantic, ny review of books, YouTube premium and some other stuff. I’m a total fish.
Hell, I’d probably pay $200/yr for Twitter, but I don’t think I’m representative.
(However, I did just sign up for new broadband and internet for $150/mo after Spectrum had me paying $260/mo. Don’t taunt the fish. I can now spend $110/mo on other stuff, like coasters at Etsy.)

His whole “do impossible shit or you’re fired” routine is just not going to go well here.
