Here's a better/longer video but I didn't post it because the replies are cancer. https://x.com/AhmedBaba_/status/1729998208116379846 (Nitter isn't working for me.)
It's funny because yeah he's literally showing off that he has "fuck you" money but then admits if advertisers leave they're going to kill twitter.

It’s funny that Disney just stopped paying for ads. They still advertise on the platform through their Twitter account.
This man is a beautiful fucking autist.
God I wish I had fuck you money, most of my day would be spent doing whatever I want will I'd have an AI telling certain people to go fuck themselves 24/7...
He's in a position where they can't get twitter back, he can't be blackmailed to be a pussy like the old bosses so they could kill twitter without advertising but then THEY lose as they aren't just addicted to it but every competitor has failed compared to them.
Also I'm betting the more money broker side (cough pro Israeli) is more on Elon side simply because the current ones trying to cancel Elon are ALSO the ones more pro Palestinian.
"fuck you" money is a state of mind and not simply a dollar amount.
Lot of people have way more that what I (and probably you) would consider "fuck you" money yet never use it to say "fuck you".
And yeah, the Friday at 5pm I left my access card on my desk and emailed my boss a variant of the company's generic "this was <employee's> last day" email as I walked out the door felt pretty good even though I probably blacklisted myself from working in that industry ever again.
How can we make Disney die faster than it already is?
Report the cruise ships for norovirus?
Mock their movies for being pedo designed?
There are still stupid sons of bitches who will whine about how Elon loves the Jews on our side after something like this.
He did go and kiss the ring, for all that got him.
He just met with Netanyahu. It's all so tiresome.
thats what youtube should've done.. instead of letting advertisers DICTATE what should be on a platform. although, youtube probably wanted to dictate and used advertisers as an excuse.
Just wait until he has all those Starlink satellites he's been launching turn into orbital laser cannons.
Then they'll know the true meaning of fear!!
[they aren't really laser cannons]
The interviewer was completely stonewalled and stupified. Fucking brutal. Fuck off Bob, hope Disney dies.
Literally said GFY. Bob Iger in the audience in person no less.
I'm not Elon, I don't have fuck you money, but if I was in his position I would make the following proposal: If you stop advertising on Twitter because you cave to the pressure of the mob, that's fine, bye. If you ever want to advertise on my platform again I'll charge you double what you were charged before. That's the going rate for your principle and integrity.
Commence kvetching
