    “This guy got fired for being racist, but then a bunch of racists from a fascist website owned by me, a nazi, said he should be rehired, Sooooo…”

    Remember when he polled Twitter about whether or not he should stop being CEO and the majority said yes and he ignored it anyway?

    Now suddenly polls on Twitter matter?

    You mean he polled a number out of his ass. He doesn’t need to go through the effort of asking anyone to get an actionable result. The results from bots and racists would have been similar anyway.

    It doesn’t get much more Musk than, "I polled the racists and they said racism is okay, so racism is okay "

    You mean bots, right? Polling bots. Also this doesn’t account for all the people that have blocked you or don’t even use twitter anymore. It’s like if my friends all told me they didn’t like Chinese food and my conclusion is that nobody likes Chinese food.

    I polled myself. I say Musk is a Nazi who should be tossed in front of the nearest self-driving Tesla.

      I’m honestly not sure why Elon is going through this theater. The guy almost certainly didn’t lose that access when he “resigned.”

      Good chance he was pushed by someone with actual power because of his views on Israel and this is all about Musk showing all the racism the media is running with instead was fine.

      I remarked on that at the time.

      Edit: Mbin does something new with fediverse links that totally butchers how this is embedded in the text I intended. Not sure if it just looks like a sentence with some hyperlinked text to Lemmy users.
