Check out Musk at the B20 conference in Bali. Went concurrently with the G20. A big international Tech Summit. Very large. Musk piped in remotely and is a giant floating head on their megatron tv screen.

And is stoned AF.

Governments will legalize drugs, but still hold being stoned against someone like Musk.

Musk's only crime is asking Twitter workers to actually work and to not persecute conservatives.

I can imagine a job at Twitter as being a rather cush job, All the hard work was done 5 or 10 years ago, Now it is maintenance a few minor projects . But the workers get the cachet that they are actually creating the cutting edge. They are not unless you count fascism.

disembodied and either stoned or tired or both.
He mentions working "all the time, from morning til night--not something I would reccomend, by the way," so that may be a lot of it who knows.

Actually wrong. He's laid of twitter staff across continents in different countries and in some cases (not always), breaking employment law in those countries by not following due process. I'm sure the EU doesn't care about that, they probably do just want to mouth off at him concerning censoring. Which is ironic considering he's sacked his own employees (twitter and tesla) for free speech criticism.

Twitter is still up and running. Just how much featherbedding was going on at Twitter?

Many of those people at Twitter were not fist class programmers, but rank and file Leftists, who policed any thought that was not Leftist.

Does this look like porn to YOU? Space photographer and astronomer are both locked out of their Twitter accounts after their photos are mistakenly flagged as 'intimate'

A lot of the Twitter employees are dumber than a box of rocks. Good riddance!
