What, would taking the company private be illegal? Wouldn't he just need a vote on it in the company and then a major stock buyout?

retweeted

disgusting tactics the left is using

I DEMAND A HEARING AND FBI INVESTIGATE THESE FUCKS

@Malt_Hitman manipulating stock prices via lying

over a tweet ?

thats nuts

basically his tweet potentially lead short sells to suffer monetary loss because he "lied", which makes it fraud

that sucks

sounds more like short sellers, who have been losing constantly, are pissed

id say its a hitjob on elon

soros is funding this hit job

its in part that, the other part is there are very strict laws about stocks because it is so easy to basically steal peoples money

the media have a hard on for musk

the key problem is that musk didn't have much if anything of a secure or close to secure path for funding taking it private

which means the tweet was baseless and potential a fraud. i think the only thing saving him is that he used the word "considering", rather than saying "i am"

also the SEC apparently tried to settle things without a lawsuit but musk refused

So this is how musk gets done in, with self destructive shitposting...

That's what I focused on specifically "I'm considering" doesn't mean "I will do"

i think musk could fend off the lawsuit with that fact

but i don't think the lawsuit is anything about law

If he can't the law is honestly fucked

musk is also getting sued for calling that diver a pedo ...

On the flip side, if he loses this case, Twitter is also fucked

also for smoking weed in public on joe rogan

it smells of pissed off short-sellers and power hungry SEC officials looking to hurt someone who has been flaunting him untouchability in their face

If you can get fucked over a single tweet lol

the smoking weed one might be bs

How is Twitter fucked?

What company is going to want to stick around

>musk gets turbo fucked over a single tweet
>oh gee, why do we have a twitter? This is a massive legal liability

>all it takes is one guy saying some dumb shit and now it's fraud

good point

but i doubt that

It really takes the boss to say some dumb shit.

this ^

but

I'm fairly sure plenty of bosses already say dumb shit on twitter

If it's just one employee the company will just say that it was a, "rouge employee acting on their own initiative" and they'll get thrown under the bus.

i don't understand the diver thing
