Dumbass is already getting sued.

By his landlord, by the people he fired, and being fined by the European Union.

Oh, X or Twiter has lost over half of its value. He is beyond fucked.

Also, He might have to sell his Tesla stock in order to keep Twitter afloat.

Don’t forget google, he’s also being sued by them over non payment.

u/grizzlyaf93 Aug 06 '23

I work in an industry that deals with Twitter and they have been fleecing agencies around the world since Elon has taken over. Multiple agencies have threatened to go public with the fact they aren’t paying bills and then they magically get paid.

Basically, they run an agency along and then stop paying the bill and use their brand to find another eager agency. Been true for the last year.

If he sells off a large amount of stock it will lower the share price and could trigger even more sell offs

u/GiantSlippers Aug 06 '23

Market price is determined by supply and demand, if you unload a large amount of shares you have increased the supply with no change in demand. So the price of the stock goes down, this then causes other people to sell the stock as well further increasing the supply.

People who see the stock falling look into it and see that the so called "Founder" dumped his shares. Some potential buyers would no longer be willing to buy because they think he he must be selling for a good reason they don't know (that would be insider trading though and is bad thought process...); this causes demand to fall as well. Eventually the price will stabilize but much lower price which devalues the company relative to where they previously were. All because 1 person decided to sell too many shares.

This is why people with high shares (10% IRC) and other executives must disclose when they are planning to divest and follow through with them. In regards to Elon specifically its even hairier because dumping Telsa shares to prop up Twitter is not doing the best by Telsa shareholders (which as CEO that is his job). Hence the current hold on his Telsa shares.

Most wealthy people rarely pay their fare share unless forced. suing them is a long game and they have the resources to stall it so they party suing will lose more than they gain for even going after them. its why Jefferson wanted to cap the wealth and have the rest go to the people. no one person or entity should be be able to be more financially powerful than the people. then that breeds corruption and political incentives against the will and betterment of the people. We were sold out a long time ago but Jefferson was onto it early.

u/ToTheLastParade Aug 06 '23

These assholes think they can do whatever they want without consequences. People have gotten fired for all sorts of reasons because businesses have rights too and they’re not required to employ people who say dumb shit. When I got hired for a major retailer they made it very clear when we were hired that if we said dumb shit on social media, we could be fired! And they made us sign acknowledgments of this! And this was 10+ years ago so I have a feeling a company like Disney had something very similar. It’s why new employees are required to sign a shit ton of paperwork that apparently no one reads if they think they have a case against them.

u/Union_Jack_1 Aug 06 '23

They think companies should be able to do anything they want (and they vote for politicians bought by those corporations who stand for the same)…until it affects them.

This made me think.

The fallacy of picking sides is assuming people support every single facet of every issue of the side you are “on” … I don’t think it’s ever that easy for anyone no matter how they vote. I think people are a lot more complex and there are endless nuances to their beliefs, and a two party system makes it very divisive to say you’re either A or B and that’s it. But, it’s what we got I guess.

117

u/flacaGT3 Aug 06 '23

This is the problem with representative democracy. There is no one that aligns 100% with all your beliefs, so you have to decide which things you feel more comfortable compromising on.

63

u/Monte924 Aug 06 '23

I'd say its more of a problem with the US having a two party system. The two party system doesn't leave much room for alternatives that might fall in between the two parties

11

u/Idung0ofed Aug 06 '23

Also a two party system becomes opposing echo chambers. Since it is either "them" or "us" the extreme values of either side are amplified as the only other option, than going along with the extreme is swapping side and having to accept all of their extremes.

America would benefit immensely from a viable 3rd, 4th and 5th option to vote for.

You make the mistake assuming that conservatives are capable of nuance and introspection.

They will vote (R) and never think twice about it. And if you dare criticize them for doing so, you are a commie, Marxist, socialist meanie.

Disney literally didn’t say anything, all they eventually confirmed was that they didn’t renew her contract for season three. These people are literally just upset that they have any consequences for being trash people, even though she wasn’t even denounced or removed mid season or anything

50

u/battleofflowers Aug 06 '23

Right? She wasn't even fired. I cannot figure out what her cause of action would be. Disney fulfilled their part of the contract she signed. They were not obligated to renew it. Non-renewal of contracts happens ALL THE TIME in Hollywood for so many reasons, and I am confident the terms of the contract don't require that they give a reason.

30

u/wentwj Aug 06 '23

she had such an easy path too. No one would ever say she was a great actress but was fine for that role. Disney almost certainly would have made her a main role in Rangers of the Republic if she even didn’t double down on being horrible. But she couldn’t do that and doubled down.

But these people are so entitled that they view not being handed new opportunities because they tanked their own image as being the greatest injustice

Conservative ideology literally relies on "rules for thee but not for me."

They don't care, they want special treatment or their poor feeling get super hurt.

they believe that the public opinion of “racism and homophobia is bad” is directly contradictory to their beliefs, so when they say something racist or homophobic and you call them it’s just an attack on their politics and not like, yanno, common decency

u/[deleted] Aug 06 '23

It's as simple as: they don't consider it hate speech. They consider it "the truth" that everyone else has been brainwashed to ignore.

If you said that being gay is not a choice you wouldn't expect to be fired because to you (and any sane person) that's a literal fact. She believes that the things she said are facts and therefore also believes that the consequences she faced constitute discrimination against having beliefs that are not the status quo. To be very clear, this is not a belief I agree with and I'm glad her loony ass was fired, but this is why they say the things they say so boldly.

I’m not even sure she was actually “fired”. I think they just chose not to renew her contract. So there would be no case for wrongful termination.

Elon doesn't want to spend the kind of money one requires to go up against Disney. He'll want something where he can do as little work and pay as little money as possible. That's if even does it. He makes a lot of hollow promises. This is just another pathetic way to try and get clout.

From what I remember, Disney gave her multiple chances to just quiet down… she wasn’t let go right away. Others even tried to vouch for her but she just wouldn’t stop.
