And here you are making him more relevant. If people ignore twitter, it fucking dies.
What makes you think talking about him on Lemmy will have any effect on Twitter? Most of us aren't even on Twitter.
Things that are only relevant, because they are relevant, are not actually relevant. It's fluff dressed in a suite.
Like they say, fashion is only fashionable because others thinks others thinks it's fashionable.
As long as everyone keeps talking about Musk all over the place, he'll keep coming out at top.
He’s so wealthy he could personally go to your neighborhood and “Mansa Musa” your place into inflation. He could just drop $10,000,000 per person to get up and leave whatever square mile surrounding your residence right now.
Assuming avg population density for a city in the US that’s only $2.8billion (~280 ppl/mile in cities). Not even a scratch to his total net worth.
A single person with that much wealth and power doesn’t require any attention to retain it. He’ll keep coming out on top because it’s nearly impossible not to when you reach a large enough number.
he doesn't actually have his wealth. it's estimated stock value; which would cascade to nothing the minute he tries to extract it. all he can do is borrow with stock as leverage; which would net him a lot of money sure; but there is no way they would approve billions in a loan unless he is very very specific on the investment goal.
