    I'm glad you were able to recognize that twitter did worse than the market in general.

    Way to cherry pick the dates. Congrats. You must've learned that from the CDC. Good job.

    So a guy from South Africa who builds electric cars, put every penny he has into building rockets and supported Andrew yang buys Twitter and people are losing their minds. Just seems so bizarre.

    How many commit suicide once their parts are removed? Buyers remorse. It happens more than you know. Carry on

    So what happens when that bubble doesn’t protect them? What happens when they stop their dependence on you creating a bubble when all the assholes continually and easily undermined you?

    Your compassion is fantastic. The world can use more of it.

    I would imagine the same thing that happens for the rest of us, except they deal with it more often. My mother sometimes has to deal with a-holes. But I'm not going to be an a-hole to her to prepare her for it. I'm somebody she can go to in order to vent and feel safe.

    We all need persons like that in our lives. I can't imagine how miserable our lives would be if our friends and loved ones all treated us poorly to "prepare" us for the a-holes of the world. Life is meant to be enjoyed.

    Another dumb statement that does nothing to offer any evidence to prove the author’s point...

    I’m fact, what is your point? Are you trying to say that the suicide rate of those that have transitioned is high and therefore we should...?

    true. But have to keep in perspective- maga followers hate anything that supports the environment and we see desantis burning books and trying to silence critics.

    On both sides.

    Musk buying Twitter doesn’t tangibly effect 99.9% of people.
