Kudos, @ezraklein on the smartest take yet on the Twitter takeover by @elonmusk. There are dozens of ways this could play out. Some bad, some genuinely hopeful. "Betting against Musk has made fools of many..." nytimes.com/2022/04/27/opi…
@TEDchris @ezraklein @elonmusk Kudos indeed for some pretty balanced and moderate take unlike the screaming on Twitter.
@TEDchris @ezraklein @elonmusk A very naive take, I’m disappointed – He seems blinded by the bling "I admire Elon because he got the trains to run on time” I think I’ll stay w @AnandWrites
@TEDchris @ezraklein @elonmusk Excellent article. Big thanks for sharing 👍👍👍👍
@TEDchris @JonHaidt @ezraklein @elonmusk Behind a paywall, unfortunately.
@TEDchris @ezraklein @elonmusk Reflexivity! A perfect example in Musk on Twitter - see how that supercharges older forms of reflexivity in Understanding Social Media: An Increasingly Reflexive Extension of Humanity, in @techpolicypress with @MChrisRiley: techpolicy.press/understanding-…
@TEDchris @ezraklein @elonmusk I read this after the very poorly written TIME article. It’s ok but misses the bigger picture. Elon’s a sophisticated philanthropist that strives to transform frontiers that humanity has gotten used to. He holds an unparalleled records of achievement and deserves a chance.
@TEDchris @ezraklein @elonmusk Kinda reminds me of this guy…
@TEDchris @JonHaidt @ezraklein @elonmusk Last few paragraphs got that colored NYTimes. DC journalists, long time counts for something, swaying the most rational journalistic ‘pros’. World in flames barely tugs on “socio-metric” cultural subgroups like tribe, fraternity, sorority, any “belief grouping”.
@TEDchris @ezraklein @elonmusk I wouldn’t get too ahead of yourself, the deal isn’t closed until I receive my two and a half billion dollar odd cheque, and then my 4.5bn$ odd dollar cheque for the annual license to operate… I have not received any cheque. I’ll keep you posted.
