Transcription of Reddit post by /u/FraudCatcher5:
Oh man... this is a dousy. I don't even know where to start? Again, this is ALLEGED. I AM NOT ACCUSING ANYONE OR ANYTHING. THIS IS A LEAK.
4chan got hacked recently. Mod data leaked. Everything leaked. Apparently mods had full access to userdata and there was no real anonymity.
In the midst of it all, Elon Musk's alleged account shows up. He calls himself The Antichrist, and the things he is saying is giving me cold sweats.
I AM NOT CLAIMING THIS IS ELON MUSK. THE INTERNET IS CLAMING ITS ALLEGEDLY ELON MUSK, AND THE MORE YOU READ IT, THE MORE DANGEROUS IT FEELS.
I summarized everything using ChatGPT cause it's HUGE. Again... this is Alleged!

The president ordered staffers to “make sure” his billionaire ally didn’t attend, an official said.
Fitting for a CEO who loves to play martyr.
Seeing that Tesla got hit with the death cross might provide a little thrill in a Tim Walz laughing at Tesla’s declining stock price kinda way. But I have to be honest, as someone who is not fully immersed in the financial markets, the chart pattern reading kinda strikes me as astrology for guys in suits. Like, because the line displays a pendant shape, that means it’s primed to break out? What does that even mean? You might as well say it’s a good time to buy because Mercury is in retrograde.
Anyway, analysts apparently don’t think death crosses are as reliable of an indicator as they are sometimes described by chart readers. According to Reuters, about half the time that a death cross appears, it marks the worst point for the index rather than a harbinger of a steeper decline. Regardless, it’s probably fine to taunt Tesla-maxxers with this news if you want an easy laugh.

Some of the preferences are surprising for the CEO of Tesla, a company dedicated to sustainability. Apparently Musk isn’t “interested in conserving fuel” because he “wants to fly as quickly and as direct” as possible.
Surprising? It's 100% expected behavior from the richest asshole in the world
Social media platform formerly known as Twitter says 66.3% revenue drop was down to fall in advertising income
cross-posted from: https://feddit.uk/post/27576125
X’s revenues and profits collapsed in the UK in the year after Elon Musk took over the social media platform, the company has admitted.
A decline in advertising spending amid concerns about “brand safety and/or content moderation” were cited as the reason for the fall, according to accounts filed this week to Companies House.
Twitter UK Ltd also narrowly averted being struck off last month for failing to file the accounts on time, according to other recent filings to Companies House. It only filed full accounts on Monday for 2023, the year in which it was rebranded as X after Musk’s takeover.

Its overall revenue totalled £69.1m, down from £205.3m in 2022, a decrease of 66.3% year-on-year. The profit for 2023 dropped from £5.6m the previous year to £1.2m. Pre-tax profits were 74% lower at £2.25 million. This was a “significant decrease in the performance of the company”, it said.

Sabotaging the agency’s work amounts to an inducement for the ultra-rich to treat taxes as a voluntary contribution.
The Internal Revenue Service may be America’s least-loved government agency, but it is one of the most important. Without the taxes the IRS collects, the United States would essentially have no funds for key services and no creditworthiness, and the nation would rapidly grind to a halt. Ensuring that everyone pays their fair share is also a key component of the social contract: If the wealthiest can skip their obligations, that weakens any shared commitment to the common good. No one loves paying taxes, but the IRS does give taxpayers good value: For every dollar spent by the agency, it generates at least $5, and possibly as much as $12; in addition, every hour devoted to auditing the very wealthy produces a return of $13,000.

A new report shows that DOGE’s assault on federal employees and contracts isn’t reducing federal spending at all.

In theory, the experts at the Elon Musk–helmed Department of Government Efficiency are reviewing federal-government operations and getting rid of “waste, fraud, and abuse,” along with any policies inconsistent with Donald Trump’s directives, in order to reduce federal budget deficits and public borrowing. By now, it’s clear there isn’t much actual “reviewing” going on. Instead, DOGE is following the [Silicon Valley model of “moving fast and breaking things,”](https://nymag.
