Musk bought Twitter, what hasn't gone wrong?

Why on hell would you give 56B to someone who runs a money losing business ?

The compensation package is from Tesla not Twitter.

From Tesla's shareholder's perspective the company's valuation has increased by x20 and more than $1T since 2018 when the package was initially proposed.

From what I understand shareholders overwhelming voted to approve it, and retail shareholders as well at a higher proportion than insitutional so it wasn't a case of insitutions overriding smaller retail shareholders. From what I understand shareholders also they rejected other proposals by the board, so it's hard to really say they were forced by or coerced by the board to vote in favor.

Also the $56b number is a bit misleading because from what I understand it was a fixed stock option offering of 304m shares proposed in 2018 when Tesla's stock price was much lower.

For the record I am not a direct Tesla shareholder (although I have broad ETFs/Funds that hold Tesla).

Indeed.
The law is rather unfair and judges know this, the richer you are the more you can win, you can use it to hamstring your opponents and burn their cash and money.

Musk complains about this shit, but he wields the law to tear up his opponents too. With unlimited cash, he can do this forever. You can see this with what he is doing against OpenAI. He’s trying to ensure that they can never make $$ as a non profit. But they need more funding to continue developing, as the capital costs are just insane. He’s got them tied up while he tries to catch up with xAI

She, doesn’t let people be above the law, and he cannot remove her (though, since joining with Trump he may be able to). What is more likely to happen is that he moves his court case to Texas where he has support instead of Delaware, where she resides. Another judge will rule in his favour there likely.

When you’ve got unlimited funds, you hire the best, you get the best options, you are always likely to win. That’s why only the poorer lose in this system.
 
I got locked out of my account. LOL. It's a lame platform anyway.

The DM system (when it works) isn't that good, as the sentence you compose is on the one line, and just feels awkward to write. But I think a lot of users deliberately disallow private messaging.

I don't think very highly of X and Facebook anyway. I think it's just to annoy you with spam and parasite off your provided data.
