"... in big letters stuck along a row of windows. 'They wrote PEACE on the wall at Berghain! I refused enter,' Musk claimed on Twitter. He later tweeted philosophically: 'Peace. Peace? I hate the word. Those who do care about peace (myself aspirationally included) don’t need to hear it. And those who don’t care about peace? Well…'"
From "Elon Musk joins fetish crowd on tour of Berlin clubs" (London Times).
Berghain is a nightclub in Berlin.
Looking that up, I stumbled upon some much more important news about Musk: "Elon Musk Takes 9.2% Stake in Twitter After Hinting at Shake-Up" (Bloomberg).

At what point will Musk be too politically heterodox for progs to keep buying Teslas?
I have actually been in Club Sisyphos. I'm not saying it was easy to get in, it was just easier to get into than Berghain, which is legendary for its exclusivity.
It wasn't all it was cracked up to be, but then again I've seen more shit than most people so it takes a higher-level of perversion to shock me. I vividly remember a woman with garishly large breasts - like serious FLBP breasts - who was topless and she had done horrific things to them. Tattoos, piercings, and what looked like metal studs placed on the skin al la bodymodded to hell etc. I remember thinking that there was nothing attractive to me at all about someone doing that to such large and voluptuous breasts, and I began thinking about what kind of man would find that attractive.
It's well known that the most vicious people in public debate are the ones waving "Love Trumps Hate" signs. The shittiest people on Twitter talk about love and kindness in their bio. Still, though, why take exception to the word itself?
GOOD. Maybe he will force them to reinstate Trump and everybody else the left is scared of.
You can't get "peace" by not fighting. Not fighting allows EurAsia to take over EVERYTHING
Only through a constant state of armed combat can we bring about a Real Peace
a PEACE where people do As They Are Told.
If people would just blindly OBEY wokeism; they would find their True Strength
Well, imagine if Twitter really became a free speech platform again--the free speech wing of the free speech party, as they briefly said.
Elon can.
They would have to replace 80% of the employees.
Gentlemen may cry, Peace, Peace-- but there is no peace.
There was a big rally in Berlin this weekend with Russian flags waving and many showing the Z symbol (which is a sign of support for Russia's war of aggression).
It would be very fun and interesting to see how things play out if Musk buys Twitter and eliminates it’s censorship of conservatives. Where does the left go?
Yeah...Musk is making a move to insert some influence on how Twitter is run. And that could portend a huge sea change in social media, but...we'll see how this plays out. It would be interesting to watch Twitter's stock price today to get the initial reaction of Wall Street and others. More interesting to watch this over the next few weeks. As I write this, Twitter is up 9.31 today (almost 24%).
Hmm...
Unlike the New York Times or Facebook, Twitter doesn't have special shares that have all the important voting rights. I think he can count on Jack, who now has the second largest block of shares, as an ally. Jack was pushed out and Twitter has become far worse.
It's kind of interesting that BlackRock is now the largest shareholder in the Times, just ahead of the Mexican Billionaire, after he sold half of his shares. Believe its stories accordingly.
Well Elon, get in there and clean out that corporate cesspool.
I would think Musk could get 30 buddies to buy up 1% interest, with the plan he would buy them out with the time was right.
To early to tell. Does Dorsey own controlling interest? It doesn't always take 50.1% All that has to happen is find enough like minded brethren.
They tried to get Madison Cawthorn to go, but he was having none of it.

They could probably fire 80% of the employees. How many people should it take to run a site like that?
’How many people should it take to run a site like that?’
Don’t know how many it should use, but they have about 6,000 employees. I’d guess the Department of Virtue Tweeting accounts for ten percent.
Musk must be buying Twitter because his handlers tried to stop him from tweeting.
When he wants to tweet he ought to ask himself a few times whether what he wants to say is something a normal person would say or something that only an billionaire with Asperger's would say.
I wish more people with Asperger's would tweet. If there were ever a moment when the culture needed more Asperger's, it's right now.
