Elon Musk Will Make A Whole New Phone If Apple And Google Block Twitter
You’d think that after a month of playing with a new toy that spoiled billionaire Elon Musk would have gotten bored and moved on to something else to waste his time on. Maybe “manage” his two other businesses? Nah! The man who proved that money can’t buy you cool is still wiling his time away on Twitter, hoping that Nathan Fielder will see it and become his best friend. Shockingly, the only people Elon is managing to befriend throughout this fiasco are far right-winger messes. And due to the increase in hate speech and ugly content, some users believe that this might lead to Twitter being kicked off of Google and Apple’s app stores. But the meme-stealing CEO has a plan for that eventuality: he’ll make his own phone! Please, Elon, stop “fixing” things and go hang out with your kids or something!
Elon used a Twitter poll – his favorite tool for making major business decisions – to ask the audience if suspended accounts should be let back onto the site. He already let Donald Trump (who has yet to tweet lol) back onto the site, why not open the floodgates? Even before Elon, Twitter was not known for being great at moderating content, so to be kicked off the site meant you were responsible for some pretty nasty content. Surprising no one, Elon’s bots the people voted “yes” and Elon announced this by using the only phrase in Latin he knows because he saw it on Reddit once.
The people have spoken.
Amnesty begins next week.
Vox Populi, Vox Dei.

With the potential return of hostile accounts, it’s not too far-fetched to think that Apple and Google might grow tired of Elon’s shit and block Twitter. After being alerted to the rumor, Musk came up with his brilliant plan that would probably go over as well as Twitter Blue. via Gizmodo:
On Friday, Musk was at it again, telling people that he may make an alternative phone to face off against Apple and Google.
The tech billionaire’s comments were made, naturally, in response to a tweet directed at him by conservative podcaster and former OANN host Liz Wheeler. On Friday afternoon, Wheeler tweeted that Musk should make his own phone if Apple and Google decide to kick Twitter off their app stores. Twitter’s future in Apple and Google’s app stores has been a hot topic lately, given Musk’s commitment to “free speech”—as long as it doesn’t offend him—and lax content moderation.
Three hours later, Musk told Wheeler that he would build his own phone if Twitter got banned from Apple and Google’s app stores, the official gateways to iPhone and Android devices across the globe. In what might have been an homage to Musk, who loves polling people on Twitter, Wheeler had started a poll of her own asking people if they would use a “tELONphone.”
I certainly hope it does not come to that, but, yes, if there is no other choice, I will make an alternative phone

He was forced to buy Twitter because he couldn’t keep his mouth shut and now might make a whole new telephone because he’s running the site so terribly? The man doesn’t know when to take the L! With all the stories of Teslas experiencing spontaneous combustion, I would advise anyone considering buying an Elon phone to purchase some additional fire insurance. Either that or just keep your 5-year-old Samsung!
