interesting, although % of stake ownership sort would be more informational than alphabetical order

So don't buy Fidelity funds. Got it.

Most people who use fidelity use it because their employer matches 401k investments into it... I'm honestly kind of amazed they haven't dissolved given the rise of better self directed retirement fund options.

People don't really want self directed funds.

One of the biggest ways employers have managed to get people to save properly for retirement was making it opt out and automatically ramping up the withdrawal rate over time. You still don't have to do so, but most people can't be bothered thinking about retirement in any way.

Defaults are a powerful thing.

Not in Europe. I too have owned Fidelity funds at one Point.

Seems incredibly irresponsible of them to include it in a blue chip fund.

Unless you're buying individual stocks, or investing in activist funds, you're going to be putting money towards some kind of shitbaggery.

True, but do you want to be putting your funds with a company that thinks Twitter is a sound investment?

That was already a given

A few names that may need translation:

  • ARK - Cathie Wood's fund, no surprises there
  • Kingdom Holdings - Saudi royals (along with Alwaleed Bin Talal)
  • Pershing Square - Bill Ackman's fund (guy who made headlines recently for getting university presidents fired for not shutting down Palestinian protesters
  • Q-Tetris Holding - Qatari fund, not sure how connected to royals it is
  • VYC25 - UAE fund, not sure how connected to royals it is
  • Scott Nolan - founders fund (Peter Thiel) guy
  • X holdings - Elon Musk's LLC for limiting his losses in this whole charade

Not an exhaustive list, didn't look up all the names.

Ha! I was looking for Peter Thiels name here. One of the roots of all evil.

Q-Tetris Holding - Qatari fund, not sure how connected to royals it is

Why Tetris of all things?

I read that too and wondered why a cool computer games name was in there.

Ok so how many of those names are foreign companies that have ties to enemies of the state? I am gonna guess 60% of them.

Musk has also managed to attract some royal attention for his endeavor, with HRH Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal Bin Abdulaziz Alsaud also featured on the list.

The Saudi prince has a net worth just shy of $19 billion, per Forbes, and also has holdings in the likes of luxury hotels the Four Seasons and the Savoy, as well as other technology firms like ride-sharing company Lyft.

I’m pretty sure an investment stake in Twitter is just considered bagholding at this point.

Q Tetris Holding LLC the fuck?!

I would, as the Tetris Company, sue those fuckers out of the world!

I would watch that Youtube video where every entity in this list is given a short 5 Minute presentation, who they are and what they stand for. I bet it is a can of worms.

  • ADREM X LLC
  • ADREM Y LLC

watch out, it's about to split into x.com and y.com

The Twitter cofounder previously backed the Tesla CEO in his takeover of the company but walked back his support earlier this year, telling a member on rival social media platform Bluesky, "It all went south.”

Did it Jack? You got to unload a limping dog for top dollar.

Most definitely. With the offer that Elon gave the only correct answer was accept it. For himself and stockholders.

To be fair, Twitter' was always fueled by drama, and if nothing else, Musky sure has been sure to keep that tank full.

Twitter was actually dying before hand because it was completely irrelevant echo chamber. It survives because its now also a complexity irrelevant echo chamber, however, this time with popcorn worth drama.

If you are any where even remotely close to the political left and are still on that platform "clapping back" at idiots, you are part of the problem and giving Musk power.

This. One billion times. People act like they are doing cultural guerrilla, but they are just feeding the algorithms.

Twitter is still a major source of information, a lot of media and news agencies refer to what is posted there. Calling it an irrelevant echo chamber is incorrect. For a lot of journalists, analysts, scientists, and experts in virtually every field Twitter is the main platform and it is the only way to follow them. I don't know why people ignore that fact. Perhaps, due to ignorance.

Yeah Jack sure didn't turn out to be the visionary I thought he was. Just another scummy tech bro.

Seriously. Why not just enjoy looking at the check and fade into the background

I mean, the dog didn't limp much before Elon shot it three times and kicked it down the stairs.

Previously, high-profile investors like Fidelity have been connected with X, most notably because the investment vehicle's filings implied a 72% drop in the company's value since Musk took it over.

Let it fucking burn.

Puff Daddy?!?!? Ew GROSS! One more piece of bile for the cesspool that is twitter

I don't see what's interesting about this information. we all knew that he put investors together to raise the money. it's a normal thing to do I think. I don't know anything about business.

It does confirm the long-standing rumors that the Saudi royal family is now invested in Twitter.

And the fact that P. Diddy is part of this mess is surprising and slightly amusing.

Elon Musk calling himself trustee of his own trust is mildly amusing too.

Gerber Kawasaki surprised me. I would never have expected the baby food -> risk-taking adult ride connection! ::: spoiler spoiler /s I know it's an investment company name. :::

Yet another error message with upvotes. Obvious astroturfing and manufactured consent.

All other issues aside… if it fails, why does it bother to post at all?

Not sure if it's a rhetorical question, but I'll answer anyway.

That's often when it is most useful. It alerts people that it may be an unknown, new, or fringe source. You don't see them often because the bot helps people report remove them quickly.

Yes, but it would be better to note the domain age, the estimated hit count, and/or inbound link quantity instead of an error message.

That would help people notice the difference between Yahoo.com and MyConservativeBlog.com

Thanks, I've shared this with the mod team

Thanks! Basically the term you’re looking for is related to “domain authority”, and there are several metrics that go into calculating it.

Because one of the mods programmed the bot and is really proud of their accomplishment. Their ego has blinded them to the problems they are causing.

I agree that it’s good to be proud of your programming accomplishments. I also think it’s really fucked to abuse positions of power and ignore community input.

Here’s the thread discussing the issue.

Do we know which of the mods is involved? Obivously someone is but in that linked thread one of the mods claims that none of the mods are involved.
