Once again you go ad hominem rather than address the points made.
You're the idiot here, not me. At least you're funny, though.
Your point was already discredited. That you keep trying to act like it wasn't is just more evidence of your problem.

You guys are missing the point. Typically, Mike was attempting to steer this argument into one of his tangents to avoid the main subject.
Now, let’s debate the differences, obligations and advantages between ownership and stewardship. Proceed.

Stewardship is irrelevant to this discussion. Moving along...

However, I have to give Mike credit because my post achieved his other goal; making the thread about him.
Good job, Mike!
Good job, Mike!

Ok.. We need to have a topic on this section of the forum and name it Mikey. And it needs to be pinned..
That way, we can keep all his garbage in one thead, and we (meaning me, or anyone else who wants to participate) can visit time to time and drop a couple of A-Bombs without the worry of collateral damage and throwing the discussion off track..
It would be a great thread for mental health.. Better than a therapy dog!!
Nice big target!!

FSG made the thread about me when he said my head was pointed. Up to that point it was about Elon Musk owning Twitter.

Stewardship will suddenly be very relevant if Twitter goes bankrupt and BofA gets paid back pennies on the dollar...

It's likely a consortium of banks sharing risk, not just BofA.

Does that change the point I'm making? Or are you being pedantic?

The entire point you're making, in the context of this thread and Elon Musk owning or "owning" Twitter, is pedantic. I'm just making a factual statement as I get dumber reading this stupid argument.

The question of ownership or stewardship is a deep question of worldview.
But the number of banks that are along for this ride is pedantic when the point is, Musk isn't in this alone. Regardless of if one or two or ten commercial banks are in this with him, the plays he is making affect the fortunes of at least a few others. Even if you think its possible for a mortal to truly be an unaccountable owner, here Musk is a steward.

So… post #239 on page 11 or 12 is what made it about you?

Yup, but #212 was also about me. Notice neither post is by me. I don't actually like to talk about myself.

Which other posts were about you?
That's really it. The thread is like 99% not about me. It's like 10% people disagreeing with me, which is fine, and 90% I'm not even there. It's actually been a good thread.

I was going to get to the math, actually. It’s actually 99.2%. So it’s not about you then? Carry on.

The question of ownership versus stewardship may be deep for you, but it's fairly simple for the rest of us.
There are clear and distinct differences between the two, with varying legal and fiduciary responsibilities. For the purposes of this discussion (and so many others), perhaps it would be best if you just accepted the definitions recognized by everyone else on the planet.
