  1.  @JohnDoe-sd7un  That's precisely what the lawsuit is about.

  2. The timeline and the allegations made in court and in court papers are evidence which may be used to make informed conjectures.

  3. Musk has a history of SEC problems, including a pending case.

  4.  @ninefire6330  No knowledge claim was made. Of course not. Well. Anyway.

  5.  @ninefire6330  Neuralink has been cited for primate torture. You are correct, no zebras were involved.

  6.  @ninefire6330  People can use patterns of behavior in the past for which there is solid evidence to make conjectures about present intentions. Musk HAS BEEN (and IS -- i.e., he has a case pending) at odds with the SEC concerning stock price manipulation. You believe this speculation is too farfetched -- it's too different from prior conduct. Okay. That's not "zero evidence." If you can't follow logic, you think it's a "word salad?" You have other problems than to defend billionaires. Get busy and read.

  7.  @ninefire6330  Another American who needs help. I'm shocked, I tell you, shocked, SHOCKED!

  8.  @ninefire6330  Oh I see. You've never read a court case! You don't know how to find a complaint or a court document, and you are confused by them when you see them. Goodness . . . You should have said so. It's no big deal. Your friends online can teach you. Everyone has a first time.

  9. Who's "they?"

  10. You can download the 241 page verified complaint for yourself. I just did.

  11. Then you should read the complaint.

  12.  @rh81454  There are contractual obligations you freely enter into, and ways to block specific performance when you don't want to perform the contract. And sometimes those ways don't apply, and you're kept to your promise.

  13.  @khamkham7134  Did you read the verified complaint? It's all available to download.

  14. Have you ever heard of contempt of court? People go to jail for deliberately disobeying court orders.

  15.  @rh81454  "Promise" is used as a term of art in contract law. Sorry, forgot my audience.
    1
  16.  @khamkham7134  The verified complaint has a copy of the actual contract attached, which is, of course, required. It's all available online, in less than a minute to download.

  17.  @khamkham7134  Re: if the 5% claim is in other materials Your latest post, unlike your previous one, tends to show, pace Musk, that a trial is needed to establish material facts.

  18.  @khamkham7134  How would that be determined, except in court? There are all kinds of ways you can withdraw from a contract, and good reasons for declining to be bound by it, one of which involves proving up that you were actively misled when you agreed to it. In court.

  19.  @khamkham7134  Look up the complaint. Delaware.

  20. THIS!

  22. No. He's a con man.

  23.  @GabrielVelasco  You said financial genius. He claims he engineered those things. If he holds the patents, fine. I'm not suggesting he didn't. I'm saying I do not assume one way or the other based solely on his representations, without corroborating evidence.

  24.  @GabrielVelasco  Tesla is also facing one of the worst discrimination suits ever brought. Neuralink is also facing a complaint for primate torture, which is illegal. Musk himself is being sued by the SEC. I can document those assertions.
    1
  25.  @GabrielVelasco  So, with all these things on his plate, plus his very young children by several women, why is he involved in this suit? Doesn't that seem like a bad idea? I mean, with all these serious and important breakthroughs he is shepherding . . . I still remember when serious people were . . . serious. They wouldn't have time to tweet, much less . . .

  26. If he's thought through it all, then it must be a condition precedent spelled out in the actual, you know, contract.
    1
  27. The actual contracts and the timeline are what real courts look at. Did Musk, who can afford lawyers, make revealing these statistics a condition precedent?

  28. When it said Musk's lawsuit, I wondered which one.
    1
  29. Depends on what the contract says. This isn't a game of schoolyard pick up.
    1
  30.  @kinghenry238  Is that in the contract?
    1
  31.  @kazekagekid  Your conjecture is theoretically possible, but requires a trial. Musk can't just say "fraud!!" He might be right, but if that's what happened, it's HIS burden to prove it to the satisfaction of the court. "Fraud" is not a magic word. P. S. This is true even if Twitter has the initial burden of proof and the ultimate burden of persuasion. Affirmative defenses can't just be asserted with no evidence.

  32. Someone should take a hard look at Musk's run-ins with the SEC.
    1
  33. What do you think most of what happens in courts today consists of? Divorce? Criminal trials? No, it's the ultra rich suing each other, and either SEC or FTC regulations are implicated, in addition to, you know, CONTRACTS.

  34. Thank you.
