A meme tweet by Sally Mayweather made a trend today on the short word social media platform, and it depicts Elon Musk and the Twitter verified profiles and accounts that react to his presence in the company. The group's concession said that the "spaceship man" is bad, referring to Musk's presence on Twitter.

Musk reacted to this picture, and it showed how much the CEO loved memes even though they portrayed him negatively and talked about how many people are hating on him in the present. The reaction is a winking and tongue-out emoji only, showing that the shareholder had a good laugh at what the meme said and did not take it negatively.

Twitter: What Is Happening Now?

Twitter got its board looking at a possible acquisition of the company and selling to Elon Musk at $54 per share, paying for it with his money as a sizeable investment. However, there were no plans that the board would make for Twitter's sale to Musk or other possible investors or billionaires that wanted to purchase it.

Musk said that the board would have an idea for other potential bidders apart from himself, stating that this concern might open their eyes to a possible future.

Elon Musk and Twitter

Some rumors talked about Musk aiming to purchase Twitter, and it got confirmation from the CEO when he explicitly asked about making the social media platform private. The move to make it a private company after its IPO and public outing several years ago border on the fact that Musk wants to focus more on free speech on social media.

Musk's position on Twitter is that he is a mere shareholder that owns a massive stake in the company, and this is because he rejected his induction to the platform's board members. The current happening on Twitter is about turning the platform into a social media owned by Musk and giving him control over it if the terms come his way.

There will be significant changes to Twitter upon Musk's arrival despite no purchases to make it a private would take place.

Elon Musk and Twitter already have a colorful history before the tech billionaire even joined its company as an enormous stakeholder in the past weeks. Since then, there has been a whirlwind of reactions and reception from the public regarding the new direction of Twitter. Musk made it clear that there will be significant changes, focusing on improving the platform.
