After earning himself a spot as the biggest shareholder and investor of Twitter, billionaire entrepreneur and Tesla owner Elon Musk decided that it was high time to raise the stakes.
Musk first announced his offer to purchase full rights to the microblogging and social networking service on April 14. After two weeks of negotiation under pressure, Twitter has reportedly accepted the $44 billion US Dollar deal.
Typical Twitter users were not the only people to have a say on the matter. Minecraft star and YouTuber Dream joked about the billionaire being an "idiot" for buying the social media app. Fellow YouTuber George "Memeulous" felt the same way, poking fun at the joke that there was no point in buying the app since it's "free."
Other Minecraft streamers jumped straight into the jokes as well. Popular YouTuber Alex "Quackity" tweeted on his alt account about the billionaire now having ban hammer rights towards their own fandom.
It's a running gag in the community that Minecraft 'stans' are generally disliked amongst the Twittersphere, so the YouTuber was probably running that joke for clout points.
Other streamers and content creators were pretty split in their opinions towards the Tesla CEO's final decision to buy out Twitter.
