A man who has declared himself to be a time traveller claims that he previously predicted that Elon Musk would take charge of Twitter. The TikTok user, who refers to themselves as Time Traveller 3000, claimed that the predictions he made months ago about Musk's takeover coming true proves he is the from the future, the Mirror reports.
His alleged predictions also delved deeper into his prophecies, as he claims he also said that Musk would unban Donald Trump from the popular social media platform and that Musk would resign from his role of CEO of Tesla.
In the clip, they claimed: "To prove that I am a time traveller I will tell you what happens to Elon Musk. As I predicted months ago, Elon would buy Twitter and then unban Donald Trump. This will upset many people so Elon will step down as CEO of Tesla and then become CEO of Twitter."
However, despite his 12,000 TikTok followers, social media users were not falling for his claims. One said: "That was easily predicted."
Another added: "If you came back from the year 3000 how would you know something so insignificant that happened 1000 years ago?" A third commented: "By the time anything may or may not happen, you would be looong forgotten."
Musk who is the richest man in the world, with a net worth of $203billion, recently carried out a worldwide elimination of his Twitter employees without warning, just days after his £38billion takeover.
Emails were sent out to thousands of workers informing them that they'd been let go, as the new CEO of Twitter fired half of the website's workforce, leaving an estimated 3,700 employees without a job. Some British staff awoke to discover that their access to company systems had been revoked and that their devices had been ''remotely wiped''.
They received an uncourteous memo informing them to go home if they were planning on going into work as their passes would not be accepted. Union bosses have been left fuming and are pushing for the Government to remind Musk that “no one is above the law”.
Tech worker's union Prospect compared the worldwide sacking of employees to the ferry giant P&O who also controversially dismissed hundreds of their staff this year. General secretary Mike Clancy said: “Twitter is treating its people appallingly.”
He labelled the company “a digital P&O” and insisted “Big Tech barons” are still legally expected to comply with employment laws. Twitter issued staff with a memo on Thursday night to let them know they would receive an email the following day about whether or not they were being kept on as an employee but many already knew their fate before this as they had been blocked from accessing their work emails.
Chris Younie tweeted: “Well this isn’t looking promising. Can’t log into emails. Mac won’t turn on. But so grateful this is happening at 3am. Really appreciate the thoughtfulness on the timing front.”
