Does anyone else consider it plausible that flushing $44 billion is worth the cost if it removes that meddlesome social media platform that activists rely on to syndicate human rights abuses and document all the other terrible stuff that happens around the world?
There's something way sketch about this entire narrative
I don't consider that plausible. I think must didn't really want to buy Twitter but fucked up and was forced to.
I think sabotage was his intent all along
Except that seems exceptionally stupid, why in the world would he waste that much money to take down a platform that can and is already being replaced by competitors?
I think y'all are conspiracy crazy
I'm far from conspiracy land lol, just speculating
