My pet theory is that Musk acquired Twitter to destroy one of the most effective platforms for anyone on the left to organize.
That’s an awfully expensive political statement, even for Musk
Does it really matter if you have one billion or 200 billion?
Previously he could buy a company like Twitter on a whim. He’d probably have to think twice about doing that again, so there’s a noticeable loss of purchase power.
Then you see his solar company is gone, drilling never went anywhere, car company may be pinched.
At least what he spent to buy a seat in government was cheap (for him)
