Imagine if Elon was playing a long con game and is actually trying to kill Twitter on purpose by disguising himself as the rest of the Republicans in support of them.
Like this "10 dimensional chess" game is him actually just doing the most mundane and simple changes to kill the platform intentionally.
I can imagine it, buuut... Never attribute to malice (or intelligence) what can be explained by incompetence.
Indeed. And consider - if you're a right wing loon, what does killing twitter really do? Especially what does twitter do that it's worth blowing 44 billies to kill it?
Considering that Saudi Arabia still holds enormous amounts of money in Twitter, and twitter was how the Arab Spring and other movements spread, it certainly looks like it's a deliberate crashing of the platform.
There's no way they could've convinced Elon to look like an idiot though to take it down.
This isn't likely, though. First there's the question of why kill Twitter? Then there's the $44 billion cost, and all the reputational damage. Nah, he's just arrogant and incompetent.
He took it private, why would be need to play 10 dimensional chess with himself? He can just close it and sell the IP.
