The whole idea of the town square is that it belongs to the town. No one should be able to buy it. And honestly, they can’t.

Twitter isn’t really the town square, any more than Facebook is or MySpace was.

We are the town square. It goes where we go. No one can buy that.

If he understood the principle you're talking about, he would have worked with existing Twitter management and joined the board like they'd talked about, and tried to make genuine improvements rather than as a now clearly hostile takeover.
