Stop worshipping billionaires.

Elon Musk threw away tens of billions of dollars to buy Twitter, and has spent the last year running it into the ground.

When billionaires take control of our most vital platforms for communication, it’s not a win for free speech.

It’s a win for oligarchy.

@rbreich it feels intentional.
@NiaMolinari @rbreich Yep. Running it into the ground is entirely the point.
@HellQuacker @NiaMolinari @rbreich genuine question but why would he want to run it into the ground after spending $44 billion? That seems like a lot of money to spend, even with his wealth.

@Gashnor @NiaMolinari @rbreich I think his concept of the value of money leaves something to be desired; he was born a rich kid, and had everything handed to him.

Also, he may consider it to be money well spent if it lets him be a troll to his heart's (obvious) content. "Making libs cry while I LOL" is clearly on his personal wish list, and he's clearly not above killing the bird site if those he opposes suffer in the process.
