How are you defining worth? It’s value was probably in the 20Bs and it’s market value was well in the 30Bs. By value I am saying a world where owners just dumped all their shares until they were no longer owners, by market value I mean what another entity might pay to buyout twitter.

I could be remembering wrong but Twitter was only worth $15B at best, and Elon bought it for $44B because he’s that smart.

I genuinely think he’s just a pawn in a bigger game in which some powers wanted twitter gone.

Brainless but sounds like a competent leader. Has all the qualities the Illuminati are looking for when appointing a new drone.

Why gone? I understood that the Saudi government just wanted to de-anonymize it (i.e be informed about the authors of any critical tweets).

I bet that’s happening right now.

No. He may be influenced by others, but it’s clear his ego is just that enormous and that his emotional immaturity makes him do stupid shit impulsively.
elbarto777@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Which makes him perfect for manipulation.

Even if he was ‘manipulated’ he would be the same person regardless if he wasn’t. He is clearly a self-serving person with ego problems. There are no billionaires that aren’t fucked up people.
