Comment on Elon Musk Bought Twitter to Settle His Jet-Tracking Beef, New Book Claims

Considering that…
- The Republicans encouraged him multiple times to buy it
- He quick stopped blocking (mainly Russian) state-sponsored social manipulation campaigns
- He immediately allowed right wing agitators back on the platform
- He almost immediately banned droves of journalists that weren’t blindly Pro-Russia and Pro-GOP
- He censored / banned all kinds of activists that pushed back against authoritarian (Russia-backed) regimes in other countries
…I have a hunch that he also served the interests of certain political actors with the acquisition. Public town square my lower backside.

Didn’t they hang dissenters in public squares back in the old days?
He just didn’t clarify when!
