I used to think Elon was just an idiot for buying Twitter and running it into the ground, but now I wonder if he was completely successful in buying a giant megaphone and making sure it only broadcast his pro-Trump propaganda. What does he care if it's not making as much money?

This is why people flocking to Bluesky and not Fedi boggles my brain. Centralisation in the hands of capital is a precarious position to find yourself in if you ever find yourself ever against the state. They now have all of that data handed to them on a silver platter.

He is going to get so much contracts for his other companies, not to forget in Russia since he managed to put a kompromat in the white house

This is very plausible. And an argument for why we shouldn't have the ultra rich. No one should be able to do such a thing.
