I have an alternative theory for this. Once Elon was forced by the DE court to buy Twitter, he went to autocrats and dictators with money and told them he'd burn Twitter to the ground on their behalf for 44B.

No Twitter, no Arab Spring. No live updates of disasters, no need to shutdown the internet to prevent dissenting voices from spreading.

Are we doing theories? Mine is that Peter Thiel sold Musk on buying Twitter by convincing him of his ability to make it profitable with his genius, knowing full well he'd sink the thing in 18 months, and another pesky tool would be off the table for awhile.

That theory is pure speculation on the basis of motive with no actual grounding in reality, no offense. There's not a shred of evidence that GlobalAutocracy™ banded together to cough up $50B to kill of Twitter...

You thought Musk was playing 4D chess? Think again. He was in fact playing 29D chess, with dictators, and autocrats.
