I still think you're giving him way too much credit. Either way, he ain't getting out of this without looking like an idiot who should stick to what he is good at: hype and marketing.
I mean sure he might be a useful idiot- but we’ve seen plenty of old money world powers thrusting egotistical useful idiots in way over their heads to destabilize the balance of the world in the past decade…
Yea, but what are they expecting by paying 44B? That every sad twatter sod moves to tiktok? Because we aren't suddenly going to go outside. Anyway, this may become a very special summer for people to experience the great outdoors (or not, e.g. France) if a billionaire buys and shutters a popular platform in a year :)
