    Where did I say Musk was going to profit?? All I said is that he took a private (sector) business that was serving as a public forum and is running it into the ground.

    You then deviated off, talking about the difference between privately traded and publicly traded businesses, as if that was some salient point I had overlooked.

    Musk had to make the purchase, he was forced to, thanks to his dumbassery. I’m not saying he planned this all along, but that doesn’t mean he isn’t trying to make something of the loss by running it into the ground and seeing what kind of dodgy precedents he can set along the way. Such precedents pave the way for new platforms that take its place after it’s gone.

    Mark my words, Twitter/X is going to die. To be more specific, bankruptcy within 5 years, probably far fewer.
