What I don’t believe is that somebody bought Twitter only, or even primarily, to further their “class interests”. The whole framing here is bent.


> somebody

That he's the wealthiest known man in the world seems like relevant context here.


Also that he tried to back out and a judge forced him to buy it.


No one, not even the cringiest, wanna-be edge lord from 4chan spends $44B to buy Twitter unless they think there's value there. Even paying a big premium for Twitter. So what value does Musk see in Twitter? He's not going to make money off it. He bought a huge megaphone to push his social/class interests.


He sued to try to get out of buying it!
