I genuinely think he's just a pawn in a bigger game in which some powers wanted twitter gone.
Brainless but sounds like a competent leader. Has all the qualities the Illuminati are looking for when appointing a new drone.
Why gone? I understood that the Saudi government just wanted to de-anonymize it (i.e be informed about the authors of any critical tweets).
Like that guy who has been condemned to death for a critical tweet to his... 8 followers.
I bet that's happening right now.
He hasn't stopped a lot of folks, including all the shitty ones that would normally be banned. Hell, he unbanned them in many cases (i.e. Trump.) With Blue he gave them a way to be all the top responses in comments no matter how shitty their take is. Making the feed useless can be just as bad (if not worse) then censoring it.
No. He may be influenced by others, but it's clear his ego is just that enormous and that his emotional immaturity makes him do stupid shit impulsively.
Which makes him perfect for manipulation.
Even if he was 'manipulated' he would be the same person regardless if he wasn't. He is clearly a self-serving person with ego problems. There are no billionaires that aren't fucked up people.
Oh for sure! But a stupid person may do stupid things on their own, and more stupid things when manipulated.
