“Destroying twitter at the behest of the Saudis”… you wouldn’t happen to have a reference for a statement like that?
Probably this
A significant investment from The Kingdom Holding company itself, who previously had zero control over Twitter and who wouldn’t really like another Arab Spring to happen.
Of course there isn’t much more evidence than that, but what do they get out of the deal? Why would they be interested in throwing down that much? Did they really think Elon would turn a profit when the whole world could see the writing on the wall as this all went down?
Yeah, the theory they want to tank it is a bit tinfoil hat, but as conspiracies go it’s really not that far fetched.
They did chop a guy into pieces for his reporting on them and their business; is it really so far fetched to think they’d do something like this?
Yeah what does a Saudi prince want to do with a social platform run by a ‘free speech absolutist’? Especially to the tune of $2 billion dollars?
I’m sure it’s just a big coincidence that the site is turning into a fascist-sympathizing shithole
Weren’t the Saudis invested before hand?
This theory doesn’t make sense. Musk isn’t playing 5d chess. If Musk wanted to kill twitter there are 100 faster ways to do it, even if he wanted to be sneaky and not just directly shut it down.
It’s far more likely he was using the deal to sell TSLA without hurting the evaluation and then Musk caught the car.
I’m not saying he’s tanking Twatter on purpose… but what would he do differently if he was?
People keep attributing Musk being an idiot to things other than him just being an idiot.
We know he didn’t want to buy Twitter. We know he’s trying to cut costs by cutting every corner. We know his handling of Twitter lost a major share of advertisers. We know he’s trying to compensate for it by milking the perpetually online Twitter addicts.
He’s just really shit at it. There is no deeper motive, just embarrassing failiure.
Thank you, the conspiracy theory that he bought twitter just to kill it, is beyond dumb… if he did want to kill twitter he could literally just shut it down. If he wanted to pretend that wasn’t his goql he could rebrand twitter, shut down the old site and open a new one. That would effectively kill twitter overnight.
