Musk announces funding secured for Twitter buy
I am enjoying the cognitive dissonance of Musk skeptics who hate his huge wealth and influence, yet loudly insist it would be a practical impossibility for him to spend 10% of his net worth. Which is it? Does he wield more power than any one citizen should have, or is it all just monopoly money that is hopelessly illiquid? The answer will be whichever one makes you wrong and Elon Musk bad.The question of whose voices should be allowed on Twitter seems to me to be missing the civilizational problem. It's akin to asking whether only people who graduated from an accredited conservatory of music should be allowed to play in the kazoo section. The answer might seem complicated until you realize that there shouldn't be a kazoo section in the first place. They sound like 8th graders, and adding some terrible musicians isn't moving the dial on that. Find a new instrument.I know that Musk actually likes Twitter so this would never happen, but wouldn't it be amazing if he bought the company, laid off all the staff with severance packages, and shut the lights off? Then we could let the healing begin...
