Listen all y’all it’s a SABOTAGE

That might be giving Musk too much credit. Never attribute to malice what can be explained by incompetence.

There’s far too many coincidences and moments of horrendous decisions for it all to be chalked up to incompetence at this point.

And no I don’t give him any credit. Credit goes to his handlers which at this point it’s clear is Russia. It’s obvious at this point what’s going on with Twitter is politically driven to benefit GOP and therefore Russia.

Don't forget about the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia's (via MBS) large investment, putting them as the biggest shareholder of the company behind Muskrat himself.

Here's an interesting Birdsite thread on how the KSA has been intertwined with Twitter since as early as 2011 - and no, not just as an "investor". There's been all sorts of the shadiest shit going on over there.
