Because he thinks he can make it worth more than it's worth now.

Or what he has (Tesla) is overvalued and he wants to diversify to maintain value after Tesla comes down to earth.

Cheeky kid said fuk you I want 50k

Elon musk said fuk you, I will spend 43 billion and buy Twitter just to win and not give you 50k while still getting what I want which is banning your channel. Oh and I’ll pretend it’s for free speech fukkin rofl.

Rich people are always looking for ways to get richer. So I am always skeptical of rich people.

But he is a troll and this is the troll to end all trolls to the woke crowd.

It would be nice, though, for this to be I got FU money, so FU to the censorship regime that has been in running clown world.
Freedom of speech is a principle pillar of a free government; when this support is taken away, the constitution of a free society is dissolved and tyranny is erected on its ruins.

Yea, I haven't even really engaged in the discussion about this, because to think some creep securities manipulator, welfare leach, like Musk, bought Twitter for the common good is so low IQ it is extremely frustrating to see people actually believe.

He is adamantly against censorship, which is why he refused to ban Russian news sources from his starlink systems providing internet in Ukraine. There is talk he will unban James Okeefe and The orange one. Imagine if he also unbanned Alex Jones.

Really though I think it is something else. As someone else suggested it is the defacto town hall, it is also clearly manipulated and has the reach to control public discourse and opinion, this is a power that has been abused by twitter for years. Does anyone for a second believe Musk is above wielding this power for his own benifit?

I mean basically if he unbans Trump, there is literally no reason to ban anybody. If you can literally try to overthrow the US government from a position of power, with violence, and penetrate the peaceful transfer of democracy and that's cool, well, that's pretty ****ed.
