I’ve been a long-time Elon skeptic. But if he does this, I’m open to being an Elon fan.

    The guy might be a radical libertarian, rich ghoul who got his wealth on the back of apartheid, tried to ruin a genuine heroe’s life by calling them a paedophile and may or may not be responsible for a couple of coups in countries ravaged by imperialism, but if he does the open source with the Twitter he’s literally the best person of all time!!!1 /s

        Sometimes I think it’s worth asking ourselves why a bad person is claiming they want to do a good thing, instead of getting fixated on their statement about wanting to do a good thing. Musk didn’t make this statement because he genuinely believes is, he’s asking the question because he knows this sort of thing improves his PR.

      He’s not a good person. But Elon Musk is a wrecking ball, going through the system and demolishing it. If he buys Twitter and open sources it, then the world will be a slightly better place.

          Even the panic this offer caused among blue ticks is worth it :) I’m enjoying the Schadenfreude.

        Elon Musk is going through the system and demolishing it?

        Give me a break. The guy is going with the system and embracing it. I swear, sometimes the stuff people say about Musk is just so absurd…
