I agree but this assumes Musk is acting rationally. He has been a bit odd lately. Maybe he got too high with his girlfriend and got weird. I don't know. Then again he is also human and prone to acting irrationally out of spite or vengeance.

No.. it assumes Musk is only trying to maximize his net worth with this move, which is a ridiculous assumption.


At the point where he's at, what exactly is rational? It's all up to what he wants to achieve. Money is not the end goal for anyone. It's what you want to do with the money. What does he want to do? Only he knows but my guess is influencing the world towards what he believes is better. Twitter seems like a interesting tool for that.

The virgin rationalist versus the Chad Übermensch.

If I was drinking coffee I'd need a new keyboard.
