Whole bunch of words here from the BBC about what on earth Musk is doing with Twitter.
None of those word seem to suggest "He's a racist and a capitalist and he bought it to push racism and capitalism further into the overton window"
I mean any time a billionaire buys a media outlet, they're not doing it because newspapers are so massively profitable Aunty Beeb!
They are doing it so they can put their fingers on the scale of public opinion.
