No, I don’t agree with him. He only says shit like this to get attention, because he’s desperate for it. He made Twitter a cesspool where only those posts agreeing with him are pushed to the fore, and his own posts the highest, whether you want to see them or not.
I mean, he very obviously did it to influence the world.
It takes away a platform of discussion that wasn’t in his control, and instantly makes a giant platform under his control.
It’s a huge fucking deal that he did that, too. Like. Twitter was and is still the biggest, public discourse platform in the world. It went from being… Not great… to straight up a Nazi owned and operated platform, now constantly mined by AI, and used as a playground for all the psyops he can think of.
Like imagine an RTS and you’re the player, and every single npc from every faction converses through a single public nexus that everybody else can simultaneously see and also talk about in other places. And you create an algorithm to promote ways of thinking and block and ban any seeds of dissent, or use public shaming to your heart’s delight.
The entire world is being steered right now on literally all fronts by terrible people and organizations. Values themselves are changing. The very things that make us unique are slowly being corroded. Change happens quick, but will take generations to fully win. A decade becomes three, and soon, it’s all some adults will have ever known.
