I found this interesting article when trying to understand why he’s doing what he’s doing with Twitter. What was Elon Musk’s strategy for Twitter? - NBC News
On the day that public records revealed that Elon Musk had become Twitter’s biggest shareholder, an unknown sender texted the billionaire and recommended an article imploring him to acquire the social network outright.
Musk’s purchase of Twitter, the 3,000-word anonymous article said, would amount to a “declaration of war against the Globalist American Empire.” The sender of the texts was offering Musk, the Tesla and SpaceX CEO, a playbook for the takeover and transformation of Twitter…
The text messages described a series of actions Musk should take after he gained full control of the social media platform: “Step 1: Blame the platform for its users; Step 2: Coordinated pressure campaign; Step 3: Exodus of the Bluechecks; Step 4: Deplatforming.”
That pressure campaign is against the Anti Defamation League which Musk has been trying to do.
So I guess he’s doing it all for far right adulation.
What was Elon Musk’s strategy for Twitter?
Well, he is kinda following a random message he got from an unknown person:
The three texts were sent on April 4, 2022. In the nearly 18 months since then, many of the decisions Musk made after he bought Twitter appear to have closely followed that road map, up to and including his ongoing attacks against the Anti-Defamation League, a nonprofit organization founded by Jewish Americans to counter discrimination.

Seems he’s killing it to get cheers and adulation from the far right.
Hey! That’s just about what I do! I make it a little lighter with 40g of coffee and 20oz (591g) of water.
I use a little water to warm up the press, empty it, drop the coffee in, pour maybe 100g of water to get it going and stir then wait a minute, add the rest of the water and brew for 5 minutes, press and enjoy. It comes out just right for my taste and preference for light and medium roast Central American beans.
That was beautiful. Thank you for sharing it.
I’m a brown guy with long hair and a beard and I’d do the same. When I do my quarterly drive on I-10 through Alabama and Mississippi I make sure to refuel and take a bathroom break in Pensacola Florida or the eastern-most rest area in Louisiana to avoid stopping in those states.

“Price said she learned police had visited the home at least five times within the past year. “The landlord even told [police] she had new tenants,” she said.”
They knew and they went for it anyway. Typical.
