@feloneouscat from the article: 1) debasing the validity of blue checks to disrupt mainstream media; 2) Using twitter as a rightwing information channel; 3) promoting his own RW views via false consensus and "polls". He has money to burn, and is burning it.
@Committovote It will fail before the 2024 elections. Have you looked at Tesla stock? He’s using it as a wallet to support Twitter. He doesn’t have an infinite supply of money and trolls are cheap to manufacture.
The bottom line is servers are expensive and he is burning cash with few advertisers.
It’s Truth Social with a madman at the helm.
