I voted to have him step down.

But, I do support him buying Twitter. Some people may disagree but the documents Matt Taibbi and Bari Weiss have been releasing is stuff the public has the right to know, even though a few corporations, security state actors, and some politicians may prefer to keep secret.

People in power invest in sourcing, curating, and interpreting information into intelligence and wield it for gain. Regular people do not seek intelligence that they can use to affect a large part of society, for they anre content with smaller things.

That is one of the most arrogant and ignorant things that I have ever read.
