Yeah, IMO Musk seriously overestimated the average person's tolerance for toxic and hateful political content.

I think it was a very deliberate ploy by Musk to shift the political Overton window to way to the right.

Unfortunately for him & his backers, the political shenanigans and general incompetence left Twitter vulnerable, with users seemingly choosing to trust Meta over it, of all fucking companies. This will be case study in business school for years.
