If one owner bans speech he doesn't like (@Elonjet), other owners will ask to do the same. Having control of speech on Twitter was likely a factor in the "investment".
The timeline of Musk buying Twitter was a trainwreck, so I don't think there were any factors, just an attempt at salvaging an awful deal.
Musk frequently comments on political issues in other countries.
