On October 27, the billionaire posted a letter to advertisers on his social network page, confirming that he had finally bought Twitter. In it, the businessman explained that he wanted to have a digital platform for discussing a wide variety of opinions.

“Twitter will continue to embrace everyone”

Saying that he bought the social network to discuss different views in a healthy way, Elon Musk noted that this is important for the civilization of the future.

The reason I bought Twitter is because it is important for the future of civilization to have a common digital platform where a wide variety of views can be healthily discussed without resorting to cruelty.
said Musk.

The billionaire justified it by the fact that, in his opinion, traditional profit-seeking mass media “warms” the polarities and division of society, not providing opportunities for dialogue.

In addition, Elon Musk said that from now on it will not be possible to post anything on the social network without further results. At the same time, according to the businessman, Twitter will continue to be welcoming to everyone.

In the reviews, Musk’s positions are completely different – some accuse him of trying to suppress freedom of speech, others admire the idea of ​​​​a businessman on the contrary.

The saga that bought Elon Musk and Twitter

About half a year ago, Elon Musk announced that he wanted to buy Twitter. But after a while, the billionaire announced that he changed his mind about buying the social network.

But in October, Elon said he plans to make an acquisition again. He offered the company $54.20 per share, or a total of $44 billion. After that, the billionaire decided to “mocker” the social network again. She made a request on Twitter to buy her new perfume so she could buy it.

On the afternoon of October 27, Musk announced his acquisition of the social network and posted an intriguing video. It shows Musk bringing a sink to his headquarters in San Francisco. He also wrote “Head Tweet” in the description of his Twitter account.
