It's kinda amazing how someone can work so hard to sabotage their own public image.
Musk wants Twitter to fail. He bid on it for a laugh and when his bid was accepted he tried to get out of it.
They made him buy it and he's been butthurt ever since. He wants everyone involved to suffer, because then the decision to hold him accountable was a bad decision.
He doesn't give a fuck about people, or technology, or even the money he sunk on it. So it looks like he's shaving his eyebrows to spite his face. It doesn't hurt, so he doesn't care.
4D chess isn't real. Sometimes, rich and powerful people do dumb things. Sometimes they're not very smart and have a visible personality disorder. Searching for an underlying clever motive is an exercise in your intelligence - not theirs.
I don't think "they made me buy it so I'm breaking it" is really a 4D move. It's more like a 4th grade move.
"So" is the mistake. He's not breaking it on purpose. He's just a fucking idiot. He is exactly as smug and incompetent as he appears.
"I'm going to do what I want despite all advice and consequences" doesn't need to be intentional or unintentional to be what it is
... and what it is, is completely different from secretly pursuing a complex goal that only looks like an idiot immune to good ideas.
In light of recent accusations: an idiot off his tits on meth, and immune to good ideas.
He's not hurting the people who made him buy it.
If he really wanted to be rid of it he could have instead done nothing. Put someone in charge with the impossible task of "make this profitable in 5 years" and then shut it down after 5 years because "it's not profitable".
Showing his ass to the world and ruining future potential for investment by looking like an incompetent idiot is not a "secretly intelligent move".
Sure he's not hurting them, but he'll still keep riding the pony into the ground, because he owns it, he'll do what he wants. He's not making intelligent moves, because his choices aren't reasoned they are just whims.
Right, he's an idiot.
What? The people who made him buy it got paid already. I'm sure they're laughing every time they see it drop in value.
They're probably doubly laughing because he fired them for supposed incompetence, yet Elon tanking the price is evidence that they were doing a much better job. You could very well see a suit for wrongful termination in the future.

You underestimate his incompetence
