Serious question: is musk actively trying to run twitter into the ground for some kind of financial benefit, or is he just an arrogant asinine asshole who has no idea what he's doing?
My tinfoil hat theory is this: Musk has ties with dictators who would really, really like to see Twitter die as it’s been used in the past to organize resistance and broadcast embarrassing information. Musk is used to do the dirty job of running it into the ground. He may or he may not be actually aware of this, as your characterization of Musk is on point. Just speculation of course.
