Michael Saylor hopped in the comments and said the following: “Congratulations. Your engagement represents an awesome opportunity to make@Twitter a better place and bring more freedom to the world.”
Someone said: “billionaire who heavily uses social media to manipulate his public image and personal businesses, buys chunk of social media company to eliminate future problems?” and another follower defended Musk: “Billionaire who changes the world for good… SpaceX, Tesla, Boring company, starlink… only reason we were able to send Americans to space on American rockets in a decade. Changing the way we use rockets and ignited the EV market. You talking about that guy?”
