I know people think Musk only bought Twitter to help the rise of fascism.
While that’s important, I still think it’s secondary to his primary goal, which was to own the place where his fans praise him.
With AI, Musk’s use of the platform for love and validation is only getting more transparent.

I’m in Chicago, first snowfall. Horrifyingly beautiful.
Beautiful because nature is.
Horrifying because humans too often aren’t.
Nearby, there are federal prisoners in Broadview probably freezing to death tonight.
May God’s mercy visit and comfort them.
And may His wrath visit their captors.
