Previous, I thought the "he's trying to destroy Twitter along with a good chunk of his own fortune" idea was ludicrous. I assumed he was trying his best, in his own way, and would take a few months to rediscover how to run things. Eventually end up a good business, somewhat more Free than before.

Now... not so sure. Anything's possible.



The links to the Saudis and their previous attempts to infiltrate Twitter make me wonder just how much the destruction was planned (and what else they're getting out of the deal):

It just seems like he has poor emotional control, and perhaps emotionally he's fine with lashing out at Twitter itself.

He's already reversed multiple decisions on short notice, which makes it seem like the decision making would be better if he just thought about things for a day or two.
