Okay I can’t follow this anymore. There’s no way this isn’t some purposeful move to destroy twitter out of pettiness for being forced to buy it.

Has the guy received brain damage or something I’ve never seen a more spectacular dive into idiocy

I've always assumed the buyout attempt was to devalue it and cause it to fail, so I would say failure was the goal before the value wasn't able to be manipulated.

Um the buyout was at a fixed price early on. Devaluing accomplishes nothing.
