View submission: Liverpool owners won’t sell club to ‘interested’ Elon Musk
I'm still firmly believe that the reason he bought it is because he got mad that people called him cringe on it, went "NUH-UH I'm not cringe" and threw a billionaire hissy fit.

He bought it because he wanted to shape and influence the narrative about social and political issues to his benefit. Which means amplifying deranged alt right talking points and tweeting bold faced lies about anything on the left (which conveniently show up in everyone's notifications whether you follow him or not).
Idk why people keep trying to trivialize all this and like the Twitter situation is something we can dunk on him for. This shit is scary and depressing and harmful, and people have their fingers in the ears pretending that they're the ones having the last laugh.
