Perhaps the thought is to make Twitter into the AOL style portal for Starlink. Or...."The official platform of Mars ."

Below is an excerpt from a conversation Elon Musk had with MIT research scientist and podcast host Lex Fridman, earlier this evening.
Source: www.foxbusiness.com...
"Let me run Twitter for a bit," Fridman said. "No Salary. All in. Focus on great engineering and increasing the amount of love in the world. Just offering my help in the unlikely case it’s useful."
Shortly after Fridman made the offer, Musk responded.
"You must like a lot of pain," he said.
"One catch: you have to invest your life savings in Twitter...And it has been in the fast lane to bankruptcy since May.
Still want the job?"
Is it possible Elon Musk didn't know Twitter was a huge money loser before he paid a staggering $44,000,000,000 ($44 BILLION) for the social media platform?

Maybe his purchase of Twitter was motivated by something else, other than to simply own and fix a social media company platform?

Musk can afford to lose $44B. It's not like he had been lugging it around in his backpack.
Can he? Thats about 25 percent of his net. That would be a tough one for me to take..especially after bills and such..The bankruptcy thing was obvious..if it wasn't to him..it was. So the paid a quarter of his monetary value to salvage some company..and yes when You're worth 170 billion, that's all twisty is..some company..Why? Different agenda..gonna sell it off and swipe the influence for the desire..Yep, but what's the desire..Mars is a deflection..choo Choo imagination station…Access..but to what? I know..He wants ATS..alright case closed..Dont sell guys, its a tarp!!
