A both sides problem and net negative for the society. I think it could be quite a positive if he could actually do that and also end the bots on Twitter hopefully setting a precedent. I'd love to know how the person running twitter will "reverse the stupidity that is cancel culture"? Unless you have a very narrow view of cancel culture that only includes people being banned from Twitter?

I guess my hope would be that a short stint back will remind people how truly despicable that guy is and that his moment back in the sun will be short-lived. Let him expose himself again and again. Long term that is far superior

That's not how the real world works.

Even a shareholder vote would fail spectacularly. The 52 week high was in the 70s - a buyer would need to be close to that. If Musk was serious, he’d up his bid to a number that has to be taken seriously. Or he would actually go hostile and launch a tender without conditions. Right now he’s just trolling the market and the SEC. This post. Hoo boy.

Cancel culture is just people getting together and deciding they want to boycott/dox somebody. The existence of Twitter certainly has an influence on cancel culture, since it's a place where like-minded people can pool their collective influence, but unless Musk's plan is to kick out anyone who boycotts or speaks out against something they don't like (which would obviously be a pretty massive departure from his stated free-speech goals) then I'm not sure what difference they could make.
April 25, 20223 yr Man, first residents of two central Florida counties could possibly see a bump in property taxes and now Elon Musk buys twitter. It's been a really tough week for NPC ishlibs.
