Not only is the EU the densest regulatory power in the world, but Thierry Breton is one of the most dogged defenders of it. Musk’s Twitter is likely to be in for big bust ups in 🇪🇺.

The more Musk's actions don't make sense from a commercial point of view, the more I become convinced that this is about politics for him, specifically ingratiating himself with the American right and with Beijing. A brief thread with the evidence. /1

Musk seems to be on a mission to damage Twitter. He’s alienating both the most unique part of its userbase – the journalists and others who make it the global public square – and the advertisers who are Twitter’s actual customers but who can’t stomach his erratic behavior. /2

Why would he do this? It makes sense if you want to court a few specific groups: the American right, Beijing, and potentially other American adversaries. /3

To understand the domestic politics angle, you have to understand how the right has become fixated in recent years on the tech industry and the (supposed) liberals who run it. /4

Prominent right-wing figures now even talk of a kind of digital totalitarianism in which cultural norms are dictated by the (supposed) ability of tech companies to police online discourse. They badly wanted to see these companies displaced or forced to cater to the right. /5

Which is exactly what Musk is offering through (a) his pledge to change how Twitter moderates discourse, to allow more RW extremism (b) his culture war against blue checks, who in the minds of the right are the key figures in Twitter’s cabal of liberal thought police. /6

The plan to charge for blue checks makes no sense otherwise. It will destroy the perceived value of the blue check and earn piddling revenue, which is primarily an ad business. Its only purpose is to win plaudits from the right by showing he shares their enemies. /7
