Social bubbles/echo chambers is exactly what has created this. Why did Musk buy X and Trump created his own social media?
Because Musk accidentally made an offer for Twitter and because Trump needed to take foreign bribes?
Now, why was Musk able to get the Saudis and others to help him bankroll that purchase?
The Saudi's liked the idea of being able to censor and/or dox people who are anti-Saudi. I think they got their money's worth tbh....
So they have leverage over him
