    Your edit has been my pet theory for some time. That and he gets to ruin a platform that leftists have used to organize around the world.

      Yea, I mean I think it’s probably his best play. But I don’t really grant him to be so principled as to have originally bought twitter for that purpose: I think he’s a dumbass who got called on a shitpost, and now he has to weasel his way out.

      Doesn’t mean he’s not also a reactionary cunt, but I personally think that plays second fiddle to this situation.
