Years ago, Elon Musk tweeted, "I love Twitter." And since he is the richest man in the world, he can buy the things he loves even if they are worth $44 billion.

And in another tweet, he wrote, “He expresses himself through Twitter, as some express themselves through their hair!” That is, he found in it the appropriate way to communicate his thoughts, even that famous tweet about turning Tesla into a private company, and because of it the watchdog punished him America, in which he repeatedly attacked officials and described them as "scoundrels"!

Musk's public love of Twitter is useful to him, because he is looking for a media platform that represents him strength, weight and influence on the world level, and there is nothing more than Twitter, the home of politicians, financiers and change makers. After achieving glory and getting to the point of getting rich, people like Musk are looking for dolls to play with and give them more sparkle, put them at the center of events, and nothing is better than big platforms or media (Musk seems to find it more exciting than any other kind of entertainment. Final Tweet A satirical in which he wrote that he intends to buy Coca-Cola and return the cocaine to it), such as Jeff Bezos, who owns the "Washington Post", which has turned into a way to protect and defend him and express his ideas.

The most frequently asked question now is: What will Musk do on Twitter? He is likely to make some fixes and modifications to the tweet editing mechanism, delete fake accounts, and develop an algorithm, which he hinted at in his recent tweets. Musk is angry with Twitter's engineers, and has followed them more than once with tweets saying that their work has fallen to another level.

These remain important but not essential measures, but the important thing is to restore neutrality to the famous platform that started supporting freedom of expression and a space that accommodates everyone, but it changed over time due to the charged political conditions inside the United States to become an objective and lacking party in broad circles. Bans, bans, and bans are similar to witch-hunts, and even if some see them as justified and logical, they were doubted even by personalities, such as Democratic candidate Bernie Sanders, who questioned the correctness of the decision to ban President Trump and his supporters. Withholding the story of the New York Post from President Biden's son dealt another stab at the platform's credibility, especially after newspapers such as the New York Times recently announced the legitimacy of the story, and that it did not receive sufficient coverage from them.

This was the mistake made by those in charge of Twitter when their ideological inclinations overshadowed a sense of fairness and professional impartiality. Musk realizes how Twitter stumbled in its steps, and he was clear by saying that he is a staunch advocate of freedom of expression, and he said in a second tweet that he wishes his fiercest critics to remain on Twitter, because that is the definition of freedom of expression. He recently hinted that Trump's exit and establishment of his new platform was due to the restriction of his freedom in Twitter.

Musk is often attacked by figures on the left who fear that his control of one of the world's largest platforms will give more space for conservative voices to express themselves after they have been narrowed down in recent years. The tech giants were allied intellectually and had the tremendous power to block out any figures or ideas they deemed dangerous, inflammatory, or unscientific, such as those related to global warming. Holding the 44 billion deal, he broke this monopoly and took Twitter out of the iron alliance, and it is expected that it will give more freedom to new voices, even if he disagrees with them.

He will face a fierce campaign of accusations that began recently from his opponent, Bezos, who referred to the Chinese influence on him, but his next battle is to limit the influence of ideological ideologues within the company, which news says that turbulence and unrest occurred after Musk, who was described by one of the employees as "Twitter", became Recently, with a psychopath, the sole owner and first and last word on the platform that sets the world's agendas every day.
