TL;DR: Jack Dorsey and Elon Musk are secretly planning to destroy democracy and make Putin the supreme world leader.
Is this parody? I hope it's parody, I would hate it if the author was actually this crazy. Hilarious either way

Why is Twitter so important for people to freak out about? I can understand its founder inflating its value to a "public good" but it is really just a web app that common people mostly use for shitposting. Why are abstract and expansive concepts like Freedom of Speech being brought into discussing corporate politics of one goddamn company that owns one dying fad of a social network?
Mainstream journalists get their worldviews from taking the social temperature at parties, and to them Twitter is like a dinner party for all of the journalists, politicians and rich dudes in the world to mingle with each other. That the riff-raff might not be thrown out by security anymore is an apocalyptic event for them.
This is the best explanation.
The list of social networks Twitter has outlasted is too long to list. It’s been 16 years; I’d say it’s no fad.
Elon and Jack’s plans sound like the plot for the next Mission Impossible movie, which is pretty scary if they can pull it off.

World leaders use it as a megaphone.
Twitter is the platformiest platform to have a platform on in all of platformdom.
Everyone knows, words have meaning, words are valuable, especially on the internet.
If you want to make an impact on the world, the best way to do it is to have a platform and use it to do good things.
The things you do in life aren't important, it's what you talk about on Twitter.com that matters.
It demonstrates the people you associate with and the things you care about so much that you bother to write about them on the internet. People can get a deep and comprehensive understanding of who a person is by just browsing their twitter posts. That way people can pool their social capitol and raise awareness by changing their profile pictures so everyone knows what they're for and what they're against. They can retweet impactful and super important information and news to make sure that people without access to newspaper, television, radio or the internet and even the most antisocial subterranean shutins can stay informed.
Advertisers have flocked to twitter, not because they want to advertise and guage public opinion but because they want people to know they're committed to bettering the world for everyone, and agreeing with the consensus when some trending topic comes up is much more effort intensive and taxing than less effective things like donating to charity.
It really shows they're in it for the long haul and willing to put in the time and hard work to support their customers.
The sun shines at least 5% less bright now that electric car fraudulent space Hitler runs twitter.

I guess it's because it's where the media gets their "news" from. I think a lot of people feel that Donald Trump couldn't have won an election without it or been nearly as effective at keeping all eyes on him for 4 years after.
With the kind means the new owners have access to, how long could it take for it to become a polished and heavily moderated Mastodon instance if they really wanted to?
