Uhhh the plan plays out the same either way. Stop being a pedantic twat missing the entire point. Musk can do it no matter the mechanism through which he bought the company: He still bought it and ran it in to the ground!!
Twitter always sucked, and always will suck. Explain to me, in pornographic detail, how this is some huge conspiracy, what the end goal of that conspiracy is, and who is perpetuating it.
I absolutely love the ask on pornographic detail, though it’s mostly the presence of many seperate but cohesive puzzle pieces. Between how he’s gotten kicked out and silenced in most of his business positions, to his children hating his guts, to his dad calling his bluffs, to how he lies on stage making promises no one in the company has even heard, yet alone vetted the viability of, to how he’s constantly liking extreme right-wing tweets and openly allowing anti-trans rhetoric…
It’s just a very large set of puzzle pieces that spell out a very, very clear picture: Elon is a fascist-sympathising white supremacist, whether it be out of hate or general priviledged lack of empathy, the result is the same. It’s mildly hidden in his eclectic pretending and mountain of lies. He doesn’t even have an engineering degree like he loves to pretend.
If that was Elon’s goal, rather than the goal of various other people he’s closely associated with (eg Peter Thiel, Saudi prince Mohammed bin Salman, to name but two of the most prominent ones), then such a goal could be fulfilled by platforms that take Twitter’s place after it’s gone - along with all the debt Twitter owes, including rent not being paid, state fines, lawsuits from former investors and staff, and the $13bn loan from the buyout itself.
That isn’t to say this was Musk’s goal all along, rather that’s what it has transformed into.
I always saw it as two possible outcomes: either they make Twitter into what they always wanted from the failed startups that tried to compete against Twitter, and pay off the debt to keep it going; or they run it into the ground and write off the debt, then replace it with something more favourable. The latter seems more and more likely as time has passed.

Let’s assume that’s true.
Let’s also assume Twitter collapses under its own weight within the next year.
How does that further Elon’s secret goal of spreading his brand of fascism and racism.
