The paper excuse to justify the TX move is further proof that the Twitter purchase was on behalf of Putin's alt-right disinformation ecosystem.

We've been too slow switching to the alternatives. Keep that in mind when you decide to view a tweet, or when you hear that a company is still advertising on it.

Is further proof that ...

It's an alt-right ecosystem that Musk is building, and it definitely strokes Putin's balls the right way, so far -- that's for sure.

But that doesn't make it Putin's asset, per se.

Sure, Putin doesn't own it out right (that we know of - who knows whose LLCs have financed Musk or anyone else, really.) If he did, he'd be asked to divest a-la ByteDance.

Just in the metaphorical sense, which seems to work better too. He has perfected a system of crony tycoons.
