<p>The article Collins refers to was published by an ex-Trump staffer and texted to Elon Musk before his Twitter purchase. It outlines a strategy wishlist for destroying the platform. Such items include blaming the ADL when advertisers flee, purging the “blue checks” and deplatforming prominent accounts, which, the <del>article</del> text predicted, would be a “battle.”</p>

<p>Ben Collins provides <a href="https://x.com/oneunderscore__/status/1709007318656966929?s=20" rel="nofollow">the details</a> via video on TwitterX. In it, he asks for help revealing the person who texted Elon the article link, which is currently redacted.</p>

<p>A friend and I often debate whether Elons actions are a deliberate attempt to kill the bird app. My friend, more reasonable than I, reminds me not to blame malice for stupidity. And he&#39;s right. Even with Collins&#39; reporting, how do we prove intent? But man, it&#39;s <em>hard</em> not to draw conclusions. Elon is like Jack Donaghy with none of the charm, and Tucker Carlson&#39;s Twitter show is God Cop.</p>
