his goals with 51%?

I equate this move to when Google started its Fiber business. They had no desire to be in the internet or TV business but they wanted to force changes to it.

Like it or not Twitter is one of the driving forces in media and pop culture today. Musk believes that it is broken and needs to be fixed and is one of the few people in the world with the ability to force that fix. He is trying to do it from the outside right now but is threatening to do it from within. I do not see the snowflakes who run Twitter changing willingly. Will Musk follow through on his threatened action?
