    Saying "we don't want you to buy us" is usually just a negotiating ploy in these deals. The other owners of twitter are just other billionaire capitalists, hedge funds acting on behalf of capitalists, or mutual fund companies who only care about ROI.

      That’s true. They certainly don’t have any concerns about twitter other than how much money it can make them. I guess i should expand to the obvious, it’s fucked up that one person can just buy into such a major media company like this. Nationalize the internet and all that
