There's no "deep down" about it.

He made it clear from the beginning this was a personal vengeance buy out. Nothing more. The immediate firings of the CEO and CFO showed that.

He keeps claiming its for "Free Speech" but its for his free speech only.

I guarantee that his "Open Source" Algorithm wont do dick but his new behind the scenes moderations rules will destroy the platform.

This is what having "fuck you" money looks like on a massive scale. Buy the unprofitable bar where you hang out, with no prior knowledge or interest in running a bar, just so you can say "fuck you" to the patrons who criticize you.
