Elon Musk, Tesla CEO who appears determined to move a large percentage of human beings to Mars is also determined to buy Twitter and the world seems alarmed about that. The New York based The Nation says it is dangerous to allow him do it. So also The Atlantic which went further to call him a bullionnaire whose ownership of Twitter would concentrate so much power in the hands of someone already so rich.
Musk’s attempt and the volley of say nayers that has greeted it so far might be the most interesting show to watch in recent times. Will he have his way? If he does, where might that indicate that capitalism is going as far as wealth and power relations is concerned? And with what implications especially for those who are mere spectator of capitalism as people, countries and civilisations?
