Ever since he bought it and started basically wrecking the place, I've suspected that his goal has been to reduce the usefulness of Twitter to non-conservatives. Obviously he has a incredibly massive stick up his ass regarding politics, and Twitter failing would mean basically nothing to him personally.

Some people would call that a conspiracy theory or cite maxims such as 'never attribute to malice what could be attributed to incompetence" but I could find some counter-maxims I bet.
