You are implying that Dorsey picked Musk to take over Twitter. He didn't. Musk tried to do a pump-and-dump like he always does and he fucked around and found out. He even tried to back out of buying it. You're basically telling me to ignore the whole history of the lead-up to Musk's purchase in exchange for some conspiracy theory involving Jack Dorsey that doesn't even make sense.
Sure Dorsey didnt single Elon out but he did say during the takeover that he believed he was the right one. Maybe that was for money but who the hell knows.
Also, Elon tried backing out because the board refused Elons plans to get rid of spam bots. This was one for Elons major plans to revitalize twitter. Not a conspiracy theory here.
