Elon Musk simply wants to make Twitter fun again.

The billionaire and visionary tech genius is in the process of buying the social media platform for roughly $44 billion, and the move has excited some people and outraged others. (RELATED: David Hookstead Is The True King In The North When It Comes To College Football)

What does the Tesla founder want to do with the social media platform? He just wants people to have a good time.

“My goal, assuming everything gets done, would be to make Twitter as inclusive as possible, and to have as broad a swath of the country on Twitter, and that they find it interesting and entertaining and funny and that it makes their life better,” Musk said Monday night when talking to Vogue at the Met Gala.

To be clear, it’s been obvious ever since Musk embarked on his journey that his goal was to make Twitter a place that fostered conversations and debates.

He also made it clear that the amount of censorship on the platform, especially of true stories, was completely unacceptable. Why that would outrage so many people is beyond me, but that’s where we’re at.

It’s almost like some people don’t love free speech! It’s almost like they’re scared of people able to share opinions they don’t agree with!

Personally, I hope Musk succeeds. Twitter has become a broken platform and it desperately needs fixing. Let’s hope like hell Musk can get the job done.
