I strongly beg to differ. The purported damage may be in the low tens of billions. It doesn't mean that Twitter will get that much, but they'll certainly sue for that much.
> And he will likely create a new social media and crush twitter.
What makes you believe that that is likely? I don't see any evidence for it whatsoever. Twitter has an incredible moat. Just because Musk is going to start a twitter competitor (which I doubt he'd bother doing since he's already so busy) doesn't mean it will be successful, if it even ever gets off the ground. Most likely it will be a small niche community.
> I was talking about people attacking him just for being rich and accusing him of having an "inflated ego"
Clearly the man has an inflated ego if he thinks he can pull nonsense like this and get away with it. You could make a reasonable argument that he's "earned" that ego, but that's different from whether or not he has one.
