What is he thinking? Putting this person in charge, with her ties to the global censorship-obsessed WEF, seems contrary to Elon's mission to make Twitter a place for free speech.

> Elon's mission to make Twitter a place for free speech

How much unambiguous proof does he need to provide before all people realize his stated mission is not his actual mission?

Doing one thing and saying you're doing something else is an astonishingly effective tactic.

And what is his actual mission?

My best guess is he's just an idiot and doesn't really think things through, just saying/doing whatever dumb idea pops into his head at the moment

I don't want to be confused for an Elon Musk fanboy, but he's definitely not stupid, having founded Tesla, Spacex, and other companies.

My best guess is that he wants to raze it to the ground and salt the earth on which it once stood so that nothing can grow there again. Not just destroy it, but destroy it so thoroughly and comprehensively that it cannot be rebuilt.

The exact opposite of the stated mission, as is tradition with these types of people.

He's thinking that he needs to repair his advertising business because subscriptions have been an enormous, costly flop.

I mean you could apply "What is he thinking?" to almost anything he's done with Twitter. Which leads you to the obvious conclusion... he does not think.

Can you elaborate on this? How is the WEF tied to global censorship?
