He is already being sued for a variety of issues related to how he is handling Twitter. The conspiracy has to go all the way around into suggesting that he intentionally wants everyone to think he is a fool, at expense of his other businesses, to make decisions even average people believe to be clueless and destructive, when he could arrange for that to happen much more subtly.
Seems simpler to me to just believe he is a fool. This whole conspiracy seems to come from sheer disbelief that someone so wealthy could be so stupid. But it seems to me it proves that wealth and competence or intelligence aren’t correlated after all.

If anyone might be deliberately trying to kill Twitter, maybe it’s whoever financed it. Wouldn’t they realize that Elon offered for Twitter far more than it was worth and that repaying it is very unlikely?
