This harkens back to the first time he spoke about Twitter as a town square.

Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, has now confirmed he is buying Twitter. The billionaire has tweeted a letter of sorts addressed to the advertisers who use Twitter. In the letter, Musk explains why he bought Twitter and that most of the speculation surrounding the purchase has been wrong.


Twitter is important to civilization

In the letter, which is separated into three parts, each a tweet, he starts off by saying right away that he feels Twitter is important to civilization because it provides a “town square” where a wide range of beliefs can debated in a healthy manner, without resorting to violence. This sentiment has been a staple of Musk’s feelings about the social media platform, as he has stated before in interviews.
