What is the favorite discussion on Twitter? Elon Musk’s Twitter account. At (almost) each of his new messages, the platform ignites. The new Twitter boss even managed to stir up a stir across Bulgaria after one of his comments under a photo of Belogradchik Fortress. “Almost certain it was in Elden Ring “, he wrote in reference to one of his favorite video games. Without suspecting the shock wave he was going to cause in the poorest country in the EU, rarely in the spotlight.
From ministers to Internet users, some already imagine the richest man in the world treading the Bulgarian rocks of Belogradchik, and bringing tourists in his wake. Others are worried: “He will come and buy our land,” commented one woman.
Elon Musk has, for the time being, ignored the many tweets asking him to confirm his stay or not. But no doubt he is amused by the commotion he has still caused. Because, as an assumed libertarian, Elon Musk first applies to himself his conception of total freedom of expression.
Deliberately provocative, he makes fun of shocking Internet users with a photo of a gun on his bedside table or by putting his plan to end the war in Ukraine to the vote. For the moment, it seems to know only one limit. On December 2, he suspended Kanue West’s Twitter account after he posted a swastika.
