He technically was forced to buy it. He first wanted to buy it but then he didn't want it anymore after he saw how many bots there are instead of actual users afaik. There was no return in this dealership or smth.

Not quite right, he said he wanted to buy it but really just wanted to pump the stock to sell it. Then they started forcing him to buy it so he said there were too many undisclosed bots as an excuse. When that didn't work he was forced to buy it anyway.

You're right about this. Musk has two options: Pay a lot of money and receive nothing, or Pay and Buy Twitter

But now we have X, that sounds "lfmao coolest name of all history 😱🤟🔥" in the head of Musk I guess

Musk is not a bad guy, but his decisions were funny in many cases

No one accumulates that kind of money without being a bad guy
