Twitter has a new leader! The purchase of $44,000 millions from the social media giant by Elon Musk became official last 25 April . The Tesla CEO promised to make Twitter a legitimate place for free speech under his leadership.
After the deal, celebrities turned to precisely this platform to express their thoughts, both for and against, and that is that many people do not support Elon’s agreement to buy Twitter.
Paul Stanley, the leader of the band KISS, pointed out that such an extraordinary sum of money could be used for any number of humanitarian causes, such as solving world hunger.
“Instead of financing a personal purchase, wouldn’t it be better for our world to move forward using much less than $44,000 millions to eradicate hunger in the world?”

For the musician , buying the social network only serves individual purposes, while there would be many ways to help “our world move forward”.
“Does it cure cancer? The list is long; and the possibilities are endless”, determined Stanley on his Twitter account.
Meanwhile, his partner Gene Simmons reacted to the news of Elon’s acquisition of the social media platform and said that his limits on freedom of expression would be very significant in this moment.
“Fantastic news. Elon Musk is now the proud owner of Twitter. Freedom of expression is important. But, hate speech, factual misinformation (lies) should not be part of free speech IMHO,” Gene tweeted and even wished Musk good luck in his future moderation of the platform.
Elon Musk took control of Twitter, after agreeing to buy it for $44,000 millions, with money from his pocket and bank loans with the guarantee of Tesla. Now everyone wants to know what will be the first moves that the controversial tycoon will make on the social network, which has 300 millions of users.
Despite everything, the truth is that Musk has made Twitter have more movement with his latest publication, since he stated that he is going to buy Coca-Cola to recover the original recipe of the most famous soft drink in the world and re-introduce a ingredient that is prohibited because it is considered a drug.
“Next time I’m going to buy Coca-Cola to put cocaine back in it,” the president and co-founder of Tesla posted.
