The news of Elon Musk’s offer to buy Twitter to make it more free speech oriented has sparked a debate as to how effective the Tesla CEO could be at improving the platform and increasing its value, with skeptics fearing that he could diminish it by turning it into his own plaything.

“Twitter will be stronger by itself, keeping control, than if it becomes, you know, ‘Musk Social,'” said Mark Weinstein, founder and CEO of MeWe, an alternative social media platform that has been popular with conservatives and free speech supporters.
