Watch. It will end up being Alec Baldwin.

Elon Musk saw the shitter episode of South Park, and was inspired by it. He hatched a plan. He needed a company working on brain computer interface technology, and Twitter to get renamed shitter. Nuerolink was easy to find, but Shitter was troublesome. He bought twitter, then in what only could be called by Elon Musk some sort of brilliance, thought he could tank the sites reputation so hard and give it a stupid brand that people would roll their eyes and switch to calling it "shitter."

Once that had taken place, he would be able to develop the technology, and finally release a platform that gave anyone the ability to publicly broadcast all their thoughts without a filter. And he would be loved for it
