Symbolically, it suggested both a fresh start and his mission to “clean up” the platform. Upon completing the $44 billion acquisition, Musk's initial action was swift; he dismissed all top executives immediately.
In marking the second anniversary of this acquisition, Musk again shared the iconic video on X, reminding followers of the moment he cemented his ownership of the platform on October 28, 2022.
