same won't happen on russia or usa.

if musk "buys" trump's untruth network and merge it with the remains or xitter, and then all the others are blocked to "save the children" nobody will say anything. maybe, just maybe, there will be a stockholders lawsuit on meta for the value dropping to zero. but hardly anything else.
