A Presidential pardon won’t do you any good when you’re escorted into a Saudi consulate because you fucked with the bag and Muhammed Bone Sawman is upset.
He didn’t fuck with anything. For them it was money well spent. Think of all the things that used to be coordinated and all the information shared on Twitter. That’s gone, or at least seriously degraded, that’s what they bought.
They are fellow rich people. Losing a few billion of a trillion dollar family when you’re also rich is whatever. They’ll build it back in a month or less, the Saudi wealth fund is just that large. Twitter probably modified the algorithm to favor certain MBS takes and downplay things they’ve done which probably counts as worth it enough for them. Same reason they do sportswashing. Making the money off it is just a bonus to preventing western sanctions or interference because of citizen pressure.
Maybe he went full retard because he knew he’d need a presidential pardon eventually

Unironically this is my opinion.
