What experience does he have with it? He's a capitalist, not a sociologist, programmer or even economist.

Musk was CEO of PayPal and definitely has a deep background in programming. He made his initial fortune through writing video games and then another software startup called Zip2 (a forerunner of Map Quest and Google Maps).

Levchin was PayPal's CTO and is also deeply technical.

I thought he made his initial fortune by being the son of the owner of an emerald mine in Zambia[0]

I thought Musk was fired from both paypal and Zip2 for incompetence? Not something to brag about.

If you’re genuinely interested in the history, Jimmy Soni's new book, The Founders, is a great starting point.

Thank you

What's wrong with being a capitalist?

Politics aside it gives him no expertise in moderation queue management?

If skills worked like official titles and acquiring one meant losing another, this would be a serious problem.

Fortunately, people can and regularly do gain expertise in multiple things! Just as learning how to program doesn't destroy one's previously acquired drawing or writing skills, learning how to manage capital doesn't destroy someone's ability to combat fraud or detect malicious bots.

I don’t know if you’re talking about levchin or Elon but please do a google search before throwing around communist propaganda that is blatantly untrue. For both people.
