Dr. Shiva ran for Senate in 2020 and was kicked off all social media a couple weeks or so before the election. He was likely cheated out of a win. He then sued the social media companies, representing himself. During discovery he obtained the same documentation Musk just exposed regarding the feds having a direct line to the tech companies in order to request people be shadow banned, suspended and permanently banned. He just didn't get the recognition for it. He definitely has a big ego, but he's actually quite accomplished.
