Musk, the richest man in the world, said today that he will be ‘holding his breath until everyone is nice to him’. The statement came as advertisers grew concerned about being associated with blatant antisemitism. A statement released by Apple claims that Musk is ‘acting up for attention and needs a timeout and possibly a nap.’ Musk responded with a post to X, formerly a semi-legitimate social media platform, that 'Apple is a big meanie who is in bed with the Jews. ’
"Has our company ever made bad business decisions? Well, we once bought advertising from Twitter. Don't do that. In the calm, rational, well-weighed opinion of our company, Musk is a massive crybaby and dealing with him is such a fucking fucking headache." - overheard in a business seminar, 2024
Is it really thermonuclear if it can easily be dismissed with a couple of screenshots? And he is trying to allege fraud. This is the flimsiest crybaby tantrum he has had yet.
Right? The media matters article screenshots clearly prove it’s allegations. Unless he tries the angle that they were photoshopped (and obviously he needs proof for it) this gets dismissed immediately.
Hoping it doesn’t cost media matters anything or that they can recoup any fees they may incur from this. Nice to have real reporting with proof to back it up like they showed.
Maybe he meant thermonuclear in the sense that it is mutually assured destruction because, as most trigger happy lawsuit threats tend to forget, a lawsuit means discovery. So a lot more dirt about Xitter and Musk would have to become public record.
I really want to see him fall on his face suing people who choose to not do business at the nazi bar, then try to sue the ADL for pointing out he runs the nazi bar. Please, please, let him spend whatever he has left on this…
supporting free speech by suing people for speech in the attempt to limit speech. I’m not saying media shouldn’t be held accountable but in the age of PR bullshit do words mean things anymore?
Believing there are limits to free speech is not a crazy thing but just say what you mean. Media watchdog said things you don’t like so you’re suing them.
"Above everything, including profit, X works to protect the public’s right to free speech. But for speech to be truly free, we must also have the freedom to see or hear things that some people may consider objectionable,” he added.
Good to know you believe in free speech. Elmo. So you won’t mind if companies exercise that right by choosing not to advertise on your racist, apartheid-loving network.
I wouldn’t put it past him to eat grandiose for breakfast even if it’s some bacon and eggs wrapped in edible gold and glass full of his own magnificent piss.
“Above everything, including profit, X works to protect the public’s right to free speech. But for speech to be truly free, we must also have the freedom to see or hear things that some people may consider objectionable,” he added.
It’s important to note that one of Musk’s lawyers, not Musk himself, made this statement. That’s because lawyers are immune to levels of irony that would be lethal to an ordinary human.
something I hadn’t considered until right now is what if spaceX gets a contract for replacement ICBM launch vehicles or for a new whole weapon. Seeing what he does with Tesla and the owners lack of real ownership could be a warning sign
This is a sincere worry of mine. Th case for an income limit lies there. No one should be able to buy a nuclear weapon and have the power to kill millions instantly. They shouldn’t be able to kill them slowly either but I digress. Too many religious nut jobs trying to bring on the apocalypse for this shit.
i think it’s pretty funny to see this guy destroy everything he comes into contact with. we already have agreed that this guy is an idiot, so we can just circlejerk until this all goes away.
But her boss (Elon) last night endorsed the pernicious antisemitic conspiracy theory that Jewish people are supporting “hordes of minorities” who are “flooding” into the country to replace white people.
Ouch.
I think that is called "Immigration" but the nuance might be lost to some people.
It Also how genetic diversity works. Which the nuance might also be lost to some people. But this is how complex organism cycle out traits they don't use anymore and adapt to traits they do need. We call this Evolution.
But to say some population could control this process is laughable. I would think global warming would be our sign, we don't have nature under control to that degree.
And for sure, not by people who are bouncing around the idea of population replacement as a real theory.
