I suspected a few years ago when the Twitter purchase was going on. That when he was sued to carry out the purchase. That was when he decided he was going to use Twitter as a mechanism of his own personal information warfare.
Mask off cartoonishly evil person does cartoonishly evil things

This guy’s autism is becoming palpable.
What has autism got to do with it? Sounds like you want to use what these days is considered a slur but don’t have the spine to do it.
I don’t know what you’re babbling about. What autism has to do with it is his public admission of Asperger’s. You thinking autism is a slur sounds like your issue, not mine.
Fine, I’ll do it. Elon Musk is retarded. Not autistic, though if he is on the spectrum that has nothing to do with it.
The guy is fucking slow. He’s the stupidest “smart” person. He may be brilliant at making money, but holy fuck does this guy hang out in the shallow end of the intellectual pool.
I’ve met birds with a better understanding of cause and effect.
I like you. You can be easily manipulated.
True for most people, unfortunately </3
Good at making money implies low morality not high intelligence and in fact iirc they’re oppositely correlated.
Good at stealing it. Making money sounds like he’s earned it somehow.
Elon exposed himself.
There’s an image that can not leave my head soon enough.
Does this mean we’re all getting horses?
U gotta crank his hog for that
No, Vermin Supreme didn’t get elected :(. We’ll get those ponies one day.
Shareholders gotta love that.
Literal manchild
Space karen is a pathetic piece of human garbage
DSM5 needs to add Petty Manchild Disorder as a recognized mental health issue so these people can get the help they deserve.
Eh, make it petty child. I’ve seen lots of women with the same behavioral issues
Make it Petty Adultchild Disorder.
Huh… I’ve always assumed that manchild was using “man” as human or mankind. Just looked it up and I was wrong.
heh yeah maybe they’ll give him ketamine
er, wait
In my experience Ketamine only enhances the problems with PACS (Petty AdultChild Syndrome)
“Do you suffer from PACS? Ask your doctor if Ketamine is right for you!”
I think Donald Trump, given reports on how he acted in childhood legitimately suffers Narcissistic Personality Disorder, although some of his traits indicate histrionic instead, primarily in that he loves negative attention, not just praise.
Elon is harder to diagnose, only because it seems fairly clear that early successes gave way to delusions of grandeur he simply internalized as the wealthy often do, which those under him stoked, but being susceptible to such things makes me kind of agree with his self diagnosis of Bipolar, with narcissistic tendencies of course, not full on NPD since he hasn’t at least overtly always been that way, and you don’t develop a personality disorder later in life, it’s literally who you are at your core, not something you suffer like mood disorders.
The problem with having Bipolar I as an oligarch is that almost no matter how manic you get, its rare to find a subordinate willing to try to reason you back to earth.
Muskrat is autistic, I wish he wasn’t he gives the rest of us a bad name.
Also he bought his “success.”
He isn’t autistic, he got the shit kicked out of him too much when he was young because he was so unlikable and he just hates the world now.
No, he’s white and affluent, so he has “Asperger’s” 🙄
No, he’s a white supremacist so of course he has (Nazi) aspergers
Has he been diagnosed as such, or is he just another Internet-Diagnosed Autist?
Self declared asperger’s.
So basically just an asshole who is undermining people with genuine issues so that he has an excuse to be an asshole.
Lovely.
He just gets better and better.
Make him mad enough to cause a stroke to wipe out his smug shit eating attitude
It’s so hilarious how trumpkin turned on his base for musk, fuck your good paying american jobs going to american born citizens, fuck your education, we want underpaid immigrants and tax cuts while cutting social security.
I don’t think he turned on his base for musk, I think he was always lying just to get their vote. He’s a massive piece of shit that only cares about “what is good for Trump?” He doesn’t give a flying fuck or two shits from a rats ass what the base wants at all.
Trump has always just spouted talking points and word salad until something gets a good reaction and that becomes the new mantra and even government policy. Things that had a bad reaction are put in the “I never said that” box.
It’s surprisingly how much this resembles how an AI generates images. It starts with random noise and refines that into a clear image that matches the criteria.
I fucking WISH Trump was anywhere near as coherent as an LLM
I’m obviously out of the loop. What happened?
Samesies. Wtf happened? Lol

Adrian Dittmann, the one replying to Musk in this tweet, is apparently Musk’s alt account.
Don’t blue check marks get paid based on their number of views cause of ads and “creator payout” stuff? Is this Musk’s side hustle lmao
Nah the blue check mark is quite random now that musk owns twitter
I haven’t heard a single peep of anyone getting paid by twitter since the first few checks went out. I don’t think he’s doing that anymore and it was always completely arbitrary who got paid (by which I mean it was only popular accounts that he liked).
Oh God. How pathetic is it that you create and alt to play with yourself. That’s like getting mad at your imaginary friend for ghosting you.
Edit:
Screw that AI noise, here’s a better article

Oh my fucking god. I only mostly read his tweets and quotes, never really hearing Musk talk much, especially not in a “debate”. I didn’t realize how incredibly childish, arrogant, and downright moronic he was in an argument. All he does is talk over a well-articulated point before the person could finish it by insulting the other party and laughing dumbly at his own joke as if he had made some sort of zinger. And the very few times he doesn’t do that he uses blatant strawman arguments.
This is literally like a child yelling back “Oh yeah?Well, your face is stupid!” How the fuck is this person the richest person on Earth? He wouldn’t even be able to keep a fast food employee job.
Elon Musk is proof that being rich does not require competence, intelligence, or hard work. (Hint: it’s luck and having rich parents)
Having rich parents is part of the luck. What’s better than gambling with your vast fortune? Gambling with someone else’s vast fortune.
Actually, it also necessitates a minimal ability to play the sidelines, manipulate and trick people and a complete lack of morality to use those abilities. He didn’t found Tesla. He stole it from its original founders by placing people who were loyal to him on the board.
Our society is structured so that the rich fail upwards, and Elon is a huge failure so he floats the best.
Makes sense why he and trump get along.
“No puppet no puppet you’re the puppet”
He’s rich cuz daddy gave him starter funds and he got lucky investing in paypal (which he tried to name X).
For anyone who, like me, wasn’t going to play the clip at the above link, holy crap go do so. It’s incredibly comical.
I am well acquainted with tricking drug addicts. I’ve been to Phish concerts.
Glorious.
Guy reads like a huge asshole in his own right though.
Yeah, he’s citing Trump, talking about symbology and Baphomet armour, presenting half-baked arguments as if he has a video of Elon saying that was him. I mean, it probably was, but this reads like a conspiracy theory
Holy shit. Elon or not that guy is embarrassing to listen to.
He adds nothing of value to the conversation and just throws insults to deflect. The most cringe worthy, brain rot insults possible.
This country is fucked.
Just another data point that shows you don’t need to be smart to be rich.
Money can buy expensive voice modulation software, but it apparently can’t buy one’s way out of stupidity. Using the same speech patterns, grammar, inflection, and laugh… he really isn’t the brightest spark in the tesla coil, is he?
He never had the right to use the name Tesla, especially because Tesla was the underdog in electricity that was burned by the same capitalism he’s championing. He’s hired very smart people and then thinks that by hiring said people he’s on their level, classic capitalist mistake
I don’t know why, but I find it very funny that Elon is basically Edison and using Tesla’s name and also that there’s an underdog electric truck company named Edison motors that’s basically making a fully electric semi with an onboard motor specifically because the dude got fucked on a Tesla semi.
I think an Edison-like company appropriating Tesla’s name is peak Edison behavior.
I’m pretty sure they where named Tesla before Musk first invested in them.
Voice changer software is super cheap too
Using the same speech patterns, grammar, inflection, and laugh… he really isn’t the brightest spark in the tesla coil, is he?
To do otherwise would require the awareness that other people have different speech patterns. I’m surprised his narcissism let him think using a different name would influence people.
Welp, even with voice modulation “Adrian” sounds just like Elon. The speech patterns line up to the point I couldn’t much tell he was using voice mod at all.
You all do realize that xelon is just fucked in the head right? He is utterly fucking bonkers.
I want to lock Musk and Chris-chan into a room together and see who out crazies the other first. Bonus points if the try to breed one another first.
I was arguing with people online that he’s a piece of shit for years and kept getting downvoted by fanboys talking about him being Tony Stark.
This isn’t some look how smart I was comment, I just assumed he was a piece of shit because he was a billionaire and I assume every billionaire is a piece of shit unless an overwhelming amount of evidence is presented.
Moral of the story is, never worship celebrities and certainly never worship billionaires, unless they are fictional ie batman, then you can like them since it’s inconsequential.
It was a mix of the constant lying about Teslas future mixed with him reminding me of a rapist I know that fixed my perception of him.
Even Batman sucks, his existence is to protect the rich.
Explain? I know he takes out big name criminals who might be upset at the system, but they’re also fucking shit up.
Batman is a rich dude who loses his parents to crime. Instead of using his vast wealth to address the root causes of crime, he goes out at night in fancy dress and beats up poor folk.
Batman is the most reactionary of superheroes, arguably worse than Punisher, and that’s even before Mark Miller got his hands on him.
Is that really about protecting the Rich though?
Not helping the poor does not equal protecting the Rich.
He’s taking his vengeance out on criminals.
Nah. It’s propping up the system. That protects the riches.
I don’t think you need to have the stipulation for evidence about billionaires not being shit. I don’t think you can be a billionaire without being shit. If you have that much money and aren’t giving it away, you’re a bad person. That’s ignoring how you got it in the first place, which basically requires unfairly benefiting from others work without compensation, excluding inheritance.
I posted a long rant about this on Mastodon. I put timeouts on my posts, though, so you’ll have to take the short form.
If someone came up to you and gave you a million dollars that you have to spend on yourself in a single day, almost anybody could quite easily do it. Most people (perhaps all people?) have a little list in the back of their mind of what they’d like to buy as a dream that’s out of reach. For instance I’d buy a nice plot of land in B.C. and build a house on it. Or I’d get a large apartment in Wuhan and fill one room with bookshelves positively dripping with books.
Now in this thought exercise this person comes back and gives you a million dollars the next day. And the next. And the next. And the next. Each day you have to spend a million dollars on yourself. Not donate to charity, not buy things for your friends. You have to spend the whole million on yourself.
How long would it take you to run out of things you really need or want? Would you last a week? A month? Well to reach a billion dollars you’d have to do this EVERY DAY FOR ALMOST THREE YEARS. Day after day you’d be spending money on more and more bizarre things. A car? Hell, no! You’ve got ten of them about now. A home? God, another one!? That would be number seven. You’d have every valuable collectible you’d ever desired, and likely multiple copies of each. This spending a million dollars a day for that long would, if you’re sane, drive you literally crazy. There’s a very real chance you’d have a nervous breakdown.
A billionaire is the person for whom this isn’t enough.
There can be no amount of evidence that could make someone a good billionaire. They get that way by stealing the rightful wages of their workers, among other nefarious schemes.
I learned a long time ago that anyone who calls themselves a “great” anything (and has to resort to such childish tactics to perpetuate the myth) is anything but.
There’s a Spanish saying for that: “dime de qué presumes y te diré de qué careces”
Tell me what you brag about and I’ll tell you what you lack.
Se cree mierda y no llega ni a pedo.
I make a lot of conlangs and am pretty okay at geography
It’s even dumber that his nom de sputum, is almost certainly a Resident Evil 4 reference. 🙄
Hopefully he speedruns himself into a hole in the ground
I’m glad that such a mature, well-adjusted person is running my country right now.
Hey, he bought and paid for it fair and square. He can run it into the ground as hard and fast as he wants.

Fr tho, who the fuck claims to have a ‘favorite letter’ to even begin with? Talk about the cringelord final boss…
I have a favourite letter. It was one of my resignation letters. Paraphrasing what it said at its core “I would like to take this opportunity to tell you how much I enjoyed working here and that I would miss the wise and intelligent guidance I received while employed here. Unfortunately my mother raised me not to lie, so I won’t.”
I still love that letter.
Of course it contained a great deal more content than “X”. (I mean seriously, he couldn’t even add “O” to the mix?)
Nice!
At breaking free of my last job after way too many years I used:
“To whom it may concern, I’m writing this letter to inform yiu that your employment services will no longer be required. . . However feel free to reach out for my consultant rates…”
I then quoted Maya Angelou: “I did then what I knew how to do. Now that I know better, I do better.” (HR person said she liked this quote. I think my usage of it whooshed over LOL)
And pretty sure I sealed the deal with “So long and thanks for all the fish!”
(It was a library lmao)
But “X”? That’s stupid. Unless there’s buried treasure under it.
