It's amazing how so often the only proof right wing media has that they're being "persecuted" is that no-one is listening to their BS.

This whole X thing confuses me a lot. In my field of work we use X constantly when an information is missing in a draft. Each time I see "X" I have the feeling that one word is missing.
It seems to be just because the letter is often used in porn so he finds it funny. Apparently he renamed some of the conference rooms in their HQ to things like "seXy" and "eXciting". This sounds stupid but he did buy the shares overpriced so the value of the shares could be a weed joke (he set the value at 420 or something like that).

I've... seen things you wouldn't believe. A neck broken by lighting a single weight. I've seen the modern da Vinci glitter, at the cybertruck's broken gate. I've seen the life of a jar of honey.
All those Xs will be lost, like tears in rain. Time to die.

It’s an unfair fight given the Zuck is made up of hydraulics but I think Musk is probably appropriate for the first victim of a robot murder

Why is he so obsessed with Zuckerberg? I don’t get it. And I don’t get this whole fight thing he keeps going on about, which quite clearly isn’t going to happen either.

Facebook launched some ersatz Twitter alternative recently, I think.

That and maybe he thinks Zuckerberg is an easy target to farm popularity points... all the while the Meta CEO being a bit of martial artist makes him jealous and he pathologically wants to one up him.

I think he's dramatically wrong on all counts but given sycophant Lex Fridman indulges and enables him, it plays well with that crowd ?

All of that plus you can see he wants to impress his loser acolytes by having public “bantz” with one of the world’s richest/most influential men.

combining both!

I sometimes wonder how Elon-stans live with the duality that makes them believe "he's basically a god on earth that is driving the species foward" with the obvious "he acts like a 12 year old, and is delusional". But then I realise Elon-stans are essentially mirrors of their own self and then all seems right with the world.

Zuckerberg: "I have literally offered a date to fight"

Musk: "He's a chicken"

It's arguments a child would make.

When he does something stupid, just claim that he was trolling the entire time and it's actually amazingly smart because of this. This solves that problem.

Half the tweets shared here on the caf aren't loading for me. Is this happening to everyone?

The fecker probably saw the amount of people like me, who’ve blocked him.
