Elon is writing a book where the protagonist Xitler was sent back in time to stop Xews from bringing about Armageddon. Its called the aXis of Timelers

I think it'll actually be Xarmageddon, which is like Armageddon, but much more woke.

I'm surprised he hasn't changed his name to Elon Mux by now.

He could go with Exon and then buy the company, or maybe sue them for having his name,

[–] [email protected] 12 points 9 months ago

Lol, I love that name for him. If I don't forget all about it, I'm gonna start using that.

I haven't actually seen what he agreed with...did the person he agree with actually say that?

Do you have a screenshot of the tweet he agreed with? People keep talking about it and saying that it was bigoted against jewish folks, but no one has actually said what was said or shown it.

I just follow cat and dog accounts on twitter and almost never post anything.

I know this is just a meme, but mini rant time here.

"Free speech" literally just means the government can't arrest, censor, or penalize you for just for the things you express. Of course, there are exceptions for public safety, fraud, etc..

If Musk loses advertising revenue, that is the advertisers exercising their free speech in a free market, and deciding who they associate with.

These crybabies like Musk are upset at having consequences, and throwing a tantrum about their freedom of speech is an intentional red herring and attempt to recontextualize reality so they end up being the victim of some ephemeral bully.

The richest and most powerful people on the planet are not being persecuted.

They are just not used to being called out on their bullshit and are too weak and immature to accept being told they are wrong sometimes.

«Me plugging my ears as I walk by crazy right wing protestors»

"Ahhh! You're not listening to me! You're not respecting my freedom of speech! And if you tell your friends that I'm an asshole and to avoid my ramblings, then you hate free speech!"
