“My firstborn child died in my arms,” Musk wrote in another post. “I felt his last heartbeat. I have no mercy for anyone who would use the deaths of children for gain, politics or fame.”

But after a waiting period...

Gotta drive up that traffic and revenue somehow. He's done sold his soul a long time ago, nothing to lose at this point.

The media need to stop feeding the troll.

the troll

Singular?

Well yeah - there are other trolls that the media regularly feed, including the felonious Republican frontrunner, and they really need to stop feeding all of them.

But Musk is arguably the most blatant of all of the high profile trolls, and this particular one is blatant even by his already awful standards, thus the singular.

But yeah...

I hope he does and loses even more advertisers. Just keep digging that hole, dickhead.

Phoney Stark contradicting himself, backing reactionary conspiracist grifters, and running his mouth, announcing shitty decisions that'll further devalue his companies?

It'll be news when he's not doing this dumb bullshit.

Birds of a feather and all that.

Speaking of feather, what in the blazes is he wearing?

It's an aviator jacket - you know, because Phony Stark has to prove he's not a phony.

Not gonna lie, kinda wanna dress up as this next Halloween

I mean, sure... billionaire parasites are some of the most evil things out there, but c'mon - even Halloween has standards.

What is this turn of phrase called? Like, hey, thats not fair, he way more evil than this second evillest thing of all time, lol

Not downvoting the article but I'm done reading about what the emerald cockwaffle is up to.

“I haven’t been in the news for hours! Time to say something infuriating!”

Good job Elon: $44 Billion for a personal outlet that has people and advertisers alike fleeing it in droves with every word uttered.

Okay, we get it, we get it! You're a white supremacist! We don't need more proof!

Elon Musk considers a lot of idiotic ideas.

I think he has one of those wheels with stupid ideas on. And he just spins it every day.
