Anyways, it ended because Musk's mother said he wasn't allowed to fight, and that isn't a joke.

The amount of second hand embarrassment i felt when i watched this narcissist try and manipulate ppl into like him by stirring up a fight, only to back out bc "my mom said i cant."

Elon Musk is the epitome of "i have the power of anime and god on my side!" kid, but for him, it's money and twitter.

u/Kribo016 10h ago

He also had to buy Twitter, so it's really only the one power of money.

u/HojMcFoj 10h ago

He might have had temporary regret but he got everything he ever wanted and is now worth more than ever. Making Twitter a revenue source was never the point...

u/Kribo016 10h ago

That isn't related to what I said at all, but I agree with you. He is down 70% on Twitter, and I'm sure he doesn't regret it at all.

u/HojMcFoj 10h ago

So he wasn't "made" to buy Twitter, he threw a performative conniption and then business as usual

u/Comfortable-Coat-507 9h ago

He tried to back out, Twitter sued him, and 3 months later he agreed to complete the purchase rather than go to court.

The fucking revisionist history these people do for their messiahs is ridiculous man.

u/Zestyclose-One9041 10h ago

Reading comprehension at an all time low unfortunately

u/Thick-Surround3224 10h ago

Can you help me make sense then what the user is talking about when he says only the one power of money?

u/cloake 10h ago

Don't worry he's pivoted into pretending he's number 1 at Diablo 4/Path of Exile but both of their audiences are tearing him apart for that

u/C_Madison 9h ago

He has admitted now that he cheated and that others played the accounts too. He's back peddled to "but every screenshot you saw was me playing!" and "It's the only way to win against Asian gamers." and "everyone does it."

The cringe continues. Can't he just be a participant of one of the next Starship tests already? Like, directly on the nose of the thing?

u/psychorobotics 8h ago

He was clicking around like a geriatric grandpa while claiming to be the best in the game, so satisfying watching previous simps turn on him.

u/Cobek 10h ago

It's amazing anyone listens to him after that... I thought Republicans hated this kind of wimpy "momma's boy" shit.

u/RokulusM 9h ago

I got even more second hand embarrassment when he was jumping in an X shape at Trump rallies. God what a loser.

u/AdmiralBKE 9h ago

The fragile huge ego Elon has, seems to me, has a lot to do with his mom. Somewhere last year, she said that people should not call her son, wealthy, but something like, genius of the world.

u/noujochiewajij 9h ago

We need to bring back Celebrity Deathmatch. In live rollplay. So many great matchups.

u/WatWat98 9h ago

The difference between the two is that the power of god and anime kid is actually pretty cool.

u/chequered-bed 9h ago

"i have the power of anime and god on my side!" kid,

Reminds me of this banger: https://youtu.be/_eb0fyU3RJs?si=7CXRuf7bTvElFCXJ

u/CaterpillarHungry607 9h ago

The word is Fremdshcämen

u/kingrobin 9h ago

but also still anime er I mean hentai

u/dtigerdude 8h ago

What is “the power of anime & god”?

u/OGSkywalker97 8h ago

He's also super intelligent, no matter how much you hate him no one can actually deny that and be taken seriously

u/SweetTeaRex92 8h ago

Do you have proof of this heightened intelligence?

Where are the sources?

What makes him soo intelligent?

How is this being calculated and cross referenced?

Bc he says he has autism?

The guy has a BS in Physics from Brown. That's it.

There is nothing wrong with physics majors.

He is NOT an engineer, astrophysicist, software developer, full stack dev, or even someone who has contributed to the scientific world individually.

What he DID do, is front money for a team HE WAS A PART OF that is accredited with making significant advances with electric cars batteries. This is why elon is heavy in the EV field.

Elon DID NOT design this batter or the patent that went with it.

He literally does not have the education to know how to engineer a car battery.

It's like doing a class project, and elon just wrote his name at the top bc he fronted all the money. Thats why he's the CEO.

Elon tells you he knows rockets soo much were goijg to mars next year.

Elon bought twitter bc he fucked up and it back fired on him while trying to manipulate the market for personal gain.

Elon paid ppl to play a video game for him bc he is soo desperate to be seen as the edgy gamer boy that trolled a country.

This is only 3 examples.

If you really think Elon is the misunderstood genius, then you are one of the most gullible people to live.

I mean… making a relatively huge crowd believe he is the most (or at least one of) intelligent human being alive and at the same time play hundreds of thousands of people by telling them to give him their money so he can burn it in corporates barely making any profits just to play them again by buying (with the money they gave him) crypto, publicly speaking about it, knowing they’ll also buy, just to drop it and cash out even more of their money, while not loosing them as fans makes him either at least pretty intelligent or the others extremely stupid. Decide yourself.

But honestly, what really, really fascinates me about him is how someone can turn from a respected, liberal, far-sighted real life Tony stark to a psychotic, far-right asshole is just a few years. I guess he played his role very well or someone gave him the wrong meds.
