“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.

Who knows if anything he says is true.

[-] Rottcodd@lemmy.world 53 points 10 months ago

The media need to stop feeding the troll.

[-] tsonfeir@lemm.ee 18 points 10 months ago

We need to stop allowing posts about Elon musk on Lemmy.

[-] Alto@kbin.social 11 points 10 months ago

The great part about the fediverse is that you're more than welcome to start your own instance with just that rule!

[-] tsonfeir@lemm.ee 5 points 10 months ago

Ahh yes. So I can be the only one on it and talk to myself.

[-] TheOneCurly@lemmy.theonecurly.page 12 points 10 months ago

I'm the only one on my instance and I'm talking to you.

[-] tsonfeir@lemm.ee 2 points 10 months ago

Does your instance ban Elon musk talk? Hehe.

[-] Alto@kbin.social 8 points 10 months ago

How do you think every instance started

[-] BeigeAgenda@lemmy.ca 4 points 10 months ago

You forget the federation part, by default your instance is part of the fediverse and you can communicate with everyone.

[-] tsonfeir@lemm.ee -1 points 10 months ago

But then I have to hear about Elon. So, that seems like a lot of work for the same thing 🙃

[-] clif@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

So... your instance will be a new Twitter clone then?

[-] tsonfeir@lemm.ee 1 points 10 months ago

Xes it will

[-] cheese_greater@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago

The cold, bald truth

[-] Rottcodd@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

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...

"Spoiled emerald heir hatches new scheme to make people look at him"

[-] lanbanger@kbin.social 36 points 10 months ago

This sounds entirely on brand for Nazi Musk.

[-] nicetriangle@kbin.social 21 points 10 months ago

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

[-] WaxedWookie@lemmy.world 14 points 10 months ago

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.

[-] masquenox@lemmy.world 13 points 10 months ago

Birds of a feather and all that.

[-] cheese_greater@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

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

[-] masquenox@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

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

[-] cheese_greater@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

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

[-] masquenox@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago

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

[-] cheese_greater@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

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

[-] girlfreddy@sh.itjust.works 12 points 10 months ago

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!”

[-] Nougat@kbin.social 5 points 10 months ago

Fascists gonna fasc.

[-] comador@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

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

[-] cheese_greater@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago
[-] ArugulaZ@kbin.social 3 points 10 months ago

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

[-] MushuChupacabra@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Elon Musk considers a lot of idiotic ideas.

[-] r00ty@kbin.life 4 points 10 months ago

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

[-] helenslunch@feddit.nl 1 points 10 months ago

CNBC making a 2 word Xit into an entire article...

[-] BlackSkinnedJew@lemmynsfw.com 0 points 10 months ago
