Personally I think Musk is the opposite of that made-up Yoho quote... He seems to care entirely too much about what everyone thinks of him, it's really bizarre.

It's probably something a Klan member tweeted, so he's trying to hide the source. He's catching on.

As somebody who thought Chappelle was funny, he just isn’t anymore. He has lost his touch.

It's no great accomplishment to speak truth to power if you are the one with the power.

https://twitter.com/user/status/1602113254360162304 Maybe he is right. Why should I have to call him a "he?" I prefer him to go by "narcissistic ####wad", which he should be OK with. Perhaps the rest of the press can switch to something more appropriate than "he" to refer to them.

But then, if we did that on Twitter he'd have us banned, losing our free speech rights..it's all so murky!

He doesn't really think things through, does he?

If I meet some guy named Richard and he asks me to call him Dick - I will do it even though I think its odd. I can spend 20 minutes of my day debating him about it or I can just be polite and call him Dick. Seems like a simple decision.

He's like 50% of the way to full on Kanye. Or probably 75% by his recent tweets.

Well yeah it is if you have basic respect and compassion for other people.

Also lol @ Fauci killing millions. I would really like to know if he actually thinks that or just says that to jangle the proverbial keys in front of his followers. Not sure which is worse.

can only speak for myself, but to me, the anti-pronouns crowd has always been way more obnoxious than the pronouns crowd.

with Elon, the guy is going down the Q rabbit hole so quickly I wouldn't be surprised if he stormed a pizza place in two weeks or so.

There was a Dick on our audit committee.

He was a real stand up guy.

Chapelle was the best for a long time.

I guess money and fame do that to a guy.

Something something living long villain.

No, I think he's just catching on that a lot of his sources are alt right or Nazi adjacent, or grifters and after having it pointed out he's more careful now.

Bot had his algorithm patched to version 2.3a. Going to need to wait for the 2.5 release to obfuscate some words so simple sentence search fact checking fails.
