“Musk is notorious for sharing edgelord memes on X, the kinds of things that might be passed around by teenage boys”


“Musk is notorious for sharing edgelord memes on X, the kinds of things that might be passed around by teenage boys”

They do that because they’re not trying to have sex with the mean girls, and they’re not in the social hierarchy of the mean girls. So they are the only ones who can mock them, and they do — when they notice them at all.

Quote above is from Media Mean Girl Jill Filipovic, who is displaying a Margaret-Dumontish level of offended hauteur.

Plus, from the comments:

Elon also does nine impossible things before breakfast. He’s got a paralytic operating a computer with his mind. His rocket launches cost 10% of what other rockets cost. He catches boosters with chopsticks. He started a car company and a rocket company, two endeavors that shouldn’t have worked at all.

He’s exposing the dark money machinations that have been going on in government for decades, and cutting their frivolous waste, all by returning to first principles, which is his superpower.

So he posts dank memes. So what?

I’ll take Elon over our “sophisticated betters” posting fetish obsessions in their chat rooms.

All day, every day.
