This isn't even the last word in this nonsense.
The latest is that Musk, who clearly never knows when to shut the fuck up, called Zuck a coward when Zuck essentially offered Musk an "out" by saying to move on.
Hate both these fucks, but Zuck would destroy Elon. Time and again Zuck is giving Elon a way out of this and time and again Elon finds a way to look like an even bigger loser.
Getting beat by Zuck is going to push Elon past "deluded rich douchebag" to full-on Bond villain, I fear.
I'm gonna be honest, I have a small level of respect for Zuck. As long as I ignore the fact that Facebook has pioneered destroying online privacy that is ...
Despite being one of the richest men on the planet, and running one of the largest tech companies on the planet, he has actually been a good father/husband from what I understand. Also, he knows when to shut the fuck up and let his PR people tell him what to say.
Musk is insufferable. Arrogant, know-it-all, blabbering asshole. Reading through his Twitter is cringe, just in the last week he's retweeted like 5+ COVID conspiracy or "anti-woke" things.
I don't follow Zuck in the slightest bit but if he just shuts the fuck up and simply enjoy his billions of dollars that still makes him better than Elon. The single worst thing about Musk is that he came onto the scene acting like he was a friend of the Left and environmentalists and stuff like that, when he clearly was just using them.
Good thing no country would proliferate such a personality.
Right? Right!? /s
When Musk gets kicked out of art school, we'd better be ready
