Dude spent $44Bil just so he could behave like an insecure reddit mod…
And all of the Reddit moderators looked in awe and decided to behave just like him.
Only problem is that they aren’t getting the kind of money he does for it.
Not the mods, literally the admins. Steve idolizes Musk.
This community is so obsessed with Musk istg
You’re a shit father, Elon.
There, he can’t delete that.
You think he wouldn’t buy lemmy.world?
He might, but that’s the whole point of federation - there’s hundreds of other instances (including the one you’re using) that he can’t buy all at once. If one instance gets taken over, Lemmy as a whole is still strong.
Even if he buys the organization developing Lemmy, I have faith the community will fork it and everyone will stop using Musk’s version.
Yeh, if he bought twitter for 44B, and there are 400 instances then that is still 110M per instance if he were to do that again.
Even 10% of that amount is more than an instance is worth.
Sales can be made pretty quickly when they are massively overvalued.Some instances’ admins are not so easily bought! I hope, at least.
Meh, I say sell the insurance. It is relatively easy to spin up a new one. Let Elmo waste money.
Rich stupid guy doing things is not technology. Why is this community flooded with this guy doing or saying things?
I’m keen to join another tech focused community, with less non-tech spam, any recommendations?
Good luck. This stuff infects every technology related group I’ve seen here and on reddit.
Just need better moderation
A “burner” account? Never heard it called that before. “Sock puppet” or just “puppet” makes much more sense.
It’s pretty common for people to refer to these types of accounts as burners on Twitter. I recall the GM of the 76ers getting in trouble about 5-10 years ago for having sock puppet accounts on Twitter and all the reporting referred to them as burners.
Drug culture is more well known among normies than nerd culture, is what we’re saying here.
Yes. That’s exactly what’s happening here. Big shout out to drugs for winning the war…
How. Fucking. Pathetic. Do you have to be. To have an entire army of sycophants. And that’s still not enough for your ego.
It honestly makes me genuinely sad. He definitely has complexes and holes in his soul to conduct this behavior. Doesn’t excuse him from being a complete asshole though.
Why are you sad about this piece of shit? He’d never pay you the same mind.
I revel in the insecurities and smallness of these exploitative, parasitic wastes of air.
You can always feel empathy. The more you try the better person you’ll become.
Don’t be like sad rich guy, be better.
Billionaire’s aren’t people and do not deserve our empathy. I am better. I don’t exploit thousands to hundreds of thousands of people’s lives for my own personal, shortsighted gain.
It’s not about them.
Adrian and Musk were on the same twitter space call once and even conversed a bit. Maybe that video was fake or just really well done by him with voice changers, but honestly I think it’s just a coincidence that these two idiots sound alike.
Yes it would be really funny if musk did this but reddit also is going wild over this and I think in the end it will just for once turn out that musk Musk didn’t do something.
Found elrods sock puppet account on lemmy
Other than the Delaware thing and saying shitty things on Twitter, has Musk actually done anything newsworthy since he purchased Twitter?
He blew up a starship test because he overrode engineers, thought he knew better than them, and didn’t install a blast deflector under the rocket. It made a giant hole in the launch pad and the concrete debris damaged the rocket.
- there are enough people on elons dick for this to be a legit account
