    I mean, I hate musk as much as everyone here, but it’s deceptive trying to pass a one-year-old tweet as relevant to current events…

    If you check the context, elon was goofing around , clearly not taking himself seriously, replying to a tweet of a photo of him holding a katana: https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1726989224073896365

          I guess I’m a simpleton then. If one of my friends said this seriously, I’d pull them aside and let them know that it was beyond cringy and to pull it way the fuck back.

          On the other hand, if the said it while obviously joking around after posting a pic of them posing with a katana or some dumb shit, I would think “lol, fucking nerd” and appreciate that they could still bring out the kid in them.

          Don’t get me wrong, Elon is a reprehensible, inexcusable, disgusting, excuse for a human. But being a goofball isn’t why.
