Sums up Musk's twitter adventures pretty well

@Myesyats still think this guy is normal?

He deleted it after realizing how terrible that sounds.

Well he is definitely not "normal", but rather a quite unique individual. Dont think I ever claimed he was "normal" in particular, he is a lot of things but definitely not your normal, average guy

I have successfully tailored my twitter feed to not see any political content and his posts dont come up either. I think twitter brings out the worst in people and he fell for it too

By not normal i meant he does have a sick sense of humor at times, that rapey tweet about Taylor Swift was also in bad taste.

Could be just his autistic side speaking though. feels like he tries too hard to sound edgy but he's not good enough at being able to read the room. i wonder if he'll eventually get himself in trouble for these comments, FBI definitely could have considered that as incitement to violence.

He does have some level of Aspergers, so it shouldn’t come as a surprise that he can be socially awkward at times

feels like he tries too hard to sound edgy

I think this is it and I also suspect it comes from the fact that he sometimes goes too far and tweets dumb shit on purpose to demonstrate that you are allowed to say ANYTHING on twitter and it is completely allowed. As a way of promoting his "100% freedom of speech" narrative or something, he wants to show he won't hold any punches whatsoever and get away with it

That's not completely true though, it's free speech for me but not for thee judging by the fact that he has banned hundreds of leftist accounts who dare to criticize him.

[Myesyats]

Yeah i know, but I believe that's his thought process behind posting these "edgy" jokes, meaning that's how it computes in his autistic brain

[Arquitecto]

guys, you need to understand Elon his entire life was a social outcast and reject as all it takes to know that is looking at him in his 20s, 30s et all to know a lot of his twitter is essentially making up for the lack of social proof he had and a half baked mid-life crisis to be 'down with the kids'

have empathy
