I think the best part is if Elon is staging the Deus Ex version, it shows he took the wrong lessons from those games about Technofascists.

If it was just a parrot the joke would not be nearly hardcore enough.

The babylonbee cracks me up cause back in the day my Christian dad would share the cringey yet neutral church jokes from it on facebook, then it all the sudden swung into full chuddom. Did somebodies kid get the keys to the account at some point?

The Babylon Bee was started by Adam Ford, who you may have come across in his webcomic, Adam4Dcomics, an ugly The Oatmeal ripoff that vacillated between jokes for evangelicals and essays in defense of homophobia and misogyny, replete with whining that actually Christians are the oppressed ones.

He at least had the sense to stick to the weird niche jokes, but once it made an audience, some chuds offered to buy it, and he immediately cashed out. Maybe those guys sold it to someone even worse, can’t be asses to check. It was always run by lovely dudes, but it was the latest owner who decided to get rid of all the niche jokes to make room for more procedurally generated transphobia.

He is renting some huge as gently caress mansion for himself. He doesn't ~own a house~ in the same way that your company's CEO doesn't own a car (the fully kitted out Porsche Cayenne is technically the company's car, bought/leased with company money)

There’s some basic 2bed/2bath style ranch house I see posted a lot that it’s Elon’s “real house”, to show how he’s just humble and like all of us. I don’t know where it started but presumably Elon endorsed it at some point.

It's just his continued regression into his true form: a jackass, know-it-all teenage boy that thinks contrarianism makes him smart.

"Actually, caring about things is bad and dumb" is a cornerstone of that sort of that kind of guy. Accordingly, being a dumb loving teenager, the lack of theory of mind and critical thought means that anyone that DOES care is being insincere.

Funnily, I also associate smug libertarianism, "I'm a Real Gamer" (loving all of us millennials play video games) affectations, and an obsession with the Founding Fathers :patriot: with that fuckin' guy.

I didn't read the last 1500 posts but mastodon has a series engagement problem if it wants to be the twitter successor beyond the niche server communities that already existed pre Elon. Scrolling through the federated feed (basically showing posts from all different servers) 99% of the posts regardless of content have zero replies and zero boosts (retweets).

Cant imagine people are going to stick very long considering half the point of social media is attention seeking.

What if, and hear me out here, Twitter was always garbage trash that only got popular because journos and celebrities liked it, and we don't need a replacement one?

SpaceX bought out an entire tiny town called Boca Chica in texas to be their new rocket test site. There were no mansions in the town for him to take over. He stays there when he's in Boca Chica doing his iron man cosplay, probably only a few weeks per year.

It's his "real house" in that it's his official place of residence -- texas has no state income tax.

Most likely not cleaning up.

Sounds like he needs to find someone to manage his hiring to horse pipeline for him. I'm afraid that I have too many morals to take such a position, but I'm sure there's some less than savory Muskite that would do it for him.
