The chapo reddit thread is hilarious, they’re all convinced he was bad but I think Elon’s a joke, and he reacted appropriately.

ed zitron used to have a podcast called “Scumbag” with felix and iirc the overwhelming consensus was “wow ed zitron sucks”

I liked ed and I think it started off strong but then halfway through he was definitely far too mad to be funny. it's like snl lib comedians trying to own the chuds or visa-versa where its just not funny because they're fuming

i did like the half-dozen somethingawful callouts. it's very funny that these dead gay comedy forums haven't been relevant in like 15 years and yet receive a fairly outsized callout on chapo all the time

He was good with Felix and Will, but yeah, it does seem like he was just frothing at the mouth at a certain point.

I just want to turn the ed zitron dial down like 30%. One less cup of coffee for Ed Zitron before he casts pod, maybe a quick walk around the park with a cherished friend.

I didn't like the guy on the recent Musk Chapo. Way too mad at Musk, and he seems like one of the morons who literally only realized Musk is bad/dumb after he took over Twitter. I lol'd at the part where he was like "why won't the other tech CEOs speak out?!"

the thing about the tech ceos was clearly rhetorical

But have you considered whether the child murdered by the driver of that truck was riding an oversized bike?!?! Children riding oversized bikes are the scourge of our roadways!!
The first part about AI was interesting but I feel like Elon Musk is well-trod ground at this point. Is there any real new outrage or is he just continuing to exist in the exact same form as he has for years yet somehow multiplying outrage

People mad about accounts they shouldn't be following posting things they have no interest in, and advocating for them to be done away with on an administrative level. Basically forums wars but the subforum in question is one of the most popular sites on the internet. Those contrary opinions simply shouldn't be allowed to exist

An important part of the Ed Zitron canon is that he was a marketing and advertising guy by trade before pivoting to an online politricks career. Whether that means he's a coddled dipshit or feigning rage for clout I'll leave as an exercise to the reader. I heard he had a podcast with Drew Toothpaste for awhile where all he talked about was how much he loved his Peloton, however, which surely factors in somewhere.

He's pretty prolific in starting new projects, I'm afraid I don't know his whole catalog. My primary source of familiarity is when he was having a series of psychotic breaks because his webcomic got popular, some of them revolving around the derealizing experience of the grocery store.
