Elon Musk’s ‘fund your legal bill’ tweet is a brand new level of bullshit

Sure, I do know he doesn’t care about hypocrisy — he’s simply in it for the eye, and I assume I’m giving it to him! However I believe it’s price mentioning that this tweet is a brand-new degree of BS.

The place was this limitless authorized protection fund when Elon Musk noticed a person he is aware of personally firing seven engineers for criticizing their employer on Twitter?

Oh, wait, I’ve received it backwards! Elon Musk was the person who fired these seven engineers. It was him.

Now, you would possibly argue this isn’t fairly a brand new degree of hypocrisy for Musk as a result of he was additionally the one who steered that Twitter ought to NOT have a “lords & peasants system” 5 brief months before making damn sure that Twitter had exactly that. You may also notice that the person who promised to rid Twitter of bots and make it a free speech platform and a public city sq. appears to have had the alternative impact.

However I respectfully submit there’s an opportunity that, like his whole $44 billion guess on Twitter, these had been simply Musk completely out of his depth. However he didn’t actually simply neglect firing Eric Frohnhoefer, Sasha Solomon, Yao Yue, Nick Robinson-Wall, Jesse Feinman, Billy Becker and Lana Nelson over their tweets and retweets, did he?
