where is this going?

Elon Musk has said he's about context on tweets, so here's context for these shirts: They came from Twitter's Black employee resource group and were popularized by @jack, who wore a version around to conferences to support the group (and was sometimes ridiculed for it). pic.twitter.com/Lw7aXJSBke

I already posted this in the quitting twitter thread, but icymi: https://www.latimes.com/business/story/2022-03-25/black-tesla-employees-fremont-plant-racism-california-lawsuit

I guess some things don't need reinventing

Musk's overt anti-Black racism, especially as a manager of Black workers, is well established. It's a real failure that this has been basically shrugged off or subsumed under a "Musk is a troll lol" narrative that makes it seem clownish

There was a long segment on NPR yesterday, interviewing some people about the Twitter situation. A former employee (a contractor free to talk, as opposed to former employees silenced by NDAs), that reporter from the Verge, and this VC investor Musk bootlicker with fingers in both Twitter and Tesla who was downright embarrassing to listen to. After defending Musk and his methods and stressing, Twitter aside, how well Tesla is run, the host had to point out that, well, no, point of fact, Tesla has gotten more than its share of complaints, specifically about work culture and racism.

god he really is the world's worst poster. just absolute cringe

also note the times on those, Stephen didn't bite so he posted again like 12 hours later

King I’m sure has him on mute.

Sorry, who did this? 😂 pic.twitter.com/uhP0moZJqQ

Elon's mom reposted that which is really gross considering that he's almost certainly sockpuppeting her account

I somehow missed that Musk stole a dril tweet and cropped out his name...the guy is so lame. https://t.co/ZIpKdbhf2x

You come at the king, you best not miss

you can hardly blame him look what happens when he tries to make his own jokes

only able to shoot himself with this musketry

God so cringe. Elon should learn to stay in his lane, no matter what pedestrian trolling is thrown at him

tbf his lane is being a lame who is also promoting the murder of queer people

TBH I paid approximately zero attention to this dude before the past couple of weeks and hadn't formed an opinion about him one way or another (aside from a general 'billionaires = douchenozzles') but I am definitely forming a very strong opinion about him now and it isn't a favorable opinion and I have a feeling there are lots and lots of people in shoes similar to the ones I'm wearing. Is this a 'any publicity is good publicity' thing? Because I'm not sure that's always actually a thing.

Same.

Good point lag∞n, but I was only trying to set someone else up for a Tesla joke

ha cant believe i missed that, too mad @musk lol

Even Reddit seems to be turning on him

geeeeeez it always gets worse

New: Here's the text message from @elonmusk telling SBF he's "welcome" to roll his public shares into Musk's twitter, as Liz reported https://t.co/7yS5166PtP pic.twitter.com/UpjC4GfBBW

I don’t believe that Elon did not know who was texting him. I think he was negging him because SBF wasn’t putting up more money. This is the dorkiest soap opera ever.

fwiw "So long as I don't have to have a laborious blockchain debate" is the only likeable thing musk has ever written, and it was in ref to a meeting with SBF. https://danluu.com/elon-twitter-texts/#62

hahah of course michael grimes is the SBF connect

the hilarious part is that Musk got so unbelievably triggered by that exchange that he went back to it over 3 years later and replied. talk about rent-free pic.twitter.com/oznRQZwcJi

app stores have in the past removed social apps that didnt do enough moderation

There was a once famous political formation that styled itself as neither right nor left while worrying about civilizational suicide. https://t.co/npQvtEdETQ

Re app stores, I feel like the only actually good thing that could come out of that is a coked up litigious billionaire taking on apple re its App Store policies.

i have to admit having some sympathy for Apple's dictatorial control over its app store because i see it as a kind of content moderation and i'm pretty convinced that the only content moderation that works is total dictatorship

sure but it does not work in the case of apple. the app store is full of literal scams and gambling adverts.

lmao

If Apple & Google boot Twitter from their app stores, @elonmusk should produce his own smartphone. Half the country would happily ditch the biased, snooping iPhone & Android. The man builds rockets to Mars, a silly little smartphone should be easy, right?

I certainly hope it does not come to that, but, yes, if there is no other choice, I will make an alternative phone
