It’s a fake guys. Don’t be so naive.
Fact-check
I should've probably clarified this is satire - what's most amusing to me, however, is the fact that this requires a fact check to begin with
My first thought was "I don't think it's real, but it could be"
Man is more unpredictable than a baboon on a lethal dose of flakka
yeah my first thought was fake, but then.... he's so fucking stupid and insane... whatever. Never really used twitter, def dont now. Just watchin with popcorn. Enjoying the fall.
Right? If I saw a screenshot from Elon saying "I believe the solution to world hunger is to grind orphans and poor people into sausages," I'd have to check if it were true because dude is unhinged.
Is that not why he's on such a mission to increase birth rates?
the real one isn't better tbh (tl;dr: he originally tweeted that 'cis' and 'cisgender' are slurs, also many links are down because of his whole rate limit policy)
That’s far worse. I’ll take egotistical vanity over transphobia any day.
Literally any words could be made a slur dependent on how you use them. It's the ones that are near universally a slur, such as the N word, that anyone should care about.
The fact he didn't feel the need to censor cisgender would be enough to tell you on what level that "slur" actually is.
or he just wanted to use slurs. i mean it's elon musk, you can't discount that possibility
So it's fine to spam "Grimes left you"? Gotcha
