    I don’t think anyone can sue him over using X. It’s too generic of a name/icon to trademark

      And I’m guessing in your spare time you’re calling people who call out racism racists.

        That was about the dumbest thing you could have replied with. Impressive.

        Except… You don’t call out racism by posting more racism? This is just a post about making fun of Elon Musk masquerading as a post complaining about posts that make fun of Elon Musk.

        At the end of the day it’s just more Musk.

          Depends on whether you believe all PR is good PR or not.

          Reminding the world the Muskrat is a garbage person boosts his recognition but it also attacks his reputation. And if nothing else it has become very clear he both hates criticism and is terminally online, so he might even see this and get some bad vibes.

          At the end of the day, isn’t making a billionaire slightly unhappy worth it?

            The problem is that an increasing number of people don’t give a shit. I don’t want my social media to be filled with some rich snob because “it makes him slightly unhappy”, especially because Musk also more than likely doesn’t give a shit. We’re all just circle jerking over the same damn guy that we can’t seem to stop talking about. He’s like the new Justin Bieber.

            It’s just very silly.

            So many people complain abiut constantly reading about musk, so then they make posts and communities centered around musk. It’s dumb as hell.

                No, I’m not confused in the slightest. Often the criticizers are also complaining about hearing about him…while making subs and communities around criticizing…therefore they see it all the time. Rage bait and complaining is what these people want
