Like many people that donā€™t understand the internet he has gotten confused thinking that the users of Twitter are his customers while ignoring his actual customers - the advertisers.

(Note - it would be cool to have a social media network that did that, but that is not Twitter and itā€™s not what Elon wants to build either)

Without mentioning the specifics of the China protests, Elon Musk tweeted early on Monday morning that ā€œthe amount of pro psy ops on Twitter is ridiculous!ā€ before joking that ā€œat least with new Verified they will pay $8 for the privilege.ā€ He followed up with an image of Pepe the Frog accompanied by the slogan ā€œI donā€™t care about this particular psyop, honestly.ā€

The company did not respond to a request for comment from The Verge, but is widely reported to have disbanded its press office. However, a current Twitter employee told The Washington Post that the company is aware of the situation and is working to fix it.

Funny that someoneā€™s trying to respond to The Washington Post.

This isnā€™t exactly the top reason to criticize Musk but that bedside table photo he tweeted out is pathetic and disturbing on several levels.

One of the comments on that article:

Muskā€™s infatuation with lines of code written has outgrown creepiness and now seems quasi-religious. I donā€™t understand how much he doesnā€™t understand.

But he has guns! Like, next to his bed, so he can look at them while heā€¦thinksā€¦in bed.

I am most surprised at the lack of tissues and hand lotion beside them

I mean obviously the richest man in the world can afford a level of security that makes it ridiculous for him to have them for any other reason

Iā€™m sure that he does have a gun fetish but plenty of super-rich people are also afraid that their own security team might rise against them, and are looking into technologies like ā€œdisciplinary collarsā€ in case things turn south. Iā€™m not even joking.

That pistol in the Washington-crossing-the-Delaware case looks like something one would buy from the most American of all home shopping channels at 3 am.

One of the popular responses to that pathetic photo is ā€œnever before has a man been this divorced,ā€ along with other references to ā€œdivorced dad energyā€ and photos of Kirk Van Houten.

Even the gun nuts arenā€™t impressed because apparently neither gun is actually functional. One of them is from a video game.
