Will the FBI knock on his door like they did Kathy Griffin?
No, Elon, it wasn’t the medium that was at fault. You just have an awful sense of humor.
“Oh it was really funny in the conversation, you just had to be there to appreciate the context.” No, it wasn’t though. This isn’t about the “no place for political violence” schtick either, it just wasn’t a good joke.
Lots of people are able to be funny on Twitter. Or, they have been in the past.
Is this what we’re doing now, writing and deleting treasonous shit?
“Well, one lesson I’ve learned is that just because I say something to a group and they laugh doesn’t mean it’s going to be all that hilarious as a post on X,” he said in a follow-up post early Monday. “Turns out that jokes are WAY less funny if people don’t know the context and the delivery is plain text."
I knew people like this in real life, who’d say something horrible and follow it up with “It’s just a joke,” but only if they ‘lose’ and are called out on it.
They’re slimey jerks, and it’s utterly miserable to even be around them. And I don’t understand why so many would worship/follow Elon and dwell on Twitter for it.
