While I'd normally support someone telling Disney to go fuck itself, it doesn't mean much coming from Musk.

Was he ever rumoured to be a pedo or anything like that?

He did have known links to Epstein. And his accusations against the cave rescuer really came across like some intense projection.

Seriously. There was zero other reason for Elon to call that guy a pedo.

And don't forget his creepy twitter account where he roleplays as his son, who is a toddler 👀

[–] Zagorath@aussie.zone 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Is he doing specific creepy things on that, or do you just find the idea of doing that in general creepy?

Because personally, while I find it a little odd, I wouldn't call it creepy. I know people who do that for their pets, for example.

The account didnt make a lot of public posts, but the ones it did were worrisome to say the least. Before he deleted it there were definitely some questionable things the child account was responding to, like a comment about someones vaginal grip. To me this is a whole different disturbing direction than some parent making a cutesy fake account for their kid or pet. I've followed accounts like that and this was not one of those.

Many people are saying it.

That means it MUST be true!
