Phony Stark needs to be called out on this. It’s creepy as hell.
😳 🤮
One who famously has a boyfriend at that. Imagine seeing Musk get his face beat in by a pro football player
I would, but I promised myself I masturbated enough times today.
At least you're not giving anyone a child from all that activity. I'm proud of you, keep at it! Together we can!.... master bate separately.
He chickened out of fighting Zuckerberg as well, who does Judo and is also a robot.
and slip in his own piss puddle on the way out...
I'd pay good money to see Travis Kelce run a play on Elon Musk
Which one? §§€ππ√π or ®°•[||||]¢?
Robert'); DROP TABLE Students;--
Thank you for giving me the first belly laugh of my day. 🤣
He’s a creep. He’s a weirdo.
What the hell is he doing here?
He don't care if it hurts, he wanna have control.
*record scratch*
🎶Go on, take the money and run 🎶
AROOOooooo lawd
I'm hearing this to the tune of Bitch by Meredith Brooks.
He's a creep, he's a weirdo,
He's a child, he's a dildo,
He's a sinner, he's a taint,
He should feel ashamed.
Not “Creep” by Radiohead, which is what I was quoting?
Since I don't know Radiohead at all, no. Oops.
Just imagine the impact if she took her accounts to pixelfed / mastadon. You'd get all the fans to follow her.
Hell, she could create her own server and be immediately one of the most popular in the network.
I think this is less a statement on Swift fans and moreso fediverse than you realize.
Yeah, I've seen quite a few users here take that to mean that people are idiots vs fediverse being hard to use.
She would have to make her own server. She would overwhelm and destroy those sites.
She would have to make her own server.
THAT. Is genius.
lemmy.swifties,io or whatever. Yes.
OP suggested @swiftie.world and OP is right
the new twitter is wherever the critical mass of users go. so far that is nowhere.
That place is Bluesky
Twitter had something like 500 million users at its peak, and is likely still In the high 300s/low 400s.
Adding 2 million out of the projected 20 million Brazilian twitter users still isn't it. Twitter is still where the critical mass is, just maybe not for Brazil due to external factors.
I don't visit Twitter, how do I stop hearing about every little toxic bullshit line Elon has to say?
An XKCD-style filter would probably do the trick: https://www.explainxkcd.com/...
He speaks like this because there's no consequences. His lawyers must be pissed cause anyone with a harassment case against him can just put that tweet up to help their case lmao.
I did not think in 2024 I'd have "jock football player beats up tech nerd" and I'll be rooting for the meat head.
Instead of Zuck vs Musk, maybe we ought to see Kelce vs Musk. That is offensive in so many ways.
Would have to be PPV, I think network TV would shudder to show the aftermath.
oh, that would be something that would make me use PPV, or, at least temporarily, get a streaming service.
She should've bounced right back about accepting his trans kid he seems to have distanced himself from
Good call.
Publicly, yes. Elon raping babies into women is well known however.
Google says he has Asperger's, which would make this, eh, kinda normal.
When I was 16, I wouldn't be able to have a mutually consensual romantic conversation without saying something that cringed even myself out remembering it the next day.
im sorry for being this rude,
but Fuck of with that bullshit excuse.
I have Asbergers aswell, and have been arround a lot of other Autists.
even the heaviest cases i know would have known better than to post such vile shit.
This is not some akward mistake while attempting to flirt,
this is at best yelling vile and inappropriate shit at a complete stranger,
and at worst it could be considered a thinly veiled rape theat.
As somebody with Aspergers i feel downright insulted that you attempted to blame this on 'the sperg'.
And in addition to that,
hes not some 16 year old kid,
hes in his 50s for gods sake.
im sorry for being this rude, but Fuck of with that bullshit excuse.
No you're not, and no I won't.
I have Asbergers aswell, and have been arround a lot of other Autists.
Well, I hadn't, except for my sister, so, especially back then, I was desperately trying to have social things other have by effort.
Going into offensive in that could look similar to what Musk posted.
and at worst it could be considered a thinly veiled rape theat.
At worst. I first took it as a very awkward attempt to seem magnanimous\friendly, plus Musk's weird ideas about healthy relationships.
Anyway, can he fulfill that threat were it a threat? No? Then it'd be similar to what 4chan inhabitants write. Inappropriate is not the same as evil. Though I guess he and the Internet would both benefit from cutting ties.
As somebody with Aspergers i feel downright insulted that you attempted to blame this on ‘the sperg’.
Well, sorry, but since I wasn't aiming for you, irrelevant.
hes in his 50s for gods sake.
The say older people are more like kids, ha-ha-ha
You are way too fucking serious and judgemental.
Blocked
Yeah I don't care.
You dont buy a megaphone, say some wild shit, then to blame it on your disorder.
OK, please care even less so to not litter my inbox
Because you seem to care a lot to reply! Hit the block button then
The dude has had long enough to learn how to mask. He knows what he's saying and what it means. Don't make excuses and definitely do not try to besmirch what little positivity autistic people have these days
The dude has had long enough to learn how to mask.
Autistic people go to therapy to stop masking. Masking is wrong and bad.
Fucking creepy weirdos
I like perverted better in this case
And not even the cool or fun perverted. I'm always hesitant to kink shame, but forcing your kink on someone else, even just conversationally, is incredibly awful.
If there's a God, we can start calling them "weird losers" in November.
Christian here. Can confirm that he checks a lot of the boxes for me. It's terrifying to me how completely the alleged Church has accepted him.
It's terrifying to me how completely the alleged Church has accepted him.
FWIW, that’s one of the main checkboxes for the Antichrist. If he had no followers and got rejected, the Antichrist wouldn’t be a threat.
Weird is an understatement to threat of rape by the richest human alive.
Is he being a weirdness shield for the GOP? Like every time we make fun of Trump or Vance he has to do something like this to distract people?
Elon "I know how to distract everyone from making fun of Donny and JD. I will say creepy things to a female. Remind all women about the creepy men in their lives."
Fucking gold star idea, Elon.
"Masterful gambit, sir!"
People give them way too much credit
Nah I don't think it's really true, but it's funny to imagine.
This does not deserve a headline. We need to stop paying attention to this tool.
I agree, but at some point we're just feeding into the concept that any exposure is good exposure.
I wish that this guy would just disappear.
No, the richest person in the world publicly threatening rape against the most famous woman at the moment for endorsing the opposite candidate from him should be a headline and should be spoken as such. A threat of rape.
I wouldn't fuck with Travis Kelce's girlfriend.
Screw that. I wouldn't fuck with Taylor Swift. She is "fuck you and your little people laws" rich.
Don't worry, Mommy Musk will protect him from getting into a fight.
Taylor already had security that would make you shit your pants. Only difference is that Travis would do it for free (and Jason would join in without needing details because he is just that kind of ride or die brother)
Rape threat.
I think he means "I will give you a child, choose any of them. I don't know where to put them any longer and they don't even seem to like me."
It's not really useless news. It provides insight into the type of people who are supporting trp.
Gross.
Anyhow I think this just gave Swift's endorsement a lot more reach.
I have a few words and I hate that I have to use tiktok.
There's that all too familiar breeding kink of his
That' how I interpreted it as well, perhaps one of his least favorite ones.
He’s still so broken up over his ex he renamed twitter.
X = ex!!
that is, indeed, the joke
Elon "Why don't women love me, I'm a Nice Guy!"
Put this in s thread showing the tweet
So I saw this first but this will be because of her endorsement announcement. No doubt this will be the top hit on Twatter if you search her name
Kind of like how here in the UK thanks to moggies stunt you can't see tht he actually lied to parliament due to a sea of results of him being memed fo lieing on the bench in parliament
Looks like it's working
Oh boy. Another kid to drop all contact with him.
Look on the bright side, if all of this is true, then hopefully a Haitian immigrant will eat Elon musk
I mean, I am sure there are plenty of white people who would. I know I am up for eating a billionaire.
We better make sure he is fully cooked through. Who knows what pathogens we can get from eating him.
Soak him in fresh water over night, then in a brine for a while, blanch, then slow cook, making sure the whole thing hits at least 160-165.
I'm thinking charbroiled and then baked in a pot pie
What about the other races? Don't they get a chunk of broiled Elon?
This is all inclusive. Go out and gitchu some billionaire long pork
He probably does. He is just as deluded and narcissistic as his new BFF, T****.
Look guys, imagine how stressed out you would be if you had invested so much time, pride, and mental gymnastics into a total bullshit cause. These MAGAts were unhinged to begin, and after so many embarrassing moments lately, you know they're absolutely starting to BSOD. I mean, we imagine they could just fess up and walk away from Trump, but in reality their minds would meltdown before that could happen. Stay safe everyone!
These fucking people: "why do they call us weird"
The same fucking people:
What a creep
That is fucking weird.
Fucking gross, elon.
Strange is an understatement for a person with a history of rape to publicly threaten to rape the most famous woman at the moment.
Fucking gross.
Gross
I feel like I'm missing context. What question/ statement is he replying to where this response makes any kind of sense?
Ahhhh. This makes a bit more sense. Thanks!
But now I'm curious about what JD said. Argh. Pulling at this thread will end up with me joining twitter. Got to stop.
Pulling thread is good. Joining twitter is bad ;) Try searching for articles to explain the situation instead. In example: https://time.com/...
He said something to effect of ‘this country is being run by miserable childless cat ladies who want to make everyone else miserable just like them’.
It is not about high time to get Ellen Musk behind bars and give all their belongings to the poor ?
The fuck does that even mean?
That he’s sexually harassing her and probably referencing cruel lies about refugees in a small city in Ohio
Encourage his rapey fan base to see rape as a tool of putting women in their place.
He's trying to assert higher social status as a man.
Probably trying to shift the conversation topic from 'she endorsed harris' by giving fresh new gossip for people to give to each other. Old gossip just isn't kosher.
The sad part is, for much of the audience it will work.
How is this okay with anyone? Why aren't people around him (employees, etc) not swarming him and basically hanging him out to dry?
I have practically zero useful social media influence, nobody would ever see it, but somehow if I posted something like this somehow I feel like I'd get a ton of attention AND be cancelled and or arrested.
Cause he's a billionaire. He's surrounded my yesmen sycophants who want access to his money
,n ,,,
,, u,,
Stop being anti-fanboys and just ignore these two billionaires talking to eachother. He craves the attention and you just give it to him. Why?
Swift didnt say shit to him. He's just trying to ride her coattails by being a creepy fuck.
I'd love nothing more than for these two people to be irrelevant, but unfortunately I live in a world where their money causes them to have large amounts of influence.
Because his unsolicited overtly sexual advances are extremely disturbing to any person who values their bodily autonomy. It literally sounds like he's going to kidnap her and put her in a rape dungeon.
Oh cool guys. You heard it here first. It's only bad to threaten to rape teenagers. Adults? Threaten rape all you want!
There is a context to what was said that is not fairly put in the title of the article, but this is still fucking creepy, misogynistic, ultimately unacceptable behavior.
There is a context to what was said that is not fairly put in the title of the article...
What's the context? The only context I know is she endorsed Kamala and signed her name as Childless Cat Lady. Musk didn't like that and said this line. Did I miss anything?
If not (and even if I did), as a male talking to a female, saying you're going to "give you a child" pretty much only means "I'm going to impregnate you."
Pretty much, unless he was planning to donate one of his existing illegitimate children to her.
"Hey, I've got a bunch extra of these and nobody's answered my sale ad on X, you should take one"
Pretty much, unless he was planning to donate one of his existing illegitimate children to her.
I imagine that would be hard as many of them either actively loathe Elon or he's totally forgotten about them.
That's exactly what it means
Yech
Yes, that exactly. The way she signed the endorsement and its relation to the Republican candidate. Still, the things he said are very disturbing and menacing, coming from the richest person in the world.
So there's no meaningful missing context. With or without the context, it is widely understood to mean "I'll impregnate you." I don't see how that "missing context" makes the headline "unfair," as you put it.
I find the title unnecessarily "clickbaity", and this is what I think is unfair for readers and for the very same news reported.
EDIT: For example, I would prefer that instead of including "Elon Musk sets his sights on Taylor Swift", they would have put something like "after Taylor endorsed Harris as a Childless Cat Owner".
This is not news, who gives a shit?
It's good to document weird and creepy behaviour.
If things like this don't make the news cycle, they essentially go un-called-out. Which might make it seem like normal or acceptable behaviour.
Weird behaviour doesn't live up to scrutiny
Let the other losers on Twitter call it out if they want their cringy drama-fest.
This is not news. Making a random weird comment that is obviously in jest (and is very, VERY obviously not a REAL threat to do anything, as anyone with two brain cells to rub together can figure out) is absolutely NOT worthy of "the news cycle".
Only people who truly have no life have the desire to spend any time giving a shit about this. This is barely worthy of an eye roll.
One of the richest men in the world publicly threatening to rape one of the biggest music stars in the world sounds kind of like news to me.
publicly threatening to rape
?????
lol
He's doing so without doing so.
He knows what he's saying, and most people know what he's saying, but he's not "legally" saying it.
It's the equivalent of adding "...in Minecraft" to his threat, except it's legally stronger given the context.
Yup. Public threat of rape. You see, sex is how babies are made. Elon said he will give Taylor Swift a baby, which means have sex with her. It's pretty obvious that swift would not like to be impregnated by elon musk. When an adult doesn't consent to a sexual act, it's called rape. To tell someone who does not want to fuck you that you "will" give them a baby is a threat of rape. Do you have anymore questions marks?
Reasons people may give a shit:
The US government is shoveling huge amounts of money towards an individual that dismisses and devalues half of the world's population with an active sexual harassment suit against him.
Consumers might want to know if they are supporting if they are supporting a mysogynist by using his privately owned social media service or buying energy products / vehicles from a company he heads up as CEO.
Trump has announced an intention to have this man lead a new "Government Efficiency Commission" and this behavior reflects both on Trump for the sort of people he elevates into positions of power and reflects on Musk as a potential public servant.
He's also the owner of the company which builds and operates the only current domestic launch vehicle certified to carry humans to the space station.
The only other certified launch vehicle in the world is built and operated by Roscosmos - owned and operated by a dictator who's currently trying to annex another nation in the first war in Europe in decades
That was merely blissful ignorance.

Threatening to impregnate a woman is not a good tactic for a man who is currently fighting a sexual harassment.
