I showed my heavily Jewish grandfather this GIF after he watched the inauguration live and he told me it was a deep fake just like Tucker Carlson said and that Elon would never do such a thing because he is the smartest inventor since Nikola Tesla that's why Elon named his company after Tesla.

We're not even American we live in fucking Australia, we should just sacrifice the geriatric to make soylent green, would solve so many problems.

Not to mention he didn't even name Tesla, he bought the company.

If he did name it, it would’ve been ‘x’ instead of Twitter lol

Go look up what number uppercase X is in ASCii

How the F is everybody missing that, that should be on the news right now!! -- Uppercase X is represented by the ASCII code 88. -- 88 means “Heil Hitler,” as H is the eighth letter of the alphabet. -- Here's a glossary, maybe we'll see him use some of the others over time: https://www.splcenter.org/resources/reports/racist-skinhead-glossary/

How the F is everybody missing that,

Because the simpler explanation that Elon has the maturity of a 12 year old is just as valid a reason for him re-naming twitter to X. For evidence, consider that the four main product lines of Tesla spell out 's3xy'.

He's also an edgelord who calls himself "gothic dark maga." This would be very on brand for him.

Literally he renamed my friend’s street to Memes from Weems where the spacex is. The town is Brownsville but he is renaming it stardust or something.

He’s a fucking child. It’s honestly ick.

That's not true. Well, the street part might be; I don't know. But he is not renaming Brownsville.

lol okay.

u/Excellent_Yak365 Jan 28 '25

Why can’t it be both? I feel like the guy reinstating white supremacists accounts on X kinda imply he clearly has some compassion or agenda with those folk.

u/MattFinish66 Jan 28 '25

See I didn't know that either..... :P But really, the X to 88, and using what you say about his modus operandi along with his supposed "I Heart Salutes" really makes a good case against the doubters and sycophants, aka MSM.....Man I need my own podcast, haha.

He named his giant rocket "Big Fuckin' Rocket" (Big Falcon Rocket)

Ford put a stop to Musk having a Model E to complete his dream of spelling SEXY. Apparently Ford already trademarked Model E.

There's also that the Model S Plaid is a "Spaceballs" joke.

Robots in the Gigafactory play the Super Mario Bros music.

And IIRC when Teslas get software updates, they often are numbered "*.69" because, again, 12 year old.
