Musk says so, so it must be true, right?

    “Musk says” is a phrase that needs to be treated properly: as an injustice against the poor letters trapped within it and not as anything approaching meaning.

      I mean, he suggested it, Zuck responded, and now he’s doubling down. He has a pretty solid track record of doubling down on stupid decisions and embarrassing himself.

        More of a history of doubling-down in front of everyone while trying to find loopholes to get out of it behind the scenes, finally being forced to do it kicking and screaming THEN embarrassing himself.

      Are you kidding? Seeing two billionaires beat the crap out of each other? That’s the best sounding entertainment I’ve heard of in years.

    Is Musk really that excited to get knocked around like a toy? Zuckerberg is very fit, trained in jiu-jitsu, eats healthy, and is active in that space. Musk has nothing since childhood but his ego and is 51 years old.

    I am not making an ex-twitter account to watch two people I don’t care about hit each other

      There’s no reason anyone would expect Musk to have exclusive streaming rights in the first place, which is what’s so bizarre about this post. In terms of first-party sources, Zuck has 3 platforms to stream this to and Musk has 1, which is currently bleeding users. Nobody is going to go to X to watch this.

    In a day or two, to keep in the news, musky will pull out for some stupid reason. And there will be more posts about it.

    Move on from the manchild.

    I don’t see how this would be competitive at all. Zuck should easily be able to put this dude on his ass.
