Elon Musk admits he has this secret account on X where he ‘pretends to be a child’ ( www.hindustantimes.com )

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/14173417

Elon Musk admitted to using two secret alternate accounts on his social media platform X (formerly Twitter) in a deposition for a lawsuit against the billionaire. He said that he used some accounts on the social media site outside of his main public account when he was asked to clarify if he used an account on X that had been linked to him by several users on social media. Some users posted a screenshot of his X interface last year in which the additional account appeared to be visible.

So this guy is the CEO of like 5 companies and he still has time to pretend to be a kid on Twitter? Is he really working that hard? Is he working so much harder that he's worth 20,000x the average worker?

He’s worth the money because he owns the stock.

He isn’t as much of a worker as he is someone who owns a lot of the company.

Personally I think he’s outlived his usefulness at Tesla. X has become his passion project.

I’d like to see a new ceo at Tesla. Great cars. He hyped them well then lost interest.

Ah yes, my passion too is a dumpster fire. Love the smell!

he's worth 20,000 of your children

yours personally

just for asking that question

No that would still make my kid worth $9.8 million. My kid will be lucky if he’s worth 1/200,000th of that asshole (not accounting for inflation).

What is the account in question?

The account @ermnmusk, under the name "Elon Test" appeared to show Elon Musk role-playing as a child much like his three-year-old son. Last year the account posted, “I will finally turn 3 on May 4th!”, in a

This is just weird.

I feel like people downvoted you, not realizing that Howard Hughes was the "I keep all my piss in jars to inspect" dude.

His regular account also behaves like a child, but he isn't pretending.

Instead of pretending to be his own infant son (which is really, really weird) , it would be much funnier if he made an alt account pretending to be a bad impersonation of himself, if he has a sense of humour, that is.

That way, he can say things without having it link back to him and stay under the radar, after all, who in the right mind would ever expect an unverified "Elon Musk" Twitter account to be ran by the actual Elon Musk?

WamGams ,

That is essentially the Adrian Deitman account. He is pretending to be a loser who is obsessed is pretending to be Elon.

It is really quite pathetic.

I don't understand how he even have time to be so terminally online when he's running like 5 different companies.

Given what I've read about his management style, the more time he spends on Twitter, the better it is for his employees.

ParabolicMotion ,

Has he considered an account where he talks to his therapist?

You. Fucking. Weirdo.

unreasonabro ,

you know what they say about rich people using their time more efficiently and effectively? this is what that means

ddtfrog ,

Sounds like okbuddyretard

HighElfMage ,

If Elon Musk had had the misfortune to be poor, he would have been institutionalized by now. But since he's rich, the media just fawns over all his whacko bullshit.

RagingRobot ,

Idk I think he would be just a normal guy. Maybe he would work retail or something and be miserable. I still think that would be better haha.

captainlezbian ,

He’d be a retail manager who meets up for abdl role play. Which honestly idgaf if everyone is a consenting adult, my issue would be the retail manager part and possibly him still being a raging bigot

DaCrazyJamez ,

I would be much more impressed if he an account where he pretended to NOT be a child...

LiveLM ,

Oh yeah I forgot about the whole "baby account" thing. Man why are rich people so weird?

TheObviousSolution ,

Because they are psychopaths who really only triumph because their mental illness allows them to bypass social norms and expectations.

im elon musk goo goo gaga

lengau ,
