        Then I hop to another instance or create one of my own (running 19 or later so I can block his) and problem solved, lol.

        Federation means Musk can buy a single instance, or even a hundred instances, but cannot prevent anyone else from simply opening another somewhere else and making their own portal to the same content he wants to collect behind a paywall (if he even could).

    Oh Elon. You’re gonna need a whole lot more Ketamine to convince yourself you’re a good father.

    It’s just amazing that probably the one man who least needs to give a crap about anything has such a thin skin. All of his money can’t seem to resolve his deep insecurity.

    A “burner” account? Never heard it called that before. “Sock puppet” or just “puppet” makes much more sense.

      Burner feels like such an old school term. I’ve more often heard “alt”, “Smurf”, or “finsta”. The last being a portmanteau of fake Instagram account

      It’s pretty common for people to refer to these types of accounts as burners on Twitter. I recall the GM of the 76ers getting in trouble about 5-10 years ago for having sock puppet accounts on Twitter and all the reporting referred to them as burners.

      ‘Burner’ is to ‘Sock Puppet’ as #Hashtag is to ‘Pound Sign’.

    Joined by conspiracy theorist David Icke, who believes that the world’s top leaders are actually lizards, Jones and his guest both questioned whether they were actually talking to Musk based on the individual’s eerily similar speech.

    There’s… there’s a lot to unpack here. I’m truly saddened that this version of me ended up in the bizarre timeline; I wonder how my other selves are doing.

    You know, I always thought money would make me happy. But he seems so much more insecure and miserable than I ever was.

      I don’t think he has feelings about anything you mentioned (those are valid points though).

      It’s just image maintenance to him.

      At that level of money and wealth and living, you dont feel bad at all, cause everything is okay. He felt great just saying it and 1000 of people read it . Anybody who does no agreww with him is just small fraction of people who did not say anything, so its a win for him. You see this in most of the rich people, if there is strike going outside and of one of the operation manager just close the door of factory and contains it outside , its a win for them , unless something is not touching their money directly and helping them blind side problem its a SOLID win in their books .its like they can’t/don’t think that far. It’s side effect of ingot mine , so you can go away mentality, they become highly myopic

      Instead of pretending to be someone else to compliment him about his parenting, he could try just being a dad. I doubt this fucker raised any of his kids for a single second, I doubt he’s changed a single diaper, or attended a single recital or game.

    This is some late 90s web forum admin tyrant drama. Wait until he finds out he can use phpmyadmin to edit other peoples posts.

      He probably merits a 200 page Kiwi Farms thread, if they also didn’t suck him off for being “one of us.”

      I used to know this guy on a forum who had a serious mental disorder, would get banned for attention removed, and would come back months later either as a woman or someone else and get attention until we realized its the same fucking dude. He did actually have a forum of his own, and I am convinced at least three of the most active accounts were him, talking to himself. I don’t know what disorder he had, but he needed help.

    X has two rules. Don’t talk shit about Elon, and don’t talk shit about the dictators he wants to get cozy to.

    Not sure why the title says Elon nuked the account for outing him when the account owner says in the article that he left on his own accord due to doxxing

    How exactly was it proven? Not defending Elon, I’m genuinely curious. The article mentions an audio recording sounding similar to Elon and some weird praises on Twitter. How does that connect the Dittmann account to Elon though?
