Elon Musk‘s erratic posting on X, formerly Twitter, has come back to haunt him once again as a 22-year-old Jewish man pursues a defamation case over tweets in which the tech mogul baselessly suggested the recent college graduate was an undercover federal agent posing as a neo-Nazi during a street fight between far-right groups. Musk’s excruciating March 27 deposition in the matter, which a judge ordered released to the public over the objections of the CEO’s lawyer, reveals the extent to which he has continually sabotaged both himself and the social media platform he owns.

I get that you're like 12 or something but he's had publicity his entire life, and both good and elons reputations only are getting worse

Their reputations literally make no difference to their means or power. Have you been asleep for the last 20 years? Donald Trump has been getting shit on constantly for decades and people still fork over millions to keep him afloat. Calling people names (no 12 year olds are using lemmy btw) doesn't change the fact that constantly infecting our eyes and ears with these assholes only helps them.
