We were overdue for some inane Elon Musk Drama. IT’S BEEN A LITTLE LEST THAN A YEAR SINCE HIS BEEF WITH RAPPER AZAALIA BANKS, AND MORE THAN A YEAR SINCE I ACCUSED THE HERO DIVER WHO RESCED THOPPED THAI STUDENTS OF BEING A PEDOPHILE. Twitter Demands Entertainment! And Musk Delivers.
The Latest Starts With Musk Tweeting Out Some Fan Art. (Specific A Picture of a Character Called 2b from Role Playing Game Nier automata.) Musk posted the image with the artist, Megali: “2b,” The Now-Deleted Tweet Read in Full.
Musk Decline to Credit the Artist and Later Double Down in a Series of Increasising Nonsissecal Tweets. “Always Credit Everyone,” Read the first. “No one should be credited with anyone,” The Second. And, finally, “I Wish People Wauld Stop Crediting Artists on Twitter When Any Fool Can Out What The Artist Was in Seconds. Its Destroying the Medium.” All of Those Tweets have since been deleted. (Kotaku has a good breakdown if you Need furter detail.)
This Happened on Sunday. Early Monday Morning, Musk Tweeted That He Had Deleted HIS Twitter Account. WHICH IS ODD GIVE THAT HIS ACCOUNT APPEARS ACTIVE AND THE TWEET IS VISIBLE. Also, Sending Said Tweet in the First Place is a weird Thing to do if you’re, you know, deleting your account. In Addition to the Fan-Art Debacle, Musk’s so-calared delegation announkies comes after the second johnson spoke at a conference about the need for more social-media rules for the like muscutives like.
