It’s 15 years old at this point, they should do an updated version

Built like a fuckin' truck.
A cyber truck
Bulky in all the wrong places and off-putting to look at
5. u/DuskSnare · 2026-10-25 20:57 UTC
Ohhhhh, so that’s where they got the cybertruck design from!

I’m not on X and never will be. Do people ever push back on him about these claims? Does it gain any visibility? Does he respond?
7. u/Konkuriito · 2026-10-25 20:13 UTC
he owns the site, wouldnt that just result in a ban?

Possibly. I thought he was a big free speech guy (lol).
10. u/Icarsix · 2026-10-25 20:17 UTC
Like most free speech absolutists, what they mean is believing they should be able to say slurs without consequences

Feel like 1357 is more appropriate here

You know as well as I do that the people that need to read this, can't

Meaningful pushback is always suppressed: he banned the lawful tracker of his jets, he banned the No Kings twitter, he banned the Musk documentary posts
"Free speech absolutism" was about allowing the N word, conspiracy theorists & genuine neo-nazis.

Every time he makes a post like this people reply with “grok is this true” and grok will pump out a paragraph that boils down to ‘Elon is absolutely wrong.’

There was a seperate thread with groks response, here: https://www.reddit.com/r/MurderedByWords/s/ZeeiBNKoi3

Do people ever push back on him about these claims?
yes
Does it gain any visibility?
no
Does he respond?
hell no

Subjecting yourself to Twitter is like being Winston and coming back to the torture chamber to stick your head back in the rat's cage voluntarily.
You can leave anytime.
Elon might block you, he might suppress your comments so that they don't feed. It sounds tinfoil hat but since his takeover the algorithm has been on a flail. You can't prevail with reason there. The deck is stacked heavily.
19. u/SRGTBronson · 2026-10-25 20:14 UTC
People ratio him pretty often, but you can't logic someone out of a position they didn't logic themselves into.
20. u/karl2025 · 2026-10-25 22:27 UTC
He's also getting paid for you to post there so it's not like he cares what your comments say.
