    Why is Musk mad at AsmonGold? Did he dunk on Elon for paying others to play his account?

    I just… Fail to see the reason Elon should dedicate his time to fighting with a neet shut in. Asmon turned off donations on his stream. He doesn’t care about money, political influence, or bathing. Just games. What possible gain would there be in trying to mess with him? The richest person to have ever existed in history, in a slap fight with a dude that lives in a dirty hovel? It almost sounds like trying to fight Diogenes.

    And exposing his editors isn’t the “gotcha” you think it is. They just protect him from YouTube’s crappy rules.

      Asmond said that he will stop streaming on twitch and start streaming on X if Musk can prove that he himself played that PoE2 character instead of being farmed out to somewhere else

        Lol that’s pretty funny. Of course that’s something Elon would get mad about, an online dick measuring contest…

          what I heard (but really haven’t looked into it due to lack of actually caring that much), he said he will actually stop on twitch. But I can be wrong

      “He doesn’t care about money, political influence, or bathing. Just games.”

      Does he care about games? I used to watch him years ago, but then he turned into a misogynistic drama farmer and rage baiter who occasionally plays games.

        Oh, gross. I haven’t seen many videos of him (especially lately) so I guess I hadn’t seen enough of his stuff for his personality to come through.

      What used to make South Park fun, was that it was an over-exaggerated caricature of real events. Today, real events are so fucked up and nonsensical, that you can’t even really make it up anymore

      Well, he certainly does. Whether you watch that episode or not is up to you.

      Yes, but getting angry at a guy who doesn’t shower and lets cockroaches crawl all over themself over a dispute about video games when you are a multi-billionaire is arguably more pathetic.

        I thought you were referring to Musk before you actually referred to Musk. They are indistinguishable to me.

    Oh no, I can’t believe that Elon would just give shameless content straight to asmon like that… Wait stop, don’t make a video about getting unchecked on Twitter because the owner got mad and unchecked you tor calling him out on his silly video game stuff. I’m sure the video won’t at all be a viral hit…

    Not sure what is this about (I don’t watch YT) and if it’s a twitter thread, I never know if I have to start to read from the top or bottom?

      the xcancel is giving you the thread as you should read it, top to bottom. it’s basically taking the bullshit and putting it outside Twitter so nonTwitter people can read it When shithead took over, he blocked nonusers from being able to see anything but one post, making it impossible to follow

      xcancel is bypassing twitters insider only walled garden

      The “Interesting” is very Muskesque. I also think if it was DMs to someone else, even in the USA that’s got to be some level of a legal privacy issue.

        I am wondering the same…

        Not sure what the regulations are in the US for DMs but I would think/assume it falls under private communication, let alone the mail-privacy laws and that it may not be tampered with or exposed to the public by 3rd parties.

        And in this case Musk seems to be a 3rd party, he’d like to claim ownership of any DMs on “his” platform ofcourse but DMs do have a nature of private communication between two parties.

        So uhm yeah Elon, tell us about all those gunshot holes in your feet…

    LoL Somehow in Elon’s head it is the same: Pay someone to play your account and you take credit vs gameing on their own and pay someone to edit the streams

    🤭such ignorance
