The Secret Service has launched a probe into an X post by Elon Musk in which he tweeted that “no one is even trying” to kill Kamala Harris or Joe Biden.
The tech billionaire deleted the post on his X platform and passed it off as a “joke.” However, the White House did not find it funny and instead called it “irresponsible.”
“Violence should only be condemned, never encouraged or joked about,” the White House said in a statement. Now the Secret Service is involved.
I feel like you’re misunderstanding what I’m saying in, like, an extreme way.
I’m absolutely not saying that Elon is some kind of mastermind. But there are people who legitimately are buying his bullshit. I’m explicitly pointing out that it is bullshit, and that the dude did not “just make a dumb joke without realizing the implications”.
Almost every time I type “reboot” into my terminal I have to restrain myself from saying it out loud like in the TV show.
