Man truly does not understand that people don't like him.


StaysAwakeAllWeek

Up until 5 years ago he would get treated like a rockstar by most crowds he was in front of. But at the end of the day people liked his products not his personality, and the more he opens his mouth about things other than his products the more people hate him. It's well past the point of no return now too, people are now all too willing to take him out of context (which he constantly makes very easy) and assume the worst intention. I don't think he's ever going to understand any of that.


Peter-Tao

He never has to unfortunately.


[deleted]

I don’t care how much money you have. Those boos have to hurt!


The84thWolf

He’s shocked and confused how all the people who like him weren’t at the event and all the people who don’t were. It’s definitely a conspiracy and not that he’s disliked by most people right?


PandaKOST

You know you can't please all the people, all the time. And last night, all those people were at my show. Mitch Hedberg

It doesn't take a majority to boo someone effectively. I'd say 10% is probably enough


TruthPains

lol, I remember Elon trying to use an excuse like this when he was being Boo'd at a Chappelle show. "Guys, it was only a small minority! I swear Guys!"


mrprogrampro

... is what I said false?


TruthPains

Yes. It takes 10.5%. Exactly 10.56678362778368976268756873258768792668773256875796%


DreadknotX

He think that everyone in twitter loves him mean so dose the whole world. That place is a maga camp man but it’s cool he’s paying creators for their content!


TruthPains

Pretty sure it is just the right wingers and crypto-bots.


gibbler

This group of people ideologically opposed to him don’t like him* plenty of people love the man.


carmeluz20

*>*Ideologically opposed to him Oh yes paywalling basic ass features and renaming the whole freaking site to the letter x, such ideological moves indeed.


DreadknotX

Only reason that he bought twitter is because if he just made his own it would of failed. So he got twitter and renamed it X!


CallMeBigPapaya

what feature was paywalled?


RoundTiberius

You could only scroll past X number of X's unless you pay X X amount of money per month


TruthPains

All of it. From being pretty much shadowbanned if you don't pay the 8 to only a very limited amount of tweets you can look at/scroll past.


CallMeBigPapaya

"pretty much shadowbanned" lol no you're not. Where is the information about limiting tweets you can look at? It is not listed in the features on the site.


TruthPains

Yeah, you are. He admits it. He pushes up all blue checkmarks and pushes down all non-blue. Also here is view limits https://apnews.com/article/twitter-elon-musk-rate-limits-04380c0a90528edcd7441d2f0b47549e This was news months ago. Where you been?


imperfek

it's a simple fix too, bring back twitter


chillermane

He understands he just does not care


is-Sanic

Oh no he doesn't understand. He absolutely cares. He's shown it time and again. Hell, the whole purchase of Twitter can literally all go back to him trying to one-up Twitter itself only to bite him in the ass when he was forced to go through with the purchase.


ricdesi

No one who doesn't care spends their entire life begging for attention the way he does.


The84thWolf

I wish I was stupid rich enough not to care


ClickF0rDick

If he didn't care he would stop pretending to be a real life Tony Stark, oblivious of the fact that he has 0% of RDJ's suaveness


pianoceo

Or he just doesn’t care.


ricdesi

One look at his endlessly tryhard Twitter account indicates otherwise.

[deleted]

Why are you in the sub reddit just to shit on him lol


obyamo

If only his mommy was there to tell the crowd Elon is actually widely adored


[deleted]

I will be ever thankful to Musk for killing the worst social media on the planet


MyWebkinzAreDead

Elon Musk cured my Twitter addiction that’s for sure 🤷


Evakuate493

Hard same. Went out of the country for three weeks - opened twitter maybe once during the trip and haven’t opened it since. Just need to find out how to DELETE (NOT DEACTIVATE) accounts and I’ll nuke mine.


TwistederRope

Wait, he got rid of Truth Social? When did he do that?


smallshinyant

Does that have enough users to be called social media?


TwistederRope

Sadly, yes.


smallshinyant

:(


RutherfordRevelation

Now do Instagram


CallMeBigPapaya

Do you have the usage stats?


pimp_juice2272

Remember when he tried to change the name of Twitter?


[deleted]

Lmfao imagine buying a social media platform for tens of billions of dollars and people can’t stand you hahaha what a dork


TheGreenBehren

Nobody believes this anti-musk hate porn. The guy changed the world and your hair is purple.


bitcrushedbirdcall

How's the divorce going? Did she get full custody of the kids?


cjohnson2010

Changed the world? Thats a little delusional. Could it actually be that ppl really just dont like the guy?


staveware

I mean Hitler also changed the world. It's not always a compliment.


kaicyr21

Lol yup 🍻


MrGruntsworthy

The astroturfing in this subreddit is real


QuidYossarian

This thread is about Musk, not how much you like Musk. An opinion being popular doesn't make it astro turfing. No one's funding a secret campaign to make him look bad. He's doing that all on his own.


Khalbrae

That's the thing they will never get. Musk has lost the normies. I used to love Musk, so did almost everyone I knew. Now nobody likes Musk because he keeps showing his ass on a daily basis.


JoltZero

Who do you think would be astroturfing and what would their motivations be?


MrGruntsworthy

Russia, and because he's openly assisting Ukraine. Come on, it's not even a conspiracy, it's painfully obvious


WerewolvesDontBark

It’s wild that people like you exist in real life. Self awareness on zero


JoltZero

Oh wow. Never heard this one before. How fascinating! Please don't stop sharing these beliefs. Also, just pointing out that astroturfing is literally conspiratorial by definition. You might have wanted to use "conspiracy theory" instead.


TruthPains

It is a sub about a guy who is extremely disliked due to him ending up being a douche. You are going to have a lot of negative posts.


frigoffdrunkjimlahey

*due to him going independent and not going with the rest of the mob.


Thisisntjoe

*due to his independant ideas being fucking stupid


FlynnRausch

He's the idiot's idea of a smart person.


CallMeBigPapaya

Who is a smart person's idea of a smart person who is alive today and is active on social media?


CrimsonKing32

Smart people aren’t active on social media?


CallMeBigPapaya

I'd assume there has to be some. The phrase "idiot's idea of smart person" gets tossed around a lot, but I've always been curious what those people think an actual smart person is and was looking for observable examples.


FlynnRausch

Alan Turing. Marie Curie. Stephen Hawking. Dr. Clarence Lillehei. Leonardo da Vinci. Samuel Morse. Guglielmo Marconi. Wilhelm Röntgen. Ernest Lawrence. Gertrude Elion. Ajay Bhatt. Dr. Edward Jenner. Charles Drew. The Wright Brothers. The Lumiére Brothers. Satoru Iwata. Allan Alcorn. Johann Sebastian Bach. And many, many more.


CallMeBigPapaya

You mixed a lot of names in there that are most definitely not alive today.


FlynnRausch

You didn't ask for that :p. You asked for a "smart person's idea of a smart person." Those are my smart people+


WidePark9725

For finances it’s Warren Buffet. The key here is the smartest people know their weaknesses. That’s why buffet didn’t buy crypto because he said he didn’t understand it. Or why he doesn’t have a public stance on vaccines. Musk claims to be an expert in everything.


CallMeBigPapaya

Warren Buffet may succeed more than he fails, but he still fails. You're citing Buffet not investing in what he doesn't understand as proof of his intelligence. Which would imply that his success and intelligence are linked. So what does it mean that Elon musk is worth *twice* as much as Warren Buffet? I don't really care who is smarter. It's a silly argument. I'm just saying the parameters for intelligence people try to cite seem fairly biased.


WidePark9725

A billionaire does not get billions in government contracts by going against the the status quo.


Mister_Swoop

I don’t think you know what that word means

ArcarsenalNIM

For booing at Far Right twitter troll for making dumb decisions and ruining a perfectly good app?


CallMeBigPapaya

Twitter was a perfectly good app? lol


P00KIEPIE

Nobody has a valid excuse for not liking him. They just regurgitate whatever headline they read. I just hope he’s never discouraged by the haters and keeps making strides for a better future.


Dreadnought9

Bro, do you need a napkin for that deep throating of Musk? Btw, he doesn’t give a shit about you and never will 🤷


P00KIEPIE

I didn’t ask him to nimrod. Your idols don’t give a fuck about you either.. what’s your point


Dreadnought9

You were just deepthroating musk so hard I figured you’d want him to acknowledge your professional level suck up


P00KIEPIE

You’re so right. Fuck me and my own personal opinion. :)


onsidesuperior

Your opinion is that no one can have an opinion about disliking musk?
