I mean don't get me wrong, my biggest problem with Elon is that he is a billionaire raping the working class for wealth.
But this is still problematic behavior when you're in the public eye like him. It normalizes this behavior in a way that teenage boys who worship the ground he walks on don't need.
My display name is literally radioactive butthole and my tagline or whatever is it burns when I poop so don't pontificate to me about how I'm too good to be an idiot on the internet. But the difference is that this account is completely anonymous and basically no one will ever see the dumb shit I post.
Seriously, if you can find a single shred of personal identifiable information like what i do or where I live or anything specific to me at all I'll delete my account and all of my posts and comments.
I'll pontificate whenever I want! Even when I'm damn well sure I'm wrong! (Maybe doubly so!) It's my right as a Netizen!
But I guess we just have different opinions on what qualifies as problematic behavior for teenagers or the public to see. To be fair, I didn't bother to verify Elon was just goofing around, but the implication is that he was. And I stand by that not being a thing I worry about. I actually think not taking yourself seriously and being able to joke around about looking edgy is even fairly healthy.
Regardless, you can rest easy knowing I don't bother espousing my thoughts outside of this little corner of the internet and to the people I actually know. So I promise you that even if I'm wrong, the damage is minimal.
