You’re a shit father, Elon.
There, he can’t delete that.
You think he wouldn’t buy lemmy.world?
Wait till he buy Lemmy
Then I hop to another instance or create one of my own (running 19 or later so I can block his) and problem solved, lol.
Federation means Musk can buy a single instance, or even a hundred instances, but cannot prevent anyone else from simply opening another somewhere else and making their own portal to the same content he wants to collect behind a paywall (if he even could).
A “burner” account? Never heard it called that before. “Sock puppet” or just “puppet” makes much more sense.
It’s pretty common for people to refer to these types of accounts as burners on Twitter. I recall the GM of the 76ers getting in trouble about 5-10 years ago for having sock puppet accounts on Twitter and all the reporting referred to them as burners.

Burner feels like such an old school term. I’ve more often heard “alt”, “Smurf”, or “finsta”. The last being a portmanteau of fake Instagram account

I always remember “toons” referring to your character, rather than your account. Kind of like the “cartoon character” you’re playing is how I understood it.

Last I played years ago I think you could have 10? And that was per server, there were tons of servers to choose from, so if you wanted more, you could.
Yes, up to 10 per server, and you could have characters on multiple servers.
I remember seeing the term even while playing pre-WoW MMO’s
Guess they don’t think their readership is smart enough to know what a “sock puppet” or “puppet” account is.
Sockpuppet is what I like to call them
‘Burner’ is to ‘Sock Puppet’ as #Hashtag is to ‘Pound Sign’.
How. Fucking. Pathetic. Do you have to be. To have an entire army of sycophants. And that’s still not enough for your ego.
It honestly makes me genuinely sad. He definitely has complexes and holes in his soul to conduct this behavior. Doesn’t excuse him from being a complete asshole though.
Why are you sad about this piece of shit? He’d never pay you the same mind.
I revel in the insecurities and smallness of these exploitative, parasitic wastes of air.
You can always feel empathy. The more you try the better person you’ll become.
Don’t be like sad rich guy, be better.
Billionaire’s aren’t people and do not deserve our empathy. I am better. I don’t exploit thousands to hundreds of thousands of people’s lives for my own personal, shortsighted gain.
It’s not about them.
Being a halfway decent dad has to be easier than all this. Plenty of guys manage it
Oh Elon. You’re gonna need a whole lot more Ketamine to convince yourself you’re a good father.
X has two rules. Don’t talk shit about Elon, and don’t talk shit about the dictators he wants to get cozy to.
All that money and power and no added happiness or joy. So unloved he has to fake it. I always knew absurd wealth doesn’t actually improve a person, but thanks for constantly proving it over and over again anyway Elon. Glad to know you’ll die unhappy.
This is some “John Barron” energy. Imagine having fucktons of money and still being a whiny crybaby like these fellows.
Have you seen his mom (Maye Musk)? I don’t think she ever loved Elon, or anyone. Maybe Dalmatians.
Money won’t make you happy for sure.
Sad man.
It’s called a sockpuppet account you noobs. 🙄
This is some late 90s web forum admin tyrant drama. Wait until he finds out he can use phpmyadmin to edit other peoples posts.
Encyclopedia Dramatica could do two full editions on this guy alone
I’ll admit I laughed at “entreprettention whore”.
Now that’s a name I’ve not heard in a long time
He probably merits a 200 page Kiwi Farms thread, if they also didn’t suck him off for being “one of us.”
I used to know this guy on a forum who had a serious mental disorder, would get banned for attention removed, and would come back months later either as a woman or someone else and get attention until we realized its the same fucking dude. He did actually have a forum of his own, and I am convinced at least three of the most active accounts were him, talking to himself. I don’t know what disorder he had, but he needed help.
How exactly was it proven? Not defending Elon, I’m genuinely curious. The article mentions an audio recording sounding similar to Elon and some weird praises on Twitter. How does that connect the Dittmann account to Elon though?
Nice try, Elon.
We are all Elon on this blessed day.
Agreed. I strongly dislike Elon and think he is a thin skinned trust fund baby who is destroying Tesla and already destroyed Twitter. I wouldn’t be surprised in the least to find out he is using sock accounts to praise himself… but in this article all I see are people making accusations without solid evidence. Yes, it appears he banned the guy accusing him but we already know that Elon will ban his critics whether or not those critics’ accusations are real. There is nothing here showing that the account is anything but one of his braindead fanboys.
It’s one thing to take these accusations and try to find solid evidence. It’s another to treat the accusations as solid evidence itself. Let’s be better than the conspiracy theorists.
I mean he has a history of doing this… Also, it’s not an audio recording. He joined a live audio chat and everyone on the chat (Alex Jones and some other weirdo) thought it was Elon.
This is so sad, Alexa play Despacito
You know, I always thought money would make me happy. But he seems so much more insecure and miserable than I ever was.
At least Ballmer seemed like he enjoyed being stinking rich.
I’ve literally gained more respect for other rich assholes like Steve Ballmer and Gabe Newell because they don’t run their fucking mouths the way Elon does. AND THEY ARE STILL RICH ASSHOLES!
DEVELOPERS DEVELOPERS DEVELOPERS
what a pathetic fucking cunt
Joined by conspiracy theorist David Icke, who believes that the world’s top leaders are actually lizards, Jones and his guest both questioned whether they were actually talking to Musk based on the individual’s eerily similar speech.
There’s… there’s a lot to unpack here. I’m truly saddened that this version of me ended up in the bizarre timeline; I wonder how my other selves are doing.
I was looking through comments to see if anyone noticed this part. I have to believe that he doesn’t really think world leaders are actual lizards and its actually more of a performance art piece or something.
If he’s serious about it… I just don’t know how humanity went so wrong.
Idk dude, I read his wiki page and some of this shit is just nuts: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Icke
This guy strikes me as one of:
- a cult member
- an aspiring cult leader
- a grifter
- someone suffering a psychotic break from reality (obligatory: I’m not a trained medical/mental health professional)
- some combination of the above
Go to r/SaturnStormCube and r/SaturnTimeCube. He was half-successful.
Well that’s a big old yikes from me dawg. I took a quick peek at those subs and I can’t say it was worth the time I spent dancing around reddit’s VPN blocker. I bet the AI company is gonna get some great data from those comments.
Also time cube is banned so there’s that lol.
Yeah it wasn’t supposed to be pleasant lol damn menorahman finally got the sun to take the big L with all his very real antisemitism. Weird hearing someone praise the Monad and then be antisemitic.
It’s just amazing that probably the one man who least needs to give a crap about anything has such a thin skin. All of his money can’t seem to resolve his deep insecurity.
