Elon Musk‘s erratic posting on X, formerly Twitter, has come back to haunt him once again as a 22-year-old Jewish man pursues a defamation case over tweets in which the tech mogul baselessly suggested the recent college graduate was an undercover federal agent posing as a neo-Nazi during a street fight between far-right groups. Musk’s excruciating March 27 deposition in the matter, which a judge ordered released to the public over the objections of the CEO’s lawyer, reveals the extent to which he has continually sabotaged both himself and the social media platform he owns.

    Having private accounts isn’t that unusual for public figures, sometimes people just want to soapbox and vent in public a little but not attract too much attention to themselves.

    Roleplaying your own infant son on one of your private account, however, is super, super weird.

      What he said as that account is the extra weird part. Some rather inappropriate things.
