If I were a billionaire with a penchant for internet flamewars, I would totally have my PR firm employ investigators to dig into the past posts of everyone I argue with for salient dirt.

7a twitter still looks more like "wake up, read email, and lol" than "I got owned a day or two ago and am having nightmares about it, retaliatory slander time!"

if eelhead muck would just back down and admit "i hosed up, i apologize, i'm/we're making changes and looking for feedback" he would instantly evaporate like 80% of the criticism. his sycophants would line up to fellate him even harder and most of the tabloid twitter would get bored because admitting flaws isn't juicy and a real journalist would write a piece defending him as a good guy who's just bearing the weight of the world on his shoulders and that would be that. apply this to tesla, hyperloop, union grievances, cave submarine, whatever.

but he's just gotta quadruple-down on everything and it's just baffling that his lawyers and accountants allow him to do it. everything is a personal affront and he can't possibly be less than the smartest man in the room, ever.

any minute now he's gonna start claiming to be the puppetmaster

he was asked to leave the site,

then after calling the dude a pedophile he says “just wait a few days and i’ll have proof” or to that effect.

another thing he said a few days ago: “i’m making a cyborg dragon”
