I bet he was frequenting 4chan back in a day. Now he's just not trying to fit in anymore and all of it is coming out of him raw.

I have zero doubt in my mind that Elon was, and likely still is, a hardcore 4chan shitposter.
He was 100% on /pol/
I've always assumed that Musk actually was on 4chan in its heyday - that Twiiter came later in his online life, after he cut his teeth on /b/.
You and the other guy going on thinking about how he was a 4chan-chud back in the day, I'm sitting here thinking that moist turnip is still on 4chan lmao
The quiet part out loud does seem like it's "I want to take something mainstream and popular, then turn it into 4chan", that place poisoned his mind, and he's not the only one, not by a long shot. In fact, his brand of mental damage is dime-a-dozen nowadays.
