What if a bunch of white dudes--including super famous white dudes like Jeff "The Dude" Bridges, Josh "Olaf the Snowman" Gad, Jon "Duckie" Cryer, and Mark "Jedi Master of Twitter" Hamill--held a record-breaking Zoom call and Elon Musk got big mad about it?
That seems to be exactly what happened on Monday night as 190,000 white men did Vice President Kamala Harris the ultimate solid and raised $4m for her campaign on Zoom.
The call was also streamed live on YouTube, delighting viewers with speakers like Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA and my "Dem Crush") and Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker (D) helping to rack up the donations along with the conversations.
There was plenty of chatter about it on Twitter from hundreds of thousands of users, with several accounts sharing a live stream of the call to their own thousands of followers.
That sounds like a great night of traffic for Twitter, which I'll never call X no matter what. But it really looks like Elon had himself a fit over not being invited.
The Twitter account driving all of it is Dudes4Harris, which was deactivated for a few hours immediately after the call ended.
What's the matter, Elon? Rich white guy FOMO or something?
Musk just can't stop interfering in our elections, which is weird for a naturalized citizen whose businesses rely on US government contracts to maintain production.
Which is weird in and of itself, because I don't like the idea of a Musk satellite flying over the planet. Look how many of his rockets and cars have exploded.
Anyway, it seems okay for Elon to post fake videos of Vice President Harris or share anti-Semitic tweets claiming we're all owned by the Soros family (I promise you that I've never received one penny from George Soros). Elon said he wasn't going to endorse any candidates or otherwise engage in our elections, but then he pledged $45 million a month to Trump. And then he said he never said that.
He's also allowed the worst people back on Twitter, from Donald Trump to Alex Jones to Nick Fuentes.
Oh, if only everyone warned everyone else that letting Elon buy Twitter was a terrible idea.
People immediately began tweeting about Dudes4Kamala's suspension being "election interference" on Elon's part.
The account was eventually reinstated by Mr. "I Love Free Speech But Only If I'm Speeching It" Musk.
