So here’s the thing. Elon is an idiot. He wants you to desperately believe he is a genius while also holding true that he plays games 10 hours a day, tweets 2 hours a day, which he prioritizes over for his 14 kids. That’s several punlines worth of Jeff Foxworthy “You know you’re a redneck when” material in one sentence of his public behavior. Articles like this are beautiful. But his stupidity should not be a surprise here, more of an expectation. (And a hilarious one at that)
Rednecks were originally the coal miners in Virginia who fought the oligarchs in the battle of Blair Mountain. They wore red neckerchiefs to identify themselves. As with most leftist icons, decades of psyops have perverted the term.
All that to say, it is insulting to rednecks to compare Elon to them.
I always heard rednecks are the people on the farm that get red necks from the sun.
That’s the psyop version meant to divide the working class and make people forget about Blair Mountain.
Completely agree. To be clear, I very much respect Rednecks. I do not respect Elon. He is a genuinely worse person than the most exagerated and derogatory punchlines of those jokes.
It was co-opted into including class struggle by the union movements but it was originally a (derogatory) word for poor farmers and labourers.
He paid other people to play games for him.
Of course he did. But he’s insisting, quite publically, that he didn’t. That it was only HIM that played said game for 10 hours a day.
Which means he’s an even bigger idiot than if he just told the truth. This guy WANTS you to believe he’s a loser that plays games as long as the people he pays. Believe him.
Because in reality he’s even more of a loser. Someone who needs to pretend to play video games with their money, rather than simply gaining the skill to do so themself.
And the fact he’s made this lie public, means he wants all of his investors to believe he’s the video game boy as well.
There’s literally no possible way for this behaviour to be stupider than it is. Because not admitting to this lie makes his actions stupid whether it’s a lie or not.
He either plays games 10 hours a day, or desperately wants you to believe he does. Both of these are stupid. And make him seems like a poor CEO to invest in.
Here’s the basic Google search 100% proving this is fact because his tweets are public and easily countable:
statswithsasa.com/…/elon-musk-definitely-tweets-t…
it took fewer than 50 days for Elon Musk to post ~3,200 tweets
Elon is averaging 67.8 tweets/day, and there have been weekdays (read: workdays) where he has tweeted over 150 times in one day.
Yes, that’s right. Using my method, I estimate that Elon spends ~2.7 hours per day on Twitter… there have been workdays where Elon Musk has spent over 5 hours on Twitter in a single day.
I even rounded that number down to make it easier to swallow.

I love that his supposed IQ is 165 yet I have never seen him say or do anything remotely intelligent. I’m sure he paid someone to take the test for him just like he paid someone to play his video games for him. The only thing Elon is good at is spending money. Especially American tax payer’s money.
