If Musk is ready to lie about his gaming achievements then can we really trust anything that comes out from his mouth.
I mean who cares if Musk is bad at POE2 but the fact that he goes to such lengths to lie about how good he is in a videogame tells a lot about his character and personality.
Have you heard his opinions on chess? He doesn’t play because it’s too easy.
That’s exactly what someone who sucks at it would say.
Wonder how he’d fare against trump at golf.
They would tie. Would take them each 18 strokes for 18 holes I’m sure.
They’d tie with a perfect score of -18, having somehow gotten a hole in one each course without even touching a club!
That’s not how golf works but I like where your head is at.
I know it isn’t, that was the joke, they scored an impossible score by somehow managing the get the ball in the hole with less than 0 swings.
It’s like what Trump would do if he were younger and cared about video games.
He made a post using command line lingo too, but anyone with even basic knowledge of those commands can tell you that both the syntax and the way he alludes to them are wrong.
It’s the equivalent of slinging a guitar in a picture to look cool but pressing the side with the strings against your belly.
The guy can’t miss an opportunity to demonstrate his character and personality. This seems both extraneous and consistent - it’s more of the same data. I think we’ve got his number.
I bet if Musk played DBD he’d be the first one on the damn hook, every, fucking, time.
My first instinct was to poke fun but it’s actually important to keep breaking this overpaid influencer’s false image. He’s actively using it to push his harmful agenda.
I can‘t even tell for sure who of the two you’re talking aboout but I agree either way.
Yes

Have you not noticed any of the many things Musk has said and done to suppress things like civil and worker’s rights? How he’s sucking Trump’s cock so he can dictate policy to the country? How he turned Twitter into an actual Nazi mouthpiece? That’s what he’s using his image to try to push.
Among other things:
- anti workers rights
- anti immigrant
- with exceptions for his own businesses
- anti safety nets
- pro fascist
- he’s began propping up Reform in UK and AfD in Germany
- pro corporate
Basically your bog-standard right-wing corporate fascist grab bag. He’s using his platforms (in all meaning of the word) to push that internationally.

Zack is one of my favorite (if not THE favorite) streamer in the world.
Rather than taking the time to try and research Elon, it’s probably faster to just read the Wikipedia entries on the German Nazi party and apartheid South Africa. That should give you a pretty good idea of what he believes and is pushing.
FYI, Vice is now a far-right mouthpiece https://theintercept.com/2024/11/19/vice-news-right-wing-trumpism/
The craziest part of that article is
Vice co-founder Shane Smith stepped down as CEO in 2018, but has remained the company’s (…) The Canadian-born journalist’s focus seems to be trained on the southern border, with an editorial line closer to Trump campaign fearmongering than hard news reporting. (Smith is not to be confused with Vice co-founder Gavin McInnes, who left the media company and established the far-right militant group the Proud Boys).
So two of the three Vice media founders are now far right? I tried to find out more about Suroosh Alvi, the third founder, but didn’t see much. Though on his X (🤢) he posts and reports a bunch of pro Gaza stuff.
I shouldn’t be surprised cuz it looks like they all got rich off Vice, but still.
Their new podcast style conspiracy videos are just terrible, he comes across as a complete moron.
I feel like I remember them focusing on the sensation around news and not the actual news. Anything news worthy was included as a matter of context.
I felt like Vice was as if Beavis and Butthead were reporters, they went to the heart of a story that wasn’t getting much coverage and asked about people’s butts.
Shane has intense yuck vibes if you meet him IRL
Not a surprise, dude gives off those vibes in videos as well.
Some of us remember when Vice was a mean-spirited, local magazine that made fun of the way New Yorkers dressed.
Not really surprising that those people turned out to be scumbags.
I mostly remember it as reporting abput random ass topics “transsexual ketamine dealers of Uruguay” type of stuff.
but the tolerent left told me asmon is far right
Such a /technology/ post.
There is technology in it, like a computer game.
It’s got Elon, so it must be Technology. ;)
Both of these people could fall off a cliff in a burning Tesla and nothing of value would be lost.
That’s how you get forest fires though.
There are plenty of cliffs in deserts :)
More than there already are?
I’d mourn the lithium.
In an interesting plot twist, it would actually be a net positive for said Tesla brand in the long run, too.
Actually it’s a dumb point because everyone and their mom already know he got boosted. Both of them should shut up and stop showing their face in public thank you very much.
I want the account sharer banned though.
The weird thing is like, this whole situation could have been avoided if he just played the game normally rather than pretending to be some god gamer at it.
It’s for the same reason he’s pretended to be a genius his entire career, he’s obsessed with his self image and being number one. He’s lied about being the best quake player in the world at some point. He’s like Billy Mitchell with more money.
Fragile masculinity combined with wanting to appear sufficiently tech savvy to tech bro investors. Tech bros want nerds because pretty much every dollar they’ve ever made was off the back of some innovation of someone they consider a nerd, so Elon wants to be the biggest nerd to tech bros so they will throw even more money at his dumb projects.
Imagine being the wealthiest person on the planet, and still being this insecure.
some random twitch streamer is worse than any person I’ve ever heard of. Wow what’d they do! It’s some video game leaderboard bullshit drama about Musk.
Lol fuckin quality journalism vice. Must be a really eventful news day.
He’s already demonstrated first hand he doesn’t know how to navigate the UI for someone who has invested time to be a top player. It’s obvious to anyone that’s spent more than a couple days in any game.
Oh, thank you, Vice! I didn’t know Asmongold was worse than Hitler.
Garbage journalism what a joke. Fuck, I still remember when Vice was relevant and renowned for the work.
But the reason Vice uses Asmongold instead of someone like Quin69, who made the video showing Elon is a fraud, is because people know Asmongolds name and it gets Vice the clicks.
I like to think this is the start of something important, Musks gaming account, realising that we can seriously sidetrack Trump by calling him the vice president and weird. The public is learning how to enact our own kind of political manipulation.
Isn’t it weird that he’s the top player in PoE2 AND Diablo IV?
Plus a highly involved, successful CEO for multiple companies! I believe any of that is true as much as I believe he’s a free speech absolutist.
Do you think he pays Chinese teenagers to run his companies
I wouldn’t be surprised given the decisions he has made at Tesla alone.
I would be
Chinese teenagers would be much more competent at running tech companies
I think that putting in the hours to be very good at PoE2 is more embarrassing than being an amateur who only played a little bit. I say that as someone who looks forward to playing a lot.
how does elon even have time to play video games if he’s the most busiest and hardcore guy of all time?
For once Asmongold’s outrage baiting worked in our favour
