Now that Elon Musk has bought Twitter - now the Pit edition (Part 2)

“Kekeke” is the Korean “lol,” which is what I assumed that was. Can’t say I’m surprised that something associated with Elon Musk is much much worse than it initially appeared (the frog is also a bit of a giveaway, of course).

Reading the wiki entry on Pepe, it has a large section on the whole ‘Kek’ thing, and its white supremist / 4chan history, including images of green Nazi flags using kek to make a swastika like symbol.

I just can’t believe this timeline. I never would have believed when I was younger that it would come to this.

People suck.

There are large portions of the population that have always sucked and always will suck. There will always be things like this. That’s why we have to be vigilant about it and at the very least call it out when we see it, and fight it if we have to.

It gets…more interesting. Apparently some days back, an anonymous trader invested $55,000 into a “memecoin” named Kekius—and after Elon’s announcement of his new avatar/screen name, that investment is now worth over a million.

Of course a million is nothing to Elon…but I could see him enjoying this.

Elmo (sorry, Kekius, wouldn’t want to deadname him) says that if Adrian Dittman is his sock puppet (which he’s totally not, he’s just a random guy who gets to voice chat with all of his friends and has the same speech impediment as him and has never shown his face and whose internet presence consists solely of telling Kekius what a great guy and totally-not-an-absentee-dad he is) then he’s just practicing self-love and therefore the left are the real beta soy cucks and TOTALLY not him.

I believe that’s a fake tweet.

From your link:

At some point, someone at 4chan happened to seize on a coincidence: There was, in fact, an Egyptian god named Kek. An androgynous god who could take either male or female form, Kek originally was depicted in female form as possessing the head of a frog or a cat and a serpent when male

So, ironically, transphobe Musk in naming himself after a gender fluid god(ess).

Though one who is female in frog form, and Elon picked the frog head version.

The winning. So much winning. Is trump rubbing off on musk, or is musk rubbing off on trump?

Thanks, I need all of it.

Steve Bannon stokes H1B fight with Leon, threatens to “rip your face off”.

Well if it’s a one-on-one fight my money is on Bannon. He’s actually been to jail and probably knows how to make a shank out of ramen noodles.

Didn’t you mean snack?

Nah, shank; a small shiv or tiny knife used for stabbing people in prison.

Elon’s face would be a snack.

I bet Bannon could go all chimpanzee on him. He looks capable.

I’m still holding out hope for that cage match between Elon and Zuckerberg.

With Bannon as the (crooked) ref. I’d pay money to watch that on PPV. :wink:

The only hard part would be deciding who’s the face and who’s the heel.

AND HERE COMES BEZOS WITH A FOLDING CHAIR!

Yeah. Or he could just take off his outermost shirts and let his opponent’s olfactory sense knock him unconscious.

I’m now seeing that “Adrian Dittman”, who totally is not Elon Musk, had a massive flameout with some anons on 4chan that ended with him declaring “you’ll be sorry when Elon buys this site”.

Do it, Elon. Buy the internet’s biggest dumpster fire. Do it right before Trump undoes Section 230 and makes webmasters criminally liable for content on their platforms.

I DARE YOU.

ETA: He’s apparently also embraced Lamarckism now.
