I think muskrat chickened out. Zuck actually does sports and stuff in his spare time, where as elon does ketamine. Most pictures of Zuck you can see the goggle tan from wherever he's been skiing/boarding. He's moderately athletic. Elon would get absolutely demolished.
One of the few things I actually believe musk was not lying when he said he was joking about it from the begining with no serious intents. IE his line saying "I have a move called the walrus where I just lie on top of my opponent and don't do anything". To me more or less backs the statement that he was just goofing around.
Very much unlike his Nazi rhetoric. Where every action he makes and everything he says seems to tell me he's politically aligned with the worse of white supremacists.
As much as I enjoy the narrative of the Nazi fuckhead backing out of a fight he tried to pick, it does also sound plausible that the media blew a dumb joke way out of proportion.
Yeah but first he claimed he would win if he trains and there is a reason for weight classes and shit. Just how he claims he was once the best quake player, one of the best diablo and pathfinder players. He tells the pettyest of all lies that i find it yard to imagine he himself knows what's true anymore.
Yeah but Elon doesn’t have any more pain receptors. He can just go until he bleeds out.
Fine with me. Bleed him out.
hes on ketamine, doubt he would feel pain.
