Elon Musk Faces Backlash for Using Offensive Language on X
– Recent tweet by Elon Musk provokes criticism after Chechen warlord Ramzan Kadyrov praised him for acquiring a weaponized Cybertruck.
– Musk responded to activist Seth Abramson’s inquiry about the vehicle donation with a derogatory anti-disability slur, igniting outrage online.
– Users expressed disapproval, noting the insensitivity of such language, especially coming from someone with a history of Asperger’s syndrome, which he has publicly discussed regarding his own experiences.
– Musk’s father previously revealed that teachers once suggested special education for Elon during his childhood due to perceived learning difficulties.
– Since acquiring X in October 2022, Musk’s posts have become increasingly controversial, leading to formal charges from the EU for possible law violations. His shift in persona has raised concerns about his mental health, especially given his admission of using ketamine for depression while claiming to be “almost always sober” during tweets.
