In the latest saga of tech billionaires trading barbs, the ever unpredictable Elon Musk has fired a new salvo, aimed directly at Bill Gates. Yes, the self-proclaimed ‘technoking’, the man who aspires to colonize Mars, and the mind behind ‘Not-a-Flamethrower’, has put Gates squarely in his crosshairs. The accusation? “Bill Gates is evil, going to expose him soon.” We’ll pause for a moment to let that sink in.
Picture the scene: Musk, sitting comfortably in his Tesla, casually scrolling through his phone, fires off this tweet with the same nonchalance as ordering his favorite Venti, Half-Whole Milk, One Quarter 1%, One Quarter Non-Fat, Extra Hot, Split Quad Shots (1 1/2 shots decaf, 2 1/2 shots regular), No Foam Latte, With Whip, 2 packets of Splenda, 1 Sugar in the Raw, a touch of vanilla syrup and 3 short sprinkles of cinnamon.
The tweet has been received with a mixture of shock, bemusement, and ‘here we go again’ sighs from the tech community. It’s not the first time Musk has made outlandish remarks, after all. He’s previously suggested we nuke Mars to make it habitable, called a heroic cave diver a “pedo guy,” and even smoked weed on a podcast. Against this backdrop, his claim of Gates’ supposed villainy almost seems like par for the course.
Still, the declaration that Gates is evil and will soon be ‘exposed’ has left people scratching their heads. Is this another of Musk’s infamous pranks, akin to selling “Teslaquila”? Or is there more to this bizarre claim than meets the eye?
For those in the conspiracy theory corner of the Internet, this tweet is a veritable gold mine. Already, forums are ablaze with speculations, from Gates’ alleged plan to implant microchips in everyone to him being the mastermind behind the global pandemic. According to these theorists, Musk’s declaration is the validation they’ve been waiting for.
