The Verge interview is Here
The tl;dr is it’s the AMA part 2: electric douchealoo
These people who are mad, they’re mad because they used to get something for free, and now it’s going to be not free.
I just can’t believe that a CEO of a company who doesn’t pay their moderators would actually say something so tone deaf.

It’s a reference to the last time u/spez was an asshole. Come on! No need to downvote.
To be fair, the downvotes might also be part of the joke. That comment was the most downvoted in Reddit history before EA came along.
And it’s not like there’s karma on Lemmy so I don’t care lol
Wow. That is a truly horrendous interview. This saga just keeps getting better. That interview is somehow the absolute worst thing he’s done so far, and he’s pulled a lot of shit.
The only thing more gross than Elon Musk is an Elon Musk imitator. He’s just. so. angry.
A lot of these tech goons are losers in their personal lives and get huge ego strokes being able to control these platforms. Any questioning of their actions is perceived as a direct challenge to them as a person.
