This will be the first corporate lawsuit settled by the CEOs fighting each other in a steel cage match.

Make America Great Again: trial by single combat! God will defend the right.

Ooooh, this is exactly what Musk needs. Another huge bill to pay!

He should probably just let it slide. Competition is healthy, after all.

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, and theft of intellectual property is the sincerest form of competition. And competition makes for a healthy free market.

Why are Zuck and Elon trying so hard to look like nice, normal humans and failing so visibly?

I sincerely hope they bleed each other dry

Big props to Elon for doing the impossible and making Zuck look like a good guy.

But, in reality its just Douche vs Douche.

I 100% beleive this is Musks way of getting out of the fight. He either didn't expect it to happen, or didn't know Zuck could fight.

@BrikoX Meta is just exercising their absolute free speech elon loves so much. Now free speech doesn’t mean anything cause it’s trade secrets??

aeternum@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y

Free speech for me, not for thee.

holy shit I'm tired of typing that. He loves free speech, except when it's someone else doing it. Fuck these two so hard. I hope they send each other broke.
