“Elon Musk has been a charlatan since Day One,” was Piker’s reply to his chat when he read about the Tesla introduction. That is, a comment in his chat talking about how Musk introduced Tesla to force other major automobile companies to invest more in EVs.

The supposed reason was to support the protection of the Earth and its environment. For this, Hasan called out Elon to be a charlatan who has been using something like this for his personal gains.

Moving to the Twitter issue, Piker was unforgivable to the Billionaire in this regard as well. He was also outrightly criticizing the recent measures that the micro-blogging platform made in regard to the lay-off of its employees. Further, Piker was pointing out certain Tweets by Musk, including his support tweet for Emmanuel Macron and the retirement age debates in France.

Rumors regarding tweet promotions during the Super Bowl

Another theory that Piker was talking about was in regard to the recently concluded Super Bowl. There have been reports that Elon Musk’s tweet during the Super Bowl was getting shown on the majority of Twitter accounts regardless of whether people were following him or not. Apparently, according to rumors, James Musk, the cousin of Elon, called for an urgent meeting after the Super Bowl. The meeting was called because Musk’s tweet was doing poorly compared to President Biden’s tweet.

Thus, the engineers rushed to their offices to promote Musk’s tweet so it could garner more views. Hasan found this to be a ridiculous act by the billionaire. He stated that the story of the Twitter acquisition by Musk is like how a pathetic brain-dead billionaire bought a 44 billion worth toy and broke it. These strong accusations were followed by Piker calling out Musk for using the platform for personal validation.
