You had me at Elon died. ❤️
I was super excited for a brief moment until I kept reading
In the last minutes of the stream, Musk made a hardcore difficulty character he named Kekius Maximus, a 4chan-esque meme name he’s used as his display name on X. But Kekius Maximus was not long for the world. Musk died to one of the game’s tutorial bosses due to a bad connection, which subsequently concluded the stream, ending another sad, weird data point in the Elon Musk fake gamer saga.
The guy who claimed he was a top tier Quake player... who in actuality, was only scoring well in online matches, because he played on the T1 high speed, stupid expensive business line at his Zip2 business in the 90s... and performed terribly at LANs...
Well here he is 30 years later, now dying to a tutorial boss, partially due to the shitty connection of his own ISP.
Amazing.

Elon Musk dies….
Tease!
My heart sank
when I finished reading the title
Sucking at games is not bad. Fucking human lives, exploiting countries, being a Billionaire and a fucking Nazi, is.
of course, but he pretends to be very skilled at this game and has hired people to fake it for him….
now, he’s so narcissistic that he still thought he could livestream himself playing, and people would see how good he is… then he died to a tutorial boss….
the point is he’s a fraud at every level, and this is some juicy undeniable proof.
it’s hard to really prove he’s a fraud at spacex and tesla and pretending to be some super genius, but proving he’s even a fraud at stupid video games proves he’s probably a fraud in everything else.
if he actually had any real skill at anything, he wouldn’t need to fake being a good gamer.
i suck at video games all the time, and i enjoy it… but i never pretend like im the best gamer ever.
btw, he also called chess too simple…
he's like xkcd.com/1112

“Elon, deep down you will always be cringe no matter how much money or power you have.”
Deep down? To me he's cringe on the very outside.

My wife thinks maybe he has a humiliation kink.
There's an interesting psychological analysis about musk on a podcast called Psychology in Seattle. They speculate that he is unconconsiously recreating his childhood bullying on twitter due to a psychological phenomenum called "repetition compulsion". As in, you recreate relationships from childhood to try to have a " corrective experience" to heal the trauma.
This is exactly what Ted Bundy did when his first love dumped him.
He fell for a woman called Diane Edwards while in college, and they dated for about a year. She was everything he thought a woman should be; beautiful, smart, successful, and from a well-off family. She dumped him because she saw him as "pitifully weak". Psychologists believe, and Bundy himself all but confirmed, that this was the catalyst that would fuel his homicidal rage towards women. It's also believed that Diane heavily influenced the type of women he killed; young white college students with brown hair parted in the middle. He began killing women the same year Diane dumped him.
Five years later he was married and living a double life as a serial killer. During this time, he sought out and reconnected with Diane behind his wife's back, and Diane was impressed with his transformation. He was on the cusp of a successful legal and political career, and he seemed a lot more masculine and sure of himself. She was smitten and wanted to pursue the relationship. They even got as far as discussing marriage. That's when Bundy dumped her and cut off all contact with her, getting his "corrective experience" moment, which clearly did nothing to heal the trauma of rejection that spurred one of the most terrifying episodes of serial murder in history.
Elon Musk doesn't need to beat the bullies to get closure. He needs therapy. Or rather, he needed therapy, and he needed it many years ago. At this point, he's in his "dumping Diane" phase, where he's already hurt so many people and he's so far gone that no amount of therapy would help him. He's already too addicted to the monster he's become to ever want to heal himself. His need to have these corrective experiences, like Bundy with Diane, is strictly to feed the monster's ego.

Is the PoE 2 tutorial boss any harder than the PoE 1 tutorial boss? Because if not, then thats actually crazy.
the boss is "harder", you have to actively dodge his abilities but he's not "dying two times in a row" hard

I DONT CARE
but i care enough to tell you to not post this crap
and that everyone who cares about what video game the fascist prince is playing also needs to touch grass
At this point I think it's just fun. So much of the conversation around Elon is deadly serious, doom and gloom, and this is just... lighthearted mocking about something that doesn't matter. It's a refreshing change.
And it does seem to matter to him, so undermining that image he works hard to curate is an added bonus. And hell, if Path of Exile is what makes someone realize what a pathetic lying moron he can be, then that's fantastic as well, even if it's an odd thing to have that epiphany for.
You defeat these people by exploiting their deep seated insecurities.
Sometimes that backfires like when Seth Meyers got trump to run for president, but that's the exception.
