Mark Zuckerberg Accepts Elon Musk’s Offer To Fight In A Cage
Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg have been scrapping it out in the social media ether for months and now they’re ready to do the business in a cage. In a hardly believable exchange that has take…
We are truly living in an Idiocracy. What kind of headline is this?
I can't believe this is a real story.
Why can't they be like normal billionaires and just go outside and play with their submersibles?
I'd rather see them have a duel at dawn, or whenever.
So zuccyboy called musk and said, hey elon my metatrap is not getting any free publicity lately & your blue bird looks kinda dead, do you have any ideas? Sure, let's stage some fake mma bs so that everybody can talk about, Joe will do some small talk for the populi about our everyday struggles, shinning different light on our cumbersome lives and we profit again. Great idea loonyboy, I'm in.
Lol exactly this
Ahh, the ol' early Trump playbook.
They're literally having a cross platform conversation to drive traffic
I had to look this up because I thought it was fake.
What the fuck is wrong with these people?
I really thought this was an onion article. I'm still not convinced it isn't yet.
We do, in fact, live in the dumbest possible timeline.
I swear, the world's turned into a parody of itself without any of us realizing it. Where's the fucking cameras?
We realize. There's just no way to stop this right now.
Could we just leave them in the cage?
The Zuck has a lot of training. Musk is a fat roll. Not a good matchup.
Ultimately it doesn't matter, it's a win all around as they both need a good ass kicking. I'd cheer every punch no matter who threw it because the one receiving it deserves it.
Actually it's a great matchup cause we get to see musk get pummeled.
Pillsbury Doughmusk's gonna become the lizard's lunch.
I think with musks last comment about "the walrus" he is going to say he was obviously kidding and won't actually do anything... A shame really. :(
The first time I saw this headline I thought it was from one of those Onion offshoot websites and skimmed it over. I can't believe it's real, but I'm both delighted and dumbfounded that it is!
I choose to believe they're doing this for our entertainment. Out of the goodness of their hearts. Things have been rough lately and we all need a little silliness and fun. Thanks, guys!
I think there was a weird reddit post awhile back where a guy saw Mark in his karate class. I dunno, rich people are people too and I guess this is a win-win for both of them. They get to live their rich lives, and it's a spectacular publicity stunt.
My money is on the Zuck, he's got that BJJ and Elon looks like a chicken nugget.
Zuck's gonna tear him apart; he's got that android strength.
LMAO
Hopefully they off each other.
Yes because with any other scenario no matter who wins we lose.
Why's everybody seething with rage? This is hilarious. It's easy to get bent out of shape when the flaws of powerful people have a disproportionate effect on others, but those flaws are, in themselves, an indication that the humanity has not yet been completely purged from industrialized society.
Okay, you hate the rich. I understand, but we've been dealing with them since we noticed that grain grows better on certain land, and we'll be stuck dealing with them until individuals can freely convert matter and energy. Okay, these guys are egomaniacal man babies. They're taking it out on each other! Honestly, would you rather they resolved their differences and cut a deal to (further) integrate Meta and Twitter? Let them fight.
I like this attitude and I agree! It's your turn to be here for our entertainment, silly rich manbabies. Dance for us!
What a great way to sum it up! It's time they wore their clown shoes and did some tricks for us.
This is hilarious.
I agree. I don't need or want corporations and their leaders to (necessarily) be super-serious sophisticated caricatures of responsible people. I mean, it's good if people will take seriously what an expert says when they are speaking within their expertise, but it's probably good for people to see that they aren't experts on stuff outside their expertise, so I'm all for some public dumbassery from them.
I ate the news. Thought this was the onion...
They’re just jealous that the squashed billionaires are hogging all the headlines.
I dislike both men for the net harm that they've inflicted on humanity.
But if this actually went down, Mark Zuckerberg would beat the brakes off of Elon Musk.
Maybe I'm going crazy but didn't he win some regional ju-jitsu competition recently?
I know that he trains, and saw a clip of one of his matches, and he looked reasonably good for a white or blue belt.
Elon Musk is easily the most feeble of the high profile multi-billionaires. I think that even Branson would have better cardio.
Zuckerberg would close the distance on Musk immediately, take him down, and strangle him with relative ease.
The better match up would be Zuckerberg vs Bezos.
Serious question (abd a likely unpopular opinion given the comments here) but do you really think Elon has "inflicted net harn on humanity?" And did you feel that way before he bought Twitter? In my opinion, he's one of the most important persons of this century so far. Getting us to mars & making electric cars commonplace are huge for humanity.
Serious answer:
With respect to net harm, yes, yes I do mean what I said.
Yes, I did feel that way before he bought Twitter.
One of the most important is not synonymous with one of the most beneficial.
Hyping Mars is cool, but forcibly cutting corners at Space X led to a catastrophic shredding of their launch pad. I would not allow this man near the decision making level at Space X, and I mean that in precisely the same way that I wouldn't want to buy a submarine from that see the Titanic company.
In terms of mitigating the effects of climate change, every little bit counts, but electric cars is probably the least effective application of his wealth.
While his PR image may seem appealing to you, it's like you've got the Oscar Meyer Weiner song in your head; you might even sincerely enjoy the product. But that also strongly suggests that you haven't walked around on the production floor to see how it's made.
With respect to the net harm to humanity claim, the aiding and abetting of intolerance and fascism has a direct cost in human lives.
And to be clear, no matter how loyal you are to him, and no matter how much you choose to ignore in order to sustain it, you're less than an NPC to him.
I've argued musk is one of the best PR workers in the billionaire class since early days of space x.
Mars is what he tells people yet he makes the majority of his money sending spy satellites into space. Look at what he has actually accomplished. One nothing, it's all the actual engineers who work for him. Two a lot of DoD contracts and nothing on Mars, not even a satellite in orbit around Mars.
Just look deeper into his history and you will find a spoiled child who often takes over already successful companies then they do well often in spite of him. Paypal he fought against,and it became the main product of the company that is now named Paypal.
Tesla already had an working electric vehicle when he took over. Once they made there production ready car Musk fired the actual engineers who made it. Now Mercedes has the first certified level 3 self driving car and every other auto manufacturer has caught up in terms of electrification. They have little in terms of competitiveness in the short to medium term future.
He's just a good bullshitter and he didn't do so good at bullshitting the Twitter takeover. Most people still don't realize how big of a loser this son of an emerald mining company owner is.
Zuck is also a psychopath don't get me wrong but you only asked about Musk so I'll spare you.
Make it to the death!
If the pay-per-view stream of the fight doesn't include a stock ticker for their respective companies, I will be deeply disappointed.
People are gonna bet stocks on this fight, I can feel it
My understanding is that Twitter stock is a bit hard to come by right now?
I'd rather watch this than Mayweather vs Pacquiao.
Oh hey look everyone! Elon Musk is doing a thing! Let's give him the attention he so desperately craves as a man-child who never had to work a day in his life.
Loving #SpaceKaren on mastadon lol
As much as I hate the notion of giving either of these dbags money, I'm paying to see this fight.
These two guys together in the same room would create a negative charisma black hole
Let's close the loser's platform
I'm down if it's a fight to the death.
Why people mad? Men have been fighting for all of history, I'm excited to see the matchup. I don't like either of these guys so seeing one of em get beat up is a win for me.
Yeah, no matter who loses I'm cheering!
Yes, but men haven't been pillsbury doughboys for all of history.
What the fuck is this world now lol?
why would anyone agree to fight an android. zucks gonna terminate him.
What does this do for them? Does it increase the users to their platforms? Do they make enough money for it not to seem like a drop in the bucket compared to their billions? What the fuck is the point?
💀
they are men, the point is a battle of egos
This is the content we all have been waiting for
Any luck finding that bar? The last sub we sent hasn't returned.
We must go deeper!
James Cameron needs to get back in his submarine and raise the bar.
At this point the bar must be more in the realm of Otto Lidenbrock
