Current Events > Elon Musk getting constantly glazed on twitter makes me wonder

(+) Yeah! (+)

Imagine the levels of second hand embarrassment everyone in the meeting room would have experienced when he had to coach his engineers to change the system to do that for him.

"Guys, what I like, need you to do is, make sure I always look good on twitter. Use quantum mechanics."
"Use...quantum mechanics?"
"Dyson spheres. Mars terraforming. If anyone sees me nazi saluting you're all getting fired btw."

most of the praise he gets comes from bots

Elon: "Make me look good! Show everyone how I am super cool and people like me!"
Engineers: "Can you just stop being a white supremacist pushing racist conspiracy theories?"
Elon: "STOP BEING A PEDOPHILE! YOU'RE FIRED!"

It's all bots or people who get paid for engagement on his platform.

It's not real.

I wonder what they said to the poor college grad who found out his job is to fabricate thousands of accounts to gaslight his idiot boss into thinking people like him.

*kidnaps a chief engineer*

"I have a website. Can you make it go?"

If glazing him would factually make me rich then I would do it but since it won't then I won't do it.

Yeah, I really hate that word. That's what comes to my mind and I can't think of any context for that word that could possibly just mean "compliments".

That is what it is.

this. iirc something like 50+ percent of twitter are bot accounts.

twitter is, literally, over 80% bots

like

this has actually been proven.

That's probably because it's not a complimentary term.

When you say someone is being glazed you're saying they're being excessively and ridiculously flattered in a way that should make any normal person feel ashamed

Before "glazed", I used to call it "fluffing". Essentially the same thing metaphorically speaking.

Well, if we're using the original definitions, they're two distinct parts of the same process >.>

Let me guess who was kiddnapped: Geordi?

Bots. Bots. Bots.

Nobody cares about Musk outside of Russian propaganda and bots.

Did you fall for it? It's fine. I did too.

But realize he's an idiot.

College???
It's cheaper just to hire kids straight out of high school.
If he did it for doge, he will definitely do the same for xcrement.

You're right, I was not cynical enough.

Hes really only glazed by 3ish big accounts he boosts that are people from India on his payroll.

If you sort by newest replies to them (to cut out all the engagement bots) its all people roasting Elon, posting unflattering pics of him, and making fun of the glaze account. Funny stuff.

If only back when Elon said Twitter was lying about there being no more than 5% bots on the platform people had believed him and let him back out of the deal, rather than relentless mock the fact that he had no choice but to buy the platform.

You can best believe any famous/popular post from someone, there are dozens of blue check bots and people of full of shit at the very top of the comment list

It's actually worse than YouTube comments

Didn't think that was achievable. There's like next to no reason to engage on that platform
