Elon Musk's Self-Described "Crime Scene" - emptywheel

As Elon Musk went from pondering that "Anything anyone says will be used against him in a court of law" to labeling his own site a "crime scene," he ratcheted up attacks on people who tried to prevent some of that crime.

@emptywheel @edbott In the plain English sense of the word: Deplorable. QElon’s descent into 24/7 malicious depravity is really something to behold. And just like his presumptive idol Orange God-King, he employs hatchet men and propagandists who’ve seemingly sold (rented) their souls for as long as he deems them useful before discarding.

@emptywheel @edbott I don’t want to spend another minute on there making the wannabe despot another penny, but as infuriating as the disinformation firehose is, I’ve been sharing your debunking piece (summarizing and commenting on @mmasnick) liberally. Thank you both for those invaluable resources.
