Drew HarwellWe found out what really happened in the stalking incident Elon Musk cited to ban @elonjet and a bunch of journalists. This is the story we were asking Musk about on Twitter when he suspended @taylorlorenz. (I'm still suspended!) https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2022/12/18/details-of-musk-stalking-incident/

The r/news discussion for our story about Elon Musk blaming @elonjet for a "crazy stalker" incident that happened 23 hours and 26 miles away:
"It kinda seems like he senselessly lashes out at individuals when he doesn't get his way"

Vincent VegaFella@drewharwell @elonjet sounds a lot like an expresident.
fartingloud 💨@drewharwell @elonjet He is like a spoiled child with behavioural problems 😔

He certainly seems like an abuser. Lashing out, tantrums, punishments. No empathy. No consideration how his actions affect others. I consider his behavior to be violent.

Andy Pearlman@elonjet @drewharwell sounds as if he has someone close to him who realizes normally, they can just blame external forces when something goes wrong. And didn't realize the power of the internet
Agora@drewharwell @[email protected] the man is NOT well.

Meteor ‘24@drewharwell @elonjet narcissistic behavior. His mother coming to his defense at every turn gives a good indication of why he is the way that he is.
