Elon Musk's PR transformation from youthful golden boy bastion of hope to some sort of futuristic Scrooge-esque cartoonish villain is nearly complete.

He's been at the center of a lot of ire lately, but a recent tweet has people calling him out yet again.

This time for blatant, laughable, hypocrisy.

June is Pride Month, a time to celebrate for the LGBTQ+ community and a time for corporations to slap a rainbow on everything and rake in the dough.

So we're not saying Musk is wrong if his Pride-Month-Eve tweet was trying to make some sort of commentary about corporate rainbow washing and the ways big business uses Pride Month to actually target, rather than celebrate, the LGBTQ+ community.

There are absolutely valid conversations to be had there.

Except that's not what this meme looks like to most.

Here's what he posted the night of May 31.

We're not sure what reaction Elon was going for, or what Mr. Musk was actually trying to say with the tweet.

What we do know is that Twitter reactions mostly fell into two camps.

First, we have a group we are lovingly calling "Camp WTF" because their reaction was, essentially, "wtf?"

Accurate group name is accurate.







Secondly we have "Camp Call Out."

This group of people were quick to point out that Elon's tweet makes no sense if it's supposed to be some sort of commentary on corporate rainbow washing - especially when you take into account how hard Tesla leans into Pride.

And Elon's past tweets previously supporting the same community he was now poking at.

Camp Call Out came in swinging.






So yeah, that tweet didn't go down well - like quite a bit in Musk's life lately.

After President Donald Trump lashed out at late-night host Seth Meyers on Truth Social over the weekend and called him a "truly deranged lunatic," Meyers responded to Trump’s “ranting and raving” about him with a damning supercut on his program.

Trump apparently tuned in to Thursday night’s episode of Late Night with Seth Meyers, where Meyers poked fun at the president’s complaints about Navy aircraft carriers using electromagnetic catapults instead of traditional steam-powered ones. Meyers joked that Trump "spends more time thinking about catapults than Wile E. Coyote."

Girl's Hilarious Reaction To Getting Divisive Candy For Halloween Caught On Doorbell Cam

In the '80s and '90s, kids were raised with the understanding that they got what they got, and they should say, "Thank you," for what they received. This was true for birthdays, holidays, and trick-or-treating on Halloween, even if they got candy they wanted to throw away the instant they turned the corner.

But kids today are much more communicative about what they like and don't like, and they can be brutal in their bluntness.

Speaking on The View, Georgia Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene spoke about sparring with House Speaker Mike Johnson over healthcare—and revealed that the GOP does not have any replacement for the Affordable Care Act (ACA) despite what Johnson and her fellow congressional conservatives tell the public.

Democrats have continued to reject Republicans’ proposed continuing resolution to keep the government open without considering an extension of the premium tax credit that helps subsidize health insurance for people earning between 100% and 400% of the federal poverty level.
