Elon Musk Caught In 4K Stealing Memes From Hard Drive Magazine

On Monday, future Twitter owner hopeful Elon Musk tweeted out a meme, as he often does. This time, however, things did not go as they normally do. Instead of the usual hahas, trolls and crypto scams inundating the replies, it was instead full of callouts, for the meme itself was from an article made by Hard Drive Magazine (one piece of the trifecta of satire news websites) and the people were letting him know.

So elon musk reposted a Hard Drive article without credit and when he got called out for it (and ratio'd) he deleted the original post and whined about wokeness.

To top it all off he then declared the meme wasn't that funny anyway so THERE. Actual spoiled child behavior lmao. pic.twitter.com/eUMI0NNwjf

The situation escalated when Hard Drive themselves tweeted at Musk, creating a back and forth in which Hard Drive created a new article solely to spite Musk, who said that it was unfunny like an SNL skit. This turned out to be an easy "self-own" for Hard Drive to use, as Musk seemingly forgot that his Wario Elon Musk appearence on SNL was so disliked of an event that it actually helped to tank the value of Dogecoin the night it happened.

Though Musk deleted his tweets shortly after, it was too late as more people took notice of the bubbling Twitter beef, with some calling the whole situation a massive L for him.

Elon Musk is constantly taking Ls this year:

- Cucked by a trans woman
- Ratio’d by Hard Drive Mag
- Tesla stock tanks
- Sexual Harassment lawsuits
- Teslas exploding and recalled
- Tried buying twitter to stop people clowning on him, failed
- Getting sued for stock manipulation

Be careful if you live in Austin cause Elon Musk got ratiod three times in a row by Hard Drive and got so mad he went on an angst drive and there's a good chance he'll just turn on the autopilot and set it to Pedestrian Killer https://t.co/rT6OgYt9Jo

After all was said and done, Hard Drive did the polite thing and apologized to Musk, writing an entire article about it on its website and tweeting it out for people to get an update on.
