A cage fight just wouldn’t settle it
Not content with a proposed cage match against his tech rival, Elon Musk has taken his feud with Mark Zuckerberg to school-yard levels, proposing a competition of a very different sort.
Sticking with the macho theme, Musk now proposes the two billionaires drop their trousers and see whose penis is longer.
Having tweeted that “Zuck is a cuck”, Musk went on to suggest he and the Meta boss should have “a literal d***-measuring contest”. The tweet included a ruler emoji and gained over 50,000 likes by Tuesday.
A ‘cuck’, short for ‘cuckhold’, technically means cheating on someone, or having sex with someone else’s partner and is popular in rightwing circles as a term of derision.
The challenge comes as Zuckerberg’s new platform, Threads, surpassed 100 million users, Monday, according to Techcrunch, beating a record set by Open AI’s ChatGPT app. Threads, dubbed the “Twitter killer”, went live on Apple and Android app stores in 100 countries, including the UK, last Wednesday.
Zuckerberg said he “couldn’t believe” the milestone had been reached so fast.
Musk has threatened to sue.
Twitter has about 250 million active users but it has been battered by controversy and technical problems since Musk purchased amid much fanfare in October last year for $44 billion.
The dick-measuring move comes after Musk earlier set in motion an MMA match with Zuck that had led to Rome’s offering the Colosseum as a possible venue. The tech moguls had earlier agreed on Las Vegas and UFC boss Dana White is keen to make it happen. Both men are said to be very “serious” about it.
Musk started the ball rolling when he responded to a tweet warning him that Zuckerberg knows jiu-jitsu, off the back of rumours the Meta boss was starting up a platform to rival his – the now-launched, Threads.
He wrote: “I’m up for a cage match if he is.” Zuckerberg hit back with, “Send Location”.
Twitter users couldn’t quite believe Musk’s new challenge to Zuckerberg.
One wrote: “I did not have Elon Musk wanting to inspect Mark Zuckerberg’s genitals on my 2023 bingo card. I don’t think any of us did, to be honest, but here we are. Let the measuring commence.”
