You’re not wrong. Besides having a vague visual similarity, the character also carries its own symbolic association. In English, “X” is mystery, and the unknown. It’s a signature, or a mark. Thirty years ago, it was used frequently in marketing to connect with “eXtreme” sports culture.
Musk thinks it’s the coolest letter because he’s a child.
He might be autistic, but that’s not a diagnosis you can make just watching someone online. It’s also not helpful to discuss.
We can tell though, that he’s a man-child, accustomed to being handed everything he wants, incapable of any introspection: all symptoms of extreme wealth
He’s a classic internet edgelord. “Autistic” is the spin doctor code word for antisocial. To them the thinly veiled nazi references are the height of comedy. The overall theme is that they think they’re operating on a meta level such that everyone else isn’t in on the joke.
I don’t think this is so much a wealth factor as much as it is right wing culture rot that plagues young men. Though obviously Elon isn’t young anymore but this culture dates back as old as he is. His fanboys love him because of all this. He is who they see in themselves. They are very smart but too lazy to achieve their potential because reasons. If only they had unlimited money they could beat the (((system))) that is conspires to oppress them for who they are. Namely being right leaning cis hetero white male.
Money didn’t break him. Without money he’s just another of the millions of basement dwellers who would be fanboying over some other right wing oligarch.
Not just watching him on the internet he revealed it himself. Asperger’s is a form of autism. I believe it because I’ve seen people with the same symptoms and he has a lot of the same mannerisms.
I agree, he has capacity so theres no excuse. You probably just typed this out in a hurry and didnt realise you said it, but normal isn’t the right word. Neurotypical is better.
I mean if we go that route, then the following letters are also hate symbols. m,n,o,S,X and Z if paired with the number 13. Given the number of hate numbers listed by the ADL I’m surprised that the list isn’t longer but most of them are either too low or too high to align to an ASCII value for a letter.
I’m not saying that the ascii table defines hate speech/letters. That’s slippery slope territory. I’m saying that it’s feasible that this particular fascist’s fascination with this particular letter may not be a coincidence.
He’s emotionally a child
He self-identifies as “techie”
He’s been trying to cram X into all of his projects since day one
After those picture-perfect seig heils, and years of childish petulance broadcast to the world, yeah, I’m inclined to believe X has been “clever” code for HH all along.
The rest of it is just too ghoulish to even engage with, but why the fuck is Musk so obsessed with the letter X?
looks the closest to the swastika

Musk is absolutely autistic. Nothing about him tells me he has normal thought patterns at all, so no point deciphering them.
Does that mean he deserves a pass or pity for a disability - hell no. You can be disabled and still be an asshole.

Oh, well thankfully it was Elon saying it, so we all know it’s the absolute truth.

It also just happens to be 88 in the ascii table. Could be a coincidence… but none of these fuckers deserve the benefit of the doubt at this point.

FFS. Wow. Can’t believe I missed that one.
holy shit
new lore just dropped
How inciteful (sic)!
He wanted to call Paycom something X. He has been obsessed with it for awhile.
Literally tried to name everything he’s touched x it just took until he was a multibillionaire to be able to force it through.
Indeed one of the companies who became PayPal was called x.com
