Ignoring it is a bit different thinking than thinking it was just further evidence of his very obvious emotional state.

If having no values or principles means giving an emotional black man a break from accusations of being horrible when he thought yet another black person was gunned down by police wrongfully, I think I'll be OK with that. [Reply]

Your lack of accountability for the guy demanding accountability is noted. [Reply]

Or when people are making fun of him and he just starts making up new rules to ban parody accounts as a result, right?

Certainly sounds like he was embarrassed about it to me. [Reply]
"Who cares if he wrongfully accused a hero of doing something evil, then after learning the facts, chose not to apologize or even acknowledge that he did anything wrong EVER to this day? He was just an emotional black man! (But I'm also not defending him)." [Reply]

This is why I continue to call you disingenuous. You keep saying this as if he didn't double down after learning the fact. Not knowing the facts isn't an excuse when you double down AFTER learning them and NEVER hold yourself accountable. Stop fucking pretending that his actions ended with the first tweet.

This entire LeBron tangent was deflection from having to further defend Elon. :-)
I didn't draw an analogy. I was making a point about your hypocrisy in regards to using an emotional reaction as an excuse.
It was ok for Lebron to have an emotional reaction in response to a complete stranger (which he was wrong about), but Elon can't have one in response to his own family being attacked/harassed (actually happened).
No the Lebron tangent was my way of proving that you're a giant fucking hypocrite, which is ironic considering that's what you were accusing Musk of being.
Again, like Lebron you don't hold yourself to the same standards that you hold others to. That's a tell tale sign of a shitty person. [Reply]

I think we have a far different definition of "doubling down." [Reply]

Comparing Elon Musk's emotional reactions to LeBron's emotional reactions is drawing an analogy.

It was an attempt to further deflect and engage in the ad hominem rather than directly defending the indefensible (Elon Musk's idiotic actions/words with respect to Twitter). [Reply]
For crying out loud, he didn't even say that he deleted the tweet because he didn't have to facts or that he was wrong. He literally claimed he deleted it because it was being "used to create more hate".
The guy is a POS that talks about accountability while simultaneously displaying none whatsoever. [Reply]

I understand the emotional reaction he had though and I don't think he's a piece of shit for it.
Stop being a disingenuous fucking liar. The answer is no. That's 2nd tweet was the end of the discussion for him. He never did, and never will, because he only believes in accountability for others.
