Elon Musk gets roasted on his own platform by Joyce Carol Oates.

Like an ancient cyborg culling through the ruins of a post-apocalyptic planet (twitter, derogatory), Joyce Carol Oates recently fired her full-power death ray at aspiring trillionaire Elon Musk, whose childish attempts to justify his riches prompted this, from JCO (who will never stop tweeting).

Only a novelist could be this brutal, for unlike your average shitposter who relies on soy boy/chad memes, JCO opts here instead to get at the heart of Elon’s broken humanity, itemizing with a surgeon’s precision that which he has so clearly lost, and will likely never regain. As the billionaire class continues with wanton avarice to destroy the planet (and everyone on it) it’s nice to see, even if for a moment, a billionaire get destroyed in his own grubby little playroom. So thanks, Joyce.
