The Twitter creator offered “a literal dick-measuring contest” and labeled the Facebook co-founder a “cuck.”
Elon Musk, the founder of Twitter, has intensified his dispute with Mark Zuckerberg, a fellow billionaire in the technology sector, by calling him a “cuck” and suggesting that the two leaders of the social media industry should compete by measuring their male anatomy.
Musk declared on Twitter on Sunday that Zuck is a cuck. “I suggest measuring dicks literally.”
Musk and Zuckerberg, who are currently the richest and seventh-richest people in the world, have been exchanging jabs on social media for weeks. The CEO of Facebook parent company Meta Platforms Inc., Mark Zuckerberg, accepted Elon Musk’s invitation to a cage match last month.
On the social media front, their antagonism has also intensified. Just five days after its formal introduction, Threads, Meta’s new social media site that resembles Twitter, topped 100 million members. Last week, Meta received a cease-and-desist letter from a law firm representing Musk, alleging that the business had used Twitter’s trade secrets to create Threads.
Cheating is unacceptable, according to Musk’s post from last week. He claims that Meta employed numerous former Twitter workers who had access to the social media network’s intellectual property to create Threads as a “copycat” service.
No one on the Threads engineering team was a former employee of Twitter, according to Meta spokesman Andy Stone, who refuted the claims.
A other platform owned by Meta, Instagram, has a companion app called Threads. On Saturday, Musk slammed the idea behind the new business, stating that it was essentially “Instagram without the photos, which makes no sense given that thirst photos are the main reason people use that app.” When reading comments on Instagram pictures, how often have you wished there were more? No, personally.
