Over the years, Mark has discovered a passion for Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, a sport he takes very seriously and trains regularly. Having recently won his first competition, he respects the sporting values ​​that Jiu-Jitsu conveys. He became so enthusiastic that he even installed an octagon in the garden of his house located in Palo Alto, California, in grand his wife’s mother, who was not very happy to find such equipment on her lawn.

From grand anything

Many statements by Elon Musk around combat he wants to woo with Mark Zuckerberg. Two giants from tech each seems to harbor a grudge against the other, in their combat impose a better network social. On the one hand, Zuck seems to be the voice of reason suggesting match professionally organised. On the other hand, Musk was the first to accept such combat before completely immersing yourself in the peanuts. This one wanted to fight, but first he needed a spinal operation, then finally no, and now an operation on his right shoulder, which should prevent him from fighting for several months. He also suggested that combat or the gladiator theme in Italy, where everything that appears on the screen will have a Roman look. This was followed by the famous private messages, where Musk invited Zuk to come to his house to do round training in son garden. Faced with the rejection of the Meta’s boss, Tesla makes threats.

The mask crosses the line

It seems Musk would really do anything and everything to get media coverage, no matter how bad it is for him. son painting. Elon embodies here the idea that there is no such thing as bad publicity, which is ultimately not surprising when on knows that this one long ago fired the Twitter press team (or X, to stay on topic), which now replies with an automated email containing the poo emoji.

For Tesla FSD test drive in Palo Alto tonight, I’ll ask car To drive To @fincdX house. Will also test latest X live so you can follow our adventure in real-time! If we receive lucky and Zuck my ???? actually opens the door, fight is on! — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) August 14, 2023

This time CEO X went too far, tweeting that he was going to go to Zuckerberg’s house in Palo Alto that same evening using Tesla’s offline navigation to fight him, sharing son travel live on X. Pretty cheeky to see that he says he won’t hesitate to show Mark’s house while, according to Musk, sharing the moves son own private jet on Twitter meant sharing data that could lead to son murder… Even if there is very little chance that Musk will actually make this journey, on it is clear that this one is moving from provocation to menace in his posts.

Answer from Tsuka’s camp

Inevitably, Zuckerberg’s communications department had the sense to respond with reason:

“Mark travels, but not in Palo Alto. He takes the sport seriously and won’t fight anyone who comes to his house uninvited.”

It’s not very difficult given Musk’s behavior, but it’s clear that Mark is reacting here in the most mature way. One of the two giants tech This.

My point of view

As much as I love controversial characters like Elon Musk and his very unconventional way of doing things, this latest prank has gone too far. Elon increasingly lacks seriousness in his statements. While the provocation obviously had an entertaining side, Musk crosses the line here, infuriatingly. He grand it’s time for the richest man in the world to turn the page, as Zuckerberg seems to be doing, and make humanity dream again by causing the conquest of Mars with SpaceX again, or even offering more affordable electric cars with Tesla. Too much Elon, too much.
