Middle-aged tech billionaires Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg are threatening to cage fight each other. And yes, it’s all very stupid.
Two of the world’s foremost middle-aged tech billionaires are threatening to cage-fight each other. And yes, the whole thing is as dumb as it sounds.
The verbal jabs between the two billionaires in question, 51-year-old SpaceX and Tesla CEO Elon Musk and 39-year-old Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, began on Tuesday when Musk responded to a tweet about Meta’s rumored forthcoming Twitter rival.
“I’m sure Earth can’t wait to be exclusively under Zuck’s thumb with no other options,” Musk tweeted in response to the initial post. And when one user responded that Musk should be “careful” because Zuck “does jiu-jitsu” now, the mercurial billionaire decided to take things up a notch.
“I’m up for a cage match if he is lol,” Musk quipped, adding an extremely mature “Zuck my [tongue out emoji].”
Now, you might be thinking: Musk, in his 50s, is clearly acting like a child, so maybe Zucko will step up as the adult in the room and refuse to engage.
