OPINION | Elon Musk is a leader, whether he lives up to the responsibility or not. His antics on Twitter aren’t a measure of a man, so much as they are windows into a destructive underbelly of American culture.
where Musk issued a crude meme featuring Jesus as Donald Trump, praying behind a woman with her dress pulled up, bent over, with the Twitter emblem on her bum.
Musk and Trump aren’t the only practitioners of toxic masculinity online, but they are a couple of the most influential—with tens of millions of followers between them. They and their acolytes fan the flames of objectification of women, laugh haughtily at claims of abuse, and promote a view of manhood that exists only to demean, defame, and disregard women.
These types of crude jokes are major HR violations—as they should be. Not only do they foster a hostile environment for women , they represent a huge step back to the days before #MeToo, when women were expected to laugh off such garbage or be labeled “difficult” or “humorless” or worse. If your workplace is Twitter, and your boss is Elon Musk acting like a pig on Twitter—how can you not feel intimidated? Who wants to be the first to stand up to the bully $245 million and 147 million Twitter followers?
