Elon Musk Is So Unlikable That His Feud With Random Airline Is Doing Wonders for Sales, Says CEO—Futurism, discussing the recent dustup between the Apartheid Era Emerald Heir Pedo Guy™ and the CEO of Ryanair over the latter's choice not to put Starlink™ on its planes.
Ryanair is literally offering Musk discount fares.
Elon Musk tried to pick a fight with a major airline CEO — who says thanks for all the additional business you’re bringing in with your public tantrum, sucker.
………
“We love these PR spats that drive bookings on Ryanair,” the budget airline’s chief Michael O’Leary said at a news conference in Dublin on Wednesday, as quoted by CNN. “And we want to thank him sincerely for the additional publicity.”
The trash talking began last week when the Irish airline, the largest in Europe, said it wouldn’t install its fleet with Starlink technology, a satellite-based internet service operated by Musk’s company SpaceX. O’Leary claimed that the Starlink antennas would add drag to the planes and drive up fuel costs.
Musk could barely hide the sting he felt from the snub. He initially responded by calling O’Leary “misinformed” and added that he doubted Ryanair “can even measure the difference in fuel use accurately.”
Smelling controversy, O’Leary went on a interview with the Irish radio station Newstalk to taunt the world’s richest man.
Musk even threatened to buy out the airliner and posted a poll asking his fans whether he should “restore Ryan as their rightful ruler” once he does. Clearly, Grok was not consulted before putting up the poll: the “Ryan” Musk is presumably referring to is the Irish billionaire Tony Ryan, who died in 2007.
Elon Musk is a fucking moron.
