Wil Wheaton weighs in on Elon Musk’s Trent Reznor dig!
Twitter’s Elon Musk-era mess is nothing more than “one man’s mid-life crisis” — with “dangerous” implications. That’s according to Wil Wheaton, who slammed the new Twitter owner on Facebook this week after Elon used his $44 billion social media platform to call Trent Reznor a “crybaby” for leaving Twitter to protect his mental health. Elon’s (super grown-up) public dis of the Nine Inch Nails artist came after Trent told The Hollywood Reporter he was ditching Twitter because it’s “toxic,” per HuffPo. “We don’t need the arrogance of the billionaire class to feel like they can just come in and solve everything,” Trent said. “Even without [Elon] involved, I just find that it has become such a toxic environment. For my mental health, I need to tune out. I don’t feel good being there anymore.” Having apparently caught wind of Trent’s remarks, Elon then replied to his own tweet about his decision to let Donald Trump back on the platform with this: “It turns out that Trent ‘nine inch nails’ Reznor is actually a crybaby.” Things didn’t get less juvenile from there. A fan promptly deemed Elon a “stupid idiot” for insulting Trent, to which Elon replied: “I like his music tbh, but maybe Etsy is more his style.” Cue Wil Wheaton! Over on Facebook, the “Stand By Me” alum weighed in with a long post in which he said he said he can’t “fathom the emptiness, the insecurity, the insatiable need for attention and validation, the staggering arrogance, the malevolence and total void of human experience” that is Elon Musk. Wil, 57, went on to slam Elon, 50, for bullying users “like the weak, scared, insecure child he has always been.” Wil continued: “That’s a tragedy for him, but it’s dangerous for us. He doesn’t care what he destroys or who he hurts as he chases this existential thing he can not ever have. … He’s a hurt person who is hurting our society, making people I care about less safe. The consequences of this one man’s midlife crisis are global, and that terrifies me.”
