There are very few things you can do that are a bigger asshole move than calling the person who bravely rescued a bunch of children a pedophile because you didn't get to be the hero.
- jdminhbg 4y agoNot to defend childish Twitter name-calling, but the reason he did it was that the dude picked a pointless fight with him first. Let he who has not escalated an insult battle throw the first stone.
- imilk 4y agoYour sentence is a a classic example where everything after the "but" pretty much contradicts what came before it.
- jdminhbg 4y agoNo, they are addressing two different things. The second half addresses the parent assertion that he did it simply out of spite over whose cave rescue solution worked out first.
- imilk 4y agoYou may not be personally deafening him, but you are certainly offering a possible defense. So while you say "Not to defend childish Twitter name-calling" , you are also offering a possible defense for someone calling another person a pedophile without cause.

- dpq 4y agoI might be misremembering the sequence of events, but I thought he called him names because the said hero publicly told Elon to shove the microsubmarine he was trying to build into his ass. Which kinda changes the picture entirely, at least for me.
- imilk 4y agoNot really when the "microsubmarine" solution was never going to work and every minute was vital to get the kids out alive. So more of a "piss off and let people who actually know what they're doing focus on the job" And regardless of that, it is still a massive asshole move to call someone a pedophile because they told you to shut up. Those two insults couldn't be more different in severity and social implications.
