Two years later in 2022 Elon dissed Bill Gates on Twitter, posting a photo of the Microsoft mogul alongside Apple’s controversial pregnant man emoji ‘in case you need to kill a boner.’
Musk, the world’s richest person and chief executive of the American company, posted a follow-up image in response to the post of six hooded figured captioned ‘shadow ban council reviewing Tweet.’
The pregnant man emoji is aimed at being inclusive to transgender people – with Musk frequently taking aim at what he sees as overreach, while repeatedly insisting that he bears no ill-will towards the LGBTQ community.
