Brumar, it seems the Muskperger's video game "scandal" (yes, I think it qualifies as one) is spreading like wildfire among the entire video game community.

YouTubers, Twitch streamers, Discord chats, Reddit, Steam discussion forums, all of video game social media, is talking about how Musk lied about being one of the top gamers on Path of Exile 2.

Some random points:

- Given that the current season of Path of Exile 2 started just a few weeks, ago, Musk would have had to play on his account every waking hour on every day in order to level up his character as shown.

- Unlike on Diablo 4, in Path of Exile 2, people can see where a player logged into his account from. And they discovered that some IP address in Asia (maybe Hong Kong) was the one logging into Musk's game account. So you see, Musk is outsourcing his character piloting needs to Asia instead of relying on an American to do the job.

- Young white males were cited as a reason why Trump won. Imagine those same young white males, most of whom are avid gamers, and how they must feel after Musk does something that go beyond cringe. Some of them must obviously be going through buyer's remorse.

- This is probably not much different than Trump claiming to be such a good golfer, and the Trump cucks on this thread (I'm looking specifically at Bill and the Smooth Brained Mini-golfer69) backing him up on his claims. Unfortunately for the Muskperger, it's a lot easier to prove that Musk is FOS than it is to prove that Trump is FOS on his golf skills.

- Finally, imagine you're the richest guy in the world who has now become the most powerful man's right-hand lieutenant. And yet you're still so miserable and so insecure that you have to fake being one of the best video gamers in the world.

This is not a guy with a stable mindset. This is a guy who is self-destructing as we watch.

And he's going to be in charge of cutting a multi-trillion dollar federal budget? Only MAGA cultists would think this is a good idea.
