Elon Musk has called his take-over of Twitter “quite painful” in an unexpected late-night interview with the BBC. The tech billionaire sat down with BBC North America tech reporter Jame…

The tech billionaire sat down with BBC North America tech reporter James Clayton at Twitter’s headquarters in San Francisco on Tuesday evening local time.

“I’ve been under constant attack,” Musk continued. “It’s not like I have a stone cold heart or anything. If you’re under constant criticism or attack and that gets fed to you including through Twitter – it’s rough, you know. Now at the end of the day I think if you do lose your feedback loop that’s not good so I think it is important to get negative feedback. I don’t turn replies off and I removed my entire block list so I don’t block anyone either. So I get a lot of negative feedback.

nah, it's not like elonmusk considers himself an expert in anything &everything . . . you know, like opining what the Ukrainian President should do, what the U.S. should do to make Putin happy. nah, nothing arrogant & egotistical from a guy who's never served any country ever

He is showing us that bullying works and we must strive even harder to push his buttons

For us too 🤕

Good I hope it gets worse

Whatever

Good lmao

You're doing great 💪

KEEP IT UP LADS, WE’RE ALMOST THERE 💪💪

elonmusk go back to Africa

Snowflake

Why don't I feel sorry got this racist psychopath who fires people for fun?

gee I wonder why

Good news, everyone: it's working

Come one guys a little more and he’ll start cracking

He is the one doing the awfully stupid things, not the people calling it out.

Elon rn:

What a snowflake

Cry more

Nah it’s always good to bully millionaires

No sympathy in the Hell that he bought. Weakling

Translation: Pimping ain’t easy.

I'm sure this man said he'd be leaving the Twitter CEO chair twice

Plus, he s ugly.

It's been quite painful for all of us who had enjoyed using the platform for years, only to have it mucked up by Musk. 🙄

Thoughts and prayers

Oh no me and my billions, its almost as if people can just ignore it. Heck if he's struggling that much he can have someone else run it and just own the thing doing what he wants from time to time

he's literally the one attacking everyone lol such a man baby

To those who would mock a vulnerable statement like this, I would ask: “how would you feel if you tried to save the world and had the audacity to fail, and instead of applauding your valiant efforts the world shunned and mocked you?” Not so funny now, is it?

keep it up guys!

Boo hoo

He's gotta be trolling right? I mean you bring this on yourself. Am I missing something?

Elmo being a world class douch bag dosnt have anything to do with it I'm sure.

Good!

🎻

But he keeps trolling us and ruining the app one day at a time. You literally changed the icon to doge dog for no damn reason. 💀

Describe the pain in more detail please

Poor baby. elonmusk

What a dink

Boohoo.

“It’s not like I have a stone cold heart” Actually, elonmusk does have a “stone heart”:

I’m a lot more worried about all the people you laid off than your self inflicted wounds

Narcissist say what?

freepeeper Good.

Has he tried not fucking up quite so much?

Just cannot muster up much sympathy for some reason

He is a dirt bag....so maybe he should try not being a dirt bag.

don’t care didn’t ask

Aww. Did somewon huwt his feewings?

Awesome!

'I’ve been under constant attack. It’s not like I have a stone cold heart or anything. If you’re under constant criticism or attack...it’s rough, you know.'

Womp womp 🙄

It’s always morally correct to bully shitty billionaires.

Let's all take a moment to 'Let that sink in'

That’s awesome to hear

How very Trump of him. 🧐

“Man shoots self in foot, complains.”

Self-inflicted.

lmao

'It's not like I have a stone cold heart.' Could've fooled me, given that this what he wants people to see in twitter.

Unless he does some good... he can cry a friggin river

Hey, you were warned.

this is wonderful feedback, keep it up everyone!

Tiny violins.

Way to go guys!

JFC, the narcissism.

WHOOO CARES

Maybe if the lying leftist’s dropped off the earth it would be better for all of us.

It’s because you suck Elon

Then stop doing stupid things!

“I must confess to some delight in removing the verification badge from the New York Times,” Musk said. “Anyway they’re still alive and well so they’re doing well.” This is why you’re getting criticism, just FYI.

he's just such a victim!

elonmusk Aw poor baby billionaire. You spent a shitload of money and a shitload of time being an edgy meme-obsessed douchebag and when people decided they were fed up with your shit you cry victim. Too. Fucking. Bad.

NO ONE is crying for this pasty-faced bastard. Buh-BYE!

Great work everyone lets keep it up 👍👍

He deserves way worse though lol?

😂

Good

Man up, Musk.

Bro bought a social platform known for looking for it's 'main character of the day' so everyone can dump on them THEN decided to BE that 'main character' everyday.

Yep just what a narcissist billionaire would say lol

Musk pretending he’s a victim. Pathetic.

Do happy to hear this 🥹

Don't make yourself the main character. You could've just shut up and done your thing. But, you decided to make it all a public matter and tweet about it constantly.

Skill issue

It’s almost like he’s antagonizing people and making the platform objectively worse. That couldn’t t be it though.

Then give it to someone that actually knows how to run the fucking website

Nazis are always the first to complain that people are being mean to them

“You have no idea how hard it is being a total asshole 24/7, or how much being reviled for pushing far-right lies and conspiracy theories hurts me.”

Wah wah wah. elonmusk is a fucking baby.

Another billionaire claiming to be a victim.

poor little bitch baby

'Man who recklessly bought a company for more attention is upset that not everyone likes him.'

Hang in there elonmusk

well I imagine it sucks to trash your carefully manufactured image as a visionary genius forever

Keep it up everyone we can make it worse for him!

Does being a multi-billionaire take some of the sting off that?

Oh boo hoo 😂😂😂

Good

singing the paid blues

I hope he’s miserable every second of every day.

Elon Musk is not the Tony Stark ( Ironman ) we thought he was, but actually a real life James Bond villain.

aaaw poor baby … but the putin’s monetary compensation will make the sads go away

Womp womp

It's almost like everyone we talk to is a human being and not just the objects of our disdain.

Boohoo says the troll

Boo hoo richman sad 😢

This is your headline!? elonmusk obliterated the BBC and this is the angle you come up with!? Maybe he should interview you all next and put some egg on your face. Actually you already do a good enough job of that yourself. What a joke.

He has no one to blame but himself. A wholly avoidable and unforced error.

Why is it painful? Russians expect quick results from Musk?

really elon

Blud thought it would be easy😭

Good

Elon Musk makes big investment in generative-AI project at TwitterElon Musk is moving forward with a new generative AI project at Twitter after purchasing thousands of GPUs How unpredictable... time to delete account. Elon Musk is the consummate liar. Seems he only signed on to that missive about the dangers of AI to pave the way for his own product(s) using this technology. I wouldn't be surprised if this unethical, megalomaniacal robber baron tries to corner the market on it. What a crook. I've got the brand name. It's 'unb[IA]sed'. elonmusk DM me so we can negotiate it
