“I’m not the boss of Twitter anymore.” During an interview with the British media BBC, Elon Musk suddenly cut off his interlocutor to tell her that he was no longer in charge of the social network. The billionaire assured that his dog Floki was in charge and specified that he is “a good dog”.
This revelation perfectly illustrates the atmosphere of the exchange between the BBC’s US correspondent, James Clayton, and the businessman. The discussion oscillated between moments of tension and relaxation depending on the topics taken more or less seriously by the billionaire. Elon Musk thus allowed himself to refer to one of his tweets from mid-February (since he posted it on his account).
Someone crazy enough to replace him
Beyond Elon Musk’s post, this joke refers to a survey conducted in December. The owner of Twitter then asked if he should leave his position at the head of the company. The “yes” had won.
After this setback, the boss assured that he would leave his position, but as soon as he had “found someone crazy enough” to replace him. Forgotten after the end-of-year celebrations, it was Elon Musk who brought the issue back to the fore in February by posting a montage of his dog, Floki, signing a contract as head of the platform with his paws.
Last joke, Elon Musk’s dog is a Shiba Inu. This breed from Japan is also the symbol of Dogecoin, a cryptocurrency that has caused a panic on Twitter in recent days. The dog’s head had replaced the platform’s traditional logo for several days.
