Elon Musk Leaks Streamer’s DMs on X In A Petty Beef To Defend His “Gaming” Skills
In a not-so unexpected twist Elon Musk finds himself embroiled in a public dispute with Twitch streamer Asmongold. Over gaming.
The conflict ignited when Asmongold publicly questioned Musk’s legitimacy in holding world records in the popular games Path of Exileand Diablo 4. X-user Michael, tweeting under the handle @LegacyKillaHD, highlighted Asmongold’s challenge aimed to verify that Musk was not artificially inflating his gaming statistics.
“Asmon basically called out Elon to prove he isn’t faking his Path of Exile & Diablo 4 world records,” Michael posted on X. “Elon I guess responded by just unfollowing him lmao. And yes there’s enough evidence that points to Elon hiring someone else to play on his accounts and make him look good.”
In retaliation, Musk took several controversial steps. According to the same thread, he unfollowed Asmongold, removed his own verification badge on X, and leaked private direct messages (DMs) between himself and Asmongold.
“Elon Musk has now begun leaking DMs between him and Asmon (after unfollowing him). Also removed his verification badge. And also Trashed him,” Michael updated.
The verification badge was returned soon after, but not before the users on X caught on the removal.
These actions have sparked widespread debate about Musk’s conduct, especially in light of his impending governmental role. Critics argue that such pettiness undermines the professionalism expected of a government official, regardless of Musk’s contributions to technology and business.
Further fueling the controversy, Michael and other commentators have suggested that Musk may be employing others to manage his gaming accounts to maintain an inflated image.
“There’s enough evidence that points to Elon hiring someone else to play on his accounts and make him look good,” Michael asserted, adding that Musk’s response to Asmongold’s challenge was both dismissive and indicative of an inflated ego.
Musk’s upcoming appointment as co-head of the Department of Government Efficiency is poised to reshape how governmental operations intersect with private sector innovation. However, his current public behavior raises questions about his suitability for a role that demands impartiality and a focus on systemic improvements rather than personal accolades.
