Billionaire Elon Musk, who has become a master troller on Twitter, the platform he is attempting to buy, as evidenced once again on Friday.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) tweeted a remark that Musk believed was directed at her, then responded with a brutal one-liner.
“Tired of having to collectively stress about what explosion of hate crimes is happening bc some billionaire with an ego problem unilaterally controls a massive communication platform and skews it because Tucker Carlson or Peter Thiel took him to dinner and made him feel special,” she wrote.
Musk had the perfect response to her.
“Stop hitting on me, I’m really shy,” he said with a blushing emoji.
Stop hitting on me, I’m really shy ☺️
— Elon Musk
Later, Ocasio-Cortez said in a tweet that she was actually talking about Facebook founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg but she deleted it.
So thinks Tucker and Theil took Zuckerberg out to dinner? I guess not, she deleted it her lying tweet.

Before those tweets, there were others by the two-term far-left lawmaker that appeared to also be swipes at Musk on Friday.
“Billionaires be like ‘the extreme far left is taking over’ when the ‘extreme far left’ in the US is ‘medicine shouldn’t bankrupt you,’ ‘ wages should cover rent,’ & ‘maybe it’s bad that Wall St companies profit off mass surveillance, manufactured housing crises, and caging people,’” she said.
“The number of billionaires in the US couldn’t even fill an apartment building, but the number of people they negatively impact is only growing. All the US billionaire votes combined couldn’t even come in 2nd for an NY city council election. That’s why they stay pressed,” she added.

AOC’s tweets may have been a response to tweets Musk made earlier that shredded the far left.
“The far left hates everyone, themselves included!” he tweeted. He later followed that with another tweet giving a tepid condemnation of the “far-right.”
