The one thing I realize above all else in this matter is that Elon desperately wants people to care about this so I emphatically don't care whether they're one asshole or two assholes

This is the correct answer. Let me know when this asshole makes himself useful and chokes on something

People missing the really obvious answer: Musk pays people to worship post about him, and can take direct control of those accounts when he wants (IE to defend himself in person on call).

I think it's important because for the average stream watcher, it's destroying the capitalist myth that wealthy people are somehow really smart and competent and earned their wealth. Musk is a trainwreck of a human who fell upwards. The more people who know that, the more willing they are to overthrow capitalist paradigms.

Literally just listen to his voice. "Dittmann" did some Fortnite interview shit with some streamer and it's clearly just Musk's voice. There's no way in hell some random ass Musk stan not even supposedly from South Africa has the exact same distinctive voice as him.

maia arson crimew did some investigative journalism and found a real Adrian Dittmann that definitely owns the account. He's a weird Elon meatriding sexpat in Fiji but he's a real guy

If there's anyone I trust to be honest it's the trans catgirls evading extradition to the US

He also looks like a stereotypical neo-nazi

Elon's advocate: a loser Elon superfan of that level might copy the way he talks.

It's not impossible, but wait while I'm embarrass myself with how much I'm invested in this drama.

There have been so many weird slip ups, like that moment Adrian referred to Musk in the first person; instead of saying Elon Musk did this for you he said I did this for you.

Weird things like not being able to name 3 women; getting really flustered when Grimes and Vivian are named as women.

Weird things like Musk tweeting frequentlyexcept when Adrian is playing video games

It's possible that Adrian is a superfan to such an extent that it's made him sick in the head and he basically believes he is Elon Musk, and the tweeting timing is just a coincidence.

It's also possible that having obscene wealth like hundreds of billions of dollars makes you sick in the head, and makes you think you're the smartest person in the room when you're a spoiled rotten nepo baby whose Daddy owned emerald mine slaves in apartheid South Africa and you happened to invest your stolen wealth into the right places while stealing credit for the work of smarter people.

Call me a billionaire hating anti-capitalist, but Occam's Razor favors #2.
