Hack? It's not even that. Just musk in his infinite wisdom enabling pay-to-get-checkmark on Xitter so all the fake/satire accounts immediately jumped on the opportunity.

Oh, was that it? I'd heard someone had hacked the EL Twitter account. That's even dumber. Thanks for the correction and highlighting how much dumber the fallout was, luckily my misunderstanding didn't take away from the main point.
