    Aram Shabanian, an OSINT manager at New Lines Institute, told Motherboard he was surprised that the Taliban would endorse the “up-and-coming warlordism of Elon Musk's Twitter.”

    “Zuckerberg is clearly the Mullah Omar of this situation,” Shabanian said, referring to the founder of the Taliban and previous ruler of Afghanistan.. “You may not like him, but at least you know what you're getting. And it's uniform across platforms and districts. Unlike going with Musk, who represents a lawless, profit-driven society. Musk is all balls, no shaft, as the ancient Armenian proverb goes.”

    Bodes poorly for the shaft-measuring contest melon-musk was calling for recently.
