“According to the New York Times, terrorists may be paying for blue check marks on Twitter (I refuse to call it X),” King wrote.

King later followed up his stand against the name by posting the word "Twitter" several times in a message critical of Musk's "need to put your personal brand in everything.”

That sure is some savage trolling... Someone else had a much better comeback

Musk attempted to ridicule King, writing, “Stop deadnaming X… Respect our transition,” in response to King’s tweet.

Alejandra Caraballo, a transgender attorney and instructor at Harvard Law School, criticized Musk’s stance by bringing his personal life into the conversation. Caraballo responded directly to Musk’s post on X with a poignant comment: “Why? You never respected your daughter’s [transition].”

So fucking glad someone called PG out on his bullshit with his daughter.

It's not an own to him though. Thought process goes like this.

Elon deadnames daughter.

Internet people mad.

Someone deadnames Twitter (Oops).

Internet people not mad.

"Aha! Hypocrites!"

Thoughts terminated.

You can't deadname a social network because it's not a person, though. It does not have feelings.

Elon's thought process has already stopped. You would have better luck explaining the nuance to a ferret.

Don't you know companies have more rights than people.

No see that would be less humane. Unlike people who don't deserve it. /s
