Elon Musk bought Twitter into a photo manipulation trend
Many people who post edited photos with content Elon Musk will buy more TikTok, Facebook, McDonald’s … and this trend is also supported by the US billionaire.
In one mockup, “Elon Musk” said he would buy the McDonald’s chain and repair the entire ice cream machine. On account Twitter personally on the morning of April 28, the richest billionaire in the world re-posted that edited photo and affirmed: “Listen, I can’t create miracles”.
Musk’s account retweeted a mock-up of himself.
The photo above is one of the content “made up” by many Internet users after the deal Elon Musk buys Twitter. By suggesting that this billionaire buy some other brands such as Facebook and TikTok, users also criticize the situation at these companies.
Musk also joined the trend. He urged people to “make Twitter super fun”. In a mocking tweet that “Musk is buying History TV and turning it into a history channel,” he replied with a tearful smiley face.
He also directly posted a tweet with the content “Next, I will buy Coca-Cola and bring back the cocaine”, referring to the soft drink company’s removal of cocaine from its products. The article attracted 2.5 million likes, nearly 500,000 re-shares after a few hours.

Although the photos were created as a joke, many people believe that Musk can completely turn them into reality. Buying Twitter was actually a joke in 2017. Then, after showing affection for this social network, a friend suggested he buy it. Musk replied: “How much does it cost?”.
However, many people think that the acquisition of Coca-Cola is impossible for the Tesla and SpaceX boss. Musk is currently the richest person in the world with an estimated net worth of $250 billion. Meanwhile, Coca-Cola’s value is more than 280 billion USD.
Jokes and fake news appeared on Twitter in the past days after Musk announced the acquisition of the platform and turned it into a “free speech square”. Many users in the US have intentionally Post information about Ivermectin – incorrect Covid-19 treatment, in order to test Musk’s claims about free speech.
The American billionaire is also known as the “meme lord”, when he often posts humorous meme photos on his personal page, and is also an investor in the digital currency “meme coin” Doge. His Twitter account now has 87 million followers, an increase of 7 million compared to before the announcement of the purchase of Twitter.
