Summary
Ayo Edebiri said she received “insane death threats” after Elon Musk shared a false report claiming she would replace Johnny Depp in a Pirates of the Caribbean reboot.
The rumor, posted by a right-wing account with no industry ties, was never confirmed by credible sources. Musk, who commented “Disney sucks,” amplified the hoax.
Edebiri later called Musk an idiot and a fascist for promoting fascist right-wing rhetoric.
Meanwhile, producer Jerry Bruckheimer confirmed a reboot is in development but did not confirm Depp’s involvement.
the owner of the original account said: “I clearly stated ‘reportedly’ because it was the latest information coming from credible Hollywood sources. And yes, I am a HUGE fan and supporter of Mr Musk. He has my loyalty for LIFE, and I don’t say that lightly.”
That’s fuckin’ weird bro. Fuckin’ weird. Back in my day we used to call those kind of people flunkies and bootlickers.
Today we call them simps and glazers
I feel like bootlickers has a more negative connotation to it.
I feel ‘dick rider’ is appropriate
That’s a good one.
I don’t believe negative connotations should be applied to riding dicks. Usually it’s a win-win.
Updates Millennial vocabulary…

Or it could be another of Musk’s sock puppets. Kissing his own ass is one of his favorite hobbies.
And yes, I am a HUGE fan and supporter of Mr Musk. He has my loyalty for LIFE, and I don’t say that lightly.”
Ok fucking what? Did this dude implant Neuralinks in half the US population without anyone’s knowledge?
What an insane fucking thing to say.
If every accusation is an admission of guilt and the weirdos kept accusing Gates of implementing microchips in the vaccines then…
Oh God 😐
I don’t say that lightly.
I love it when randos say shit like this. I don’t know you. Nobody knows you. Your judgement carries no weight.
That’s the bottom line, isn’t it? Everyone deserves one’s respect, no one deserves one’s worship.
I would argue the work we’re looking for is “dignity”. Too many people disagree on what “respect” means.
