Why Is Matt Binder So Triggered By Elon Musk?

If you love him so much Matt Binder, why don't you marry him?

Matt Binder's been feverishly whining about Elon Musk lately, and he just can't seem to stop.


For some reason, Elon Musk is incredibly triggering to Matt Binder, which is interesting, considering Elon Musk's company has probably done more to battle climate change than any other company on planet Earth, and Matt Binder himself claims we should be spending "trillions" to battle climate change. One would think Matt Binder would worship Elon Musk for such reasons.


But, he clearly doesn't. In fact, we can't find anyone who Matt Binder seems to hate more than Elon Musk. One would think that if there's any entity or anyone Matt Binder should hate more than anyone on the face of the earth, it would be us here at EndingPolitics.com, as we've written some very unflattering articles detailing how he's not exactly the brightest crayon in the box, to say the least (here and here).


Going through Matt Binder's Twitter timeline, it's full of critical nonsense about Elon Musk over the most boring reasons one could possibly imagine.


In one recent post, Matt Binder seems upset that Elon Musk changed the Twitter logo to the unofficial Dogecoin logo. Why and how Matt Binder could get mad over such a non-issue is beyond our imagination, as well as the scope of this article. But even more hilariously, Matt Binder took to his login creds over at Mashable.com to write an entire article on the subject. In the article, Binder delicately parses his words, being careful not to directly accuse Musk of "pumping Dogecoin," but insinuating so. Our guess is Matt Binder is covering all possible bases to try to entertain his audience while avoiding being sued by Musk for libel. Binder also mentions in his article that Musk's attorneys are seeking a dismissal of a frivolous lawsuit against him, which accuses him of running a "pyramid scheme" to (in Binder's own words) "help prop up" Dogecoin. It is in fact quite a silly accusation, considering Dogecoin has no owner, and is completely decentralized. To be clear, we're not defending Musk's attempts of using Twitter to influence crypto markets, and we do in fact believe it's a sketchy method of doing business, but to claim that posting silly tweets about Dogecoin is somehow in violation of the law is ridiculous; and quite frankly, the case has major constitutional issues in regards to the first amendment. Then in his article, Matt Binder made the unprovable claim that Dogecoin was "pumped" specifically due to Musk's decision to replace Twitter's logo (which it wasn't; as of this writing, Dogecoin is only up a little over 20% on the week), and then claimed and we quote: "Dogecoin has hovered no higher than around $.06 and $.08 since the beginning of this year." This is a provably false claim, as Dogecoin hit as high as $.096 in the middle of Q1.


Check your sources, Binder; you're getting very sloppy!



But that's not all. Looking at Matt Binder's article history on Mashable.com, the vast majority of the articles he's written lately are just him whining about Twitter, Musk, or some combination of the two. Binder also hilariously loses his mind in an article he wrote a few days ago, because of Twitter's decision to raise prices for app developers to access their API. Clearly, this was a top-down business decision probably meant to discourage app developers from using Twitter's API to make Twitter more exclusive, so more people actually have to create Twitter accounts to use Twitter.com or the Twitter app itself to see Tweets, but for God-only-knows what reason, Matt Binder is upset about it. Why are you so mad, Binder? Why do you even care? Are you developing apps with Twitter's API now?


The funniest (and most ironic) part of all this is, despite Matt Binder's raging fury at Elon Musk and Twitter, he still seems to be using the platform every day. We reached out to him - via his favorite platform, Twitter - for comment, and as of this writing, we haven't heard back. We'll update this article if/when we hear back from Binder.
