Elon Musk Tweets Meme Blaming Facebook for U.S. Capitol Riot
SpaceX and Tesla CEO Elon Musk has tweeted a meme that suggests Facebook is in part to blame for supporters of President Donald Trump storming the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday. . .
Musk shared an image of a man setting off a chain of white dominos, which is known as the Domino Effect or Slippery Slope meme. The image is used to signify how a seemingly insignificant event can go on to have big consequences.
Referring to Facebook’s origins in Facemash, a website that allowed students at Harvard to rate women’s looks, the text box beside the smallest domino reads: “A website to rate women on campus.”
The text box by the largest domino features a message from New York Times journalist Mark Leibovich on the newspaper’s live stream from Congress, reading: “The Capitol seems to be under the control of a man in a viking hat.”
