Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg engage in a bizarre and heated feud, with Musk unleashing the controversial 'cuck' insult, adding fuel to their ongoing rivalry.
In a bizarre and heated feud between tech titans, Elon Musk has shocked the online world by unleashing the controversial ‘cuck’ insult against Mark Zuckerberg, adding a new chapter to their ongoing rivalry.
What Happened: During the weekend, Musk delivered a scathing insult at Zuckerberg, further igniting their already fiery rivalry.
Public attention was drawn to the feud when the official Wendy’s account on Meta’s newly launched decentralized social media platform dubbed as Twitter clone, Threads, got involved, suggesting that Zuckerberg should “go to space” just to really make the tech billionaire mad.

Zuckerberg’s response, a crying laughing emoji, appears to add fuel to the fire, as Musk was far from amused by this conversation.
When a Twitter Blue subscriber praised Musk for protecting free speech while accusing Zuckerberg of safeguarding only “brand speech” while sharing a screenshot of the conversation, the Twitter owner chose to take an unconventional route and replied saying, “Zuck is a cuck.”
Why It’s Important: This was not the first time Musk publicly criticized Zuckerberg following the launch of Threads, as he spent the weekend engaging with other verified accounts disparaging his social media rival.
Musk’s relentless mockery did not go unnoticed. His description of Threads as just Instagram “minus pics” raised eyebrows, particularly given the prominence of thirst pictures on the platform. Musk questioned the app’s value without the inclusion of thirst pictures, highlighting his bemusement at the concept.
Similarly, Twitter was set ablaze last week when a user posted a screenshot of an old conversation in which Zuckerberg casually mentioned having access (via Facebook) to a vast amount of personal information from Harvard University students.
