Go away, you weird awakened kid

A new celebrity feud is taking the internet by storm as Elon Musk and Robert De Niro clash after the legendary actor took aim at the billionaire on live television. Appearing on The View, De Niro harshly criticized Musk, accusing him of spreading misinformation and using his influence irresponsibly.

De Niro, known for his outspoken political views, didn’t hold back as he blasted Musk’s handling of X (formerly Twitter), claiming the platform has become a breeding ground for misinformation and extremist rhetoric under his leadership. Aligning himself with the hosts of The View, the actor expressed concern over Musk’s increasing influence on public discourse, suggesting it has led to more division and conspiracy theories.

Musk, never one to shy away from controversy, quickly fired back with a scathing response on his platform. In a post that left many puzzled, he wrote: “Go away, you weird awakened kid.” The bizarre insult immediately went viral, with Musk’s supporters mocking De Niro, while others speculated about the meaning behind his choice of words.

The feud quickly escalated across social media, with fans and critics alike taking sides. Some praised De Niro for using his platform to call out Musk, arguing that powerful figures like the billionaire CEO should be held accountable. Others dismissed the actor’s remarks as another example of Hollywood elites lecturing the public on issues beyond their expertise.

This isn’t the first time either figure has been at the center of a public spat. De Niro has long been an outspoken critic of high-profile conservatives, frequently targeting figures like Donald Trump. Meanwhile, Musk has repeatedly clashed with politicians, journalists, and celebrities over free speech, artificial intelligence, and social media policies.

As of now, neither Musk nor De Niro have backed down, and given their history of unfiltered remarks, this high-profile feud may only be getting started.
