From ThePostMillennial.com…
Elon Musk, who is currently pursuing a $43 billion bid to take over Twitter, compared Microsoft founder Bill Gates to the new “pregnant man” emoji, saying “in case you need to lose a boner fast.” This after Musk confronted Gates about short-selling Tesla stock. In essence, this is a bet by Gates against electric car-maker Tesla.
Gates had reportedly asked Musk to meet with him to talk about “philanthropy on climate change.” But when he did, Musk reportedly asked Gates if he still held a large short position on Tesla stock.

Gates reportedly told Musk he hadn’t closed that out, and was still holding a short. This would indicate a bit of hypocrisy on the part of Gates, who as he is pursuing “climate change philanthropies,” is financially betting against an electric car company that is making change in the auto industry instead of talking about it or funding awareness initiatives.
