   😳 Elon Musk allegedly enjoys having sexual relations with female employees‽ Okay, I am going to be semi-skeptical about this. Not because I do not believe these could be true, but the sheer number of them seems to be higher than “normal” (at least for a company this size).

   I would not be surprised if #Musk bans Wall Street Journal from #X / #Twitter in the future.

     @GreenFire @andypiper @verge 😂 I remember reading that report & was like, “Yeah, that sounds like something Musk would say!” I am not sure if he would say it while jesting or if it would be a serious offer.

     @darnell @verge ... but this has been widely reported on before?

     @andypiper @verge Yeah, but it seems as if Elon is forming his own personal harem at SpaceX. This would be highly unusual!

     @jjLitke @verge There seem to be way more than three from what Wall Street Journal was reporting. Most were connected to Elon Musk which (if true) would be very alarming.

     @verge @darnell Three is too high a number to be believed?

     @jjLitke @verge I am not taking Musk’s side; I am just shocked by the sheer number of WSJ is hinting at. It’s not Trump level, but Elon would easily be in third place (behind Bill Gates & Trump) if all of these allegations are true.

     Either the WSJ report is slightly exaggerating (a possibility), or Elon Musk is running the most expensive Harem on Earth (a very strong possibility).

     @verge @darnell Okay. The article you linked mentioned three, same for other articles I’ve seen, so you’re now speaking about a dataset that I don’t have. That said, I don’t know why you’d jump to take Musk’s side, especially since these are far from the first or only such accusations about him.
