Much to our chagrin, the fight between Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg never materialized. But the eccentric genius is still out for blood, getting into it with entrepreneur Mark Cuban. Tesla and SpaceX CEO has been in a spat with Mark Cuban over the diversity issue in the workforce.
Both billionaires have widely different takes on diversity in the workplace. Elon Musk has criticized it, but Mark Cuban has staunchly defended it. The war of words now exists on frequent social media posts, where the 52-year-old business roasted Cuban for his inability to stick to a perspective.
Elon Musk Laughs At Mark Cuban In Latest Social Media Post
Things started with Elon Musk criticizing United Airlines’ pilot training academy, United Aviate Academy. Their goal of having 50% female and/or people of color as their graduates ticked the billionaire off. Mark Cuban took to social media to explain the value of DEI (diversity, equality, and inclusion) initiatives to the SpaceX founder and CEO. But the tech mogul cut off Mark Cuban’s explanation, labeling the policy as racist.
As a deep cut, Elon Musk urged the Cuban to “put an Asian woman and a white woman on his basketball team” on his partially owned basketball team, Dallas Maverick. The former Twitter (rebranded as X) CEO has taken another sarcastic jab at Cuban in the latest social media post. It reads, “If mental gymnastics were an Olympic sport, Mark Cuban would be a perfect 10.”
