This seems like it makes sense on at least 2 levels, either because he's saying he at some point had the 'woke mind virus' and deleted it, or more likely he's saying this is what people need to do to 'free' themselves of the 'woke mind virus'.
You don't have to endorse it to understand it. I don't really understand Hazel's confusion.
The confusion is an affectation they're putting on because the execution of the joke is just so poor.
I especially love that he didn't say where he was running rm -rf and I like to believe it's from root, so he lobotomized himself.
He's saying the enemy is within and must be wiped out completely.
Recursively and forcefully remove virus at Localhost.
Just sent to a friend and I broke it down like this
The commands wouldn't work on Linux/Unix due to the format. But.. They don't need to if you're just sending a message.
127.0.0.1 means the local machine. The host.
rm is remove. -r is recursively. -f means use force if necessary.
The commands, when put together, would look something like this:
traceroute wokemindvirus (find the location of and path to the virus)
The virus has been located at localhost (internally)
rm -rf /127.0.0.1/wokemindvirus
Remove, forcefully and recursively until nothing is left, the woke virus, in the local host - USA.
In other words, the enemy within must be wiped out.
Tell me I'm crazy.
It's such a stupid joke that I prefer to interpret it like this:
He discovered that he is the source of the woke mind virus, and then he forcefully lobotomized himself.
This is neither programming nor humurous. Wrong community.
He knows as much about Unix as he knows about PoE2
Is Elon trying to say he deleted his own brain because his behavior would prove that theory
I've also heard 127.0.0.1 referred to as Home, so maybe he kicked another kid out of his house?
Or deleted his own home to remove the wokeness
Precisely, thank you for illustrating.
Obligatory: not mine just pulled from Google images. Looks like morning brew logo in the corner
He's trying to say "I'm attention seeking, look at me!".
sudo rm -fr - -no-preserve-root
The magic spell that removes the woke mind virus, but only if used on the main twitter server as a high level admin user with full access.
Just tell everyone it's to delete the french language pack.
Scanning 104.244.42.129 for fascist_bullshit
fascist_bullshit found!
Adding host to block list.
gameindustry.eu/ good site for tracker blocking etc in games
I think his school teachers, diagnosing him as retarded, were spot on.
Days after exposing himself as a fake poser of a gamer, Elon has conveniently (again) reminded us he's also a fake poser of a programmer
@theneverfox @HiddenLayer555 Euh... that's network / sysadmin more than programming .
Not if you're a Bash programmer ·υ·
He exposed himself as a poser especially as a bash programmer
He is still bad at it

Anyone else besides me want a moratorium on musk spam? No one should have to see anything he tweets.
Please.
If I wanted to read Musk, I'd follow him.
If I wanted to see someone's tweets all day, I'd be Twitter instead of Lemmy.
I use Lemmy to read Lemmy, not to be reading screenshots of Twitter in Lemmy.
Thanks.
Monetize this spam with $8 donations please.
I don't even have X, but everywhere I go there's an Elon's tweet

woke_mind_virus deleted rm -rf... wow this guy sure knows his UNIX!
Always a good idea to delete a binutil right?
No see, he's saying the woke_mind_virus is protecting him! He can no longer accidentally run the rm command and erase his entire mind. It's 4d cheese or whatever to tell the woke they are actually correct and this right wing posturing is a plot /s

He's saying what everyone else already knows. He's infected and diseased
This is like someone who doesn’t speak English, finds a dictionary, and then puts random words together hoping to sound like they speak English.
He is such a fucking moron.
Uhh he should know all the Elite hackers call it Tracer-T
Remember this blast from the past?

He saying he used to be woke?
I mean, there was a period about 15 years ago when he seemed to be the only rich person actually talking about climate change, doing something that might make some difference (investing in an electric vehicle startup, and later a rooftop solar startup) and seemed to actually be concerned about it. I now question if that was just an act or not.
On the other hand there is the theory that he fell down the right wing social media pipeline during the pandemic and that's why he's seemed to have such a sudden shift on political party affiliation. I like that theory because I think it's kinda funny to imagine one of the richest men in the world being too cooped up and spending too long doomscrolling to the point that he became radicalized by social media algorithms
