Elon Musk took to his X account on Monday to announce his appointment as the new Chief Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DE&I) Officer for The Walt Disney Company.
The news has sent shockwaves through the entertainment industry, with many questioning the legitimacy of the claim. Disney has yet to officially confirm Musk’s appointment, and the announcement’s informal nature through a social media post raises doubts.
Further fueling the confusion is Musk’s tweet itself. His use of the phrase “make their content MORE woke! Even the linguini” suggests a satirical or mocking tone. “Woke” is a term often used to describe progressive social stances, and “linguini” appears nonsensical in this context.
While some speculate this might be an elaborate April Fool’s Day joke, it’s still early in the day (April 1st in some time zones). It’s also important to consider that Elon Musk is known for his occasional unconventional online behavior.
As of now, Disney remains silent on the matter.
