Elon Musk is perhaps the most influential entrepreneur in modern history. The SpaceX head is not exempt from public controversy, however, with his most recent spat coming in the form of a very public back-and-forth with airline Ryanair and their CEO Michael O’Leary.In the latest update on their escalating feud, Ryanair posted a video to X of their mascot delivering Elon Musk's farcical “free flight" outside X headquarters in Dublin, Ireland. This references the “Great idiot seat sale” promotion the airline ran on social media and their website, where they openly target Musk and attack his intelligence.Once the most recent Ryanair clip surfaced online, social media users were quick to weigh in with their perspectives. One X user questioned,"Gonna take him to Mars?"Another X user commented,“peak trolling! clearly the only one that can rival elon's trolling”One X user wondered whether it was all a tactic so that Elon Musk actually buys the company.“Ryanair is desperate to get bought. They're taunting Elon so he actually does it.”While another X user pointed to the job the airline’s marketing team is doing in the context of the public feud between the two CEOs,"RyanAir please give your marketing team a raise."Finally, one X user cautioned Ryanair with a warning, as they are ultimately provoking one of the most powerful men on the planet.“You’re a budget airline, please chill.It seems as though there is currently no end in sight for the conflict between Elon Musk and Ryanair, especially considering the viral response it has garnered over time.Elon Musk’s recent net worth spike, Tesla shares, moreIn other news about the Tesla CEO, Forbes reports that as of Thursday, January 22, Elon Musk’s net worth grew to $788 billion after Tesla shares rose more than 4%.
