Set phasers to KICk-A*S: Elon Musk's response to William Shatner's very public support for his Twitter buy is simply PERFECTION
Twitchy.com ^ | 5/1/2022 | Sam Janney

As Twitchy told you Friday, William Shatner has chosen to embrace Elon Musk’s purchase of Twitter, unlike many of the other sad, frothy-mouthed, chest-thumping, thin-skinned babies in Hollywood. In a world full of George Takeis, always be a William Shatner.

Remember that.

Here’s Shatner’s tweet to refresh your memory.

BTW, since it seems to be the latest “thing” on here. I’m stating that I’m staying on Twitter. Besides I think @elonmusk is adorbs. Also, full disclosure: I’m trying to pitch Elon to hire me as face of Twitter. #dumpthebird 😉😏

We waited for Elon to respond on Friday, but the guy is busy. Heck, Friday night he was destroying AOC on Twitter and c’mon, there are only 24 hours in a day, ya’ know.

But he did get back to Shatner last night.

WE LOVE THIS.

You will always be my Captain

— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) April 30, 2022

So instead of blue checks, people will start getting blue ‘Federation Emblems'? This Trekkie nerd is totally in support of that, just sayin’.

Seriously how freaking fun is all this? Tuning in to cultural icons joking with each other? Do we really have to brace for the cancel tsunami?

— Annie Oakley (@GotMyAR15) April 30, 2022

This isn't true.

*snort*

We’re not sure who’s behind this Ministry of Truth account but huzzah.

You should just rename twitter to Shatner and instead of tweets we'll call them "shats" 🤣🤣 I'm sure it'll go over well

— JockNerdy (@RetroRespectiv) April 30, 2022

And there you have it.

Except ‘shats’? Could be oddly accurate considering what a cesspool Twitter can be.

Mine too. I grew up watching Star Trek reruns on weeknights, and fell asleep every night gazing at this photo on the wall at the foot of my bed. 🖖 pic.twitter.com/JSXIwV6vdy

“O Captain, My Captain” @WilliamShatner

— Lorie Medina (@LorieMedinaTX) April 30, 2022

Seems like a natural fit.

— Lonnie Spivak (@lonniespivak) April 30, 2022

It really does.

Elon loves Kirk, that’s just icing on top of the cake.

Yes, I love adorbs Elon Musk & William Shatner, AKA Capt James Tiberius Kirk! Second time I'm pointing this. I forgot to put in the article url first time. I was trying to put link in comment, but Amazon Fire Tablet wouldn't do it. Then I found out article pulled. Okay, here I go again. Read Twitchy article to see all tweets properly formatted, plus graphics & photos.

Shatner is a lib that got left behind in the woke extremist push hard leftward. I like him, but what makes him likeable even being a liberal is hes older, hes a classic liberal, hes not a woketard history revisionist socialist Karen.

He not a complete and utter ignorant hypocrite, like the younger ones tend to be. Hes actually someone at least you could have a civil conversation with and have a beer with and get along with as a person.

Again... Like it used to be. Up until a couple years ago I was on there since 2006. :)

If I weren’t so lazy, I’d start a company to produce shirts with that saying on the front.

That kind of lib is an endangered species, with most of the few survivors “shatting” all over themselves in nursing homes.
