Musk questions Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella

This is one of Musk’s several reactions to several posts related to Kirk’s assasination. In one such post, Musk tagged Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella after screenshots allegedly surfaced on X showing employees of Activision Blizzard, a Microsoft-owned company, celebrating the assassination of conservative commentator Charlie Kirk.Musk's tweet was a direct reaction to a user who had shared a "mega thread" of posts where Blizzard developers purportedly mocked Kirk after his death. Tagging Nadella, Musk wrote, “What’s going on here, @satyanadella?” In a separate post, he added, “These are Microsoft employees.”Microsoft quickly responded with a statement on X. The company acknowledged it was "aware of the views expressed by a small subset of our employees regarding recent events," adding that it takes such matters "very seriously" and is "currently reviewing each individual situation."

The statement concluded by emphasizing, “Comments celebrating violence against anyone are unacceptable and do not align with our values.

”Just a day earlier, Musk had addressed a separate claim that a former Tesla employee posted an insult about Kirk, clarifying that the person was no longer employed by the company. Since the shooting, Musk has repeatedly expressed shock and grief, condemning those celebrating the killing as "evil" and saying, "They are celebrating cold-blooded murder."
