New proof suggests Elon Musk is cosplaying his superfan Adrian Dittmann

Rumors that viral Elon Musk fanboy Adrian Dittmann is definitely a pretend on-line persona utilized by Musk himself have been reignited following recent proof linking the pair. Web sleuths are pointing to a string of current exercise from Dittmann’s X account and alleged 4Chan posts that characteristic unexplained X admin permissions and similarities with Musk’s voice and mannerisms.

On Wednesday, a 4chan consumer figuring out themself as Adrian Dittmann posted a screenshot of a post from Musk that displayed interface choices that counsel he’s not an atypical consumer. (4chan doesn’t use formal accounts, and also you’re mainly nameless, however customers can undertake distinctive identifiers that serve an identical goal, demonstrating the identical writer is behind a number of posts.) A navigation on the backside proper of the picture consists of hyperlinks for “change account,” “bans,” and “admin portal.” One other hyperlink to view the total publish engagements can be seen underneath the picture Musk revealed — one thing that’s solely seen to the consumer who created the publish. 

The posts from the consumer recognized as Adrian Dittmann, which had been made on 4chan’s far-right /pol/ board, have since been deleted. Whereas there’s nothing to substantiate that the 4Chan poster is similar “Dittmann” on X, the picture within the screenshot would have both been taken by Musk himself, or manipulated to falsely embody these admin permissions.

There’s presently no conclusive proof that confirms Musk behind the Dittmann account on X that regularly responds to his personal posts and defends his actions. It wouldn’t be the primary time that Musk has used a bizarre burner account, having beforehand roleplayed as one of his own children to check X posts. If he isn’t Dittmann, then there’s an actual Adrian Dittmann on the market praising Musk for being “an amazing father” who will get “lots of sex.”
