Is that Musk's first time holding a gun? What a bunch of bizarre decisions. Bipod and monopod down. No sights. Hip firing a sniper rifle. Wrist angle is really bad for a .50.
Dude is such a moron.

The Barrett isn’t really meant to be a serious gun for consumers. It’s a gun you rent while closing your eyes to swipe your credit card, then do stupid shit like hip firing or dual wielding.
It's like one of those crazy expensive ultralight racing bikes: it makes a difference for pros and a few very good amateurs, but the vast majority of people who own one have it purely as a status symbol.
I'll have you know the 8000 eurodollars I spent to shave 200g more off my bike is very much important to my sunday morning rides
eurodollars
Preem ride choom
Even then, the barret isn't even that good if your goal is distance. Gotta go with that sweet sweet .338 Lapua or .408 Cheytac. If he's gonna larp he may as well do it right
What a great firing position to give yourself tendonitis with. It's not even like it's a minigun where that position would be cool.
Right? So damn weird. Could he just not hold the weight of the gun in the correct posture?
This just looks stupid. But even still, his simps cheer.
IIRC he did it because someone said on Twitter that hip firing a Barrett doesn't make sense, and Musk went 
"Oh yeah, but what if you're hecking epic like me tho?".
Still makes no sense, of course.
Hip firing a sniper rifle.
Because its Epic, bro!
I wonder what percentage of his fans are actually impressed and aroused by a divorced man whose kids disown him and who can’t bother to hire a stylist despite having the money
And what percentage are just sucking dick so Elon can signal boost their accounts and products
Like Elon is a stupid man’s idea of a genius, and a 5th grader’s idea of what being an epic adult is about
Feels like this could also be said about Cheeto Benito
unlike musk he seems to actually do patronage tho? like musk isn't even doing Thiel-level patronage afaik
Hell it's practically every middle-aged+ conservative grifter
and who can’t bother to hire a stylist despite having the money
this ish of courshe the tragedy of musk, [sniff], that he ish dressed like someone who, eh, would go into berghain but aha! he is refused in the berghain, and sho on, and sho on 
Not to be that guy but I think it's important to recognize twitter implying Malaysia executes ideological traitors seems to come from a place of xenophobic/Islamophobic/orientalist misinformation
Like the IMC memes are funny, but Malaysia hasn't executed a single person since 2017, and before that only executed a handful of people for extreme stuff like murder. People talking out their ass like there must be "Sharia Law firing squads" or "public hangings" for political dissidents, meanwhile they've de facto suspended the death penalty since 2018, making them more progressive on capital punishment than the US
Yeah this is the whole "North Korean official executed by mortar round!" bullshit just for a different Asian country. Apparently Asians are just barbaric and uncivilized and can't execute people in the civilized way - a lethal injection that lasts hours.
Love when non shooters pretend to shoot guns. Give off the kid rock shooting bud cans vibes. You're not hip firing a 50 cal Barrett.
Probably out of place, but why is that dork wearing hearing protection? What is he, some kind of Democrat? I thought he hated PPE!
