Elon Musk Grills Microsoft Over Blizzardâs Post-Kirk Drama
On September 12, 2025, Elon Musk decided to play tech detective by tagging Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella to investigate Blizzard employees criticizing the recently deceased Charlie Kirk. Muskâs X thread controversy included screenshots and employee names, with former Blizzard dev Mark Kern (aka 'Grummz') fueling the fire by accusing staff of 'trashing' Kirk. Meanwhile, Rep. Clay Higgins threatened a Congressional ban on anyone mocking Kirkâs assassinationâa statement that somehow made this Kafkaesque tech feud even zanier. Microsoft delicately responded that celebrating violence is against their values, even though the screenshots Musk shared had zero violent celebrations. Nadellaâs public silence? The hottest cliffhanger since Windows updates.

Musk dragging Nadella into Blizzardâs employee drama is the crossover episode no one asked for. Itâs like Iron Man showing up at a Serf Festival to lecture peasants on etiquette.
Blizzard employees criticized Kirk, Musk freaks out, and Congress chimes in with free speech controlsâsounds like the plot of a badly written superhero movie where the villain is bad PR.
