Ice Cube and Elon Musk brought back the 90s Diss era in a modern way on Twitter! In a recent Twitter (or should we say X) . The meme diss began when Musk posted a silly meme poking fun at Ice Cube, which the rapper quickly countered with his own meme, taking a dig at Musk and the current state of X. We are ROFLMAO. rolling on the floor laughing my ass off with this and we have the diss memes for you :

Musk's initial meme featured a split image with the caption, "Remember Ice Cube? This is him now, feel old yet?" On the left was a picture of Ice Cube, and on the right, was a glass of water. Interestingly, this meme has been circulating on the internet since at least 2014.

Ice Cube wasted no time in responding to Musk's playful jab. He quote-responded Musk's meme and shared his own creation, captioned, "Remember X? This is it now, feel stupid yet?"
His meme juxtaposed the old Twitter logo with an image of a dumpster fire, a clever commentary on the perceived decline of X since Musk took the reins. This meme battle coincided with changes made by X, such as moving the location of quote messages into a sub-menu, making it slightly more challenging for users to engage with Musk's posts.
Hope @elonmusk can also ask the #CCP to open @X to its people. Perhaps he thinks banning it is a good policy, like turning off @Starlink to thwart #Ukraine’s counterstrike against #Russia. Listen up, #Taiwan is not part of the #PRC & certainly not for sale! JW https://t.co/HEhyTYYXFp

Musk's Taiwan comments land him in trouble: Musk, who is also the owner of Tesla and Starlink Sattelite, got into a much bigger feud this week after the billionaire asserted that Taiwan was an integral part of China during his virtual participation in the All-in Summit in Los Angeles.
