Elon Musk is "living it up" after stepping down as the CEO of Twitter. The Neuralink co-founder was spotted "partying the night away" at a trance music festival in Mexico earlier this month. Surrounded by fellow ravers at dance group Rüfüs Du Sol’s Sundream Baja music festival, the Tesla founder and EDM lover "danced like nobody is watching." However, netizens found Musk's dance moves "awkwardly painful" and "cringe-worthy."

Videos of the rave music party have gone viral since. Musk is seen dressed in an all-black ensemble as he sways to the house number. He can also be seen mingling with the crowd, throwing his hands up and grooving to the beats, and at one point making a "heart symbol" as he enjoys the adrenaline rush and the "techno" ambiance.

According to Page Six, people were quick to criticize his fun moves on Twitter. "WTF ??? He’s dancing like he’s in pain,” one viewer commented. "Ew. Cringe worthy,” a second Twitter user said. "Oh that is pitiful!” a third person tweeted. “What a frigging dork.” wrote another user on the micro-blogging site. Many commenters took the opportunity to crack jokes at Musk's expense. "Oh dear. Having high school flashbacks. Not the good kind,” one follower joked. "Don’t think Dancing With the Stars will be calling anytime soon,” another Twitter user commented.

1. See what an 80 hour work week and 5-6 hours of sleep per night does to a body?

Or so he claims.......

2. He's just haggard, isn't he? Poor guy! He's working himself to death. He should learn to relax.

3. Ha-Ha!

... maybe someone can put him with Trump in a clip? Or put him with Tucker? When I saw the clips of Tucker dancing, I thought we should clarity what pronouns he uses.

4. Did he harsh everybody else's high at that club? The music was alright, but Elon was in a bubble.

7. Just your average white guy moves

Not particularly bad based on the low bar standard above. Not good of course, but have you seen many white guys dancing lately? Not a thing to emulate. If you want an example of toxic masculinity inhibiting free and natural expression look no further than white guys on the dance floor.

BTW, I know this is a generalization. Some guys white guys can get down on the dance floor, but I suspect that by and large their movement is more stilted than the population at large.
