Social media was quick to jump on the meme fodder, with many instantly roasting the 50-year-old Tesla CEO for getting a haircut that’s a bit out of date even for Gen Z TikTok influencers. 

The world's richest man was compared to super villians in his swirly mohawk haircut with the first immediate reference to Zorg from the fifth element. From reel like to real life  the next step took roasters to North Korea pointing out similarities between the Musk and North Korean dictator Kim Jong-Un. 

Even news outlets took a jab at the cut. Making a joke at a recent SEC investigation on Tesla, a satirical news reports said " SEC is looking into the “blatant abuse” of normal haircut etiquette and which laws Musk has broke with his haircut."
