Elon Musk SLAMS Microsoft Word's inclusiveness checker as it prompts him to reconsider using the word 'insane'


Even word processors aren't safe from Elon Musk's war on wokeness.

The X (formerly Twitter) CEO took to social media to slam Microsoft Word's inclusiveness checker.

Musk complained that he had been 'scolded' for using the word 'insane' in a document.

His supporters took to X to vent against the 'woke' work processor with some joking that it was Microsoft which had gone insane.

Another supporter wrote that 'wokeism has literally infiltrated everything on this planet'.

Musk's ire was drawn by a suggestion provided by Microsoft Word's inclusiveness spell check feature.

While trying to write that a vehicle, presumable the Cybertruck, has 'insane stability' Microsoft noted that 'this term implies mental health bias'.

In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Musk wrote: 'Microsoft World now scolds you if you use words that aren't "inclusive"!'

Musk's supporters joined the X CEO in an outpouring of rage against the program's interference.   'MS Word is going woke', wrote one angry commenter.  'They really putting the Soft in Microsoft', joked another.

Meanwhile, one commenter poked fun at the suggestion, writing: 'That's insane'.
