The 'Elon Musk's Assassination Coordinates' meme stems from a December 2022 event where Elon Musk banned the @ElonJet account and several journalists, alleging they were posting his 'assassination coordinates' by sharing his real-time flight data. The internet quickly latched onto the phrase, finding the terminology hyperbolic and melodramatic. It evolved into a template where users label mundane or absurd locations—like a local grocery store or a fictional video game map—as the dreaded coordinates. The meme serves as a satirical commentary on high-stakes social media moderation and Musk's public persona, often used to mock overblown security concerns or simply to highlight bizarre locations.
