As rumors of a Coachella 2020 postponement continue to swirl amid concerns of the COVID-19 outbreak, tech impresario and coronavirus denier Elon Musk took to Twitter to bash the festival for a sustained period of what he called "sucking."

Just as it looked like Musk was going to drag the festival through the mud uncontested, Coachella's Twitter shut him down with a photo and a simple "lol."

The photo is from Jaden Smith's Coachella set last year, where he had a Tesla Model X suspended in the air with its Falcon Wing Doors up.

Musk, a co-founder of Tesla, couldn't help but acknowledge their strong comeback.

In the middle of all of this was Jaden, who tried to extend an olive branch of love for both parties.

If there's one good thing to come out of coronavirus, this brief but entertaining Twitter feud is it.
