The @Steak-umm Twitter account has become one of the more notable brand Twitter accounts in a sea of meme-friendly brands on Twitter, thanks largely due to account-runner Nathan Allebach's ability to tweet like a normal person and not a corporate machine trying to be hip with the fellow kids. This includes routinely beefing (heh) with astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson, who has become one of the more disliked posters on Twitter due to his penchant for being extremely pedantic.

Their feud was reignited earlier this week when @Steak-umm took aim at Tyson's tweet reading, "The good thing about Science is that it’s true, whether or not you believe in it."


@Steak-umm didn't stop there, adding "by framing science itself as “true” he’s influencing people to be more skeptical of it in a time of unprecedented misinformation. science is an ever refining process to find truth, not a dogma. no matter his intent, this message isn’t helpful."



The bit exchanged electrified Twitter who enjoyed seeing the brand knock Tyson down a peg.


Not everyone was on board with Steak-umm's dunk though, as corporate accounts acting "just like people" still rubs many the wrong way.


Ever self-aware, Allebach (as @Steak-umm) reposted a thread about posting as a corporate entity under his Tyson tweets.
