Musk is exactly the asshole many people figured him out to be. Such a gigantic man-baby.
Maybe his politics are complicated. Did y’all consider that? That a white South African industrialist who dabbles in eugenics, treats employees like shit, and thinks catturd2 is funny might be a complex enigma?
And he’s the multibillionaire that actually wants to put microchips into people’s heads unlike Bill Gates who’s checks notes actually trying to cure malaria? (He’s probably still not a saint though, every billionaire is part of the problem.)
Bill Gates has strong enough ties to Epstein that his wife divorced him and left their charitable foundation they started together. So idk man, he’s not so great either
Yeah, that’s what I said. But Musk is literally doing supervillian shit while Gates seems to be at least trying to do some good to outweigh the bad. Still, billionaires are a cancer to a planet. I just find it ironic that Gates has become this demonic figure for something he never did and what Musk is literally trying to do with no one batting an eye.
Gates is a demon for fucking over the public education system. It’s not eugenics level bad, but definitely a level somewhere in Dante’s inferno.
What did he do to public education?
Lots, like the trend to make micro schools inside larger schools. So instead of hiring more teachers to drive down class sizes, you do the opposite and hire more admins. https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2014/10/the-plot-against-public-education-111630/
Did you consider that you might not have the deep insight of a guy in a k-hole who spent 44 billion dollars to run a successful social media company into the ground?
Hey that was most likely a deliberate attack against journalism around the world so give him some credit
https://www.nationalreview.com/2023/09/tweet-and-be-killed-c/
The Saudis backing him knowing he’d fuck twitter up was almost definitely deliberate. Musk himself fucking it up was likely just his ego and idiocy and not actually deliberate on his part
Idk man, he was pretty pissed about that Jet Tracker. I think he also felt like he could better pump Tesla stock with whatever dregs were left of Twitter
I get that, but the reason I think its incompetence is because he has a pretty fragile ego and the way he destroyed twitter makes him look INCREDIBLY stupid
It’s spelled ‘enema’
It’s so mysteriass
Send this fucker to Orania along with all his supporters and enablers and burn the goddamn whole town to the ground. The world and South Africans would cheer.
“It’s complicated”. Nah, not really. An egomaniac, rich asshole took refuge in the right wing safe space because they kiss his ass and call him a genius. But they still won’t buy his electric cars.
Whatever could be the politics of the tech billionaire son of a South African apartheid blood-emerald baron?
I wonder
Putting this guy’s shitty politics aside for a moment, Trump and the GOP have be shitting on EVs extra hard over the past year. Tesla is hurting right now, and if Trump wins the dead heat, that company could be fucked. Moreover, he also has a bunch of government contracts keeping Space X and Starlink alive.
If Musk doesn’t pay up and kiss the ring, he could be screwed if Trump wins.
Elon will be fine with his massive bonus that he totally earned for all the great work he’s done for Tesla.
You missed the /s in your comment.
My use of “totally” is an alternate convention for the same thing.
Greed gonna greed. He wants more.
Elon doesn’t care if Tesla succeeds, he’s just using it as a way to launder financial gifts from other billionaires/millionaires and using poor people to help subsidize.
Eg if his friend, MBS from Saudi Arabia, has 2-5 people with trading algorithms and a few million dollars, they can inflate the stock. This makes it look appealing to regular buyers who think the stock is actually organically reaching that price. Then they invest more, increasing the price, and MBS can start to withdraw some of his money out, but Elon will still have that funding/money from the real investors. If the stock starts to deflate, they can just pump it again.
At some point, the stock will correct. Either when Elon stops convincing rich people (eg MBS) he can deliver on his promises, or when it becomes clear to the public it was a grift the whole time. I think Elon assumes it will be soon, which is why he took out so much recently (like 40 billion, right?) and risked removal from the company.
It’s entirely possible Elon is worried about crimes he’s committed and supports Trump explicitly for a pardon (which we know Trump is selling).
Fuck Elon Musk
Fascists helping fascists. How quaint.
apartheid baby bitch shocking the world yet again
The world will be much better off without these pieces of cum-flavored shit on the planet. I hope to see the day.
Conservatives own at least 2 media companies (X, Truth Social), Trump got reinstated with Meta… Imagine doing all this for a man who raped a 12 year old
I was going to start listing other examples, like Rupert Murdoch and Sinclair broadcasting, but in reality billionaire conservatives own and operate all major legacy media outlets at this point. That includes CNN and NYT.
Yes, and the conspiracy theory that ties Ghilisaine Maxwell to Reddit as well
I just dove back into that rabbit hole. Looks like it was never really debunked and the user is still inactive 4 years later.
Yeah, pretty wild stuff…!!
No one should be surprised that Pedo Guy is supporting a pedophile.
I am Jack’s complete lack of surprise.
I am Jack’s raging bile duct.
So that’s why he needed those premiums from Tesla.
Wasn’t trump against musk?
Musk already was on 2 advisory boards in 2017, which he left over trumps decision to pull out of the paris climate agreement.
And a grifter like Trump never has any issues with taking money, no matter where it comes from.
True, money is money, no matter how its given to these people
Maybe…Dick to dick at Epstein’s?
New headline: Asshole shits on everything
Unwashed deviant asshole who Putin holds kompromat over forced to help another pedophile, who Putin also holds kompromat over.
Both met with Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell…
Don’t forget about Elon’s significant financial ties to Saudi Arabia
https://www.axios.com/2022/11/01/elon-musk-twitter-saudi-arabia
“The Saudis could have cashed out, like most everyone else. That would have been the financially sound thing to do. Instead, they allied with Musk … There’s a clear political motivation to their decision, and CFIUS should get to the bottom of it.”
A source familiar with the situation adds that Murphy’s concern is exacerbated by the large amount of debt that Musk/Twitter now must service, and what demands that may enable Saudi to make. Particularly given that Musk, at least for the moment, is Twitter’s sole director.
Murphy on Monday asked the Committee on Foreign Investment in the U.S. (CFIUS) to investigate “potential national security concerns” arising from Saudi Arabia and Qatar’s involvement in Elon Musk’s takeover of Twitter.
Saudi Arabia and members of its extended royal family are regular investors in U.S. tech companies, both directly and via private equity and venture capital funds. But they’ve been largely ignored by CFIUS, which investigated just six Saudi-involved deals between 2019 and 2021. CFIUS is empowered to recommend to the President that mergers be blocked on national security grounds, including for transactions that have already closed. Many of its recent recommendations to that effect have involved China.
https://fortune.com/2023/01/23/elon-musk-says-he-had-saudi-backing-tesla-trial-testimony/
Elon Musk returned to federal court Monday in San Francisco, testifying that he believed he had locked up financial backing to take Tesla private during 2018 meetings with representatives from Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund
Fuckheads of a feather…
Of course he did.
Musk just substituted “free speech absolutist” for “billionaire absolutist”…a world where nothing stands in his way.
In a Citizens United world, there is no difference. Money is the only speech.
Well Trump said he’d cut taxes for the rich if they helped him get re-elected. Honestly surprised it took Musk this long to donate to him, especially with talk of Trump making making Secretary of Transportation.
