There's no switch to turn on or off when it comes to supporting a football club, but this would be a very hard sell

Yeah, it's one of those where I'd probably stop watching games and going to them but I'd still check out for the results until they were gone.

I agree with that take. You can't stop being a supporter in my opinion. But certainly you can be very conflicted and even wanting to lose hard so would resell it

What a sad pathetic existence. All that money to enjoy and do good things and this is his life. At least he's obviously leading a miserable life, it's the only consolation we have.

Imagine having literally billions and not giving most of it away? I think that might just make you evil by default.

So I've just had an email from tesla offering me a Model 3 long range for £249 a month.

Thats the cheapest I've ever seen, so I think the fall in sales is hurting them.

Why would he hold his net wealth in cash? Isn't his wealth tied into his companies shares?
He's donated over 5 billion worth of shares into his own charitable foundation, so he's giving some of it away. Wouldn't be logical to give away most of his companies!
Who knows if/when he'll cash out like others and starts to give cash away?

He does seem like the type.

I woud revisit case by case these "donations"

Example



Billionaires are evil by definition

 

[maniak]

He does seem like the type.

He didn't say who was getting the donations. Maybe nazi parties all around the world.

Elon Musk’s DOGE Deletes Dozens of Claims of Cost-Cutting After Investigation Reveals They Are False​

Elon Musk’s so-called Department of Government Efficiency deleted over 30 different government contracts from its website’s “Wall of Receipts” this week after a New York Times investigation found them to still be active.


The Times’s David A. Fahrenthold and Jeremy Singer-Vine reported last week on what they called “DOGE’s Zombie Contracts” – federal spending Musk’s team had claimed had been “terminated,” but in reality continued under various federal agencies. In the report, the Times found 44 contracts that DOGE had claimed to end, but were still active. By Tuesday, 31 of those contracts had been removed from DOGE’s “Wall of Receipts.” The 44 contracts accounted for some $220 million of federal spending Musk’s team claimed it had saved, while the 31 amounted to $122 million.

This is exactly the reason I call MAGA politics an "Alternate Reality Game". The fascistic, authoritarian ideology of MAGA have created an entirely fictional world in their minds. From that, they go out into the real world looking for clues of conspiracies to confirm their ideology and actions. They point to shadowy figures, corruption in government by "cabals", which then plays out like an ARG. Then reality comes to the front and it's nothing but cutting vital programs for no reason, so they can implement their agenda. The "ARG" gives legitimacy to their action in the minds of, unfortunately, too many people.
