I understand the sentiment. But let's ask another question. Why is Tesla's stock value so extremely high in the first place?
Elon Musk | Owner of X
- Thread starter Pogue Mahone
- Start date
Because it's a bubble no one wants to burst
Apartheid supporting twat.
$200.000.000.000 (Musks fortune) / $387.600 (average price of a home in the US) = 515.996 homes? Is this right? there's no way one person can have that much wealth right?
Yet again I feel compelled to share this visualisation. Prepare to get carpal tunnel syndrome.
Wealth taxes. Fact that in the UK rich people pay lot less tax on their significant passive income compared to people who work their asses off should be the no1 issue. Yet those suffer the most refuse to even acknowledge it.
that's sickening
Billionaires shouldn't exist!
In what way? I thought most tax loopholes were to do with a business registered elsewhere - im still unsure how they liquidise there wealth with little tax though?
Just casually amplifying a far-right troll and spreading Nazi propaganda.
Interestingly enough, Musk never comes up as a subject of discussion at work. Never do I hear a colleague saying "guys, did you know Elon Musk has descended into far right ideology?". The guy with the biggest net worth in the world is casually saying extreme stuff on Twitter and it's not even noteworthy to them. Meanwhile, they're just buying Tesla's.Just casually amplifying a far-right troll and spreading Nazi propaganda.
He's come up once or twice at work, but also I have one co-worker who really likes him. He also really likes Trump. He's an Egyptian immigrant to Norway, so I can only assume he's been caught up in the online culture war because there's no other reason why he'd be into those ghouls. He's a very nice guy in any case, we just avoid talking about it.

all the replies too. twitter is totally useless for most new users who don't have a niche they want to dive into.

Those replies are far preferable to the usual non-bot replies. It's hard to overstate just how much Twitter has been taken over by the far-right, white supremacy, anti-vax conspiracy types. The top 50 replies to almost any tweet would have been the worst thing anyone's ever posted in the Caf. I'd prefer Twitter to become completely unusable due to bots than actively harmful like it is now.
Jack has apparently started using a butterfly as his logo. All that's missing now is him buying the Twitter name from Elon.
This is fecking bonkers.Just casually amplifying a far-right troll and spreading Nazi propaganda.
Surely on a K binge at the time ?
Woah, don't be blaming the K for this wanker's behaviour.
He's had issues in the past, so was curious if his drug use would factor into it. I remember the days when he was just an eccentric entrepreneur.
I was never taken with him like some where, but I wonder when the true heel turn came. Obviously the "calling a diver a pedo because he said your submarine won't save the children stuck in a cave" situation was a big one. Were there any clear ones before then?
I think it was around the Thai cave story period. He made an ass out of himself attempting to save the kids. Then months later the pandemic hit and Tesla's stock began a meteoric rise in valuation. I think becoming the richest in the world inflated his ego and savior complex, which when combined with his drug use and bizarre personal life, set the stage for the ensuring silliness of the past few years.
For me it was definitely the pedo comment. I genuinely don't recall any weird antics from him before that. At that time, Musk's profile was big but not that big if I remember 2018 right. So it was really weird seeing this billionaire call the rescue diver a pedo.

Ron DeSantis picked a fight with Disney, hope Musk has a similar experience.
Same for me
I think the pedo thing is definitely the event that kickstarted his descent to the terrible person he is now. He made a fool of himself on Twitter and ended up buying the company like a kid running home with the football after being nutmegged.
He is just picking at Disney because of the advertising losses. Will definitely lose but it is also embarrassingly frivolous.
Man children who are used to getting their own way from rich mummy and daddy and some people dare to speak up against them. Will no one think of Junior's feelings? Seems to be the common thread with all those assholes.
He was just better at PR before, the guy has always been a wanker.
Excellent.

Can't he just die already?

Just two cool dudes. At least Elon Musk isn't only pretending to live in America, though he realistically is pretending to be American.
I think Ian Miles Cheong might be the most pathetic human being who has ever existed.
That is an understatement. He's definitely the worst that incels have to offer.
Just don't know what's wrong with Cheong's face. Is it a palsy of sorts?
