I really wish there was a way to tell him to go back where he came from that wouldn’t make other immigrants uncomfortable. I’d gladly trade him for a hundred refugees.
How are people still not able to tell the difference between Jews and Zionists?
We just had the “Guys not all Russians are evil, just their government” phase. By now you’d hope we could stop putting people in the wrong categorisation box
I don’t think it helps Musk to have the news be “Elon is a white supremacist and antisemite”. Any news is not necessarily good news. In this case, it’s fitting to upvote and spread so everyone knows it.
When a company or person are household names, bad press is bad press. The idea that bad press is good press only applies if people wouldn’t otherwise know about them. If all press was good press, then companies wouldn’t spend huge amounts of money getting good press and burying bad press.
Musk and X would love it if these kinds of stories flew under the radar.
Agreed. And let me clarify- I do not mean to say (and I say this as a Jew myself) that Jews do not have all of the inherent privileges that come with whiteness. We absolutely do. I’m just talking about right-wing bigots. There are certain people who only consider me white when they need me to be on their side about something.
If you look at George Lincoln Rockwell’s activities during the civil rights movement, you’ll see how a lot of ‘whiteness’ was just racist consolidation.
Italians, Irish, Slavs, all got brought in because the racists needed a boost to their numbers to keep black people down.
What’s this we crap? He’s always been a nepo baby who head hunts industry talent and then utterly destroys their work with demands that no sane person with common sense would ask for.
I believed he was smart and innovative when I first heard of him. But then he opened his mouth and I called him for what he was way back then.
I thought most people finally started to see him for what he is back when that Thai soccer team were trapped in the cave, and Musk was throwing one of his first public temper tantrums. He called that one innocent person assisting with the rescue a pedophile because they criticized Musk’s preposterous idea to invent a mini sub to rescue them.
He is a racist, bigoted, petulant man-child. Oh, and definitely a whiney little bitch.
I believed he was smart and innovative when I first heard of him.
Same here.
Dude is named Elon Musk and that is his actual head. The world is not a kind place to people with those attributes and absolutely none of that is his fault. I was predisposed to like him until I realized he was that guy.
The guy who talks out his ass while trying to make science jokes. Fractals. Dark matter. Mitochondria. Dihydrogen monoxide. Borg nanoprobes. He's simply educated just barely enough to know some terms to throw around.
He's the guy who slaps his pencil down onto his desk 10 minutes into the exam because it was so easy, he's done, and everyone else in the class needs to know it. <cracks neck> Of course there was a long form question on the back of the paper that he didn't solve because he didn't listen to or read the instructions, or even think to flip over the paper. That's actually hilarious when you realize that this is that guy's MO. He never learns from mistakes like this. He can't. The test was unfair. He solved those first two answers so fast he should get extra credit. The professor is a vampire who is against him because he solves her exams too quickly. Dihydrogen monoxide!
I'm so sick of that guy.
The cave incident finally made most people realize that a) this guy has no idea of what a cave is, b) in a situation where children's' lives are in danger he needs to make it all about himself (and let the children die while they wait for a sub that won't work), and c) where someone in a capacity to actually help in the rescue points out that the Sub Idea is incredibly stupid and that they shouldn't wait for the sub that will immediately jam up the best route into the cave, he'll lose his shit.
But mainly - dude has no idea of what a cave is. Narcissists are a dime a dozen, but most "visionaries" should have some inkling of how caves work.
Sure, he’s a racist man baby that never advanced his humor past 4chan and thinks safety is for losers, but he’s not all bad. He destroyed twitter after all
I’ve never even seen truth social before. I know it was trumpite central but the only thing I’d heard was some devs trolling the trump team by requesting the source code repeatedly. The rest was just trump mouthpiece schlock.
He was born a rich white boy in full apartheid South Africa, and has never been seriously confronted on any of his beliefs. Why do you think he would change?
That’s what’s so hilarious about a lot of this. He’s complaining he can’t celebrate his cultural heritage… And everyone knows he’s from South Africa. It’s such a transparent dog whistle.
