While Elon indulges in political theater and self-aggrandizing quips, Tesla is experiencing an unprecedented slump in both sales and stock value.
I love watching Nazis cry.
So… stop? You have more money than anyone could ever spend. Just fuck off already. Stop being so fucking evil.
How the fuck is this moron in the position that he is?
People with inherited wealth are treated like they are smart, capable, and credible when billionaire nepo babies are really the worst at everything except sucking and dying.
Its because, if you are handed inherited wealth and all the privilege in the world, there really isn’t an excuse to NOT be better than everyone. Yet… they never are. At least nobles back in the day actually tried to be better than everyone else. Nobles these days don’t even try.
how good they are at dying is TBD, but we should find out ASAP. you know, so we know how safe to keep them.
because virtue and ability are not what get you elevated in society.
we live with a kind of socially affected dualism, and there are three things that elevate you in society: validating the fantasy world, having money, and doing violence against reality on behalf of the fantasy.
some degree of the fantasy(/ies) is unavoidable; it’s necessary for communication and collaboration at scale, maybe even complex thoughts. we build out waaaaaay extra to enable and justify horrible things, alienate the fantasy ever farther from reality to justify toxic power structures and appease the crowds with ever wilder delusion, ever less justifiable as scientists engineers and some public intellectuals create new models that edge ever closer to how reality works.
musk is the ultimate beneficiary of all this nonsense. he lives in a parasitic fantasy world, one that leeches upon all of our minds. some more than others, because the distribution of resources are determined by the logic of that fantasy, rather than any reasoning based in, or at least nearby to, material reality.
How the fuck does he not know why Tesla is in the state that its in??
He hired people to do the work for him.
He’s not running the buisnesses he spends most of his time high on ketamine shitposting on twitter.
Nah, he’s definitely running them. Straight into the ground.
Go fash, lose cash!
I hope his panic attacks have panic attacks. I hope he goes to bed and never rises for fear of the mess he’s made. I hope he stumbles in his fear, and fucks with someone with little enough left to lose they do something about it.
Fuck you F’Elon Ballstink, if your dreams come true I will personally stowaway on a rocket to Mars after your death to shit on your grave.
Still worth billions but whining. Go sit in a corner, Nazi.
Still too big, but I appreciate the visual.

I hope he gets so sad he just ends it for us
I hope elon musk dies alone and unloved in tremendous pain. When he dies I will be throwing a party. Him and Trump.
And afraid. They should be full of fear, pain, and loneliness when they go into the dark.
I mean, this is how everyone goes so at least we got that going for us.
Unfortunately, this is how everyone goes.
Not me! Crispr will save me and I’ll live forever actually SORRY
While wearing uncomfortable underwear!
And wet socks!
And itchy buttholes!
And hangnails!
Cry more.
Stupid shit like this does more damage to conservative shitheads than any amount of “intellectual dismantling” of their ideology. This is their level of petty attacks on appearances, this is all they really know.
The left needs to get a lot stupider and a lot more superficial a lot faster if we hope to beat them.
The problem is, being petty is against lefty values. Take King Charles and his fat fingers. When lefty’s were making of him, there were probably a few fat fingered innocents out there with the same condition who felt self conscious. And that’s unfair. Making fun of appearances is untargeted and hurts those in the crossfire. But the problem is IT’S SO EFFECTIVE FOR OPTICS AND MORALE.
So either we give up that effective campaign for ethical reasons, or we just collectively let some people take the L for the advancement of leftist morale and publicity. It’s a doozy!

He wasn’t close to tears, he just needed time to think of something to say that won’t tank his wealth.
Yah everyone is reading way too much into this man, he’s just a mentally unwell incel who figured out how to get money from people. His emotional state is probably a mess but it doesn’t mean he’s about to cave in. He has more money than God and he isn’t going to crash out so easily.
Hot tip: it’s a LOT easier to secure huge amounts of funding than you think, it certainly doesn’t take intelligence, just good connections and a complete lack of self-awareness, I know from unfortunate experience that you can secure millions in financing simply by sounding sure of yourself and talking in ways that are too convoluted for everyone to understand… I have literally seen million-dollar checks handed over because everyone in the room didn’t want to feel stupid.
Maybe he was. Maybe Thiel had a conversation with him about drawing more of the wrong kind of attention.
Has he tried saying nothing? That would probably work.
Little lte for that now, yeah? It definitely would’ve worked if he started 10-15 years ago.
America doesn’t exist.
America has been a brand for the last century or so. A trademark, a copyright.
Nationalists are some of the dimmest people in the world. That said, we really need to take back our flag and our mottos and our dim, stupid, tribal traditions and markers, because most of the world is dim and primitive and despite hating it, we have to play the tribe game to survive. We can work on dissolving borders and all those lofty ideals quietly in the background, but we HAVE to not just squash fascism, we also have to manage the nation full of hateful idiots afterwards, and to do that, we have to appease their need to feel special and good because of where they were born.
There is a fine line you can walk to manage and maintain all of this while making real social progress, but we’re nowhere NEAR that line. We keep falling for the same tricks so we don’t unify into anything resembling a coalition for real progress.
