but can they go lower?
Good, now do the world a favor and go die in a hole.
Sorry dude. Empathy is a weakness and all.
has anyone seen my violin? it’s very tiny
Good.
This nazi fuck should never feel any peace again.
Musk insisted on the earnings call that protest against him are “very organized” and “paid for,” repeating suggestions he’s made previously about shadowy financiers who are supposedly funding demonstrations. Musk also said the “real reason” there are protests against him is that people who are receiving fraudulent money from government agencies that are now getting cut. Musk has never provided any evidence for this assertion.
What a delusional dipshit. He has lost touch with reality. His ego is so fragile he has to make up fairy tales. Poor wittuh snowfwake
Funny that a guy who buys elections would suddenly be upset at the thought of other people being paid to make political statements.
He’s wrong as shit, of course. People genuinely hate that useless sack of shit.
But it is funny.
It’s projection. He’s doing political shit for money, so he assumes everyone else is too.
Until recently, it was a huge crime to make an unprovable statement in any way, shape, or form in an earnings call. Even rich people were scared to break that rule. I miss when we had laws.
Last I checked he was the richest person on the planet. Couldn’t he just pay the protestors more than what they are paid now to make them stop protesting?
Gonna end up like Howard Hughes.
Gee I hope not. I want to see the corpse.
I would be happy if the corpse burned up in the wreckage of one of his muskrockets hitting Mar-a-Lago.
I don’t think they make violins small enough to signify my empathy for him.
Let’s seal the coffin for Tesla. If it is profitable again, it will fuel fascism again. This brand need to go bankrupt.
I celebrate the news.
The company produced 362,000 vehicles and delivered over 336,000.
That’s a surprisingly high number. Too many fascists these days.
He does the Nazi salute on the big stage and it shocked when he gets a collective middle finger salute back.
On the other hand, he went with Trump. Everybody going that way gets burned, used up, and thrown away. That things wouldn’t work out was expected. It’s also suspected that Musk would be used as the wrecking ball to crush institutions and when the inevitable problems arise, Musk would be blamed and tossed aside to keep the rest of the regime in the clear.

To be fair - people haven’t given a shit in years about the nasty stuff companies and their owners do. He probably just expected it to continue that way.
Most CEOs do try to stay out of the spotlight. Those that are more in the spotlight at least try to do some positive PR and not rock the boat too much. Security through obscurity if you will.
Of course Musk and Zuckerberg are some of the few that dance with the devil in the spotlight and have made their company/ies their whole personality. They paint their faces larger than life on the company and then act surprised when people take it personally.
he chose to align with the most reprehensible group of people.
I’m pretty sure Peter Theil fucked him over AGAIN. Thiel himself has been successfully lurking in the shadows to do evil shit and get what he wants, while Musk (although certainly far from innocent) has become the perfect scapegoat.
For months Musk was this untouchable god that couldn’t be removed from Trump’s office. They got Elon to handle all the dirty work, attach his face and name to some truly despicable shit, made him the most hated man in the country, then gradually made him look like an annoying nuisance who was disrespected by all the “adults in the white house,” and got everyone to start questioning if his mental health was spiraling, and now that Theil’s protege is handling technology and AI policy they no longer need Elon to
leave his fingerprints on everythingdo anything.I’m sure that there was maneuvering for influence, but he’s a grown, competent adult. Most of his wealth is associated with a company that has made its products an identity symbol for progressives. It should not be that hard to see that becoming a colossally-important financial supporter of, very-visibly palling around with, and performing some of the more-unpopular actions for the extraordinarily-unpopular-with-progressives Trump was going to piss people off. Having Trump do a sales pitch for said products on the White House lawn is just icing on the cake.
He was not trapped in that situation. Hell, even if he wanted to make huge donations, lots of wealthy people donate money to presidential campaigns — albeit not normally at the level that Musk did — and they don’t normally engage in the kind of incredibly-visible association that Musk did. He could have walked away. He could have even just asked Trump to appoint someone who he agreed with in the role, rather than taking it himself.
And this isn’t Musk’s first high-profile brand management screw-up. With Twitter, he was roundly criticized for the rebrand to X, given that Twitter had a very-well-established, valuable brand. Like, after the first time around, you’d think that he could reasonably have someone sanity-checking some of this for impact on brand.
I don’t expect Musk to be mistake-free, but I really think that if you placed most business leaders in his shoes, they’d have had an inkling that this was quite likely to be trouble.
I am not trying to defend Musk, just pointing out that even if he steps back from the White House it definitely doesn’t mean we’ve seen the exit of the final boss.
Yeah “blood boy” Thiel and Palantir and the like are the “deep state” the right witch hunted for so long. Pretty sure https://westworld.fandom.com/wiki/Engerraund_Serac is partially based on him with the “I’ll control the future of the human race and swim through the blood to get to the ending I think is best because I’m rich”
thiels obsession with using palintir as a spying tool is a thing for him for like 10 years already, funny it was around the same time he brought down gawker, through the hot-dog skin maniac, hogan. i read somewhere the only reason he targeted gawker, was them reporting on his business pratices, and not because of the gay thing.
So follow your nazi-rolemodel’s example and self-administer some antidepressants.
Piece of shit.
Oh no!
Anyway.
Pay a settlement of $10 million to each and every federal employee fired by DOGE. Then we can start to talk about your well-being, Elon.
Okay but how about compensation for all those people he’s fucked over by dismantling federal programs? I want this guy to be standing by a freeway on-ramp wearing a barrel and begging in vain for spare change, before dejectedly walking up said on-ramp to lie down in front of an oncoming cement truck.
