Elon Musk: Officially a fraud and piece of shit. Official or unofficial war criminal?

He really has gone all in on cosplaying some mixture of Howard Hughes and Henry Ford.

Dude had a threesome with Amber Heard and Cara Delavigne….and instead of focusing on more of that, he’s dedicating every waking moment (and hardly sleeping) to getting pathetic incel edgelords to worship him.
That fact alone tells you he may be the biggest fucking idiot this world has ever seen.

I'm not so sure about that anymore.  He may have the money, but he sure as fuck does not have the mentality.

Aric Toler (with Bellingcat) is now doubling down on it being him with the SS and Swastika tattoos. it got nuked from some places, but Toler knows his shit and is well known in OSINT community. here is where he put the info all in 1 place:

Let’s hope his finding out stage is even less enjoyable for him than Alex Jones’ was.

Alex isn't on the hook for tens of billions of dollars for InfoWars regardless of lawsuits, and Elon won't be able to find enough gold coin, prepper supplies, and male vitamin supplement companies to advertise on twitter to keep twitter financially viable, so Elon's finding out stage is going to be more fun to watch. 

Hell, we may already be in it, since the advertisers I see are a far cry from the ones I saw a year ago.  And Tesla stock holders will probably be dragged along with Elon during his finding out stage, as he will probably have to sell a lot of stock over the coming years.

But it throws in a new twist - if Musk is going to fully embrace the InfoWars/Qanon path and start pushing dumbshit conspiracy theories, that could open him up to lawsuits.  Which will make his ownership of twitter even more expensive than it already is.

Oh, and being Surly, including the non-UT fans, if any of us had Elon's money, I have a feeling that we'd have pilots/aircraft, and banner-making companies on retainer. 

With that kind of money, when wouldn't we be flying a banner somewhere?

Yeah if I wanted to troll my adversaries it would be a helluva lot more fun than what he's doing and I think can manage to keep the advertisers happy too.

Even before the Greg Davis is not our standard stuff, I worked at a tech company here in Austin, and a major executive from New York was coming to visit, and some of the employees were in a union and were pissed about something (benefits or retirement), and had a banner flying during his visit.  Ever since then, I've had a very favorable view on airplane banners.

[Francisco 2.0 32391]

It's not everyday that you see the CEO of an auto company publicly questioning if someone is a [checks notes] white supremacist or not.

I mean, in an ordinary world, you would see stock prices nosedive, a board take action, shareholders revolting, so forth.

At this point, if you still have a Twitter account and visit the site you just might want to hold off on the Elon criticism. You're part of the problem and I feel like I'm taking crazy pills watching some of you breathlessly describe Twitter as a right-wing, violent, racist, and anti-Semitic breeding ground, while casually logging on every morning to see some memes.

I'm not saying you have to do anything. If your favorite local bar became a daily hangout for neo-Nazis and the bartender started hanging anti-Semitic and racist imagery on the walls, then yeah, I'm going to judge you if you keep giving them your business.

How much longer will news creators keep using Twitter with elmo going all in on the press as the "enemy of the people" stuff? I doubt many will publicly announce like NPR and just stop. Same with advertisers. I doubt any of the big brands will announce that they are not paying for twitter ads anymore and just stop. Promoting lies about white supremacy and mass shootings has to be heading to the end of any justification to keep advertising, right? I also like the realtime news and information from reputable sources on twitter. I hope mastadon or the other one take off soon and put elmo out of business.

The second best part of r/teslamotors bagging on elno's sfd feature is reading them finding out in real time that the 10k or 15k they paid for fsd is worth zero for insurance, trade-in or resale purposes.

i don't understand how FSD isn't a license to the driver/owner - that's how they are handling it when you sell your car, they are/were stripping out FSD for a while I thought.

Everything about that truck is designed poorly. I bet Elon specifically asked for a gun rack, got internal pushback and told his team to tell everyone it’s for shovels. Then he giggled to himself about how clever he is. I mean that seems more probable than intentionally designing a place to mount your shovel

this is amongst the least secret summits in the history of the planet.

want to know why the election officials from Maricopa County are there?

what about Arizona?

what about Georgia?

i counted ten different sec of states for day 1 of the event. there are a handful there on day 2's agenda.

the design of the truck is going to be really bad based on what i've read about the body panels alone. add in their well known horrible alignment issues with current body part issues and you are going to have some truly funny pics hitting twitter on day 1 of them actually selling the truck.
