Someone tell the Republicans we found the immigrant interfering with the election.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 6 months ago

The? Rupert Murdoch has been ~~running a huge propaganda network~~ playing 'defense' for republicans for decades.

An AFRICAN immigrant.

Yeeah, a lot of these "not really news" lately.. but it's good that they're talked about at least.

Someone please tell me that if we stop Trump, Musk shouts NO IT WASN'T SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN THIS WAY! and then spontaneously, melts, or shatters like glass, or gets swallowed up by a chasm, or eaten by hyenas.

And then every cybertruck, every tesla, every Spacex capsule and every Starlink satellite simultaneously turns into magic dust before evaporating into nothing.

Almost 100% onboard. The exception is SpaceX.

Obviously I don't know the exact specifics of how they're successful and I don't care.

Leave SpaceX out as the "black sheep", even though they should be the "golden child".

I wish SpaceX continued success and a future of good luck.

SpaceX deserves a CEO who isn't a complete disaster and enemy of the state.

It has Gwynne Shotwell, and she generally does quite well at managing Musk's impact.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 months ago

Indeed. She must be keeping very busy. I haven't read much about her in a while (since she publicly defended him from sex scandals).

I wonder how she really feels about his spiralling mental illnesses and tragic obsessions (social media, conspiracies, politics). He seems quite useless and irrelevant to any business decisions these days. Just another investor to keep happy.

I think Tesla could also be a company driving positive change if he wasn't cutting costs and pushing stupid products

[–] [email protected] 6 points 6 months ago

It can be successful with Musk. Would love to see it separated from him

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 months ago

Ready or Not rules: If trump doesn't win in november then Musk and his entire empire explodes.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago

He will get eaten by hyenas, his investors, and then put in a cell.

It's funny how this maps exactly onto the Hunter Biden files, except that everything Republicans lied about happening is now actually happening.

[–] [email protected] 30 points 6 months ago

Every accusation is an admission

I thought that was the whole point of buying Twitter…

[–] [email protected] 8 points 6 months ago

That doesn't make it legal

[–] [email protected] 23 points 6 months ago

Elon is getting fat. Like old fat.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Yes, and that is clearly the reason he purchased the platform.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 6 months ago

He purchased the platform because he was forced to buy it after he fucked around.

Unfortunately, we're the ones that get to "find out".

[–] [email protected] 18 points 6 months ago

African immigrants are stealing the election

[–] [email protected] 7 points 6 months ago

Throw the fuckers in prison already.
