It’s refreshing to see a major publication just flatly stating that he’s a fascist.

It was his grandfather who was arrested for being a technocrat while the party was banned during WW 2, and who moved to South Africa from Canada for a “white people’s fight” against “global jews”. https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2023/09/joshua-haldeman-elon-musk-grandfather-apartheid-antisemitism/675396/
Not saying his direct parents didn’t hold similar beliefs.

“Oh no! The consequences of my actions!”
Nah fuck this guy. We need to make Nazis unforgivable again. None of this halfway bullshit or trying to see their side of the story.
He will never feel any external consequences.
Best we can hope for is a bout of depression that’ll make him do something we all won’t regret.I want him to lose it so badly that he starts blaming this administration for everything that happened to him and starts going off against them. That’d be hilarious.
fuck you fascist musk and the rest of the facist class trators that need to be shredded in a woodchipper then eaten by pigs.
Fuck Elon but also fuck eastern civilization just as much as western, because humans all over the earth are shit, and no one should side with anyone of these authoritarian cunts
Why are you being downvoted? Bad people can exist everywhere. Putin is a world leader in the east. Putin is a huge piece of shit.
Or does everyone else need me to give you all a history lession on evil leaders from all over the world?
Because lemmy is full of anti-west fake communists who think China is great because they know nothing about China. The world is fucking shit, and east or west doesn’t matter.
Psycho rulers are bad. China, England, USA, Russia, North Korea, Iran. They’re all the same. All anti-human, self centered fuckwads.
Because it’s a weird off topic tangent. Go read the title of the post again then tell me what Tesla stock being down has to do with authoritarianism in the East.
The reply is as relevant as someone saying “this isn’t the only thing that’s great, so is people donating blood.” I mean sure, I agree with you, but why are we changing the subject?
Edit: It’s also a weird “all lives matter” situation:
“Fuck these fascists!”
“No, fuck all fascists”
What made them think OP was okay with other fascists?
Bit out of left field but ok
Maybe for you
I’m just a little perplexed. Why not “fuck all civilization”? Seems peculiar to identify each distinct civilization segment but OK
If you don’t know why, then maybe you don’t know enough to participate in the conversation because you are missing a lot.
Yea i admit I don’t know. What special knowledge are you holding back from us? Would love to learn more about why eastern civ is left out of the party
Perhaps a bit off topic but I miss when Black Mirror had pigs in it and wasn‘t just all about „we are so fucked, like soooo fucked you guys“. In hindsight rest of the series could never really live up to the pilot where politicians got eaten alive by the mob.
I remember the pig one, there was definitely still fucking going on
these contrived reports of him quitting politics or being depressed to try to get some sympathy and stop the stock selling are pathetic. He’s never cared about anyone else, even his own children, and he still absolutely does not. He’s a spoiled psycopath who thinks he can manipulate people.
I believe every piece of “news” about him is a self made “press release” that he sent so his name and message can get out. I feel it’s all part of his plan.
This.
We don’t “this” here.
We don’t “we don’t ____ here” here.
We do “We don’t “we don’t ____ here” here.” here.
We don’t “We don’t ‘we don’t ____ here’ here.” here. /s
I do. I’m doing it right now with my other hand.
(eat cheese and crackers while sitting at keyboard)
Darn, too bad he isn’t depressed enoigh to drive one of his Teslas into a swimming pool.
My money is on autoerotic asphyxiation

My money is on Merman. Come on Merman. 🧜♂️
Give it time
That’s not soon enough!
Follow your leader Elon, there’s no way out.
I entirely do not regret mercilessly insulting and mocking him, directly, on Twitter, after he bought it.
… Never had a Twitter account before then, got it banned within 8 hours, very likely by Elon, personally.
Fuck 'im.
Hell the Tesla could do it for him if the stories about it’s autopilot are true.
he’s depressed because as a millionaire he made slightly less money
i’m depressed because i’m queer and autistic and a rich evil fuck in government is killing queer helplines and putting autistic people on kill lists.
we are not the same
*billionaire
He ain’t even depressed, it’s just an act, like him ever being a Democrat.
Elon Musk is a predator acting wounded so that you’ll drop your guard
If it bleeds…
He probably is depressed. Money doesn’t buy happiness
I knew Elmo is rich, but is he autistic?
He said he was when he hosted SNL
Nah, drugs
Not sure that’s officially been diagnosed, but he sure acts like it.
deleted by creator
To be fair, he did make a prediction before the election that the DOGE cuts will cause some financial pain.
Hopefully he shorted Tesla.
Wow, imagine how rich he could be if he did that!
Maybe he should kill himself.
Say what you want about Hitler, but he killed Hitler.
That has to be a norm joke
Or did he?
We call it following your leader.
It’s a start but we can do better, guys
Oh no, please don’t hang yourself Mr Elmo, that would be such a waste of good rope.
Yes, but on the other hand, he would create a new national holiday
Oh don’t worry, he won’t kill him self, he’ll just increase his ketamine stupor. Hopefully to the point he becomes incapable of making anymore decisions, especially decisions that affect other people.
Never you worry about the rope. Trump will sell that bad boy to the hundreds of thousands of his most devoted loyalists for a mere $499,999.
Not if he uses some chunky thick new rope to really draw out the suffocation.
Not if we reuse it.
There’s not really any news in that article.
Notably, Musk said he would be stepping back from DOGE after May but didn’t go into any detail about what that would mean. Even though he said he would be easing up on his involvement, the billionaire said that he would remain in the government through President Trump’s entire term,
This is meaningless.
stepping back from DOGE after May
Appointed temporary government employee which means he only could work until June without congressional approval. Set this up from the start to take heat off of Trump and allow Trump to seem reasonable compared to Musk when Trump ‘fires’ him in June.
I’m aware of that, but obviously the concept of “work” doesn’t apply to Musk as it does to government employees generally.
He will have the same influence and whatever level of involvement he wants regardless of whether he’s a temporary government employee, a consultant, or just a contact.
And do you know how to know it is meaningless… it starts with “musk said”. Everything after that is worthless.
Even the word “notably” before that is useless. Notably something un-notable occurred. Great, thanks.
yeah and also, so what?
This is very meaningful, the stock market will start growing again and everyone who managed to buy more shares around the 7-8th of April will become insanely rich in a very short span of time. And those who got scared and sold will continue crying that the rich are getting richer and the poor are getting poorer.

To be fair, there was a time most people DID like him. People forget, but the reason Tesla was innitially sucsessful is it was one of the only good electric cars at the time being sold by a leftist who wants to help the environment. And people loved him, both on reddit and twitter.
Then he went batshit crazy.
Now we’re here.
He always showed flashes of arrogance and I had heard working for any of his companies even back in the ”good days” was hell. It’s when he started exhibiting all this stuff publicly in the late 2010s that people understandably started turning on him.

Cause it was just a PR front, he has always been a shit stain, like his family literally move to south Africa because of the apartheid, he comes from a family of nazi scum

For me it was joining 45’s business summit in 2016
It still gives me a little confident boost when I think about how liberal friends and family admitted that I was right about him the entire time.
The signs where there but people weren’t looking. Even when you explained it to them. It took at least a dozen of major missteps and blunders by him to finally make most people realize what he really is.
They kept telling themselves (and me) his good deeds will outweigh the bad ones when in reality those where cracks in the facade to show what lies underneath. They couldn‘t see the bright red flags for what they are because they thought it‘s about a balance between good and bad, not character qualities that can only lead down one road.
You’re wrong about one thing: He didn‘t go crazy. He always was.
Has he tried not being a nazi bastard?
…maybe he’ll do the world a favor and step into an industrial shredder…
(shame about his genetic legacy, but hopefully all their mothers are mostly good people who give them a fighting chance at turning out well)
