Hadn't thought about this before but his hatred of lgbtq+ has to be about self loathing of some sort, right?

his girl (who he probably never slept with because all his children are test tube babies afaik) ran off with a transwoman. it's that simple.

I think it goes deeper than just personal resentment. His mannerisms scream low masculinity to me.

She ran off with a transwoman? I mean my own life suggests this is quite possible but I can’t find anything out there confirming this a true.

Elon already got my money four years ago.  My deal is with the bank.  Nothing I do with the vehicle now can hurt him.  In fact, the people looking to take it off your hands at this point might be active supporters of his recent behavior.  Why would you want to help them while taking a financial hit yourself all to make yourself feel better and virtue signal?

Just slap a "Fuck You, Elon" bumper sticker on the back and keep trucking.

 

I can think of at least one thing.

Someone wrote an article once about how manned spaceflight is really only around because two dictators loved them some superweapons.

 

We'd almost certainly have developed rocketry at some point because satellite communications are so useful but you don't really need to send a person to the moon other than as a giant fuck you.

She supposedly shacked up with Chelsea Manning after Musk for a short time.  She and Manning never denied it or confirmed it, but I want to say that Musk started going hard after the LBGTQ folks after that (but maybe that was because of one of his kids and not Grimes).

It was the one-two punch of Grimes being linked with Chelsea around the same time Vivian was very publicly announcing she wanted nothing to do with him and that she was rejecting his name and wealth. His fragile ego couldn't handle it.

The Nazi went home today and defended Nazis and condemned those who judge AfD’s visionaries  

He spoke at an AfD rally, saying: "I think there is too much focus on past guilt, and we need to move beyond that. Children should not feel guilty for the sins of their parents - their great grandparents even"

If you're going to buy a new Tesla, for the love of christ, at least buy it in the UK (apparently)

Full refund after 3 years: "It's a process in the UK called Rejecting a car, where you go to your car finance company and argue that the car is not fit for purpose. They do a full investigation and give you an outcome, which can depend on the severity of the issues you're having with the car."

So much of this stuff can be solved by accepting and remembering a simple phase: "It's not about you."

Musk is proof that most of these guys just lucked into their fortunes, because he lacks some critical thinking.

Yeah. Even if Grimes hadn’t hooked up with Manning, it was all over the twitters and they weren’t denying it.  Then Leon’s kid rejecting him publicly.  For a control freak like Musk, it was a gut punch.

Over the years I’ve seen a lot of people claim that Texas seceding was not about slavery, and I just point them to this and ask them what the Texas leaders actually meant when they said “She was received as a commonwealth holding, maintaining and protecting the institution known as negro slavery--the servitude of the African to the white race within her limits--a relation that had existed from the first settlement of her wilderness by the white race, and which her people intended should exist in all future time.”

Because apparently that little statement meant something differently in 1861 than it does today.

https://www.tsl.texas.gov/ref/abouttx/secession/2feb1861.html

DECLARATION OF CAUSES: February 2, 1861, A declaration of the causes which impel the State of Texas to secede from the Federal Union.

The government of the United States, by certain joint resolutions, bearing date the 1st day of March, in the year A.D. 1845, proposed to the Republic of Texas, then a free, sovereign and independent nation, the annexation of the latter to the former as one of the co-equal States thereof,

The people of Texas, by deputies in convention assembled, on the fourth day of July of the same year, assented to and accepted said proposals and formed a constitution for the proposed State, upon which on the 29th day of December in the same year, said State was formally admitted into the Confederated Union.

Texas abandoned her separate national existence and consented to become one of the Confederated States to promote her welfare, insure domestic tranquility [sic] and secure more substantially the blessings of peace and liberty to her people. She was received into the confederacy with her own constitution, under the guarantee of the federal constitution and the compact of annexation, that she should enjoy these blessings. She was received as a commonwealth holding, maintaining and protecting the institution known as negro slavery--the servitude of the African to the white race within her limits--a relation that had existed from the first settlement of her wilderness by the white race, and which her people intended should exist in all future time. Her institutions and geographical position established the strongest ties between her and other slave-holding States of the confederacy. Those ties have been strengthened by association. But what has been the course of the government of the United States, and of the people and authorities of the non-slave-holding States, since our connection with them?

He’s nearly as loony as Howard Hughes, but Hughes wouldn’t have designed something like the Cybertruck.

Of course Hughes did f have social media.  He would have been amazing on it.

NSIAP

fantastic write up on WHY Elon did the Nazi salute

 

I am glad he took the time to explain that. Being autistic is no excuse for his behavior, but the early part of his life and being bullied did shape him. Clearly no one got him any help. Now he is in his 50’s and has a lifetime’s worth of imaginary scores to settle and he will use the United States government to do it. Thanks again to you 77 million plus that voted for this reality. Next round of cocktails filled with Covid curing bleach is on me.


To further expound on what my exceptionally smart neurodivergent brother said there, Elon likes to play people and groups off of one another.Why it is almost as if he paid attention to how the Afrikaners treated the 11 Indigenous groups of South Africans during Apartheid. You split them up and tell one group that the other group is the reason for your troubles. It becomes a never ending circle of hate for everyone. We have a narcissistic and extremely racist Afrikaner whose entire life since his childhood has been about getting back at people. He never evolved past that and now he has an actual office in Washington DC where he can talk to his god king and feed him whatever he has to in order to get what he wants. To say this is not ideal for us citizens of the United States who aren’t part of the cult is like saying Pearl Harbor was just some Japanese pilots on vacation that happened to accidentally drop a few bombs on some unsuspecting Americans. The seriousness of this moment in our history cannot be overstated.

Somebody got him some help.  Right down a stairwell.

https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/elon-musks-dad-debunks-bullying-205829573.html

Quote

According to the elder Musk, one high school-era incident Elon has repeated — when a classmate pushed him down a stairwell, leaving him hospitalized — actually began when Elon antagonized another boy about his father’s suicide.

“Some boy’s father had committed suicide and everyone knew, and Elon said to this boy, ‘Your father was stupid,’” Errol Musk said. He agreed that the man’s suicide was “stupid.” But even police and school authorities, he recalled, told Errol that “what Elon had said to this boy is too much. You can’t say that.”

Specifically, get some US flag wrap on it. Put bigger bling rims and short side wall tires, you'll tripple the investment by running an auction on the beach with some hired models to stand in the bed and cheer on the bidders.
