Imagine throwing away all the bullshit perception built over decades of lies, conspiracy theories, and misinformation that your side is the intellectual one and throwing it all away by picking a fight with the man responsible for Falcon 9.

The single greatest visionary of our time is now the left's enemy # 1 and he is kicking their asses. I can't stop laughing at this.

Political seppuku.

The dumbest part about this is Musk is not some crazy right winger either. He's center ish at best, he has done more for one of the leading leftist issues being climate change than any Democratic politician has ever done.

Big ideas, shitty implementation, toxic behavior. It is funny that intelligence is parabolic where on the extreme ends you're so weird you can't even name your kids right.

Definitely the smartest guy in the room right now. He's the new George Soros.

Yeah there is a lot of hysterics over him. Probably because him and Bezos made so much money during the pandemic while other people struggled so much. He didn't make money off of the pandemic though (like Bezos). I agree there is a lot of misplaced animus toward him.

Musk is awesome. Really appreciate the work him and his workforces are doing! Especially the spacex stuff, it's inspiring.

Bought Twitter too and next tweeting "next I'm buying coca cola and putting the cocaine back in" :thumbsup:


If i can get a Tesla phone I'll buy one for sure

Center by American standards, which by the standards of everywhere else is pretty far to the right.

He's still anti union and such. Billionaire after all. There's only so far left you can be while being one of the richest people in the world.

I will say though, at least he built something and took real risk. He came from a lot of money but he massively improved his standing instead of just riding off his parents success. Like somebody we all know.

You can't trust any billionaire.

Soros can't even hold a candle to what Musk has done for change. Soros is just a financier for various ideologies he peddles around the world and got rich by exploiting economic collapses in 3rd world nations like Malaysia and Thailand and England earlier in the 90s. Meanwhile Musk's company is close to breaking two million electric vehicle sales. Bezos also can't be compared to him. Bezos wealth can be attributed to basically creating a very successful and monopolistic marketplace, one that destroyed main street and is the poster child of what harmful anti-competitive capitalism looks like. We'll see what comes out of his Blue Origin space company, maybe that'll yield something actually truly groundbreaking.
