Dude can’t be coached. I have no idea how he was able to keep it together for the Biden debate. Just the dumbest, most childish motherfucker who has ever achieved fame and fortune at his level, not exaggerating. Elon musk get shot or something?

Kinda feels like Trump/Vance trying to get a pogrom going in Springfield is pretty important.

Shit like that post, among a million other things, sometimes makes me wonder if the dude is actually trying to lose but then I remember he’s actually just hard-rocking and not effectively calculating

Obviously his fans think he’s some 99.99999% percentile specialist on all things, when he’s more of just a rich spokesman type. I think he’s probably a really or at least generally smart dude, who also lacks the temperament of a regular adult, and has brain rot from a combination of audience capture and just going down the right wing rabbit hole. Certainly not the first accomplished, wealthy person in the last 10 years to just completely lose it from twitter informed tunnel vision.

Know what I like about Bernie? His leftism doesn’t mean he has to toss aside basic morality and become a conspiracy-minded stooge carrying water for shitty authoritarians abroad. yeah he does it for shitty american authoritarians instead thats so much better I don’t know you all do it down under, but we don’t have authoritarian leaders in our country and Bernard Sanders is an important figure in our national tradition of populist upheaval and he will NOT be slandered ITT.

I think he’s wrong about lots, but he’s an icon and represents a certain kind of old curmudgeon archetype that we all appreciate.

the only good thing about Elon Musk is that his insatiable need to be seen as an eccentric genius has led him to poor shit tons of money into somewhat useful ventures that any other oligarchic capitalist would view as a waste.

Certainly not the first accomplished, wealthy person in the last 10 years to just completely lose it from twitter informed tunnel vision. Elon's success stems from his insistence on running every one of his businesses like a 19th century industrialist, he's been able to leverage economies of scale in sectors that people assumed impossible. In that regard, I don't think he's dumb. The problem is that he's a midwit engineer and straight up socially hard rocking, but insists on trying to prove that he's a brilliant engineer and that everyone likes him.

he is certainly a savvy businessman and has used the fortune he’s amassed off the good/lucky bets he’s made in stem and tech to cultivate an image that he’s a genius/intellectual, and it has been entertaining watching that goodwill erode.
granted the downside is it seems the backlash might be attempting to incite a race war

Genuine question- what makes you think that Biden applied any pressure to Israel? Like what evidence or indication do you have of that other than leaked stories of Biden being upset with Bibi? Because as I see it they have made 0 meaningful attempts to get them to change course. What’s a meaningful attempt? Stopping weapons coming from America would be something, surely. Probably ultimately more of a gesture. And not that playing politics is always a justification, but the rationale for not doing more than tough talk likely portends Trump winning. Biden could only do so much, especially because there wouldn’t be a consensus backing him in congress, so the limited things he could do (beyond rhetoric) probably wouldn’t tilt the situation very far in the cease fire direction. And US Presidents (generally) still aren’t as bad as authoritarians like Putin and that’s not worth arguing to me. I wasn’t trying to engage in the Putin vs Biden debate because I think it’s pointless and I’m in agreement with you. I was just asking for examples of your claim that he has applied pressure to Israel because from my point of view all he has done is continue to peddle debunked 10/7 atrocity propaganda. I have said multiple times in this thread that Biden/Harris are better than Trump, and if you love Biden that’s fine but let’s not delude ourselves here.

Elon's basically those affluenza kids but with some modicum of earned/unearned intellectual credibility, so they're even MORE insufferable. He's also benefited from simply keeping legitimately intelligent/entrepreneurial tech folks in his orbit, so he just kinda looks like he's part of the "ground floor" for world-changing tech.
Elon's the idea/money guy who cosplays as an engineer for the press.

Elon wanted PayPal to be “x the everything app “ and was removed by Peter theil bc he’s hard rocking. 25 years later and he wasted 44 billion dollars doing the same thing. Trying to make conveyor belt tunnels in cities, the whole submarine thing to rescue those kids trapped in the cave that everyone told him was incredibly stupid. Telling all advertisers to go fuck themselves, then crying when no one wants to advertise on his platform.
He’s a dumb dumb man.

Not just crying, but literally filing lawsuits against advertisers for fleeing the platform, which is entirely their prerogative, including suing GARM, a not-for-profit that focuses on ethical media practices, completely out of business Dude is an actual terrorist He can’t get get run over by a self-driving cyborg truck soon enough

According to the NY Post(Americas #1 tabloid), it was just regular American gun violence in the general area of Marlago. Not targeting him.

Not that she was ever a real beauty, but she was definitely way hotter years ago. If she wasn’t evil, I’d feel bad that she had to walk around in public with her current face.
