Elon Musk is a moron of the highest order

[bilby]

The problem with modern armaments is that now, one loyalist with a machine gun can mow down an army of peasants in a minute, should they gather “illegally”.

That was already true in 1918, but it didn't save the Tsar.

Not quite as true. Targets are harder as well.

Not always.

Not always.

Heh - that was back in the Stone Age when the military wasn’t allowed to kill Americans! I don’t think you get what’s going on here. Also, those rioters were trying to INSTALL the tyrant, not remove him.

I don’t think Musk is a “moron” but I do think that just because a person is smart in some ways doesn’t mean they are smart in all ways.

Musk is an extreme case. He’s reeeeal smart about some stuff, and way out to lunch on others. Similar to a smarter Trump.

He's technically smart, but he has no heart, and he's greedy as well. How many billions of dollars is enough? it's frightening that our country is about to be run primarily with a bunch of greedy billionaires, who don't know a thing about government, other than how to exploit it for their own purposes.

Why do you say he has no heart? Examples?

Are you being sarcastic?

How about I just give you a link to a bunch of articles that demonstrate what a mean, asshole he is. Isn't it obvious that all he cares about is himself and how many billions of dollars he can accumulate?

https://www.reuters.com/investigates/section/musk-inc/

Reuters exposes grave harms to consumers, workers and laboratory animals across Elon Musk’s manufacturing empire, resulting in investigations by U.S. and European regulators and calls for action from U.S. lawmakers.

Just read a few of the articles in the link if you honestly don't understand what an awful person Musk is and what a threat to the country he will be if he is permitted to have as much power as he seems to think he will. A lot of people think he will piss Trump off since it's hard for a narcissist to let another self centered person get too much attention, but Musk is doesn't have a heart, and no I'm not talking about a literal heart, but I'm pretty sure you know that.

I guess the OP landed in General Religion because Elon referenced atheism in his little verse, but if you think for a nanosecond that he's any more motivated by God-belief than Trump, that'd make you a moron of a rather high order. Try to imagine either of these asshats kneeling bedside and saying a prayer to the Christian god.

Moron? He knows the fan boys have his back no matter how disingenuous his silly statement about religion. He knows what he needs to know.

But without Musk there would be no SpaceX and no engineers with jobs working there.

It would be someone(s) else. Engineers are rarely relegated to skid row. SpaceX is incidental. Another name, same mission and in a more perfect world not privately controlled. (Like it was back when America was Great).

If your specialty and interest in engineering is in rockets (like mine was), your options for employment are limited compared to other products of engineering, such as computers, cars, bridges, etc. I'm not sure what the appeal is for having space launch vehicles be a government agency. Seems like his private company has created a product that is at least as good, more reliable and innovative than anything the gubmint has done.

A public reminder, the CEO is responsible for any good things by a company... anything bad or nefarious was out of their hands. This message is provided to you by the Conservative Council of America.

As is anyone who believes this/any variation of it.

I didn't realize bad, religious themed poetry delegates you to the "moron of the highest order" category, despite what other things you may have achieved in life. Does this crappy poem of his nullify accomplishments such as this?

I'd say the poem supplements just how full of himself he is. Crying out how fucking women without condoms is godly.

He's motivated by the profitability of other peoples' god beliefs.

Well, this is true. Trump knows how to monetize Christianity, that's for F'in sure.

This is probably an old story, but it's new to me. As Rachel Maddow explains, on Thanksgiving Day 2022 Elon Musk encouraged Tesla owners to turn on self-driving mode. This led to a spate of accidents, including dozens of fatalities. It's back in the news because "Trump team wants to scrap car-crash reporting rule that Tesla opposes."
