like yeah i am not gonna let the man who is trying to create the subway but worse and with cars put anything on my head
This grifter will never shut the fuck up will he?
His solar panel roof singles never worked. His hyperloop never worked and he ended up just "inventing" an insanely dangerous tunnel for cars once he realised how untenable it was. He didn't found Tesla and just bought the title founder, and made their (insanely expensive) production facilities unsafe because he doesn't like the colour yellow. He has contributed nothing to SpaceX. He ripped people off with PayPal.
Even considering all of this, he has managed to milk the government out of billions in taxpayer subsidies for projects that go nowhere so he can line his pockets.
God I hate this guy so much.
Anyone who actually gets this is a cult member and is super delusional and ignorant and should be treated as such
well like if we have to sit and watch the empire die, we might as well just embrace the cool look
I gave myself a mohawk when quarantine started, and it's starting to get real nice
He's always seen himself as the main character of a scifi novel, but whether he's the hero or the villain changes depending on how mean the internet is to him.
lol, can you imagine the reddit posts if a chinese company came up with something like this
I half listened to him tell Joe Rogan about these things and when Rogan asked if Musk would get one he basically said “fuck no”. So I think I’ll wait.
Transhumanism is cool and good, but absolutely not under capitalism
So then we can agree that for the time being, it is actually bad and harmful? And historically quite bound up with scientific racism and eugenics?
Also, based on his other ventures, this will 100% not work but will give you a brain abscess in 6 months.
What astonishingly obvious bullshit. We don't understand the root causes of like half that shit.
Hasn't everyone of these "augment humans" ideas turned out horribly for the idiots involved? Like your body tries to reject or contain foreign matter inserted into it? I'm not really aware that we've solved that very basic issue yet.
Also, theres no way in hell world im letting some billionaire install a computer in my brain. And this shit has some serious "whitey on the moon" vibes.
like the real answer is not really like we have cardiac pacemakers and other basic augmentions but they are simple things and even they can fail and be rejected by the body, so the idea of mr "my autopilot can't stop hitting trucks at highspeeds" putting a complex thing on my brain is not cool
I mean if they put the foreign objects in properly it shouldn't be an issue, a spinal fusion used to treat severe scoliosis or kyphosis involves two titanium rods and 20 plus titanium screws. And it's usually a very successful procedure when you compare the patients health before and after the operation. The current women's climbing nationals champion (Kyra Condie) has a spinal fusion for example. Oviously if you put a random microchip or magnet in your wrist it's going to go bad, but foreign objects in your body is part of a lot of successful health procedures
Good point about the titanium rods, we at least have som level of ability to do this. My sister has a prosthetic in her leg which I believe is titanium and has had problems with tissue forming around the prosthetic, hence my distrust of the "startrek medical science phantasy" that liberal media seems to be selling these days.
Regarding the "augmented humans", I'm more thinking of the tech bros that I've seen who's had microchips and displays implanted into their arms. I remember reading about one of these guys that he got some metal poisoning in his blood and had to have an "emergency surgery" to have it removed.
Well yeah if you're going to implant random shit in your arm of course it's going to go bad. The whole techbro fad of microchipping yourself is full on cyber brainworms for lack of a better term. Like don't put random shit in your body for no reason, super unnecessary medical risk, especially if it's not needed for any health reasons
Lmao the guy's autopilot can't switch off "kill mode" and I'm supposed to trust something he signs off on to go in my brain?
When it inevitably blows up, it might kill a few rich people so we'll have that to look forward to, at least
