    He really should have bought Reddit instead of Twitter, because he posts like the quintessential redditor

      He's talking to renowned brain genius Ian Miles Cheong about Haitian immigrants. Musk is worried that they're all cannibals, and NBC published an article pointing out that this is an insane thing to be worried about. They're both mad about it.

        If you're thinking that everyone from Haiti is a potential cannibal then you might just be a teensy bit racist as hell

            Today at the SpaceX launch facility in South Texas, Elon Musk died by drowning inside of a Tesla CyberTruck. He apparently drove the truck into the small waves on the Gulf of Mexico while filming promotional material about the CyberTruck's ability to be used as a boat. Witnesses at the scene claim the last words he was recorded uttering before the truck capsized in the shallow water was "I'm in a CyberTruck AND I'm on a FUCKING BOAT!"

            The incident recalls the recent death of another Tesla vehicle driver in a shallow pond by drowning.

      His money is literally the only thing he has and the only reason anyone interacts with him. The Tesla billionaire drowning incident will have consequences for him eventually. He will eventually lose his money and then his suicidal flaming downward spiral will really begin.

          No, someone died. Someone very very rich. Their family will pursue revenge and they have the cash to press the issue

            People die drowning in cars all the time, it isn't unique to teslas. Some girls from my high school did. Mythbusters did a video on how hard it is to break out from a car underwater unless you have a special tool. It won't be held against him.

            But he didn’t do anything directly lol. It’s not like Bernie Madoff who was directly calling rich people and proposing his scams to them. Elon’s crap is just the typical capitalist indifference to safety and quality. It’s not any different if her Samsung refrigerator fell on her

              I'm not saying that the law will punish Elon through established channels

              I'm saying Tesla will be looking at a huge civil lawsuit at some point that could be a serious issue specifically because this time their dumbass car killed one of the Important People in America

        He was putting his finger directly in the middle of the Ukraine war with the starlink for Ukraine BS. Eventualy he went back but you can absolutely be sure nothing bad will happen to him anytime soon given everyone is in a mutualy benefitial relationship with him and he got a lot of leverage.

        You're seeing this with Boeing even. Even if one of their planes crash with a couple of billionaires inside do you think they'll care about that or the fact Boeing is like 1/3 of the entire US MIC or something?

          The goal of Ukraine isn't to defeat Russia though, it's to sell weapons stockpiles

    Too bad we can’t screen immigrants for racism

    if centering my life and platform around dealing with the abundant trickster fae that ask for your name to whisk it away from you makes me "delusional" and "not attached to reality" then I will gladly accept such labels my-hero

    I do think we should screen for cannibals on Hexbear though.

    I can imagine the WSJ op-ed...

    An abhorrence of cannibalism does not axiomatically make one "right-wing". Yet such smears against individuals understandably concerned about national sovereignty are prevalent on social media...

    Was very confused for a bit where the cannibalism was supposedly coming from, but they’re just dusting off the classics of Afro Caribbean racism. Are they going to start scaremongering about voodoo zombies too?

    I can see the future, the swirling and mixing of tendrils of fascist conspiracy

    They're gonna combine this with the fent panic to try and argue that migrants are like zombies who must be self-defensed

    Putting aside the boulder of racism, does he think we don’t check people for criminal backgrounds?
