He is so incredibly desperate for admiration and worship, and sadly it’s not hard to find people who are incredibly eager to give it to him.
Sometimes I want to legit interview Musk and ask.....what the hell?
FWIW in the mid 2010s he had a great brand: He was making environmentalism cool, getting people into science and technology, and making a case for an ethical capitalism. I really liked him back then when I was a lib because I thought the Tesla EVs were cool and also he once did this really cool thing: allow anyone to use the tesla patents if it meant speeding up green technology, he even peddled the whole going to mars thing as a last ditch effort in case our efforts on earth fail.
If he just kept this up, he would have been hailed as a hero and people like us would be mocked for daring to criticize him from the left, especially if he used that 44 billion to just end homelessness in America and not 44 billion just to own the libs (which would have costed around 20 billion).
Elon could have played into him being the quintessential American figure, an immigrant that had something to contribute and left the country better than he found it. Sure, no one cares that he's a nepo baby that inherited a fortune from his parents, but you know damn well people would care even less if he just kept up the brand.
Even his gripes about trans people and how it "took away his kid". Elon Musk could always just.....talk to his daughter and try to understand her. Even now it would look noble if Elon Musk publically apologized to Vivian despite being in a position of strength and said he was in the wrong to mistreat her, like even my few remaining conservative values are pissed at Elon for literally choosing the internet's approval over his own family. I know that a lot of his LGBTphobia is essentially redpilled virtue signalling (vile signalling?) because Tesla has a DEI report in 2020, saying it's a good thing, and and even two years ago Tesla scored with perfect equality for LGBT workers. So to me, this development was done out of not just malice, but also convenience.
I'm convinced Elon Musk is a legit chud, but what surprises me is that he's fully crossed over to the GOP when the democrats would have suited him well. Trying to be bigger chuds than even they actually are thinking it will "win over the normals", and win or lose taking that deep breath in the mirror and saying "we gotta get more racist".
That's what makes it extra personal between Elon Musk and other billionaires, Elon had so many things going for him, and threw it all away because he'd rather look cool like he's some perpetual high schooler. So now we get to see what it's like when an edgy 12 year old is drunk with real power.
EDIT: Some grammatical/rhetorical changes.
It would be really neat if Elon Musk was a target in the game Hitman: World of Assassination. Then agent 47 could find a way to lock one of these guards in a closet and get close to Voyager in order to... Idk push that giant X sign that was on the Twitter offices onto his head. It would be neat if that happened in the game Hitman: World of Assassination.
Please, please, please let his ass get catapulted into the Delta quadrant. It doesn't even have to be the far side of the galaxy; I'd settle for him getting ingested into the engine intake of a Delta Airlines Boeing 777.
Oh! We also need a episode where Seven and the Doctor tries to implant a Neuralink into his brain.
Doctor: "Extraordinary."
Seven: "Indeed. There's no brain patter, but the subject is still alive."
Elon: "Guys, I'm right here."
Doctor: "And if i slowly turn... up... the... interface."
Elon shits himself as his corps starts flapping around having a seizure on the med-bed
*Seven looks apathetically at him as she's hitting the display: "I've erected a level 10 force field."
Doctor: "Simply... Extraordinary."
Janeway: "If he want to live on this ship we can't have him walking around the hallways, it's bad for crew morale. If he wants to get places he need to crawl through the Jefferies tubes from now."
Chakotay: "Captain, isn't that little harsh? He'll spend all day crawling around in there just to get to the mess hall, just to get to..."
Janeway, "Oh and Chakotay, from now on they're called the "hyper tubes", make sure the rest of the crew knows."
Chakotay: "Kath..."
Janeway: "Dismissed."
They were in a transporter accident together, creating a new form of life called Elix. Janeway beamed its ass into space without a second thought, and everybody was happier for it.
B'Elanna: "You'll be launched down this tube in this retrofitted photon torpedo at warp 5 through a perfect vacuum. It will cut years off your journey."
Paris: "You'll be fiiiiiinee, Elix! We ran simulations on the holo-deck. I even made the modifications myselfe."
Musk should make like the Voyager and leave the Solar System
we are still communicating with voyager. I do not want to hear from Musk again.
How about we crash him into an asteroid and do spectral analysis on the debris
We def shouldn't advocate for violence. But if someone did an adventurism on him, that person would be a hero to most of the world. Not that anyone should do that, tho.
I've always said, if I'm terminally ill, or all of my friends and pets die in some accident, I would possibly, maybe think about doing a little final vigilantism.
If I'm going back to the earth, I might as well do something to heal her before I go. Like removing one of the biggest tumors on the planet.
Would love to see them all get lit up coming into Venezuela and Maduro personally just beating the shit out of Musk streamed live.
After Maduro called his bluff
been pretty quiet about that.
Their code-name for him is not Voyager, at least when he's not around.
I guess he's worried about the saudis coming to collect on their debts
It must be sa insane to constantly be living in fear which is a direct outcome of ostentatious wealth
I got a code name just like the president!
