Elon Musk | Doer of things on X and sad little man

Bill gates and his wife aren't perfect at all but have given billions to charity and their pledge of giving the majority to charity upon their deaths must surely be considered good or at least better than most.

Tbh, Zuck is also a part of giving pledge.

But, I believe that the commitment comes with a lot of strings attached.
 
If whether or not you're good depends on how much money you give to charity, then it's very easy for any billionaire to be good. Granted many of them don't even try, so in that respect the likes of Gates or Buffet aren't too bad. Gates has done a lot of shady stuff though, and it was instrumental in gaining that wealth in the first place.

But yes, I'd much rather have Gates or Buffet as the richest man in the world than Bezos, Musk or Zuckerberg.

No of course just giving money isn't good and not what I consider being a good person should be based on. Personally I think it should be compulsory anyway. And yeah, he has done some shady shit, but nothing compared to someone like Musk.

Has there ever been anyone that's made lots of money without doing something shady?

Probably if we don't count regular worker exploitation as shady, but if we do then probably not.
 
I think Bezos’s ex has pledged to give it all away and is actively doing so. A family member works for a charity that got one of her donations, so I can attest at least some of it is real.

edit: saying “Bezo’s ex” was insulting. MacKenzie Scott is her name.
 
I'd say charity doesnt really qualify as long as you don't gave it all away. Giving 1 billion to charity if you have 5 billion still leaves you obscenely rich and clearly on the side of the "Big Club" George Carlin talks about.
 
Ah yes, Joe Biden's pro-Hamas actions. Two political geniuses right here. Unfortunately one of them is the 4th (haha loser) richest person in the world who owns his own social media company which he actively fills with far-right propaganda. Ben Shapiro is harder to get upset at, he's too pathetic. Just read his posts in his own voice, and they immediately become funny.

I reckon it’s hard to get annoyed at any political commentary if you hear it in Ben Shapiro’s voice.
 
Here's Musk just casually chatting with a person in the far-right wing of the already far-right AfD, over his public use of a phrase championed by the SA (brownshirts).

Höcke is classed as right wing extremist by the Verfassungsschutz (internal intelligence agency) and under surveillance since 2020.
 
Lots of articles over the last few days on how Tesla is suffering due to Musk.
He was the main reason my wife decided on an “anything but Tesla” EV and it sounds like more and more are doing the same.

It remains to be seen how big this effect actually is, but it definitely seems like a bad PR move for Tesla.

Personally I'd never get a Tesla, but there are many other reasons than just Musk.

I was playing with the idea to buy a tesla when my car dies 2-3 years ago. Giving business to that prick+all the shitty news about its quality + lies on the self driven + blaming drivers for tesla's mistakes, is also a anything but tesla for me. Even if they would solve their problems, he is a gigantic douch and fortunately there are alternatives

The fringes on the right is not his audience, when it comes to selling EVs.

He is probably just too rich to care though, too big to fail, as the saying goes.
 
Was reading the comments on this video

Wow!


I really like to dwell on the thought that we live in parallel realities, and certainly reading this comments we do. We think that Musk fans live in a parallel reality but so they think the same of the ones we criticize him. And with that so many topics. And what if they are right and I am wrong? I certainly can't be always on the right side of reality

But yeah nah, they are crazy
 
I rarely wish harm on people, but goddamn if I don't have a lot of awful things I wish would happen to this fecking moron.
 
The platform is ruined beyond recognition. Every thread has a video of fecking animals in the comments. You have to scroll down about 30/40 tweets before seeing a reply that is relevant to the thread.
