You're a grown man and CEO of 3 multi billion dollar companies why the fuck are you talking to skidoo dealership owners about what video games you like to play Jesus

His fellow 50+ divorced dads googling "elden ring" and "what does based mean?" to fit in with the groyper crowd.

This fucking puke stain of a human

Whenever people ask me what I think about Elon musk I say the fact that this guy is the richest person on earth tells you everything you need to know about the depraved abomination of a society we have built. Every time I think about it I want to fire myself into the sun

Dude is 53 years old grow the fuck up it's embarrassing

Like go spend time with your kids what are you doing

[–] [email protected] 17 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Considering he's apparently a piece of shit parent in general (outside of the neglect), I honestly think the less time those kids spend around him, the better.

Honestly giving some of them Wi-fi password ass names alone should be considered child abuse if you ask me.

It would be in Iceland, a majority white country with a homogeneous culture aka his dumb racist dream

I never want to hear one of the normies on 4chan brag about how edgy he is. Bro, YOU’RE the mainstream. Hell, you always have been.

his kids don't deserve to be subjected to his presence

Being a CEO must be pretty easy if he has all this time to demand to be pandered to.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 6 months ago

He wants attention from nerds and chuds. He really wants to be the Nerd King or whatever, so he wastes his time and money with this shit. When Bernie Sanders was popular (2015 - 2018), Elon used to pretend he was a socialist (what he meant was that he was a social democrat) and that he supported Basic Income and LGBTQ+ rights, but behind the scenes he was still a conservative lib that gave money and support to people like Obama, Hillary Dlinton and Biden.

I believe Elon thinks being a chud/republican is popular now and counter-culture, so now he changed all his opinions to be compatible with those people and be popular with these people. Elon is a very shallow person with basically no real morals or ideology besides making money and being popular, that's why he refuses to say bad things about China and the Chinese goverment.

He's also basically directly saying that the experiences of women and trans folks cannot be art, which is extremely telling and also extremely unsurprising that he would think that.

The genital option in cyberpunk was so silly. Aside from sexualising trans people while locking pronouns to voices, why no t-dick? Why no penis but no testicles (post orchie)? Why no robot penis or vagina? Why not both or nothing there like a Ken doll?

maam this is a wendys

art is when heteronormative fanservice

[–] [email protected] 20 points 6 months ago

Yeah, we get it, Elon. You don’t like "entartete Kunst".

“Did you hear that, gamers? They just called ALL OF US sjws! If they want me to be reverse racismt, I’ll just start hating white people if it makes them so happy!”

[–] [email protected] 17 points 6 months ago (1 children)

We should give them games with nothing but white male (human) characters. Every single character. No more elves. No more orks. No goblins. No zombies. No dragons. No ghosts. Just white men. All white men.

And if they utter a single word of protest we tie them to anvils and throw them in the ocean.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 6 months ago

Counter-point: we should give them nothing, then tie them to anvils and throw them into the ocean.

I don't want to believe it, but, well, any body remember how trans and gay porn tends to be searched more heavily in red states? What if it isn't that he's illiterate, but rather that Elon really relates to this media not at all on accident, and deals with his feelings about himself by being a bigoted, ultra-divorced shit bag? Someone I know a little more personally and didn't talk to for a few years ended up transitioning both from female to male and non-nazi to Nazi in those few short years, so it wouldn't be the first time, I guess.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 6 months ago (2 children)

Wait they became trans and a Nazi concurrently?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (1 children)

Yeah. I can't say I ever understood it, but that's right.

Basically, I knew them from a webforum in the oughts and early tens, and we reconnected just before the pandemic hit. I noticed a lot of Jewish merchant memes, which kind of surprised me from the person I knew they used to be. The more I watched, listened, and followed up, the more they leaned into the whole "I'm an ironic Nazi" bit. Of course, we all know that there's no such thing as ironic Nazis. I've always fantasized about bullying fascists IRL, so I took it as a chance to learn more about the enemy, and I would say that I benefitted greatly from that experience.

Share your knowledge, please.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 months ago

It's nothing new these days. Basically, it taught me about the YouTube/podcast/male-coded media to Nazi pipeline. Basically, every time I started to defuse their bullshit, they'd just share a video at me by some rightoid influencer. It also taught me about the whole "ironic Nazi" thing. Probably the biggest thing I got out of it was being able to quickly pick up on the tells of nazi-coded speech. Stuff like hiding behind 'jokes', hiding your power level, etc. I find it a little difficult to convey, I guess it's a little like the difference between reading about the planets and seeing them through a telescope (but a lot less beautiful). It just isn't the same, and not matter how much reading you do, it's not going to really prepare you to actually experience it.

How does diablo lore favor women?
