He surely needs a passport. Where did you get the idea he doesn't? Also, landing from outside a country or international block directly into a private airstrip is a big "no" on most of the world, and will land you in jail in a few places. He doesn't get an exception for that.

He also will continue to be able to own property around the world, and people will keep accepting his money. That's completely different from him managing to just run into a country, peacefully living there, and being able to mess with such country's society.

Ok, that's not completely insane... but would they also claim that we descend from octopus or starfish? Why whales?

The US wealthy are now international wealthy and borders no longer matter to them.

That used to be the case until last year...

But I don't think it is still true.

what? so you believe we came from whales?

What the absolute fuck? How one's mind gets into this?

You underestimate the electromagnetic emissions of cheap knock-off led bulbs!

The smart light switch has exactly the same problems as the smart bulb, and it's much harder to replace.

Lol, the "truck" part on the name was supposed to be serious?!

Outside of very ancient times, where many regimes we consider authoritarian were closer to an electoral technocracy anyway, I don't think even half of the totalitarian governments respected science or technology. And when they did, it was usually because somebody was forcing the leader's hand.

It's more of a trait of democracies.

Their claim also was 11,000lbs

You mean Tesla claims that car can tow 11,000lbs? If so, that's crazy.

Should have been born rich enough to afford to decide what to do with your own life. You have just yourself to blame.

Well, beats other kinds of argument.

To be fair, they put a truckload on the thing. Is it supposed to carry 4500kg in a trailer?
