Elon Musk’s financial interests put him in a position of having his own personal foreign policy, but new reporting shows that whether it’s manufacturing in China or the Starlink network being used in Ukraine, Musk’s decisions can run counter to stated US policy.
What the hell? Look, man, I hate the guy but he’s remarkably consistent: he works for his interests. Even when he does dumbshit things like buy Twitter, the thinks he’s operating in his interests.
He’s not complicated. He’s a self absorbed piece of shit. That’s really all you ever need to know about the fucker.
But he’s also a contrarian asshole.
Which he is also pretty consistent about. Yet somehow these children’s cartoon evil/greedy businessmen are just handed power and trusted by such a shocking amount of people. It is kind of impressive in a “we’re fucked” kind of way.
“Elon desperately wants the world to be saved. But only if he can be the one to save it,” Altman added.
From an interview with Sam Altman. It’s grandoise narcissism, plain and simple.
This is why billionaires shouldn’t exist they are treasonous
Just too much power for one person. Even if they’re not in charge of a global internet provider, your average billionaire can singlehandedly affect the lives of millions of people (employees, customers, bystanders) with no democratic oversight at all. It’s just not something that should exist.
They should exist, but we are not utilizing them correctly. Once someone has reached a billion dollar networth then they are thrown a big party and then sacrificed to a valcono. I believe this would curb emissions and fix climate change.
There was a native American tribe that every ten years had individuals return all personal wealth back to the tribe and the threw a big party, then start it all over again

My ilk?
You’re jumping to conclusions.
Billionaires are treasonous because they live outside the laws of their country, hold power over the government there and gain their money through exploitation

Yes since forever, they’ve always been a problem for the same reasons I mentioned above, same story with oligarchs.
I don’t care about Musk, I feel the same way about Bezos, Gates and whomever else
We live in a society

Meanwhile, until he was supporting USA and Ukraine, he was the good white hero for your ilk.
Yeah, because of that. This isn’t the gotcha you think it is, you aren’t uncovering a double standard. People deem helping Ukraine righteous, and helping Russia treasonous, this is no secret.

What does this race bait have to do with Elon Musk?

I am too lazy to check how much of the world’s population that accounts for - but it is hardly the 10-15 percent you have brought up
ps: there were only 5 votes against this resolution - Russia being one of… North Korea as well
