Billionaire condemned for ‘extraordinarily irresponsible’ post amid disorder on Britain’s streets
Civil war is inevitable just like COVID would be over by April 2019 and that humans would set foot on Mars in 2024 (they better hurry up.)
This website keeps track of all the stupid bullshit Elon has predicted:
Wish Version Iron Man is a weird motherfucker.
Wish Version Iron Man
Oh that’s good.
I also like: Rebate Rockefeller.
“Phony Stark” is my personal favorite
Bargain-Bin Buffett
Apartheid Carnegie
Oh. That’s a good one.
Idk, regular Carthegie was already kind of Apartheid Carthegie.
I think you mean Temu Iron Man. Wish Iron Man would be a step up from what we have.
I started reading, got about 10 minutes in before realizing how much there was. Jesus why do people think he is anything other than a hype man
I’m curious what percentage of people actually take him seriously, at this point.
Way too many. And way too many powerful ones. All they see is dollar signs.
I mean, they do exist, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it was a single digit percentage. When he gets invited to speak on things the vibe is more that he’s human clickbait than anything.
If anyone doesn’t know it yet:
The podcast Tech Won’t Save Us has a wonderful series called “Elon Musk Unmasked” where they also debunked all of his empty promises.
Covid didn’t even start until like October 2019, and didn’t reach America until February 2020.
The world didn’t even know that word in April 2019.
Website says:
Close to Zero New Cases
- 1,601 days since Elon Musk predicted that Coronoavirus would vanish soon in the US to justify keeping Tesla’s factories open. (3/19/2020)
“Based on current trends, probably close to zero new cases in US too by end of April”

Children Immune
- 1,601 days since Elon Musk assured parents that children were basically immune to coronavirus. (3/19/2020)
“Kids are essentially immune, but elderly with existing conditions are vulnerable.”

Just the Flu
- 1,649 days since Elon Musk said Coronavirus would be similar to the flu. (1/31/2020)
“There is considerable conflation of diagnosis & contraction of “corona”. Actual virality is much lower than it would seem. I think this will turn out to be comparable to other forms of influenza.”

Gave me something to laugh at while eating lunch
Yeah I feel a bit more optimistic for the future now that this clampit has voiced his shitty wet dream.
Yeah, I look at it as inevitable but I’m also aware I’m a terminally online weirdo in a lefty echo chamber who should keep his thoughts mostly anonymous.
is there also a site covering his lawsuits? That bitcoin one seems… actionable
It’s a pity it stopped somewhere 2022.
Elon wants war because he wasn’t able to delete this picture from the internet forever. Don’t be embarrassed Elon
News articles should start using this picture whenever they mention him, or that one where he’s balding and looks like a meth addict.
Money grows hair
Just a little gender supporting hair care.
His villain origin story is that he couldn’t fit in with goths or furries, then got mad at his trans daughter.
That’s actually not too cringe by Elon standards.
Ngl, want that jacket.
The cat photo is the absolute best. It says 100% seen something that is going to kill.
“Civil war is inevitable” says guy who does everything he can to start one.
Soon he will announce his new company, VaultTech
Nah it needs an X in it for it to be a company of his.
XaultXech
He must be scared of his parents - or scared of losing an inheritance - because he hasn’t changed his own name to have an X in it yet.
Ex-lax Mux certainly has a ring to it, don’t you think?
Teslax?
Pretty sure that’s a laxative
Which is fine, because elon is so full of shit.
Can’t be a good product then.
VaultX
Sounds like a porn site specialising in vintage porn.
New business idea, made by ME
Trademarked!
Does he not realize that the left ALSO have guns? And if this war does take place, he’s in the top 10 of people who would be targeted? Does he not get this?
Dickhead’s talking about the UK though. Not a whole lot of firearms around outside of farmer’s shotguns.
…well thats even dumber than I thought!!! May as well claim everybody is going to shoot rockets at each other.
Mandem got knives though
Is that why he has been developing an ugly car with “bulletproof” glass?
That’s not even bulletproof…
If you’re still on Twitter, you’re part of this problem. If you have a Tesla, sell it. You can live without Starlink too. And do you really need that new Mars rocket?
Never had any of those but I still get subjected to tales of this idiot’s latest brainfart on a daily basis.
They’re all easy to avoid giving money to. That said, all of those things would be much improved, virtually overnight, if he were to just… spontaneously combust. (Or, even less probable, seek psychological help.)
It’s amazing how much damage a few men (Putin, Trump, Musk…) are allowed to do. History indicates this has always been the case, but at least we didn’t have a live feed of their every deranged thought or desperate cry for attention.
Seriously. We have Mastodon now. Any government or corporation can run their own instance and have their own official servers that aren’t subject to the whims of this fucking lunatic.
He will transition into a despot and warmonger next, and then move into weapons. Lot of money to be made there.
Sounds like exactly the guy you want owning a huge societal discussion platform and developing brain interfaces.
Don’t forget about the humanoid robots!
Quickly the robots are invading, walk away at a brisk pace, or you’ll never escape.
Didn’t he already sell a flamethrower?
It’s a real shame that lawmakers seem squarely focused on sinophobia, because X should absolutely be skewered just as hard as TikTok if a hostile beast like Musk is at the helm.
We don’t have enough firearms in private hands evenly distributed to have a civil war you fucking nepo-silverspoon-lollipop!
Maybe you should be looking at your own country for that and I wonder where the nutjobs are that would kickstart that would hear their misinformed reason? I’ll give you a clue, it used to rhyme with Shitter!
you fucking nepo-silverspoon-lollipop!
I wish Americans could insult with the skill that British people insult.
It’s a cultural skill developed over many centuries where armies stood on opposite ends of a field and insulted eachother before the charge happened.
Here’s a breakdown of the aforementioned insult:
“You Fucking” used as a layup for whatever follows. It is best to exclude swears for subsequent words unless you intend to punctuate the end with a worse swear. The only one up from “Fuck” is “Cunt” without getting into slurs.
“Nepo” shorthand for nepotism, this is the personal attack element and should be first in the insult. If you imagine stabbing someone with words, this is the one that breaks through the skin. It also has two syllables so it can follow on well from “fucking” which also has two.
“Silverspoon-lollipop” is the final thrust of the insult deep into their soul. This has three elements:
- It is a second personal attack that is closely related to the first as it denotes inherited wealth.
- It is the first part of “silverspoon-lollipop”. This paints the image in one’s mind of Elon having a silverspoon stuck up his arse and therefore making him a human lollipop (popsicle). Creating an absurd and humiliating visual of your opponent is a good way to inject a healthy dose of comedy which is THE key ingredient to any good putdown. Lollipop, as an inherently silly-sounding word, is the punchline again because of the absurdity of feeling destroyed by being called a lollipop.
- Both sets of words have the same number of syllables. This gives the insult a good rhythm: 2-2-3-3.
In closing, this is a skill that can be learnt it just requires practicing a few rules-of-thumb:
- Target weaknesses and personal flaws in your opponent that they can’t deny.
- Warp those flaws into an absurdity that adds comedy.
- Be sparing with swears and use them as layups or punctuation.
- Think about syllables and rhythm like one would do in a rap or roast battle. If it’s too long, split it into multiple insults.
- Keep in mind your cultural sensitivities. For example, in the UK it’s pretty universal that the only swears more offensive than “Cunt” are ethnic and cultural slurs. I also learnt from my Romanian friend that a lot of the worst insults from there are centred around the mother or the sister.
- If use your cultures’ sayings and idioms, which are more widespread in English than people realise, as shorthand.
- Practice, practice, practice.
Use these guidelines and you’ll have your enemy’s soul demoralised and destroyed their therapist will need a therapist. Happy insulting, ya bastards! 😊
Like, okay, but you don’t need that for a civil war.
Elon is so dumb, he doesn’t even know the difference between the UK and the US.
The assailant is British-born. The protests in the streets is nothing but fueled by thuggery and racism.
The protests in the streets is nothing but fueled by thuggery and racism.
So, every right wing protest?
I don’t live in the UK, but here in Ireland, genuine concerns-- primarily on housing-- is piggybacked by the far-right to further their own agenda.
And that agenda? Guessing thuggery and racism.
Specifically for the UK, shitheels like Tommy Robinson are 100% just using racism for his ‘protests’.
One of the most powerful rallying images for racists is the “foreigner” raping/killing “their” innocent white women. It was fertile ground for a disinfo campaign. It triggers a runaway emotional response in some susceptible people. The web agitators already tested this when something similar happened in Germany and Sweden.
Eating the rich is inevitable.
Wait, the UK is the one on the brink of civil war? Yeah, that’s dumb even by his standards. Stop reading shitty conspiracy blogs, Elon. If there was a child trafficking cabal you’d already be in it.
Political unrest is how he gets his money!
The most confusing thing is that it’s not! He’s not in the MIC!
Yet.
That was some weird shit
A lot of those on the right are pushing violence and civil war hard as if they are going to capitalize on it. Oligarchs and Nazis have been trying to install their preferred government since the 1930s. They twist the Bible and patriotism into blasphemous perversions to get a desperate and fearful underclass to join in, but they too will end up in the Nazi work camps. People are not taught about the plot to seize the White House in schools because the rich control what is taught in schools. Every person should read about Major General Smedley Butler, the one they wanted to install as dictator and the greatest Marine ever but he is nearly erased from history because he stood up to the rich folks.
If any country is on the brink of civil war, it’s the US.
Can’t wait for my ideology to rise from the irradiated ashes!
LOL elon would retreat to his nuclear defense bunker within a heartbeat of the breakdown of social order
actually probably way before that
