Renee good was indeed a domestic terrorist who got what she deserved. She wasn't murdered.
i'm as outraged about hoffman's relationship with epstien as you are about howard lutnick's relationship with epstein
and again...one is a financier, the other is a cabinet-level admin official
I agree. But I expect enforcement to continue until a compromise is reached.
You can’t leave the door open and expect no repercussions
I’m all for a bi partisan border bill. We need immigrants, do it so it benefits instead of hinders Americans. It shouldnt be hard, but Trump bad will never let it happen under this administration.
I bet you and I, on opposite ends of the political spectrum, agree on 90% of immigration issues ( non enforcement). But nothing gets done. So in the meantime, the one side has no choice but to try to counteract actions of the other. Extreme policy is met with extreme policy. I don’t blame Trump, sorry.
doesn't that mean the most successful people and job creators see the democrat party as the better option for america moving forward?
He cares so little about what people think of him that he paid someone to play video games for him so he could look like a top tier player.
He tried damn hard to market himself as a cool super genius billionaire too. Once he got too out in the open people saw him for what he was though.
look kid, I was on 4chan in 2006. You cant hurt my feelings.
You and the interviewer live in a small world where you think that your uninformed virtue signalling and name calling matters to rational people outside of your Leftie world.
You don't think its weird he pays women to have his babies?
You don't think its weird he pays people to play video games for him so he can brag that he's good at video games?
He's weird. What are you talking about 'small world'. Maybe the small world is in your head.
What is weird is that you focus on playing video games and the number of his children instead of his role as probably the greatest entrepreneur ever. Major founder of Paypal, Major founder of chatgpt, major founder of Tesla, which now provides a very good self-driving function. His company hired by govt to provide rocket services and you focus on him bragging about his gaming skills. With regard to his children, he believes the West is not having enough babies (many countries are falling behind replacement rate) and he is doing his part to ameliorate the problem, which is logical although debatable.
You on the other hand think you are competent to criticize him as weird (of course, a brilliant person will not be the same as an average one), when your intellect is many levels below his as is the intellects of 99.99% of the people on earth.
He doesn't stay in the lane of being an entrepreneur. He's the one venturing out into the media landscape and becoming a government worker who gutted programs that congress funded while working for the executive branch. Now he owns a large social media platform and he constantly posts pro nationalism things on his platform, thus entering the political arena. You don't get to just say oh why are you criticizing him when he's just an entrepenuer. You are actively running defense for the richest man in the world.
I think im plenty competent to criticize him. I also think my criticisms are valid. He has sold his debt from his AI company to his space travel company. He's hiding his risks by moving them around. The risks never went away.
The only thing making him money is speculation right now. I do think its valid to criticize his IPO and the rewriting of rules of IPO's just to guarantee the funding of his risk with other people's money. Speculation has kept him afloat this past decade.
I have followed musk since 2011. I've invested in his companies. Where you adorn him with flowers, I was there benefitting from his successes. His approach is burning out and will come to a head. He's very powerful, and criticizing him is a healthy thing to do for society.
I don't game any more at all because the games I want to play are basically part time jobs with all of the ******** you have to do to get the best gear. It would be awesome to be able to just jump on for an hour every night and have a fully levelled up and geared out character to do the end game stuff rather than having to grind and farm and it would be great if I could afford to pay some gamer kid a living wage to do it for me.
That said, I absolutely would give credit where it was due.
Just over half of the American public has an "unfavorable" opinion of him. Over half of that is "very unfavorable". So you're saying that if she cited those numbers, you'd have no problem with the question?
I seem to remember a president who was very close to Epstein until the guy tried to snake one of that future president's squeezes. Name escapes me. Maybe the Scrubster knows.
He was not a founder of Tesla.
Which had nothing to do with the issue being discussed. You might as well have said that he took a dump at one p.m. of the day of the interview.
Greatest entrepreneur, with a little help from his friends. Effing welfare queen.

Elon is undoubtedly the greatest innovator and businessman in human history. Despite his historic work in electric vehicles, rockets, etc I would still argue that his greatest achievement was ridding the planet of the cancer that was USAID. I know the people of central and south america are certainly enjoying its absence.

Oh, hallelujah and pass the popcorn! THIS is how you do it! ******* masterclass. Enough of the sphincter kissing. Push back, media of the world. Call these cosplaying narcissistic psychopaths out for the lying clowns they are. Thank you, Zanny Minton Beddoes at @theeconomist

So discuss...
1) How does the public perception of the press as a whole relate in any way to their perception of Musk as a singular person?
2) Had she first pointed out that over half of all Americans have an "unfavorable" opinion of him and over half of that number deem Musk "very unfavorable", would her questions have then been in bounds?
You seem to be actively avoiding discussion.

Lol yeah definitely - he totally doesn't care. That must be why he rage quit in the middle of one of his PoE2 streams because he was getting roasted by viewers last year.
The perception of the press and of the public has virtually nothing to do with merits the of what Musk does. I was mostly criticizing the interviewer and not so much praising musk. I was saying she was asking a stupid lazy question and musk pointed out that whatever his popularity or unpopularity is, hers and most importantly, her business,is not so great either. Simply a waste of time for her to ask such a dumb and rude question. Also, pointing out what a worthless, superficial, putz the interviewer is.

well that plus musk is not the only super rich guy inserting himself into politics///there are many.
I would think that goading Musk like this would only cause him to insert himself deeper into the political world. He could just dump a $100 million or so or heck even $1billion and not even miss it.
I guess it depends on your definition/use of the word authoritarian. Enforcing secure borders means establishing rules and then following those rules. Isn't enforcing to the rules somewhat authoritarian by definition.
I was ok until you fell back to the use of the word "Fascist". I doubt seriously if anyone in the administration directed any ICE officer to "shoot to kill if someone attempts to drive a car in your direction". That was the decision of a single agent.
Now, I'm not ok with killing anybody, citizen or not, and have posted before that from what I saw the agent should not have shot that woman. But that's on him and not some fascist system.
They are flooding the zone with chaos and after a good handful of killings by ICE and no real changes to include body cams I would say this culture was spread from the fascist leaders in this admin.
Except he has absolutely no idea how popular or unpopular the interviewer is. She, however, knows precisely how unpopular he is. So, you seemed to say, that if she had led with the poll results, the question would have been appropriate?
Your criticisms of Musk other than weirdness are fair. The interviewer should have raised them. You had
An investment related thread a week or two ago and I don't remember you saying you invested in Tesla or other Musk companies.(Correct me if I am wrong) So, why don't you tell us what you made from your musk investments and when they were made and how much.
I would add that historically I've not been a big fan of Tesla or electric cars. However, if they become self-driving that is a transformational and extremely effective product which would change my mind.
I got out sometime in the early 2020 to 2021 time frame. I can't remember exactly.
The point I've been making for awhile now is that the Tesla self driving is as good as its going to get. The issue is with the platform itself, it only uses cameras no LiDr. Without LiDr you will continue to see Tesla cyber taxis only in really dry places and geofenced to those areas.
Whats interesting is all the free grace Tesla gets around self driving. Its a cool feature on the highway. But its never going to be a cyber taxi fleet without the LiDr.
Tesla, fell on its face with teh cybertruck, fell on its face with the Semi trucks, fell on its face with the new coup, fell on its face with the 'hyper loop' in Vegas. Its been a series of blunders from the company and the writing was on the wall. Their most profit comes from trading carbon credits, aka government subsidies.
Musk is really good at spending the governments money.
Musk has been playing a shell game with his debt and that will eventually fail. Although the IPO of SpaceX might spread that failure out to his investors.
If Tesla had dropped to 130 dollars in 2024, Musk would have been margin called and wiped out. Im pretty shocked this didn't happen, but I try not to go broke by betting against a hallucinating market.
