It would be so funny if he decided to deport Elon back to South Africa for that.

I wonder if social media existed in the early 1900s if fascists would be having this much fucking drama back then.

AFAIK there was all this drama, it was just on newspapers and pamphlets.

[–] DragonBallZinn@hexbear.net 49 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Ah great, now Dems are all too ready to be “Musk Republicans” because that’s all dems are: just the opposing side in any given Republican civil war.

Elon is the new John McCain

[–] Kieselguhr@hexbear.net 35 points 1 month ago (3 children)

I remember a reddit-logo lib seething at me when I called John McCain a war criminal (when he was clearly involved in bombing North Vietnam), demanding proof that John McCain himself personally have ever dropped bombs on civilians

[–] rufuscrispo@hexbear.net 34 points 1 month ago

i too am skeptical of this. after all, mccain would have to keep a plane in the air to drop a bomb

[–] Adkml@hexbear.net 20 points 1 month ago (1 children)

My favorite is when they ask for proof he was racist and you show them the quote where he says "I hate the slurs and probablly will until the day i die" and then they get really mad and say that doesn't count he's allowed to think that since they tortured him. (Torturing him for firebombing entire villages of innocent people was deffinitly not ok, but him being racist as a result is)

[–] egg1918@hexbear.net 19 points 1 month ago

And they didn't torture him anyway, he was just a lying piece of shit

[–] prole@hexbear.net 17 points 1 month ago (1 children)

He was a prisoner of war so clearly a criminal otherwise why would he be in prison??

"My poor 31-year-old baby boy got kidnapped from his Douglas A-4 Skyhawk when he was dropping bombs on people on the other side of the world"

Dems plans to stop Donald Trump:

Hope lifelong republican three letter agency people will stop him for them (Comey, Meuller, Garland)

Hope republican Senators will stop him for them (voting tonconvict on impeachments)

Hope powerless republicans will stop him (Bush, Cheyney, soon to be Musk)

Hope republicans suddenly stop being republicans (appeal to the mythical moderate republican)

They literally don't even pretend to act like they're doing something just listing other people that they think should do it for them.

uhh if you like investing i guess buy Rocketlab stock NOW because lol (i am not a financial advisor and would frankly kill myself if i were. i do not have any money to buy stocks or options anyways so take what i say with like a teaspoon of salt)

Nationalization of SpaceX when? because that'd be kind of hilarious.

[–] abc@hexbear.net 33 points 1 month ago (2 children)

actually yes he should fold SpaceX into NASA that would be funny and probably the ideal solution if you like space exploration (yes I'LL SAY IT. I DO)

[–] PolandIsAStateOfMind@lemmygrad.ml 11 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I like space exploration but hate US grubby fingers anywhere in space (or on Earth too for that matter) so i hope every semblance of US space program ever will crash and burn.

Nice chip at Obama's legacy, too

[–] TrustedFeline@hexbear.net 28 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It's so fucking frustrating to see Elon go after the lowest hanging fruit that the dems should've been yelling from the rooftops for years. Call him a pedo. Implicate him in the "suicide". 2024 landslide.

[–] Ram_The_Manparts@hexbear.net 8 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

But that would also implicate their own close personal friends of Epstein, like the Clintons

Can't do that hillary-assassin

[–] Riffraffintheroom@hexbear.net 27 points 1 month ago (1 children)

This could be real or this could be a bit that lets Trump keep the party going with the hundreds of thousands of public sector maga hogs that musk shitcanned.

[–] cream_provider@hexbear.net 22 points 1 month ago

Yeah it’s kayfabe. Musk gets to distance himself from maga too which helps him with Telsa. Everyone wins.

[–] Hohsia@hexbear.net 24 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I know multiple people who are likely now Elon stans

That’s what I get for joining the local democrats and deluding myself into thinking I could find an actual leftist somewhere there

If only that Tesla had erupted into a towering inferno and taken both of them.

Then they could have died thinking they were still in love, like 2 serial cheaters clutching each other in the back row of United 93 swearing eternal loyalty to their relationship as the Pentagon becomes visible on the horizon.

They were robbed of their Romeo & Juliet ending.

Let me unblock elllon to see what he's yapping about. I want them fist fighting in the white house by end of the month

[–] NephewAlphaBravo@hexbear.net 15 points 1 month ago (1 children)

god, that's like the one fistfight I think trump would actually win

[–] Adkml@hexbear.net 9 points 1 month ago

They talk shit for 45 minutes before limply punching themselves in the dick and declaring themselves the winner.

[–] pumpchilienthusiast@hexbear.net 8 points 1 month ago

buddy at this rate they will be dueling by the end of the day

I could see this as a springboard for Thiel coup. JD is ready! Give him a shot!

[–] Adkml@hexbear.net 8 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (2 children)

How's Theil feel about Musk? I'd think a demented catty Broadway enthusiast who just wants to golf and ride around on planes would be a safer bet than a ketamine addled eugenecist who everybody hates within a week of meeting him.

Plus no way magats turn on Trump, pretty sure Elon and Rudy or Bannon are gonna be in similar situations soon.

[–] Crucible@hexbear.net 7 points 1 month ago

Maybe things have changed but Thiel used to pretty openly hate Musk. They fought over ownership of Paypal and Thiel talking shit about him is how I know Musk wanted to rename Paypal to X.com as well

[–] jack@hexbear.net 5 points 1 month ago

Plus no way magats turn on Trump

Yeah, everyone concerned about a Vance coup is missing that Trump personally is the critical piece holding together sufficient popular support to keep the whole facade from crumbling. If he was seen to be removed by a tech billionaire, his base would become religiously apoplectic.

There's people who ripped out their "I bought the Tesla before Musk went crazy" stickers but fucked up so part of the sticker is still on their Tesla.
