    I dont use or watch it..........so i basicly dont care what happens to twatter...........just the hole story surrounding it(interwebz culture):D

    [​IMG]

    Again dont think Musk is evil(or good), he pushed space/battery/tech faster forward then anyone in the last century......wich is needed imo.

    I like his humour(twitter),i would probabely do the same,just to see what happens(social media). I do think he is going to honour the poll......do hopefully more usefull things lol.

    Something is wrong when Elitist own the Government ( Citizens United), have a tax free existence, own the media, own the Laws, shifted the tax burden on the lower 83 % and have money to have private space races with each other or have money, time and connections to run Teenage Sex Trafficking culture ( Jeffrey Epstein ).

    Musk, is just a spoiled American Oligarch who is living a tax free life and another Elitist grifter .

    He’s genius, but like most geniuses he’s highly unstable. Or on a different orbit. He’s a maxi version in some ways of how people see me. Highly conflicted, smart; a bit toxic and not really a people person. I can’t worship at his altar, but I see a part of myself in him and cant withhold grace without doing the same for myself.

    You know who else should be on trial for the UK’s far-right riots? Elon Musk

    When you willfully and maliciously lie to your 180 million followers on social media, lying to them that a child murderer is a Muslim refugee, and the thousands of the neo-Nazis among them riot and try to burn people alive based upon your lies, yeah; that irrefutably qualifies you as a "villain."
    Fuck Elon Musk!

    Internet Censorship 2024: A Map of Restrictions by Country


    I am going with Elon Musk as a hero.


    But I guess most people have bad memories and forgot the uncensored internet of years past.

    I think they called 2018 the great purge when big tech took down all the anti authoritarian websites left or right.

    The initial frame of reference in the OP is wrong. He's neither genius nor crazy. To try to make him one or the other is in itself nuts.
    Someone's value in life should not just be about what they achieve or what they create. Nor should it be about so-called net worth, when if his companies collapse, how much would he then be worth?
    It's all notional 'paper' worth.

    No, what's a better measure of someone's worth (or value), is what they add to society or do for others.
    No, not electric cars, not space rockets or other tangibles but, society, that invisible thing that binds us or divides us as a nation/planet/species.

    He is clearly on the divisive side of things and for me has absolutely no value or, worse, negative value.
    I was excited by the cars in 2014 and 2015 but, now, after I have seen his own tweets, I am so glad I didn't stretch to buy one.

    Today, anyway, many toms dicks & harrys are building much better cars.
    He wasn't the first to make electric cars happen, either, which means those who worship him, for creating those items, are little more than delusional fanboys.

    Unless and until he would use his influence to try to bring people together (I'm not holding my breath), he's just someone to whom I'd say 'C U Next Tuesday'.
