It's refreshing to see a major publication just flatly stating that he's a fascist.

[-] Geetnerd@lemmy.world 60 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Well, his parents are genuine, Bona Fide Nazis who wanted to move to apartheid South Africa from Canada.

Edit: It was his grandparents, my mistake.

"Oh no! The consequences of my actions!"

Nah fuck this guy. We need to make Nazis unforgivable again. None of this halfway bullshit or trying to see their side of the story.

[-] superkret@feddit.org 46 points 1 week ago

He will never feel any external consequences.
Best we can hope for is a bout of depression that'll make him do something we all won't regret.

[-] TommySoda@lemmy.world 40 points 1 week ago

I want him to lose it so badly that he starts blaming this administration for everything that happened to him and starts going off against them. That'd be hilarious.

fuck you fascist musk and the rest of the facist class trators that need to be shredded in a woodchipper then eaten by pigs.

Fuck Elon but also fuck eastern civilization just as much as western, because humans all over the earth are shit, and no one should side with anyone of these authoritarian cunts

[-] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 32 points 1 week ago

Why are you being downvoted? Bad people can exist everywhere. Putin is a world leader in the east. Putin is a huge piece of shit.

Or does everyone else need me to give you all a history lession on evil leaders from all over the world?

[-] blakenong@lemmings.world 37 points 1 week ago

Because lemmy is full of anti-west fake communists who think China is great because they know nothing about China. The world is fucking shit, and east or west doesn’t matter.

Psycho rulers are bad. China, England, USA, Russia, North Korea, Iran. They’re all the same. All anti-human, self centered fuckwads.

these contrived reports of him quitting politics or being depressed to try to get some sympathy and stop the stock selling are pathetic. He's never cared about anyone else, even his own children, and he still absolutely does not. He's a spoiled psycopath who thinks he can manipulate people.

he's depressed because as a millionaire he made slightly less money

i'm depressed because i'm queer and autistic and a rich evil fuck in government is killing queer helplines and putting autistic people on kill lists.

we are not the same

To be fair, he did make a prediction before the election that the DOGE cuts will cause some financial pain.

Maybe he should kill himself.

There's not really any news in that article.

Notably, Musk said he would be stepping back from DOGE after May but didn’t go into any detail about what that would mean. Even though he said he would be easing up on his involvement, the billionaire said that he would remain in the government through President Trump’s entire term,

This is meaningless.

[-] randon31415@lemmy.world 19 points 1 week ago

stepping back from DOGE after May

Appointed temporary government employee which means he only could work until June without congressional approval. Set this up from the start to take heat off of Trump and allow Trump to seem reasonable compared to Musk when Trump 'fires' him in June.

Are you sure this one fits in? Why, of all the communities, choose this one specifically?

Because Elon being made miserable is something that most other people would consider to be uplifting - I know it certainly made me happier to read it

I hate the schadenfreude journalism. I will never meet this guy, I don't care how he feels any more than some random South Dakotan. The reason he's relevant is his outsized impact on government and the country, tell me about that.

You are a piece of shit and now everyone in the entire world knows it. There's no coming back.

With all that money and influence you had the chance to make a real difference but instead you decided to be a greedy disgusting fuck.

No one gives a shit about you. Go to Mars and live out your pathetic existence.

He got what he wanted. He wants to bow out before the blowback. Do not trust anything this fascist says.

[-] ExtantHuman@lemm.ee 20 points 1 week ago

Good. He's actively making the world a worse place for everyone else. He should feel bad.
