Elon Musk, the world’s richest man and ~~father~~ sperm donor of 14

He doesn't actually do any fucking fathering at all, so fixed that for you, VNExpress.

I mean that's pretty much confirmed considering a lot of the children are twins or triplets. That's usually the case when doing IVF because the medication they give women will make them release multiple eggs so twins, triplets and so on are more common than in traditional pregnancies.

I mean I guess my point wasn't so much about him using IVF as it was that he isn't actually a father figure to any of these children. So it's unfair to call him a "father." He could be fucking out these babies manually and if he still had so little to do with almost all of their lives I would still hold the same opinion that he's a sperm donor, not a father.

Who looks at this ugly af man and thinks "I want his genes inside my children"?

[-] pennomi@lemmy.world 18 points 1 day ago

It’s the money, not the genes, that are attractive.

[-] bassomitron@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago

That's seriously my confusion. It's not like the genes will magically result in the child coming out a billionaire. The dude is not handsome/attractive and doesn't really convey any high degree of intelligence. If anything, I'd be worried the kid would be predispositioned towards substance abuse.

There is a whole ass propaganda campaign that makes people think Musk is some kind of super genius. Lots of people aren’t educated enough to see through it. I consider myself pretty media literate but I was still fooled by it for a little while.

It's literally this comic from The Onion. Musk's entire life is an insane parody. What the actual fuck.

When the walls come crumbling down, there will be no place for his seed to hide. He will not be Ghangis Khan

The more they go on the stupider the names get. It's impressive.

It's weird to think I pine for simpler times when we all made fun of Gwyneth Paltrow for naming her kid "Apple." I didn't even imagine that rich kid baby names would get so absolutely unhinged.

If the wealthiest man on Earth wants shitloads of offspring and there aren't 100,000 women lining up, jesus, what does that say about the man?!

I've talked to a few young women who treated the father like a sperm donor because they wanted kids. It wasn't as cold-blooded a calculation as it sounds, but yeah, they didn't give much a fuck about who the father was, just felt that bio clock running out. Didn't know that was a thing until I was much older.

Why should anyone care.

[-] ieatpwns@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Ngl if I were the richest man and I couldn’t get any play I would be tiiiiiiight. But I wouldn’t fucking just tell people “hey sperms free”

fuckin loser

[-] BubblyRomeo@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago
