I bet getting laid off is pretty stressful.

Normalize Elon hate
I never understood liking Elon.
The cave rescue “pedo” comment was my turning point, like a lot of people.
He’s fucking repulsive. And an example of the worst humanity has to offer.
Trump is older, and has had much more time to establish his credentials as a crumb.
Like any young gun, Elon has to double down to surpass the master.
Back in the day, all I knew about him were these "facts": He invented PayPal, Tesla, and started SpaceX ... Didn't learn the truth until later.
He started beleiving his own PR.
The man has billions, he could retire and live a life of hedonistic bliss unavailable to any human in history.
Instead he chooses to meddle in politics and signal boost the worst portions of humanity.
I can't find any fucks to give.
The Neo-Nazi nepo baby of an emerald mine owner can't get enough hate
Stress can negatively affect one’s lifespan.
Let’s double our efforts.
Fuck Elon Musk.
There are much more effective methods of negatively effecting his lifespan.
Yeah, but some of them are legal and can be performed from the safety of your couch...
-
Safe and legal
-
Effective
Unfortunately we've reached the point where we do actually need to pick just one.
Well go ahead, I wish you luck.
Me? I'm sticking with safe and legal. I lack the skills and resources to have a sliver of a chance at carrying out the other path successfully, let alone walking away from it with my freedom or life intact.
It's weird how often people try to pin it on me personally when I point out that we're relying on a vigilante... it's like calling 911 to report that a building is on fire, and the operator asks why I'm not running into it with a bucket.
Don't get me wrong - I'd love to be the hero of the day here, but I'm under no delusion that that fantasy will amount to anything tangible. Apologies if my previous post gave you any false hope.
If I had his wealth, the world would be a different place and no one would know my name because I'm laying drunk on a beach somewhere. Then again, I'm not pathologically greedy (apathy), so I wouldn't be able to accumulate that all in the first place.
Rich coming from someone whose openly a bigoted troll on and offline
He'd best be happy its just online so far. IRL reckoning isn't so easy to ignore
He can still ignore it. Ignorance is an active thing and if a .308 tears through his head guided by the wroth of Simo Hayha I doubt there'd be enough time for to realize he was shot before he dies.
Nice thought
He should walk about a bit in public, get a sense of the offline hate.
He can stress on these balls
I hope the level of hate grows and moves into offline hate. That shitbag doesn't deserve a single moment of peace. Break him.
I got laid off in September and now I'm about to get fucking evicted lmfao
I feel bad for the world's richest attention seeker.
I wish I could be on a unenjoyment vacation
Don't feel too special Elon. You are just the biggest cancerous tissue but nevertheless you are in the same category
Sounds like he isn't getting nearly enough in person.
The only good bug is a dead bug!

I love this acronym
As if he doesn’t also have millions of hollow-brained adoring money-worshipping fans who think he’s the best thing since the third reich. That should balance out the hate.
I used to get death threats online pretty regularly. It definitely doesn't balance out. That said, Musk has earned this. I'm not going to feel sad about a guy doing a fascist coup having his feelings hurt when people don't like it
I work in gender affirming care that includes pediatric populations and have my services listed online for referrals. It’s not super common to be fair but every once in a while I get an email or voicemail that’s like “you’re a child abuser and you should die” or some shit. It’s why I specifically say voicemail; I don’t answer calls to my business phone bc of this. Everything gets screened and I call back. Thankfully it’s infrequent and this has been enough to ensure I never have to engage with these people.
You’re absolutely right though. I’ve posted about my work before and people will sometimes be like “thank you for doing what you do”. I appreciate that, and those comments outnumber these threats, which again are not very common, but they stick out. Even the ones that don’t wish me dead. Once I got an email that just said “f*g enabler”. I don’t know why I remember that. It was years ago.
It’s the knowledge that someone out there absolutely hates you and wants you to die without knowing anything (really) about who you are, I think.
The really sad part of this is that this is a core part of the minority stress model; that feeling constant oppression from the world around you is noxious and has measurable consequences on physical and mental health. If he and his dumb racist, sexist, transphobic, homophobic, etc cronies reflected on their experience and practiced empathy for even a moment they would realize that this stress is something experienced almost constantly by someone on their hit list, because of them.
Edit: while I appreciate the positivity I genuinely didn’t mean for this to be a “please give me positive support” thing. I dunno I always feel awkward posting about this because it’s like I’m fishing for compliments at the expense of one of the most marginalized communities out there. You don’t need to thank me, though I do appreciate it quite a bit
Thank you immensely for doing what you do, and for persevering through the difficult parts while doing it. You're exactly the kind of hero we need more of. I'm sorry there are still so many terrible people.
if he's still around, it's not as stressful as it needs to be.
Just look at how he looks. It's not just drugs, I think the stuff does add up.
