You'd imagine the building owners would throw Elon out if he really hasn't been paying rent for months, but I guess when you're rich you can just coast on that and not even pay your bills.

maybe the building owners understand that elon is taking a noble stand for free speech and are willing to cut him some slack in support of The Mission

But I remember the fella who told me. Big lad. Arms as thick as oak trees, a stunning collection of scars, nice eye patch. A REAL therapist he was. Er wait. Maybe it was rapist?

His landlord in London and SF have already sued him. Elon lucked into an optimal financial environment where these landlords need any kind of rent and will probably be more willing to compromise on his office rent. But all this still does take a long time.

*shrugs* can't we all just get along? We have reasonable people on one side of the aisle who just want to exist, and on the other side we have red eyed, bloodthirsty monsters with six inch fangs who want to eviscerate the other side and wrap themselves in their dead bodies. Surely there must be a reasonable compromise that leaves both sides happy?

ironically musk is in a position to actually be a centrist: someone wealthy enough to never have to worry about having their needs met or being exploited in the labour market - he could very well be aloof from politics and call himself a centrist. All he would need to do is to set an example by giving his employees decent job security and conditions and also keep his thoughts on politics to himself.

the fact that he threatens to fire people for union membership, exploits the bajesus out of anyone unfortunate enough to have to work for him and spends seemingly all of his time trying to be internet friends with pathetic proto-nazis shows the world exactly what his politics is

Also, gently caress you Musk, you're the one to talk about someone donating his money to charities when you went and spent $44 billion on a lovely site because you were mad that they were mildly moderating the transphobes.

a billionaire donating to charity means "he must really want it"

when elon himself declined to make his promised donation to end hunger, it must mean he didn't really want it

so why does elon want people to go hungry i wonder?

I don't know why anyone would care about the boss you hate and who hates you repeatedly punching himself in the face thing, but if you really wanted to protect him from himself you could just make a special titter instance for him where chatbots spit out millions of replies and fake likes and mentions about how funny and cool he is.

At least the people working on the rockets and cars are safe from his management during the rich people drug binge all day posting sprees.
