I don't know how anyone listens to Elon talk for more than 2 minutes without going "oh my god" and turning it off and going for a walk and never thinking about this guy ever again.

How the gently caress is he ultra rich?

He has zero problems lying even if it gets people killed.

The dude has no morals and access to money, why wouldn’t he get ultra rich?

"Centrist" is just another word for fascist, which itself is just another word for far right. Centrism is not at all what the word implies

From Destiny to Elon to Jirard "The Completionist", it doesn't matter how badly they gently caress up or look to have committed fraud; there's going to be some white knight on the internet telling us not to believe our lying eyes.

This is what pisses me off about January 6th denialists who insist that the insurrection was simply a peaceful protest. gently caress you, motherfucker. I watched it happen live. That was a loving riot, and a really bad one at that. I was horrified. People clearly had murderous intent. Ashli Babbitt is not a martyr, she was a loving terrorist who deserved what she got. That cop showed incredible restraint before he shot her, considering the situation and the extreme danger that he and the people he was tasked with protecting were facing. gently caress her and anyone who defends her or what she did.

These fuckers are continually telling us not to believe our lying eyes and that we didn't actually see what we saw. It completely infuriates me.

Just FYI it's the Democratic party. "Democrat party" is a pejorative invented by Trump and perpetuated by MAGA to imply that Democrats aren't actually democratic.

No the gently caress it wasn't invented by Trump. They've been saying Democrat party since at least fuckin Newt Gingrich and I'm pretty sure earlier than that

He plays them until he hits a wall and then condemns the game as Terrible, The Worst

See his bipolar relationship with Diablo 4 and whatever that mobile game was. Also I fully believe his dislike of GTA is based entirely around how much people like it

he hates GTA6(which isnt even out yet) because antman and other regressive beta losers think its woke because the trailer had a FEMALE(and non whites?)

also killing digital cops is bad in your criminal sim game.

I watched the whole interview. It think Musk knows it went poorly.

Lemon questions Musk about seemingly supporting the racist Great Replacement theory. Musk gets increasingly irritated and ultimately refuses to answer: "I don't have to answer questions from reporters." (around 00:30:00)

Lemon shows Musk several racist X posts. They discuss content moderation. Musk argues X only takes down illegal content. Musk argues taking down content where a takedown was not required by law would be censorship. If people wanted the law changed, they should try to achieve that through democratic processes. (around 00:35:00)

They discuss Musk's public claims that DEI initiatives lead to a lowering of standards for pilots or doctors and are thus endangering lives. Lemon presses Musk to substantiate his claims. Musk retorts that people on X will provide evidence his claims are substantiated. Lemon makes the point that Musk, as a massively influential person, has an obligation to check the facts himself before he makes public claims. (around 00:42:00)

Musk about people pointing out systemic racism: "I think we should not make this a constant subject. I think we need to move on." Lemon asks: "You don't agree that this country was founded on racism and founded on slavery and, in many ways, inequities that still continue on to this day?" Musk replies: "[...] I think we want to look the future rather than the past. Instead of engaging in constant rehashing of the past... because... in fact, if you look at history, broadly, everyone was a slave. Everyone." (around 00:44:00)

Lemon talks about studies that indicate more diverse companies are more innovative and profitable. When asked to comment on this, Musk avoids an answer. (around 00:50:00)

A bit further on, Lemon asks Musk: "Do you have any desire to understand what many people of color and even trans people, how they feel about this country and how they are treated in this country, if they say they believe they are treated a certain way in this country, why don't you believe them?" Musk slaps this down with: "You cannot have a situation where someone is a self-described victim and they just get to be that because that's how they feel." (around 00:56:00)

man i would love to have a live feed of the green room or whatever where musk ended up after that interview. although i guess hes dumb enough to think he did a great job so maybe it would just be him congratulation himself

That particular bit was especially dumb. We don't necessarily want laws totally banning hate speech because that can be a total clusterfuck of abuse and enforcement by the government. But we do want public spaces where we really don't have to entertain bigots spouting their garbage to an audience of millions. The idea is to create a society that's better than the bare minimum enforced by the government at gunpoint. Getting your account suspended for posting slurs isn't, and shouldn't be, comparable to getting thrown into jail for saying them

hes like every other rich moron that never went to college and was born wealthy. they think theyre right about everything and have zero interest in understanding why things are the way they area and what attempts have been made to change said things in the past. he doesnt care why an abused person thinks theyre abused if that person isnt someone he thinks deserves sympathy. everything is framed from his perspective, empathy is an impossibility

its of course all the more terrifying with someone that is obsessed with breeding.
