This week it was reported that he gave nearly 40K to GOP Super Pacs: Full Story Proven allegations that he is...denying?
Which is certainly a bad look for a union-stomper like him, but The Thai Cave Rescue is where he's really letting his idiot flag fly.
For reference here's some footage of the cave itself:
Here's his 'kid sized submarine':
of course the thing was never used and British rescue worker Vern Unsworth had some words for Musk about it being a PR stunt:
To which Elon responded by saying he will prove his oversized do-whacky was a viable solution and calling Vern Unsworth a pedophile:
and of course the double-down.

By Shanks D Zoro Go To PostSo that Thai diver who died must have been an idiot because it was so easy to get in.whoa der
not 1:1
their timelines were never on the same page anyways. also, acceptable risk for military isn't anywhere close to what's acceptable risk elsewhere. collaboration was basically impossible in the first place
definitely a PR stunt tho (like him saying he'll save flint michigan lol)

Musk is implying that the whole thing was not as dangerous as it was made out.
I know Musk arrived later, so the conditions were not the same as when the guy died, but it seems pretty insulting to me.
By Shanks D Zoro Go To PostMusk is implying that the whole thing was not as dangerous as it was made out.if people want to entertain drilling through a fucking mountain from the top then i'm honestly okay with him spitballing it too
I know Musk arrived later, so the conditions were not the same as when the guy died, but it seems pretty insulting to me.
but really he just sounds like just about every other rich mofo or group of rich mofos talking about saving lives lol. problem with musk is people keep trying to humanize him as this people's champ of tech and innovation. not everyone is bill gates yal.
and shit, maybe it wasn't as dangerous. fuck if i know but when it comes to technical shit -with no timeline- i'll go with the guy who's got a space car. that's not pissing on someone's grave. militaries and immediate disaster relief bros get shit done and adapt their playbook to the most drastic of circumstances.
By reilo Go To PostI called this over a year ago.better than the cult of apple
But the Cult of Musk is crazy.
Just because Musk is a genius doesn't mean he knows what he is talking about here. Guy saw a tiny bit of the cave.
Military and non-military guys risked their lives, but Musk don't give a fuck about that.
That drilling idea was just as dump, I am surprised the team of Oak Island didn't go over.

I wouldn't trust the guy who pumped hundreds of millions into an automated car production line that failed so horribly that he's resorted to manufacturing cars under a Air-Condition-less, Sprinkler-system-less tent. Certainly not with my life.
By Shanks D Zoro Go To PostJust because Musk is a genius doesn't mean he knows what he is talking about here. Guy saw a tiny bit of the cave.you make it sound like he was at a congressional hearing not giving a fuck about directly risking military lives

dude wants to spitball let him. everything worked out but when drilling through a mountain is something people actually took to a drawing board then like.... yeah

if you can't trust zuck or steve jobs then why on earth is musk a folk hero
By DY_nasty Go To Postif you can't trust zuck or steve jobs then why on earth is musk a folk hero
He got a lot of good will trying to make electric cars affordable, that's pretty admirable.
I drove a Model S last month and the acceleration is unreal, the handling is buns but the tech is really impressive in action.
By DY_nasty Go To Postbetter than the cult of appleTim Cook is a legit awesome dude and one of the few openly gay CEOs in the world that actually practices what he preaches. You don't see him out there sacrificing children to the petty gawd.
Elon Musk is just a giant libertarian cunt that got to the market first and wants to cash out before Porsche and the other big Germans bury Tesla in the next two years.

You know damn well Musk was hoping those kids would've died so he could come out and claimed his submarine would've saved them had they only listened to him. He's just pissed they succeeded.

lol wow what a weekend you must be having
By DY_nasty Go To PostHoping for kids to dieClearly better than yours if you got nothing better to do than be the resident Musk Defense Force.
lol wow what a weekend you must be having
I don't think anybody should think Musk is some kind of messiah OR some kind of devil. He's just a man.
On the one hand, he's going to be responsible for making electric cars mainstream, which is very damned important. And the stuff he's doing with reusable rockets is absolute tits.
On the other hand, the guy's an enormously self-centered douche with a god complex. And his ideas for "public" transportation read like a Snowpiercer prequel.
Even if you're a libertarian, his current business model is basically the villain from Atlas Shrugged, so there's that, too.
Disagree with reilo on him getting killed by Mercedes, Porsche and the like (even if the i-Pace is way more desirable to me than any Tesla.) He's got a cult of Tesla tech bros to market to and they're not going anywhere as a boutique manufacturer.

You can also not call people derogatory shit man.
I'm still not getting how you prop up apple in the same breath 😂 these dudes don't love anybody.
Out here running fanfics on someone hoping kids die to make a point and want to flip shit around lol if you don't get out your feelings

Crazy billionaire who desperately wants to keep up his good guy image while also still being a billionaire who wouldn't be caught dead going against the superPACs who allow him to be a billionaire.
Surprise

By DY_nasty Go To PostI'm not defending him lol. He's a dick who puts shit in space.You brought Apple up and naturally I compared Tim Cook to him wtf. If you think Musk and Cook are on the same level then you're wild.

Also the "but whatabout" shtick is fucking tiring as a counter.
Is it not widly known that Teslas are poorly built?
He may not survive with zero competition let alone having to compete with actual car manufacturers.

You know well damn better than anyone that I fought and lost my job to people like this, so how can you not see that I won't give in to their bullshit because "that's the way it is?"
By s y Go To Postmy goodness Bill looks twice his age.that tends to happen when you're trying to save people instead of parading around in your turtleneck and jeans, killing goats for blood sacrifices and taking credit for engineers who don't see their family for 5 years to turn your music library into a small box that can make calls

you're a good one dy

Maybe you should stop expecting so much from people in general
"Give into their bullshit" listen to how you sound right now. Stop trying to love and trust images so much and maybe you wouldn't be feeling so betrayed all the time
By DY_nasty Go To Postyeah you on some shitWhat? Your reading is way off and I don't even know what you're arguing anymore.

going from 'he wanted kids to die' to 'this is why things happened to me'
this shit doing numbers on you right now
i don't even know why people pay attention to Musk and get as pissy about him as they do or pretend his shit don't stink. He's just another egotistical asshole. Somewhere along the line though he got some kind of cult following and also folks obsessed with seeing him fail. I think it's another one of those nerdy trips where people are more mad at themselves for ever thinking he was anything than another CEO trying to cultivate a market less hostile to his product and make money. They were shocked he went onto that Trump group desperately trying to convince themselves he was just trying to do good, and then his anti union labor shit was made bare if it wasn't already kind of known and now he donates to GOP. No shit.
