I had to look it up. Pajeet is a racial slur in SE Asia, apparently.

You mean S Asia? India isn't exactly east...

Leave it to 4chan to import all the slurs from around the world

[–] Wolf@lemmy.today 25 points 16 hours ago (2 children)

Perhaps even less surprising, this particular racial slur apparently came from 4chan.

Is it actually a slur, or just a stereotypical sounding name? Because if its the second isn't it just like Barry eating his 3rd pie and chips of the afternoon with a pint of wife beater?

Musk learned the hard way why other billionaires don't get directly involved in politics, and buy politicians instead. That way they get what they want, but let the politicians take the heat for pushing through the billionaires agendas.

The problem for Musk is that his ego wouldn't allow him to sit quietly on the sidelines calling the shots. He had to prove how smart he was, and how he was the only one who could fix the government. Now, he's pissed off almost everyone, has lost various large foreign contracts for his companies, drove sales of Tesla into the ground, and is watching Trump undo the "brilliant" governmental cost cutting that he did.

And, his ego still won't let it go, as now he's suggested he'll start his own political party. You just know the other billionaires are looking at him and going "What a dumbass!"

And still some dumb Americans will think:

"Billionnaires got a lot of wealth, so they must know what they're doing. Let them fix it."

When the actual answer is:

"Billionnaires never once worked as much as we did. They got born with a fuckton of money. Let them eat cake."

Somehow nobody has mentioned the drugs? And obvious signs of mental illness? Obviously high functioning, but that does not make the decisions less nuts.

Has anybody seen the Johnny Harris video on musk? It was all fun and games until the drugs came out to play.

Even if he loses hundreds of billions of dollars he's still richer than like 99% of individual people worldwide will ever be.

I will save the schadenfreude for when he pays for the deaths of men, women, and children who were denied care from the USAID funds being cut.

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 8 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

He won't though because although what he did is immoral it wasn't illegal. After all the president of the United States authorised these actions they must be legal.

Financially he's going to suffer but there's nothing in law that can be done to him.

Nobody has done more to disprove the "Rich people are smarter than everyone else" idea.

Remember a decade ago when he was being lauded as our time's Einstein?

........ Hahahahahahaha

[–] alekwithak@lemmy.world 86 points 1 day ago (11 children)

Yeah by his own PR team, mostly, but it was a pretty easy fascade to see through when you actually listened to the man speak. Still don't forgive Dan Harmon for letting him shit on R&M with the eLoN tUsK bullshit. Or Star Trek Discovery for that matter, which happened much later after he had already shown his true face to the world. I know Harmon got paid because he's talked about it, but I would really like to know how much he spent on getting a passing reference in the least popular ST show of all time.

He collected data on all Americans from multiple government agencies, successfully killed multiple investigations into several of his companies, and secured additional government contracts for those companies. Is that what we're calling nothing these days?

[–] SpaceCowboy@lemmy.ca 34 points 22 hours ago (3 children)

And Trump is now threatening to cancel those government contracts. So he's blown everything he's gained (and then some) from his little fling with Trump.

[–] pi3r8@lemmy.world 50 points 22 hours ago (2 children)

That's what trump does. He threatens. Then in the majority of times he gets distracted or backs down. Those contracts aren't cancelled until they are cancelled.

[–] SpaceCowboy@lemmy.ca 20 points 21 hours ago

Yeah he's all TACO when doing things that'll break the economy. But killing SpaceX won't break the economy and he's looking for something he can do that'll make him appear strong. I wouldn't bet either way on this, they're both nutjobs.

Yes, this. It may be drugs, it may be mental disorder, but what it CERTAINLY is is narcissism and megalomania.

Just like every Trump voter who never thought it would happen to THEM when tornado relief was denied or they were deported or their farm was on the brink of financial collapse thanks to tariffs, Musk seems to have thought he was safe? That HE could control Trump? I knew getting these two megalomaniacs together like this would go badly, I'm just impressed it lasted so long honestly.
