Elon is a pedo as well. Look at how much he throws that accusation around at others when he’s mad, it’s clearly projection

This was my instinct with that submarine fiasco. Calls a man he's never seen or talked to a pedophile? First thing? Gotta be a reason that word was in his mind.

I think Musk is just stupid and dishonest. And a kind of empty, inside. He reaches for words that he thinks will have the effect he wants without caring about their meaning. He knows "pedo" is near universally reviled, so that's the word that came out. If it was 1980, he probably would have called the man gay.

He also told in himself, stating "there's only one reason men go to Southeast Asia", while having flight records of himself visiting Thailand. He's a pedo.

It's OK to call Musk a Pedo, because that's apparently a common expression in South Africa.

At least that's the excuse he used when he called it to the cave diver who made him look a twat by actually rescuing children, rather than posturing with a robot that wouldn't fit in the cave.

Literally nothing would surprise me about him. Well, nothing bad.

Have you seem pictures of Grimes from when they were together? Yes she is old enough, but the way she looks, and the way some of the other women he had dated look, he definitely has a "type".

Pedos helping other pedos get elected.

PHOPGE? You could wear that on a red hat.

[–] BestBouclettes@jlai.lu 22 points 3 days ago

Yeah but now it affects him directly, so it's completely outrageous!

[–] Inucune@lemmy.world 10 points 3 days ago

And the numerous felonies and other pending charges, to say nothing of the bile exiting his mouth, didn't matter why?

[–] LordWiggle@lemmy.world 14 points 3 days ago

Well, a normal person wouldn't but a rapist would. And Elon happens to be one.

[–] Pnut@lemm.ee 9 points 3 days ago

His only reason for being president is keeping his head above water until he dies. Having lived free from the punishment of his many, obvious crimes.

[–] Lodespawn@aussie.zone 15 points 3 days ago

Well TBF Elons head is permanently up his own arse so maybe news takes a while to get there ..

[–] xav@programming.dev 9 points 3 days ago

Perhaps excepted if you are also on the list.

[–] theuniqueone@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 3 days ago

What if it potentially benefited you financially and led you to gain more power though? Nobody is perfect and everyone forced to live in society must look out for their own self interest first surely you don't begrudge Musk that? /s

I'm pretty sure all voters knew. This shit ain't new. Lol

[–] Matriks404@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

For a lot of people it's a plus apparently.
