He thinks saying, I am cisgendered, is hate speech.

He literally wrote other- isms ... Criticism, I guess. He is an idiot.

The fuck is he on ~~about~~?

[–] dustyData@lemmy.world 58 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (2 children)

Money. Too much of it. We should help him, take away most of that money. That'll cure him.

[–] Kowowow@lemmy.ca 25 points 2 years ago (3 children)

I heard he has a love of ketamine

It seems he is trying to get rid of his money as fast as possible. I suggest he send me $2 billion to start so I can offload it asap. I would be his most valuable liability.

He gets high from huffing his own farts.

Things he knows nothing the fuck about. As per usual.

Yeah so somebody grew up in a racist household that prioritized Protestant ideals about work and success. And then that person moved to Silicon Valley with Daddy's money and worked there during its bommiest years. Then went on to pump money into electric cars and rockets.

This all came to a screeching halt during Covid when all of a sudden, he had to not prioritize profits and success but rather the health and safety of his employees and others.

This sent him down a rabbit hole on Twitter where suddenly he felt accepted by all the Trump crowd. Now he's stuck there and slides further right each day.

This guy is now the wealthiest person on the planet.

Fuck Elon.

Perfect summary

I genuinely can't tell if the comic was added by somebody else to mock Musk's tweet, or if Musk is such a narcissistic prick with zero self awareness that he ""ironically" added this comic as part of his fellow-kids memelord act.

Truth is stranger than fiction.

[–] Octopus1348@lemy.lol 94 points 2 years ago

I checked, it was added to mock musk.

[–] GoodEye8@lemm.ee 37 points 2 years ago (2 children)

There's a simple litmus test. Musk would never joke about himself in a self-deprecating way, in any capacity. He has such a fragile ego it would break if someone farted in his general direction.

Just when I think I couldn't hate him anymore, he omits the Oxford comma...

Did you just grammerism him?

War is peace.

Freedom is slavery.

Ignorance is strength.

[–] pachrist@lemmy.world 16 points 2 years ago (9 children)

For real. Diversity could easily be considered antithetical to racism. Inclusion could be considered antithetical to sexism. But no, Chef Elon made pseudo-intellectual word salad.

But, "Worlds grossly richest man not big on equity" feels like an Onion article title.

[–] samus12345@lemmy.world 13 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (2 children)

Also, "woke" more or less means "enlightened," so "anti-woke" is pretty much "ignorance is strength."

[–] pachrist@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I feel like wokeness in general requires empathy and understanding of the plight of others. Anti-woke means being unempathetic, and folks feel that is positive? I literally can't comprehend being for Team Sociopath, but millions of people will vote for Trump, so it's real.

When you remember he got his starting wealth from an apartheid emerald mine in South Africa, this behavior makes perfect sense.

[–] li10@lemmy.ml 43 points 2 years ago

I’m generally sick of hearing about Elon at all even if it’s criticizing him, but this was a good one.

The vanity is off the charts.

[–] ICastFist@programming.dev 42 points 2 years ago (1 children)

When you make fun or point out the obvious flaws of the oppressor, it's not "-ism", it's freedom

[–] 7heo@lemmy.ml 9 points 2 years ago

They would not even understand, they practice narciss-ism even more often than rac-ism.

Also, talking about inclusivity, this is a (probably not fully exhaustive) list of all the "-ism"s. That is how much of an ignorant cretin people using this neologism are.

[–] PunnyName@lemmy.world 33 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Sadly, a professor I used to respect is following similar bullshit ideologies. Climate denialism, veiled racism, and bigotry. Once he moved out of California into a much more red area, he plummeted.

[–] cashews_best_nut@lemmy.world 29 points 2 years ago (6 children)

When I was younger I assumed I was surrounded by differing opinions. Now it feels more like I'm surrounded by idiots.

It's not racism when you, a single person, are hated. Its people telling the truth about you.

[–] CADmonkey@lemmy.world 28 points 2 years ago

I'm reminded of Bender:

"This isn't even about you"

"That's impossible!"

Bet a board member tried to explain to him what DEI is two minutes before he Xat this Xeet.

Muskrat’s diversity plan is “exploit Indians who rely on Xitter visa sponsorship”

[–] name_NULL111653@pawb.social 11 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I propose an alternative nominative singular: Xit. He Xat this Xit on Xitter...

I am very confused. Is that a comic he had made about himself? I wouldn't be entirely surprised...

[–] open_world@lemmy.world 15 points 2 years ago

Yeah, I wish this post was presented more clearly.

[–] dudinax@programming.dev 17 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

He's ok with racism and sexism, so dei is good, right?

Can't stop thinking about the guy that replies to every one of his posts, asking to have lunch with him and give him a job.

Dude's been doing that shit for years.
