I like Elon musk (bring me your down votes).He may be billionaire or drag queen or whatever but he does what he wants even beyond loosing everything, he doesn’t give a fuck . Somehow he is authentic. Other billionaires are like rats fearing not loosing a single penny . Electric cars? I love them. Rockets , I played with them when I was kid. A shitty truck ? Yeah I will do it. Buying shit twitter and make my own, yeah why not. I know there are people and countries that are struggling to get food and this guy is doing that, but considering the shitload of extreme and irrational capitalism, have to highlight at least this.
All the childish stuff he does aside, if that wasn't enough, my problem with him is that he's actively promoting fascist and undermining the working class.
This mother fucker has all the money in the world and he's not content to do the kid dream stuff you describe, he's actively helping fascist spread misinformation and is actively fighting against good wages and conditions for the working class.
So yea, fuck Elon and pretty much all of the rest of the billionaires.
Being on the right side of the political spectrum doesn’t mean you’re fascist just like being on the left side doesn’t mean you’re communist.
This is true, but Elon is actively helping facism. He actively supports fascism. Why did he compared a Jewish Billionaire to some Jewish comic villain? Why does he Actively support the AfD(German extreme Right wing party(that wants to deportate "foreigners" to some African state))? There are more examples, but this are the two I immediately thougjt of.
Big example- the "free speech absolutist" does any sort of censorship and banning Modi's fascist Indian government requests.
