Unpopular Opinion
Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!
How voting works:
Vote the opposite of the norm.
If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.
Guidelines:
Tag your post, if possible (not required)
- If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
- If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].
Rules:
1. NO POLITICS
Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.
2. Be civil.
Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...
Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.
5. No trolling.
This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.
Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

I mean Elon still cried over all the Tesla hate so I will accept that as a win
So fucking desperate to believe the richest man in the world is secretly miserable, it's pathetic. He cries crocodile tears in a scripted interview and you take that as a "win".
He is. The richest man. In the world. Get that through your head. He's not miserable, he's not regretting his choices. He won and is having the time of his life living consequence free. Tesla stock could drop to zero, he could lose Twitter, and you know what? He'd still be the richest man in the world. SpaceX alone guarantees that.
But sure, you go ahead and pretend the man with more money than God, who can take his private jet to his private yacht and relax whenever he wants, is somehow really sad and depressed because one of his multi-billion dollar companies had their stock temporarily go down by a few percentage points. I'm sure that's a great comfort to you as you struggle to pay rent.
Eh calm down champion. You are just self projecting onto other people. I only care about Elon's richness to the extend he fucks the world up with it (which is a lot) otherwise could not careless for his life style. For all that money, he still feels compelled to cheat, fuck it, even hire other people to play for him on online games so that he gets respect from the gaming community lol. He has this constant need and desire to be validated. He pretends like gamers, geeks and nerds are his crowd but in reality most of them hate him and it drives him crazy. He fucking hired a bunch of 19 year olds, not because they are easy scapegoats, it is only because they worship him like god. You can't script that. If you are jealous of that kind of life, good luck with that. Don't assume other people will too.
