Musk’s entire job is to keep the media focused on him and his stupidity so that we aren’t paying attention to what his useful orange idiot is doing.
That is an excellent point. The only snag is that I feel they aren’t quite intelligent enough to think of that. Then again, maybe that’s what they want us to think…
His mum could have pulled it off in a heartbeat. He would be lucky to make it out of Buckingham…
Clearly the king should just ignore this nonsense …… and ban him from travelling there. Preferably the entire commonwealth. Wait. I’ll make popcorn
Elon gets involved in things he doesn’t need to.
Let’s have a LONDON TEslA PARTY and throw all the cars overboard.
My sanity isn’t ready for an reality where Elon fucking Musk is fucking shit up globally. Trump was bad enough, but this shit? This is what will eventually cause a global conflict against fucking fascists of all things.
We already did this shit once, are we really going to do it again?
sounds like the old man didn’t learn his lesson the first time.
He most certainly did not.
Sounds like terrorism
When you’re rich it’s just called a suggestion not terrorism
When Musk controls the western world, Putin will invite him to the 23 floor for a cup of tea.
Wow it’s almost like he wants to destabilize the western world! How peculiar. 🤔
Concerning
He managed to buy the American presidency so why not aim for more?
At least he’s not smart about it and just yells it all in public. If he ever realizes he can do it quietly it’ll be an even bigger problem.
That’s the thing I don’t get. Trump got the presidency, he can just carry Elon aside like a burger wrapper
Are you under the impression that Trump actually has a lot of money? You don’t get rich by bankrupting businesses, and he’s done a lot of that.
He certainly doesn’t have enough to maintain the lifestyle that he’s grown to love.
He’s got bribes from all mayor tech companies willing to get in his favor. He doesn’t need any more money. He can order the mint to print him a stack.
He’s got immunity. He can litarally rob a bank and claim his presidential immunity. Hell he can kill Elon and steal his stuff LEGALLY
!!
When I was younger, my sister teased and provoked me (I mean she still does but much less). Every time this happened, my parents told me to just ignore her. I think media should do the same when it comes to Elon Musk, since damn, everyone who doesn’t willingly choose ignorance already sees who he is. By this you are just giving him more exposure.
That’s not how it works—actually, that’s not how anything works. It’s not about doing the right thing; it’s all about what drives the most attention, clicks, or money.
There’s a reason every media outlet reports on every little thing the fat guy or this bozo does or says. There’s a reason you didn’t ignore this news and felt compelled to comment on it.
It’s the same reason 99% of these commenters have no idea who someone like Demis Hassabis is, was or will be: it doesn’t drive attention.
It’s hard to say what the responsible and ethical approach is for journalists given it is newsworthy that the richest man in the world (who is also extremely influential to the highest office of the most influential country of the world) is encouraging such an extreme and unexpected regime change, but also Musk, like Trump, puts out so much noise it’s hard to predict what will actually be policy they persue vs what is just noise
He’s not he-who-shall-not-be-named. Talking about him won’t make him more powerful.
But it does. His whole power is his ability to stir the conversation.
musk getting guillotined is something i would like to watch in the near future :)
There’s still time for SpaceX to do the right thing and load him in the next starship launch next week
I say strap him to the outside before they launch instead of putting him inside, preferably against the heat shield.
It’s important to get empirical evidence of what happens if you strap a man to a rocket. Theoreticals are nice, but hard data is what makes science progress.
Indeed, launch Leon’s ass to Mars. He can take Putin’s Sock Puppet with him and sell Tesla’s.
Just like the end of Gravity’s Rainbow.
Or the beginning of Planet Hulk.
Thats one way to attract the attention of Mi6. He certainly fits the bond villain profile…
MI6, if you can read this, please do it.
Except that Bond Villains are usually clever and invent something themselves. This dipshit is like the Bond Villain we have at home, from a rejected script that someone keeps failing to salvage.
You think Bond villains weren’t taking credit for their underlings inventions? What a high opinion you have of evil people.
This guy evils.
It’s not like Hank thought of the hammocks, but you know he took credit for the work it got him.
He also fits into 5 black bin bags.
There was a time when King Charles tried to overturn parliament way back in the 1600s. I forget what happened next, but I’m pretty sure it was all very civil.
Unfortunately parliament didn’t finish the job, and another Charles came along. Now we’re up to a third Charles. I think parliament should have another go and get rid of these parasitic Charleses once and for all
Somehow Charles has returned.
Charles in charge
Get out of my head, Charles.
Shut the fuck up, Charles!
The number of Charles is TOO DAMN HIGH
Especially once you count Charles Entertainment Cheese into the total number of Charleses
Somehow I don’t the UK will Be Heading down that same route again.
Ahh yes but the second Charles was successful. Largely because Parliament was going after Catholics and people didn’t like living under an Inquisition. Then James fucked it all up and everyone decided just electing better leaders was the compromise.
Funny enough, that’s literally the plot of the play King Charles III that ran on the West End about a decade ago.
Spoiler alert: fictional KCIII doesn’t get very far.
