I grew up poor; it doesn't make me more noble or give me special insight into how the world "really works." Being poor gives you a perspective, being rich gives you another perspective. Both are reflections of reality.

Good on Elon for trying to advance the world through solar, EVs, and space exploration. You don't like him because he's rich. You don't like poor people if they are white. None of this makes any sense to me.

He is only into space exploration; he got into EV because he saw a huge gov subsidy he could milk; he doesn’t care about environment as Earth is “disposable”. He got into solar to bail out his cousins business.


Musk, Thiel are all obsessed with longevity and eternal life and don’t care how many peasants they trample on the way

So you are fine with his products but wish he had a more altruistic personal philosophy? I mean.... okay. That seems petty. And which peasants are being trampled? They've turned so many people- myself included- into millionaires.

Musk’s actions have killed over 600,000 people so far, has left thousands unemployed (for ZERO savings), helped tank our economy and has sowed hate and division. I’m glad YOU came out ahead. 🤷

Out of curiosity, how many people do these guys employ? Is the Salesforce CEO part of this group?

Larry Page is leaving CA because his billions may be taxed an extra 5%. They are a mentally ill bunch. Never seen a bigger bunch of losers who don’t use any of their $$ for good, just evil.

So they can mostly underemploy and underpay workers and lay them off at will and all is forgiven?!

You are the person OP is describing. Well done!

What? Salesforce is a sh!thole based on personal experience. I’m curious how many people these guys employ. Maybe this is why more people don’t speak out against them. Salesforce is huge. It also has ties to Israel, so I wonder if it counts has part of the tech oligarchy. Benioff supported Obama, Harris, Clinton but now seems to support some Trump policies.

Truly I wonder who is in and out these days. It isn’t always clear.

People don’t speak up in the US because we have very little safety net that isn’t tied to our jobs. People can strike and protest in Europe because they have state medicine. If you lose your job in the US, you’re screwed.

Nobody makes their billions alone. They have benefited from a publicly educated workforce, public roads, and publicly funded Internet. They are some of the most unpatriotic and anti Americans POS‘s.

Nobody knows. It depends which side wins.

Benioff has done a full pivot to MAGA.
