Huh. I guess we're just going to put up memes if we don't have valid arguments.

He wastes enough money in an afternoon to feed and house all the hungry kids in this country, and possibly a few others.

He fires more people than I ever would, and with less regard than I would show the people who provided my wealth.

He buys companies that do cool things, becomes the face of them, and then runs them into the ground with his lackadaisical leadership policies and lack of actual, competent authority. Based.

He is a greedy pig who only wants for himself. Devoid of empathy and ethics, he revels in the misfortune of others. A true psychopath.

He's butt-ugly, and built like a Tesla truck.

This may be one of the most ill informed posts I have ever seen. He owns stock in the companies he runs, he doesn’t pay himself an exorbitant salary. He fires people that are not efficiently doing the job they were hired to do. He has more vision than just about any human ever has and thinks very outside of the box. Lackadaisical leadership? He works 100 hour a week. Greedy Pig? He has told the US Gov they don’t need to subsidize electric vehicles and that the model can support itself. He gave the Ukraine starlink, effectively allowing to defend themselves, and he refused to accept payment for it. You are truly a very poorly informed person.

Elon Musk “more vision than any human ever has”

and you expect anyone to listen to you?

What motivates someone like you to metaphorically suck this guy’s ——? I’m truly curious.

He doesn't pay himself an exorbitant salary because he borrows against the value of his shares. In other words, he doesn't have to pay income taxes on the money he extracts.

He is also one of the most terrible people in the world, so there’s that.

the few S&P 500 leaders that I met are all psychopaths. no human emotions. able to lie on demand.

capitalism allows someone like this to rise to the top.

Many of them have become the kind of libertarian that involves having their own private islands / private compounds with private security where they figure they can be overlords of their own little fiefdoms while they chop the legs out from the government. I've seen that for years, with Thiel and others.

Now as I learn more about Yarvin and the Butterfly Revolution it suddenly makes a lot of sense - and it's scary as hell.

One thing he’s doing is getting SpaceX to collect the astronauts that Biden stranded on the ISS.

Also: building and operating a global high speed satellite broadband service and sending into orbit the largest spacecraft in history.

Why are you making excuses for a billionaire that doesn’t care about any of us? You’re like the slave that works as an overseer and sells out his own people.

That's not even the worst thing. The worst thing is the degree to which so many chumps in our country and all over the world idolize these psychopaths.

Musk is fraudulently collecting multiple paychecks.

If a federal employee were collecting a full time paycheck from the government and at the same time was collecting full time pay from SpaceX, Tesla, Starlink and wherever else at the same time that they were supposed to be working for the government they'd get fired.
