Someone tell the Republicans we found the immigrant interfering with the election.

[–] Zorg@lemmings.world 17 points 2 months ago

The? Rupert Murdoch has been ~~running a huge propaganda network~~ playing 'defense' for republicans for decades.

[–] nickwitha_k@lemmy.sdf.org 16 points 2 months ago

An AFRICAN immigrant.

Yeeah, a lot of these "not really news" lately.. but it's good that they're talked about at least.

Someone please tell me that if we stop Trump, Musk shouts NO IT WASN'T SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN THIS WAY! and then spontaneously, melts, or shatters like glass, or gets swallowed up by a chasm, or eaten by hyenas.

And then every cybertruck, every tesla, every Spacex capsule and every Starlink satellite simultaneously turns into magic dust before evaporating into nothing.

Almost 100% onboard. The exception is SpaceX.

Obviously I don't know the exact specifics of how they're successful and I don't care.

Leave SpaceX out as the "black sheep", even though they should be the "golden child".

I wish SpaceX continued success and a future of good luck.

[–] fluxion@lemmy.world 23 points 2 months ago (1 children)

SpaceX deserves a CEO who isn't a complete disaster and enemy of the state.

It has Gwynne Shotwell, and she generally does quite well at managing Musk's impact.

[–] vanontom@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

Indeed. She must be keeping very busy. I haven't read much about her in a while (since she publicly defended him from sex scandals).

I wonder how she really feels about his spiralling mental illnesses and tragic obsessions (social media, conspiracies, politics). He seems quite useless and irrelevant to any business decisions these days. Just another investor to keep happy.

[–] kent_eh@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 months ago

Imagine how much better the company would be if she didn't have to burn so much of her time and effort on managing and mitigating Musk's chaos.

[–] BigBenis@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

I think Tesla could also be a company driving positive change if he wasn't cutting costs and pushing stupid products

[–] Munkisquisher@lemmy.nz 6 points 2 months ago

It can be successful with Musk. Would love to see it separated from him

[–] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

Ready or Not rules: If trump doesn't win in november then Musk and his entire empire explodes.

[–] vxx@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

He will get eaten by hyenas, his investors, and then put in a cell.

[–] Tyfud@lemmy.world 60 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Musk is on the trump mushroom dick train because he's afraid he's going to get indicted, and trump has already offered him a full pardon.

This makes too much sense to not be true.

[–] buzz86us@lemmy.world 11 points 2 months ago

Elon doesn't want to have to compete with Chinese makes rolling into Mexico. Trump promised 200% tariffs on Mexican produced cars. He basically has a captive market in the US on connected cars I don't really see anything in our domestic market that is comparable.

[–] rsuri@lemmy.world 48 points 2 months ago (1 children)

It's funny how this maps exactly onto the Hunter Biden files, except that everything Republicans lied about happening is now actually happening.

[–] PanArab@lemm.ee 30 points 2 months ago

Every accusation is an admission

[–] Grandwolf319@sh.itjust.works 30 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I thought that was the whole point of buying Twitter…

[–] GladiusB@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

That doesn't make it legal

[–] werefreeatlast@lemmy.world 23 points 2 months ago

Elon is getting fat. Like old fat.

[–] twig@lemmy.dbzer0.com 20 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Yes, and that is clearly the reason he purchased the platform.

[–] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

He purchased the platform because he was forced to buy it after he fucked around.

Unfortunately, we're the ones that get to "find out".

[–] VantaBrandon@lemmy.world 18 points 2 months ago

African immigrants are stealing the election

[–] Dasus@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

Throw the fuckers in prison already.
