Aaahhhhhhhhggggyhgderggdukjgffddswrtf

This is going to be a completely pointless comment, but I have to exorcize this demon:

• "oppressed" is already a value judgement, so none of this can be "foundational" in the way he is claiming
• oppression is a bad thing by definition, otherwise we'd call it something else
• so the oppressed are always right in not wanting to be oppressed, by definition

dtgdrthgedseewqwefvvujnhfyjgfesaaaaaaaaaaghhhhh

He's literally saying "have you considered that bad things might actually be good"

I'm so sick and tired of this nerd speak dude just admit you're a fascist who wants fascism it's not hard and you're not going to lose subscribers.

Dude is trying to sound so smart and yet keeps on failing at it spectacularly.

people don't like being oppressed and a society founded on oppression contains inherent contradictions arising from conflict between the oppressor and oppressed classes

aha! you have committed the logical error of assuming that the oppressed are always right!

right makes right

the first rule of tautology club has been revised. previously, the first rule of tautology club was the first rule of tautology club. now, the first rule of tautology club is 'anytime you see elon musk on the street, smack him in the back of the head as hard as you can'

How long is it going to take for chuds to stop pretending they're not fascists? Just admit it!

Even with minimal cynicism it should take all of 10 seconds to realize this is just Might makes Right obscured by tautology:

Right makes right
law makes right
politicians make law
voters make politicians
advertising/propaganda makes voters
money makes advertising/propaganda

QED

right makes right

Damn I wish I could have thought of that

"There is nothing wrong with singing 'kill the Boer, kill the farmer'." -- Julius Malema

But the left does not argue that "weak makes right". I don't see anyone on the left saying that the Argentinian government's policies are right, despite then being in a very weak position. On foreign policy, I don't see the global left supporting Taiwan or even Ukraine, despite both states being in weak positions compared to their much larger neighbour, and one of them even being at war after the much larger neighbour invaded. Most are neutral and just want peace, and a few states even support Russia and China explicitly. The appeal to weakness and admiration of failed projects is something that is usually seen amongst egalitarian/radical liberals and the kind of person that argues "communism is a good idea in theory, but real communism has never been tried" types.

And that's the most charitable interpretation of what Musk has said, as other users have said judging who plays what part of the "oppressor/oppressed" dynamic is always a value judgement, and the oppressed are always right in not wanting to be oppressed by their oppressors within that specific dynamic.

He calls that thinking? All I hear is “I, the richest man in the world, LOVE cowards!”

Hey everybody, I just wanted to remind everybody that I care about doing the right thing even if it's some untermensch's idea and my haters don't and you are being irrational if you don't agree.

He is longing for the "good old days" when the AmeriKKKan Constitution was new. When women, non-whites and the poor were property and the indigenous were vermin to be removed from their land executed.

Not sure if what he posted makes no sense or if that's because English is not my first language, but I cannot make sense of what he tried to say.

Could someone please explain it to me in simpler terms?

Have considered that tautology exists, silly leftists?

I've actually seen a somewhat similar argument used to complain about western "leftists" who only like failed socialist projects but hate all AES states.
