    Apparently it only counts if you hurt people physically. Hurting their finances, support systems, healthcare, employment prospects are all fine.

      I find it telling he had the self awareness to add that caveat, but in typical fashion, couldn’t follow the train of thought far enough to arrive at the logical conclusion. “I’ve taken away safety nets from the people, most are one paycheck short of being on the streets with nothing to lose, but what’s up with all these threats!?”

        There’s a recent unironic Hitler Did Nothing Wrong sentiment that points out he never pulled the trigger or a lever on anyone.

        I think Musk is going that route.

        It’s also been used to defend Brian the dead health insurance CEO.

          There’s a recent unironic Hitler Did Nothing Wrong sentiment that points out he never pulled the trigger or a lever on anyone.

          You mean the one he specifically amplified on his own site? Methinks he sees some parallels himself.

            He thinks he’s orders of magnitude smarter than anyone else and nobody with guts could possibly see those parallels.

            Frankly, we’ve been doing a great job of proving him correct.

            He’s still quite happy, healthy, and wealthy.

                I think he’s about as happy as any human being can be. Sure he has his less than perfect, probably performative sad moments on camera, but as they say, it’s hard to frown on a jetski.

          I know this is beside the point & off topic, but Hitler is well known for pulling the trigger at least once…

          spoiler

          He did what many time travelers aspire to.

        Oh, no. I don’t think you fully understand. He’s aware of what he’s doing to us. But as far as he’s concerned, we simply do not have the right to be upset about any of this, let alone fight back.

        That is the way elites parasites think. That’s how truly twisted they’re minds, not to mention morals, have become. The pain is intentional. But he honestly believes we deserve to be hurt, and further that he’s doing is a favor by reminding us of “our place”.

        Don’t make the mistake of sympathizing with the enemy.

          It’s not that we deserve to be hurt, it’s that he is helpng us, saving us and the pain that comes with that isn’t his fault. It’s the fault of the oppressors he has saved us from.

            Oh, I still think you’re being far more charitable than you realize. To people like him, we’re lesser. But their warped views rob themselves of a certain, I dunno, fulfillment. And if he’s not happy, and we’re less than him…

            "Elites parasites are sociopathic to the extreme. This poisons every thought, choice, and action. They do not think like you. This basic empathy you keep circling back to? The very definition of sociopath is that they do not have the ability to empathize.

            It really is much worse than you seem to think.

                Source? Straight out of my ass, technically. In other words I didn’t have anything good to refer you to off the top of my head, but if you start just with the dictionary definition of sociopath you should see what I’m basing my argument from.

        Exactly. Just like fElon reminded us the other day - it was the public workers that killed people, not Hitler.

      You could literally torture people to death without physically hurting them.

      He’s just drawing a false equivalence between not physically hurting people and never harming people.

      I’m sure the people that he’s targeted on social media feel harmed, like the “pedo guy” for example.

    His confusion has got to be completely feigned. I can’t imagine even a billionaire doesn’t understand what firing thousands of people does to their lives.

    Either way there’s no sympathy here. Bitch could’ve solved world hunger if he thought of anyone else for a single moment that wasn’t for a press release.

    Why? Actions have consequences. If your good deeds outweigh the bad ones you’re okay. If bad deeds outweigh the good ones, people know you as elon musk.

    Musk you absolutely have blood on your hands. There was a bipartisan bill to cap medicine prices and your tweets stopped and killed it. You know medicine that people rely on to live like insulin and asthma inhalers.

    Some of those people are looking at a life of medical debt induced misery for themselves and family OR a more permanent and tragic solution.

    You won’t be able to scrub hard enough to wipe those claret marks off.

    Ah yes, because he didn’t personally assault people he should be hands-off, event though he’s personally commanded people’s live’s to be fucked with.

    It’s like the UHC CEO that was executed, none of them want to take responsibility for their actions or actually consider the ramifications of them. Like pulling the trigger on the gun but taking no responsibility for what damage the bullet does.

    His policies have absolutely hurt, and probably killed, people.

    This guy is a whiney little bitch.

      Not just his policies

      but his “products” from his “companies”.

      So many people have DIED because they were told BY MUSK that the cars were capable of driving themselves or because the “cars” just don’t fucking work.

      Just one example.

      Ask Angela Chao about that.
