As an imminent Harris/Walz voter, this comment shocks me. It’s 2016 all over again and I’m realizing people are living in a Hillary bubble. Acting like this shit is in the bag. It is SO NOT IN THE BAG. Not even fucking close.
Now I’m not going to spam a bunch of voting links and opine on how it’s up to you to make a difference and make it so. M
This bubble is serious and I’m very afraid of what kind of reality is going to be crashing around all around this country and the world when an also shocked Trump sees the results roll in election night and he is now the new King of America (in his eyes). “They really do love me. God has chosen me. I am supreme.”
You fools. You don’t realize that this is so within the margin of error it’s a totally real and near possibility.
Trump is not done until it’s done.
trump is done
That's really not the case.
How can you possibly think trump is done? Loved 2016 day after election feeling or ..?
Over the years, Phony Stark went from some sort of [anti]hero to straight up supervillain. I guess kinda like Robert Downey Jr. from Iron Man to Dr. Doom.
What do you get when you cross Kim Jong Un and Jean-Baptiste Emanuel Zorg?
Is this going to be the next photo he permanently deletes from the internet forever? I still can't believe this one is gone
Has he gotten this one removed yet?
It's only a matter of time
Jong-Baptist Unmanuel Xlon
They were wondering if it'd be possible to fire 500,000. Maybe from one of the smaller companies where no one would notice, like one of the cab companies?
Zorg: fire 1,000 000.

Maybe they dug too deep for those hairplugs and damaged the empathy part of his brain?
^^^just ^^^kidding ^^^he ^^^was ^^^a ^^^asshole ^^^from ^^^the ^^^start
Nah, he decided thah hes dedicated Elon-Marketing team was not useful, he could do it better himself! So he fired them sometimes IIRC in 2018.
The rest is history :-)
Do you mean empathy? Apathy is more like indifference
Eh, whatever… I feel that.
Fixed it. Was early in the morning before coffee
Is this supposed to be formatted using a larger font or something? I'm on Apollo and I just see a bunch of carrets.
Supposed to be super script I think?
This is very insulting, Dr. Doom is an intelligent and effective ruler, please do not draw such an unfair comparison between him and Musk. Fictional character feelings matter.
Supervillains have some sort of charisma. People love to hate them. When a Bond villain is on screen, it’s like oh, this guy is cool… if Musk was in a movie it would be like wow, please skip this shit, this guy is boring and creepy. Musk is far from authentically charming. He tries though, and it’s nauseating. I admit that the deranged tangerine baboon has some sort of natural charisma - Musk does not. His special facial expressions are atrocious. His attempts at humor are embarrassingly bad. He has very little social awareness. To top it all off, despite being an off putting and repellent petty, immature and clueless ignoramus, he clearly radiates that he think he is the absolute best. So, his new sycophant relationship with Trump is perfect. He’d be like the #2 or 3 evil henchmen, kind of a side character, who gets knocked off 2/3 through the film and the crowd is relieved.
I know of several people interested in EV that either chose some other maker for EV, or have not yet opted into buying at all, entirely because of Elon.
And that's before the endorsement of donOLD.
I'm the same way. I'm just glad I couldn't afford a Tesla when I thought Elon was going to do good things for the world. Now that I can afford one, I'll wait till someone else makes one that competes with it or he's no longer a part of the company.
In the meantime, I've been looking in to converting something old and neat to an EV to put around town in. The conversions aren't the greatest but you can do 200hp/tq and 100mile range for less than a crappy used car.
He sure has been a big disappointment. I admired and even respected him and what he was driving, but once his PR team decided to not exist any longer, I guess, his behavior was instantly and incredibly immature and off-putting.
I want to appreciate everything he has had his booger-hooks in for what they are (apart from Twitter), but I just can't imagine supporting them until he simply isn't in the picture at all.
You know how sometimes a movie is so terrible that it becomes good? I feel that way about Musk. He is so unbelievably stupid that it is honestly sort of amazing. He has all but destroyed Twitter and now he has dealt mortal strike to Tesla by opening endorsing fascists who hate electric cars. Simply amazing.
Yep model Y ticks my boxes but I'm probably not gonna change cars or go for one last petrol/hybrid because I feel really dirty at the idea of getting one...
I won't forget that Musk played a front-facing role in trying to put an insurrectionist criminal back in power to finish the job of destroying American democracy.
NASA should be very careful about how they deal with SpaceX since Musk also frequently spreads Russian propaganda.
Buying a Tesla is a vote for Big Orange.
IT DIDN'T BACKFIRE! THAT'S A LIE!
Elon musk pointed a gun at his own head and fired, that's not backfiring.
But some people may be surprised that somehow it wasn't a good idea.
But I'm sure Trump is left there laughing. Maybe he is going down, but at least he can take some people with him.
