      That is so profoundly pathetic. My mouth fell open.

      The extreme psychological issues behind using an alt account to try and soothe his own ego about his obvious shortcomings as a father, are in dire need of professional help.

        No doubt a lot of this is proving to himself something after having is own ‘terrible father’(according to him that is)

          Oh you don’t need his word. Elon’s “current” stepmother was his step sister. His father at least is a pedophilic groomer. That’s just the tip of the ice berg too. That shitberg runs deep.

            That she was four when she became Elon’s stepsister is the worst part for me. If she had been an adult, even a young adult, when she and Errol met after he married her mother, it would have been sketchy (breaking the divide by two plus fourteen rule) but not in pedo territory. To have multiple children (Elon’s half-siblings and also his step-nieces) with someone you raised as your own child since they were four… it’s beyond.

      He’s wanted his kids a lot closer, physically, after the Luigi incident. It makes sense he’s literally wearing one on his back. More surprising that he hasn’t strapped one to his front as well.

      So even his kid is calling him a monkey? Aren’t there child protective services?

      One of his kids is transgender. Changed their surname because he’s such a shitty father.

      But his narcissistic ego thinks he’s a great father. And apperently only him, because there sno one else there to say he is.

        The reason he went into right wing politics was to rid the world of the woke mind virus that stole his daughter from him.

        Not to say he wouldn’t have joined anyway in the future, but if there was a straw that broke the camels back, this was it.

          You know people say the love for your child knows no boundaries? Well, I know Elon is only a few years older then me, but I say to him: “ok boomer, fuck you”. He’s just like my mom. Love knows no boundaries, as long as you fit into very specific extremily high expectations.

          Because your kid doesn’t want to see you again and changes their surname, maybe you failed as a father? Maybe the fault lies with you, not with them? Maybe, when all of your kids complain about you being a bad dad, as well as your exes, not all of your kids and exes are wrong, but you are? Maybe, when your youngest kid calls you a fucking monkey, you’re a fucking monkey and should be ashamed AF… Or the entire world is wrong and you are right, because you’re a narcissistic psychopath so there’s no chance of you doing anything bad, ever.

            Well said, but it’s worse.

            He doesn’t even think the fault is with his daughter, he thinks the woke education system did this to her, and she wouldn’t be trans if it wasn’t for them.

            Like, he’s denying who she is. It’s like the other side of conversion therapy, they converted her to trans, and she’s the victim.

              Yeah I agree, allowing people to be who they are is disgusting. People should only be who I allow them to be, according to my standards. /s His daughter now is a victim of a society which allows her to be who she really is and not who Elon wants her to be. So society is to blame. “Because everyone should live by my standards, and if their standards are different, my standards will be better so they should change their standards.” What a dumb fuck. His daughter is only a victim of Elon. As well as maaaaany others, and many more in the near future.

      This is typical autism behavior where you expect immediate rewards for good behavior that has long term benefits, except he had the awareness to make a sock puppet account to give it to himself.

      Not commenting on Musk, but here’s my advice to other people on the spectrum: allistic people don’t reward good behaviors immediately, sometimes they might not give any reward at all because they’re playing a completely different game. Reward yourself by giving yourself a personal and private treat for things you value, and don’t judge yourself based on others validation, or lack thereof. Set your own goals, live by your rules.

        Trump has always just spouted talking points and word salad until something gets a good reaction and that becomes the new mantra and even government policy. Things that had a bad reaction are put in the “I never said that” box.

        It’s surprisingly how much this resembles how an AI generates images. It starts with random noise and refines that into a clear image that matches the criteria.

        Oh my fucking god. I only mostly read his tweets and quotes, never really hearing Musk talk much, especially not in a “debate”. I didn’t realize how incredibly childish, arrogant, and downright moronic he was in an argument. All he does is talk over a well-articulated point before the person could finish it by insulting the other party and laughing dumbly at his own joke as if he had made some sort of zinger. And the very few times he doesn’t do that he uses blatant strawman arguments.

        This is literally like a child yelling back “Oh yeah?Well, your face is stupid!” How the fuck is this person the richest person on Earth? He wouldn’t even be able to keep a fast food employee job.

            Actually, it also necessitates a minimal ability to play the sidelines, manipulate and trick people and a complete lack of morality to use those abilities. He didn’t found Tesla. He stole it from its original founders by placing people who were loyal to him on the board.

        The silliness isn’t what convinced me they were different people, it was the fact that Dittman could string a sentence together whereas every time I’ve heard Elon without a script (which really isn’t often, probably never outside of KF) there have been so many ums and ahs that communicating a single point would take a lifetime. Maybe having less pressure on him as Dittman helps.

          That right there is something I’ve always found grating about hearing him speak. When you hear someone intelligent speak, sometimes they use those placeholder umms and ahhs but he’s only using them to keep the attention on himself–to not cede the floor to another speaker.

          Despite how much/little value there is in his input, i think he’s also using the extra time bought by those umms as a chance to try to remember/choose fancy words to dress up the thought he may be attempting to convey. Chances are he’s not saying anything of value, but he’s trying to speak as though his every word is profound. It’s gotta be an ego thing, but probably also numerous other things too. He’s so multidimensional 🥴

      I was arguing with people online that he’s a piece of shit for years and kept getting downvoted by fanboys talking about him being Tony Stark.

      This isn’t some look how smart I was comment, I just assumed he was a piece of shit because he was a billionaire and I assume every billionaire is a piece of shit unless an overwhelming amount of evidence is presented.

      Moral of the story is, never worship celebrities and certainly never worship billionaires, unless they are fictional ie batman, then you can like them since it’s inconsequential.

        I don’t think you need to have the stipulation for evidence about billionaires not being shit. I don’t think you can be a billionaire without being shit. If you have that much money and aren’t giving it away, you’re a bad person. That’s ignoring how you got it in the first place, which basically requires unfairly benefiting from others work without compensation, excluding inheritance.

Most people (perhaps all people?) have a little list in the back of their mind of what they’d like to buy as a dream that’s out of reach. For instance I’d buy a nice plot of land in B.C. and build a house on it. Or I’d get a large apartment in Wuhan and fill one room with bookshelves positively dripping with books.

          Now in this thought exercise this person comes back and gives you a million dollars the next day. And the next. And the next. And the next. Each day you have to spend a million dollars on yourself. Not donate to charity, not buy things for your friends. You have to spend the whole million on yourself.

          How long would it take you to run out of things you really need or want? Would you last a week? A month? Well to reach a billion dollars you’d have to do this EVERY DAY FOR ALMOST THREE YEARS. Day after day you’d be spending money on more and more bizarre things. A car? Hell, no! You’ve got ten of them about now. A home? God, another one!? That would be number seven. You’d have every valuable collectible you’d ever desired, and likely multiple copies of each. This spending a million dollars a day for that long would, if you’re sane, drive you literally crazy. There’s a very real chance you’d have a nervous breakdown.

          A billionaire is the person for whom this isn’t enough.

      I want to lock Musk and Chris-chan into a room together and see who out crazies the other first. Bonus points if the try to breed one another first.

        there’s no voice changer in this world, present or future, that can make up for his fucking stupid way of speaking. he’s such monumental goddamn idiot that he couldn’t realize his very recognizable mannerisms couldn’t be covered up by a voice changer. and then he proved even more stupid and exposed himself.

          Well, there is, just not in real-time. You could have one that changes the speech patterns and could even change the words you use, but it’d have to be done at least with some noticeable latency.

    So that conversation Elon had with “Adrian” was a fake?

    I don’t believe it tbh. One slipped pronoun isn’t a lot to go on. I wouldn’t be surprised if they were the same person and it was an elaborate ruse the entire time, but I’m not convinced yet.

      This is not the first time he was caught with a sock puppet. And I can confuse the names of people a lot and call the wrong name but I never referred to myself when talking about someone else, and I never see or heard about It either. It is not a simple mistake, It is too different cognitive speaking I think.

        So I do admire what Tesla and SpaceX are doing and I’ll watch various things on the topic.

        I was watching one where Ron Barron was doing an interview with Gwynne Shotwell, SpaceX’s COO, and he only referred to SpaceX as if it was his.

        I know he’s a big investor in it, but it drove me nuts.

        I don’t think I’ve ever seen that anywhere else, ever.

        Like, I guess I’m developing the worlds best AI chips since I own an ETF with NVIDIA?

          BBC News’ reporting on Starship launches always says things like “Elon Musk’s Rocket” and it makes me want to write a strongly worded email of complaint

        Did he have a voice call with his other sock puppet? No? Oh okay. Thanks for chirping in.

        People fuck up pronouns all the time, congrats on being above that genius.
