Not that shocking
Seriously - more people need to understand this weird fucking cabal of white South African tech magnates that grew up in apartheid and evidently still think that apartheid was super cool.
Weird is an understatement. His dad was a bizarre figure.
Ooooh yep.
To other users: if you haven’t looked into how Elon’s dad fathered not one, but two children with his stepdaughter, one of which was fully intentional… well. Buckle up. It’s a wild ride.
It was for them when they were the oppressors.
I came here to say basically this. Who's actually shocked about this? Is this like shocked pikachu?
I was more thinking of the Futurama Fry meme, I'm shocked, well not that shocked.
That's the only relevant reply to this comment but why waste space so added the rest. Plus Futurama rocks so always enjoy a reminder of it.
I don't think the initial shock would happen when talking about a Nazi billionaire oh sorry Elon Musk the billionaire who apparently helped Trump during an election compared to a regular person sure but not Mr Musk, we know his colours and has a whole social media to let us know repeatedly. Then Mr Musk was rewarded with being able to fire people investigating him (think technically through doge).Huh now that seems odd and dripping with corruption.
Yeah the shocking has gone down to the amount a 6 year old rubs their feet lots on carpet to give you a shock. (Was fun as a kid heh)
One has to wonder about his pedophile connection since calling that diver one. That's an odd insult to throw out like sure jerk, bitch, asshole, dick but pedo? Maybe more digging needed to see why it's so upfront on his insults.
In fact, not at all shocking if you've paid any attention to him at all. He also believes in the replacement theory. That's one of the reasons he has so many kids.
And why he gets so irrationally angry when his kids become progressive activists.
