numerous people claim to have witnessed him use LSD, cocaine, Ecstasy, and mushrooms behind closed doors
It's amazing that he can do LSD, mushrooms, and ex and still have zero empathy.

Those substances are empathy multipliers, unfortunately multiplying 0 always yields 0…
If his brain doesn’t possess the ability to empathize, there’s nothing for those substances to enhance.
Yeah but 0^0 = 1, maybe we just need to inject him with heaps of meth first or something. It's not like we could make the situation worse

Yeah, that was my first thought that he really hadn't because unless he micro-microdosed or just said he did to be "cool", which is on brand for him, there's no way he did hallucinogins and still came out the other side like that.
From my understanding he's a big proponent of the simulation theory, so he's probably cool with being a shit person because it's all a simulation anyways. I'd wager that he sees himself as a player in a video game and he's going for high scores.
Who the fuck can take simulation theory seriously?
gestures generally around
But his idea of simulation theory and most of our ideas of simulation theory are not the same.
He thinks it means there are no consequences.
We all know it's means the consequences might be simulated but they still suck.
Which is asinine. As currently, there is no way out of the simulation if that is even true, so you're stuck with the simulation consequences no matter what. Which means you might as well treat them as real because they are to you. We should have cleaned up better after WW2 somehow.

Someone on a lot of drugs?

I’m surprised Ketamine isn’t in this list, I thought it was his drug of choice this past year?
I really doubt Elon is who he is and uses acid or shrooms. That just sounds like reefer madness nonsense to me.
To be fair, this said behind closed doors. He does the ketamine out in the open, claiming it was prescribed to him.

He also smoked weed in public on the Joe Rogan show. He clearly likes drugs.

Oh you're tired? You're enabling fascism and you're fucking tired? You're endorsing human trafficking and all you are is tired? You're profiting off of the complete dismantling of our fucking country and the best reaction you can muster is walking out of a meeting beacause you're TIRED???
Go suck a fucking barrel.
BREAKING NEWS...
President Musk issues EO declaring he's funny.
First Buddy Trump agrees.
Anyone who doesn’t laugh at Elon’s superior comedic talents and antics will be sent to a humor retraining camp
Not laughing about his jokes will be considered terrorism and be punishable by deportation to a Salvadoran concentration camp.

He probably thinks "lolrandom" humor is the peak of comedy.
he already revealed what he thinks is comedy when he talked about his pitch to SNL. it's unbelievable.
very curious what he pitched
I couldn't take the suspense and I had to look it up.
Musk also told the crowd that he didn’t like the ideas he was presented with early in the week. “I was a bit worried at the beginning there,” he said, “because frankly nothing was funny.”
He then went on to reveal his idea of funny, describing one pitch in particular that did not go over well.
“One of the things that everyone’s been wondering this whole time is: Is Saturday Night Live actually live… or do they have a delay just in case there’s a wardrobe malfunction or something like that?,” Musk said to set up the pitch. “But there’s a way to test this.” (SNL does, in fact, air without a tape delay.)
In Musk’s vision, he’d tell the audience he was going to put this to the test by taking “his cock out.”
“So I’m going to reach down into my pants… and then I pull out a baby rooster,” Musk explained. “Like, ‘This is my tiny cock.’”
Unfortunately, the joke didn’t end there.
“And then Kate McKinnon walks out,” added Jason Calacanis, co-host of the All-In Podcast, who was also present in the pitch meeting. “And she says, ‘Elon, I expected you would have a bigger cock.’”
McKinnon, meanwhile, would have been holding a cat.
“You can see where this is going,” Musk told the crowd
God he’s a fucking repulsive loser.
One of the richest people in the world has the humour of a 14 year old boy slipping through the cracks of the education system.
I guess it doesn't really surprise me though, if only this money went to something good.

He's so used to being the boss and having everyone always laugh at his shitty jokes that he thinks he's funny.
He's not a politician and has no charisma or any way of getting people to do what he wants outside of ordering them to, which is why he'll never do well in politics where building and maintaining relationships in your coalition is one of your main jobs.
The richest man in the world isn't trying to help you. He's helping himself to whatever he wants. Super bad idea.
"behavior has caused several high-ranking officials to walk out of important meetings and sincerely question if he was high on drugs"
Bet you dollars to donuts that he is, so, yes.

A shy guy who desperately wants to be a nerd's nerd somehow gets tangled with the party of RAM truck buying adult frat bros who see themselves as "alpha". I just can't figure out the culture fit, and articles like this don't surprise me at all. Like, isn't Trump the kind of guy who would endlessly bully someone for saying they play videogames at all?
There are two main types of "conservative" now. The old school big truck lovin', god-fearin', beer guzzling, anti-environmentalist yeehaw types, and the "newer" 4chan-posting, edgelording, neckbearded, gamergatin', crypto-lovin' internet troll types that have arose in the last twenty-five years with the proliferation of the Internet. Elon is trying to fit in with the latter.

They are definitely NOT "tired" of his money though.
Despite fitting right in. Weird.
I’m a bit confused, cause Trump isn’t funny. It must be awful to be in a room with either of them.
Trump is funny to conservatives. The kind who laugh at the attack helicopter joke. Elon isn’t even funny to conservatives, which is kind of impressive.

I guess that's what happens when you're rich enough to spend your life surrounded by sycophantic yes men who'll lap whatever you say up for proximity to money and influence.
Man has insulated himself from ever experiencing the sincere social cues you need to develop and refine your communication skills.
Probably, it's an unconventional opinion, but I believe one may on their own will take any drug as long as they are responsible about it.
There's the case of already awful person who doesn't understand anything, futher exaggerated by their keta binge, who doesn't even care about how they affect people's lives. All red flags, like it's a red corner in a soviet school. They shouldn't be judged on their drug abuse first, but by how they are careless and stupid by default.
Being intoxicated while making important decisions that affect the future of the country doesn't count as "responsible," IMO.

I'm a killjoy: I doubt that this article is accurate, or if it even matters. I think articles like this exist to placate. I wouldn't trust anything that a "senior administration official" tells Rolling Stone.

I choose to see the good in Elon; he may have finally made the cheese hat too cringe to wear.
