There is a percentage of any population that just repeats shit they heard their role models say, like it’s the gospel. Image repair is going to involve starting “cool projects,” getting good interviews with popular influencers, and coaching a swarm of people to ignorantly support him for the “sake of humanity” or some shit. This is a weird faucet of human society, but look at how well it works…

They didn’t want him creeping out the other pedos.

Epstein was pretty obviously mossad but both russia and israel seem to both use the blackmail materials. Interesting how that woks from such a "staunch US ally" as israel is portrayed to be. How are they sharing this stuff?

Side note, I suggest a change to english writing standards whereby loathsome words like "putin" or "israel" become exceptions to capitalization rules and are always lower case. "US" is an exception only because it breaks the writing flow and reads as 'us'.

Idk, shooting himself on live television would redeem him slightly in my eyes. Slightly....

i’ve read that he was always a fuck knob, he just used to have better PR.

Elon Musk has never been anything more than an investor with a good PR team. He doesn't have a brain to develop anything on his own.

Yeah, no. He never could have been because there never was potential. I keep hearing this and talks about how smart he is and why would he use that for evil.

No.

The guy is a fucking idiot.

He has a certain charisma, and he is a great scammer, that's for sure, and he got lucky like hell multiple times, but please stop pretending that this guy who got fired from his own company for incompetence has any abilities or redeeming qualities. He doesn't. In. A different universe, he simply would have failed at step one and nobody would have known his name.

He is a dumb but lucky lying scam artist, nothing more. Any qualities that people think he has, are just other things he made up and claimed. He claims he's the world best engineer yet literally every idea that comes from him directly is just too stoopid to even say out loud.

The earlier Tesla's aren't his (no he did not found Tesla, that too is a lie) but the cyber truck is his idea and design and that should show the absolute insanity in his head.

Well, he got his mention in Star Trek as one of the great people to will have advanced humanity, so I guess after having that had crossed off his list he could just do something different next.

you don't deserve power.

Not even the kind that recharges devices!

The world would be many times better off if he was forced to live a 100% analog life.

Imagine being such a terrible person that even custom made LLMs struggle to praise you

I was at a gay campground last summer and the guy I was with pointed out two Starlink receivers, we were both amazed that community-oriented queer men would just fork over money so they could watch TV. At a campground. They weren't even boomers, they were Gen Xers. People are just so addicted to modern convenience they don't care about who's supplying it.

Alec kinda hammered this in with his last Technology Connections video briefly.

It really was easier/better to launch millions of sattelites into space instead of just getting AT&T or whatever other telecom to extend a cable 50 yards? Really?

I actually built a LoRa network with a mate, if we stretch our antenas we can cover almost 300km with little to no energy but the latency is absolutely trash, though communication wise it works alright.

We should have less and less trust handling our data like we currently do.

Bold of you to assume Elon needs a reason to be a bastard

Probably not, because he's never shown much inclination to do what is right without significant, external, pressure.

That doesn't mean they weren't blackmailing him, just that cutting their access is more likely an attempt to be seen to be doing the right thing, rather than doing it becausevit's right. Basically the direction of the external pressure has changed, and now this is the most advantageous approach for him.
