AHAHA!

Desperate for fresh validation and praise, L. Ron Musk turns to the Chinese and gets shot down.

He’s such a little turd.

It’s hilarious how desperate this guy is to be loved

By billions

>“Can you focus on Tesla? No improvement, no new models, no localisation of Model X and S …,” said one top-voted comment under the post. “I think you should open a vote on Weibo regarding whether you should step down as Tesla CEO.

The internet really isn't a place fit for billionaires, people are out for blood in here lmao

Hee Wrong Musk!!!

There is no bodyguard, no secretary to stop us from typing

>The internet really isn't a place fit for billionaires

It used to be for a while. For years any post criticising Musk would get downvoted to oblivion. Anyone questioning Tesla valuation would get shouted over ("Tesla is a tech company!" "It's a growth stock!"). People were honestly arguing that Hyperloop is something that can be realistically built (Hell. Another billionaire-but-imbecile even spent a lots of his money to try to build one).

Perception is just catching up to reality.

He is a nerd who suddenly became cool and wants to keep that high going but is failing.

Words matter less now? He spent 44? Billion on a social media company because he wanted to promote free speech.

Musk recently had a spat with Hu Xijin, the former editor of nationalist state tabloid Global Times, over comments related to the Russia-Ukraine conflict.

He does not know how to conduct himself as a CEO in a foreign country, not only as a representative of an American company but also as a guest in that country, who is making money from Chinese people due only to the good graces of the government. Public spats over politics is not among acceptable behaviors in that situation.

Is he a nerd though?

If actions speak louder than words than elon musk is a charlatan at best

Seems more like a narcissist spectrum disorder is what plagues him, plus some nerdiness to make him seem human and somewhat likeable

Until he opens his mouth, that is...

or cool?

L. Ron Musk. I like it.

My theory is that some right-wing fuck knuckles - you know, the kind he's been buddying up to lately - said something along the lines of "Y'know, I wish someone'd do something about all the wokerati on Twitter" and then Musk bought it out in a desperate bid to look cool to them, and is now burnin' up because the RWFKs aren't reciprocating the love because Musk did it off his own bat, and the RWFKs don't feel they owe him anything.

To be fair, Elon also asked his flight attendant for a handjob, and said she’d get a horse in return.

I mean, how out of touch do you have to be to not know a pony was the superior gift, which would have clenched the handy, and saved him a cool quarter million?

Then there’s the whole flying to Epstein’s Island ten times on the Lolita Express.

All that money, and he just wants to copy Woody Allen - or his dad, and bang his stepdaughter.

bro the flame from the chinese League of Legends community is on another level. That is honestly super tame, but also back handed as fuck as and so funny. Like Muskrat actually thought weibo of all places was going to be supportive?

After seeing him run Twitter THEY WANT HIM BACK AT TESLA?! In what world do they think Musk possesses the leadership skills or the public trust to run Tesla. He ran an unrelated company so poorly it destroyed Tesla. Maybe if he goes back to tesla full time we can see the stock drop to 25$ a share! Or maybe he will just lock me out of my car like he did my Twitter for making fun of him.

I am so tired of this guys obsession with attention. someone give him a hug and tell him to shut up

I agree.i think he and SBF are getting used by bigger, smarter money. Not that I feel bad at all for either person.

Except now he is banning anyone that talks shit about him..

I was definitely one to defend the person over their message, but I'm pretty happy to have learned. As long as it's just words in the void of the internet; Better to learn and regret than to have been nasty about it without ever changing.

I couldn't have articulated that sentiment better! 10/10

just the opinion of a few random users, there is no link to the post

> Y'know, I wish someone'd do something about all the wokerati on Twitter"

"Will no one rid me of these turbulent tweets?"

Dam man, imagine being so hungry for mockery.

Hyperloop CAN be realistically built.

But not with our current technology.

First we need to get regular maglevs on working order and then we can begin thinking on vaccum sealing them.

And then it probably will not make a difference, Hell, the amount of concrete needed may very well offset the energy consumption. Nevermind the issue of a single guy with a drill being able to stop the whole line (and maybe cause a big incident if a train happens to just be going through.)

Well more to the point, the fascist oligarchs are trying to control all media and twitter is, or was, the premier news platform on the planet. So that part of the plan is working just fine.

A news article about online comments, ground breaking stuff right here.

Chinese people are not that controlled.

>Perception is just catching up to reality.

You conveniently "forget" that before 2018 things were other way around. People were shitting on Musk since the very start, for over a decade, saying BEV are unviable, unsellable etc, "rational critiques" said if rockets could land NASA would do it long time ago, etc. etc, but Tesla and SpaceX kept delivering.

So no what you call "reality" is not always right. And it's not reality, it's just another perception.

Musk just changed. And with him his companies are no longer the same.

The only way Teslas valuation made sense is if their solar and power storage technology was so good, and their lead s insurmountable, that they were going to replace Exxon.

and rightfully so. Leon should stop playing/wasting his billions on Twitter and make Tesla a success... (oh, he does not have the capability.... space karen.

As they should be, billionaires have no place in a functioning society lol. I don’t understand why we as a society with limited resources, idolize those that horde them. It’s crazy that we have a few individuals who go get to play judge, jury, and executioner with our finite resources.

I think you're partially right, but I'm going to guess, instead of trying to look cool to them, he's just poorly coping with the fact his kid came out as trans and disassociated with him completely. https://www.reuters.com/world/elon-musks-child-seeks-name-change-sever-ties-with-father-2022-06-21/

He turned to RWFKs because he needs to be loved, but even his own kids wants nothing to do with him. Throw in one of them being trans, and he probably blames "woke cancel culture" for his ruined personal relationships.

>Hyperloop CAN be realistically built.

I mean technically they can be built. But never. And I mean never they would be viable or realistic.

To see why just look at this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zz95_VvTxZM one guy with a hammer could trigger this and destroy killometers of tracks.

Is that why he’s banning journalists and people he doesn’t like?

Musk has united the world!..... against him.

I remember EV car FUD mate, but plenty of "Rational critiques" were very much spot on. In 2022 we still don't have:

1. FSD (only beta)
2. Robotaxis
3. Hyperloop (and never will)
4. "Tech company" - It's funny that no one is even trying to argue this any-more.
5. "Energy company" - SolarCity is on coninous downwards path, solar tiles are insignificant and they are reselling chinese panels
6. Loops (regular kind, made by boring company). Even Vegas Loop is serviced by taxi drivers
7. Cybertruck.

The only things they actually delivered on were the "realistic" ones which is to produce and expensive EV Car & SUV.

I called it then that Tesla will become like Mazda small independent carmaker making quirky interesting cars or becomes bankrupt.

They exceeded expectations producing two times more cars then Mazda at his point and I'm sure that they will continue to grow, but the dreams of challenging Toyota are over (but no chance of suddenly going bankrupt either I think).

If you shoot from a shotgun many times you eventually hit something and then you can claim that's where you aimed.

Does he know that weibo literally stole Twitter code, almost byte for byte, and just created a ‘new’ website with more active users than twitter? Sounds a helluva lot cheaper than overpaying for a house of cards that apparently can be run by 13 people.

Says a man who spent billions on a company that is all about words (with characters limit though)

What do you think made you that type of person at the time and what made you learn?

Nobody in the world likes this dipshit besides other equally stupid dipshits.

And they are so unused to people saying anything real to them.

Deport him to China or South Africa

Obviously, the containment would be built out of concrete.

Otherwise it would be impossible, it would collapse on itself by stress alone rather quickly.

Anyway, my point is that Hyperloop is like wanting to make the concorde without making the 707 first.

And it may very well like the concorde end up being not practical.

Frankly, I don't see the need to be faster than 400km/h . That's what videoconferences are for

Was just younger. Was not a muskrat but definitely felt like if I liked something he did (or more appropriately, something his PR team said he did) he must not be all bad. Learned by learning he and others were just awful.

Honestly the bigger issue for me was with Gates. Kinda hard to see past the foundation, environmentalism, etc. At the end of the day can't just separate Microsoft's shitty behavior from him.

If you don't learn to separate the person from their actions they really sneak up on ya. Patagonia guy is the recent example. Does SOME good, sure, but he's just setting his wealth in stone.

Elon Musk's words show he's a kook.

Elon Musk's actions show he's a criminal.

Now we need to make the offline world equally unfit for them.

Yea, he "spent" billions. There's your action word

To be fairer, I'd give a handy for used Toyota Corolla. No frame damage <125k miles.

Obviously? Because none of the efforts or whitepaper tried that ...

Its why I've been banned from Twitter twice, Reddit once, and temporary suspended from both Facebook and Instagram more than I can count.

I fucking hate billionaires, and I want them to know they shouldn't exist. Whether that be peaceful or violent, I don't care.

Nobody is suggesting you build it with the materials of a thin pressure vessel .

Literally what Musk's whitepaper suggested.

I'm pretty sure that even that whitepaper doesn't suggest something that is meant to resist inward pressure instead of outward pressure

I don’t think he cares about that as much as Grimes leaving him for a trans woman (Chelsea Manning no less)

Nah. Tesla is missing its pitchman. The investors need someone who can make vapid promises that will rarely come to fruition all to pump up the stock and convince consumers to give Tesla interest-free loans.

It’s also sad as he used to be somewhat respectable but has driven his reputation into the dirt for no good reason whatsoever. He could have been a decent spokesperson for science, engineering and the like, but he has continued to say and do shit that makes him more divisive and less likeable to the average person

Omg I first read your post as massage instead of message.after reading the post about willing to give a handy for a car. I made myself laugh today

You're gross

[removed]

I had real problems separating Elon from that massage he gave me, too.

Tesla Board of Directors MIA

Hahaha epic.

His mum shouldn’t have convinced him he’s so special (their relationship is creepy) and he wouldn’t be having to go through this public humiliation. But if you surround yourself with sycophants….

althought, to be fair, if any of us had that spoiled, crackpot, degenerate of a father, we probably would be too.
Toxic, Eugenicist apple never falls far from the Toxic, Eugenicist tree

Note to self - this is what self destruction looks like

This is the wrong time to be absolutely oblivious to public sentiment, and unable to read the room. The economic pressure is hitting everyone, and he's whining and complaining the loudest. Smart billionaires STFU during downturns and don't criticize/aggravate/condescend their customers and labor force. They lay low and don't draw attention to how their lifestyles don't change one bit.

But remember, only a dollar a trip across the country! It’s so easy!

He probably meant to post on Weirdo, but those clumsy fingers tapped the wrong app.
