If you want accountability someone needs to have root access. If you don't want accountability, you are a politician getting kickbacks through obfuscation.

- kzrdude 2y agoThat's an empty argument. I think people hate musk, if they do, for the things he does and has done. It's not the other way around. Judging people for their actions is a fair way to look at it.
- bluescrn 2y ago> I think people hate musk, if they do, for the things he does and has done. No, they hate Musk for the things he says and has said (And things he allows other people to say on his platform). Some people treat actions more seriously than words. Others choose to treat words more seriously than actions.
- bloopernova 2y agoSome people have read history, and know that words turn into actions over time. Especially those that feed (and feed on) fear and hatred.
- bluescrn 2y agoYes, it happens. Somebody just shot up a Tesla dealership (that had recently also suffered an arson attempt), probably radicalised by online rhetoric. But on the other hand, regimes that crack down aggressively on speech don't tend to end up on the 'right side of history' either.
- beepbooptheory 2y agoIt might be a good reflection for you to consider why you still somehow feel like a victim in this precise moment.
- Capricorn2481 2y agoLuckily the right has never had radicalized violence, so let's give anyone with an "I love Trump" bumper sticker unfettered and non-transparent access to any resource they want. Trump fired the person investigating him, now Musk got to do the same. It's a Republican right of passage.
- wat10000 2y agoI can’t speak for others, but for me it’s all about his actions. First it was destroying Twitter, which was something I rather enjoyed using. Then, far worse, it was pouring vast resources into getting a terrible person elected.
- wat10000 2y agoI mostly liked Musk until he decided that a vindictive, incompetent moron was the best person to run the country, and poured vast resources into ensuring that happened. You might say this just shows it’s because I hate Trump. To which I’d ask, do you really think my description of the guy is inaccurate?
- TheCondor 2y agoThat someone needs accountability themselves. Musk is not elected, his role isn’t defined. Really, he’s a patsy, he can do what he does, fortify his corporations, maybe trim some waste, have a falling out with Trump (it’s inevitable) and then trump blames him for the damage.
