If people really want to take anti-Musk articles seriously, the hyperbole should be controlled. Elon's no saint, but his companies are not a criminal enterprise.
- dyauspitr 4mo agoI agree. He is a Nazi pos and I want to see him fail, but not his companies.
- spiderfarmer 4mo agoIt’s people like you that cause Tesla to have a massively inflated 25x the market cap of Volkswagen AG with only half the profits. The Cult of Tesla is too big to fail.
- dyauspitr 4mo agoWho else is atleast attempting to bring chip manufacturing to the US with terafab and that too while using another US companies’ most advanced chip since they will be using Intel’s 14A process. There’s a good chance this brings Intel back from a decline. I’m in full support of humanoid robots and Optimus could be promising. Both SpaceX and Starlink provide a lot of value.
- spiderfarmer 4mo agoThat's what scammers do. They always promise you the Next Big Thing.
- dyauspitr 4mo agoIt’s like talking to a wall. He has real products used by billions.
- anonymous_user9 4mo agoSo how many years can Tesla lie about FSD before it becomes a crime? How much CSAM and revenge porn can X generate before it becomes a crime? How many bribes can he give the president before it becomes a crime? How much data can his lackeys at DOGE exfiltrate before it becomes a crime? How many poor people can he kill before it becomes a crime? How many sig heils and eugenics memes can he emit until he's considered a bad person?
- holoduke 4mo agoHow many sig heila did he perform if I may ask? I saw one in a video. Are there more?
- ScoobleDoodle 4mo agoAt least one more. Elon Musk did two Nazi salutes in a row on video. Pointed at 2 different audience sections.
- sidcool 4mo agoNo he didn't. Neither did Mamdani.
- spiderfarmer 4mo agoThat one was enough for me. What’s your threshold?
- holoduke 4mo agoWas it really ment to mimic the fuhrer you think? Who told you that? I think it's a typical propaganda framing technique used to frame someone into a position.
- sirshmooey 4mo agoTry it out in front of your employer. Then prattle on about Great Replacement theory semi-regularly. See what happens.
- ScoobleDoodle 4mo agoIIRC SpaceX bought 20% of the Tesla Cyber Trucks in 2025. Shady af.
- wg0 4mo agoMight not be crimes but criminal behavior is pretty evident.
- tcp_handshaker 4mo ago>> are not a criminal enterprise They are, when they pay enough people, to change the market rules to raid your 401k
- comfysocks 4mo agoWhen the author says “crimes”, I didn’t take it to mean a literal criminal enterprise, but instead casual-speak for something like “bad governance”. It’s like if you saw some bad programming practices and casually called them “programming crimes” to avoid. Similarly, when the author says “trash bag”, I don’t take it to mean a literal trash bag.
- sidcool 4mo agoWell then it's up to interpretation. We differ at that. When someone says financial crimes, there is no second meaning to it
- tastyface 4mo agoHis unhinged attempts to destroy our government led directly to the deaths of thousands of Africans: https://www.currentaffairs.org/news/how-elon-musk-killed-hundreds-of-thousands-of-people https://www.currentaffairs.org/news/how-elon-musk-killed-hun... Possibly even hundreds of thousands: https://www.newyorker.com/culture/the-new-yorker-documentary/the-shutdown-of-usaid-has-already-killed-hundreds-of-thousands https://www.newyorker.com/culture/the-new-yorker-documentary... "Criminal" is far from the worst label that can legitimately be applied to this man. In fact, every article on Musk and his ventures should be prefaced with a note: "This vocal white supremacist has caused the deaths of thousands of people in third world countries through his reckless and destructive actions." I think when the histories are written, his legacy will be more Kissinger than Ford.
