Well now he’s calling for a new election in the UK (presumably to put the right wing bac in) so looks like he’s not happy with just proxy ruling America.
Well, you have to remember, he’s an entitled NepoBaby manchild who grew up rich off an emerald mine in Apartheid South Africa, failed upwards into every position he’s ever held after blowing shit tons of money into failing companies, claims he knows more about manufacturing than anyone else despite his products getting recalled almost weekly and openly flaunting safety standards over the color of safety gear, and just overall is a massive dweeb who shills failed crypto scams and political grifts over on the Social Media platform he spent Too Much Money™️ on.
So yeah, of COURSE he thinks he can shadow-run 2 governments at once by funding Fascist takeovers. He’s just that stupid and entitled. And when it all blows up in his face one day, all I will do is laugh.
Haha right you are. It is in his nature, I suppose, to grasp and grasp after already being the richest person in history. In a better world, we would put people like Musk in a nice, humane institution.
He’s not the richest in history. Modern history, sure if you count excluding inflation. But when people like Mansa Musa existed Musk has quite a ways to go. Hell even Carnegie’s wealth eclipsed Musk if you’re talking purchasing power.
Musk has now surpassed Carnegie. You are right about Mansa Musa (for now), but the gap is closing. According to google today, Musk is at $334B, Carnegie peaked at a modest $309B, and Mansa Musa had about $400B, though there are quibbles about personal wealth vs. kingdom’s treasury. If you want to compare Musk and Musa, I think you could reasonably add the GDP of the US to Musk’s fortune, since he is one of the puppeteers behind Trump. All figures adjusted for inflation, by the way.
