It’s an act.
Elon spent the entire Superbowl hanging out in Rupert’s suite. These assholes planned all this shit.
And he’s done with Elon. Elon got used like the tool he is by Thiel, Murdoch and Trump. Musk scapegoat can now be sacrificed however they see fit
Yeah, they all use each other. They only see other people as something to consume and Elon was the one who everyone else pinned the blame on. Of the US suffers a systemic failure the blame is immediately directed at Elon or Trump. Both are fall guys for the billionaires using them.
Don’t disagree with you but I’m not sure what the goal here is if they’re both in on it
I don’t disagree that this was planned, but I am not so sure Elon was ever really completely in on it the whole time, even if he thought he was.
He’s a narcissist, so it seems unlikely he’d be ok with his mental health being questioned and looking like such a failure in the public spotlight.
I hate that Nikola Tesla is associated with the Musk brand. He was a way better man than Musk (and Edison).
Nobody cares, Elon
I’ve said it before but I’ll say it again bc this just seems so obvious.
I really think Peter Theil intentionally fucked him over again and made Musk a scapegoat. Not saying that to get people to feel bad for Elon, just pointing it out bc if true, it’s such a weird cruel intentions like mind game he’s been playing for years, but now he’s raised the stakes to involve so much power and corruption on a world stage.
Idk if it’s just bc Theil really hates him or if it’s just bc he’s really a sociopath like Elon says. It would be odd for him to have it in so much for one person if it was just a sociopath thing though. Like it seems more like a personal vendetta.
When Theil and Musk worked together at PayPal, Thiel took advantage of Musk leaving for his honeymoon for two weeks, and then while he was away, called a board meeting to vote Musk out. Apparently it really changed the way Musk thought about a work life balance, and he never really was the same afterwards.
Flashforward to 2025. For months, starting on January 20th, Musk was constantly being presented by the press as this untouchable god like figure that couldn’t be removed from Trump’s office.
Looking back now though, it seems like they maybe just got Elon to handle all the dirty work, attach his face and name to some truly despicable shit, made him the most hated man in the country, then gradually everything shifted. The press made him look like an annoying nuisance who was disrespected by all the “adults in the White House,” and got everyone to start questioning if his mental health was spiraling,
Once the Senate confirmed Theil’s protege as Trump’s science advisor in charge of handling all technology and AI policy it was like somebody told Musk his services were no longer necessary. Kinda like they no longer needed Elon to leave his fingerprints on everything.
Meanwhile Thiel has been successfully lurking in the shadows making some very successful deals.
Yeah, but he can’t do no A.I.
That is such a weird little krewe though. Like honestly can you imagine how fucking awful and just so awkward it would be?
Like Yarvin and Theil I kind of get bc they’re both tech bros. Vane is the wildcard. What do they even talk about when they get together and hang out? Just general evil dickhead stuff?
They are both pieces of shit. Theil just stays under the radar about it.
Example of Elmo being a fucking POS:
During the pandemic, around April and May of 2020 when it was spreading far and wide and we had literally no way to combat it, I watched Musk have an absolute meltdown because he wasn’t being allowed to force people back into Tesla factories at the risk of their lives because he was afraid that the delay in manufacture would hurt his stock price. Fuck that asshole.
And BTW, he made himself the bad guy in DOGE. Every stupid thing he has done there, he has tweeted some stupid meme bullshit about it to taunt the people who rely on those services. Every person he has fired he has publicly mocked.
Oh, and BTW he fucking chose to pull a god damned Nazi salute on national television. Absofuckinglutely NO ONE made his dumb ass do that.
Elon Musk isn’t a victim and I hope to fuck everything he values becomes lost to him. (I.E. his money)
Definitely, don’t get me wrong. Musk was not innocent in any of that. Theil is a Nazi too he just didn’t get on stage in front of the whole world and do a fucking salute (twice). They are both pieces of shit, but like yin and Yang pieces of shit. I think Theil knew he would be able to use Musk’s inability to keep anything to himself to his advantage.
Just kind of funny/bizarre to think about the possibility that one evil villain piece of shit essentially mean girlsed another evil villain piece of shit, in what seems to be an ongoing feud that has lasted for several decades, but somehow keeps escalating.
Robyn Denholm: Earlier today, there was a media report erroneously claiming that the Tesla Board had contacted recruitment firms to initiate a CEO search at the company. This is absolutely false (and this was communicated to the media before the report was published). The CEO of Tesla is Elon Musk and the Board is highly confident in his ability to continue executing on the exciting growth plan ahead.
“Exciting growth” as in aggressive malignant cancer of democracy and civic decency?
