For a while I was holding on to sanity thinking "he's an idiot and he's just drawing attention to himself." But now, to anyone that was still thinking "maybe he really is that clumsy, maybe he didn't really mean it", this is it. If you're not getting it now you never will. He's literally, in the literal sense of literally, a Nazi.

He’s doing the same shit Kayne was/is

In the same vein, Musk didn't make billions. Tesla workers did.

Can we agree to this and not the Hitler thing ?

[-] jerkface@lemmy.ca 59 points 1 month ago

I feel like absent Hitler, they would not have self organized to put people in ovens. Whereas the workers would still have gone out and produced wealth (for another capitalist).

[-] Damage@feddit.it 21 points 1 month ago

Ugh... Hitler was just the tip of a sick society. Does this mean every German at the time was guilty? No. Were they all innocent except him? No.
Does this still need to be debated outside of middle school? NO!

I was taught to have zero tolerance when it comes to Nazism. If you don't deal with them, they'll deal with you...

There is an unmarked ditch/grave for all the nazi soldiers and sympathizers from WWII near where I live. There is always room for more.

ZERO TOLERANCE, motherfuckers!

I've been reliably informed that, unlike Reddit, I can reply "Fuck Musk". I hope that's the case. If it isn't, still "Fuck Musk".

These CEOs always claim they can't do good for workers, because they need to please the shareholders. So now that the CEO of Tesla is sinking the company, where are these supposed all powerful merciless shareholders at? If I was a shareholder of Tesla I'd demand felon's head for doing all this damn to my investment.

Make him go, then. The world is watching. (Assuming you are American)

At this point I'm thinking the only thing that's going to restore our image on the world stage is if we go full Londo when the Vorlons were moving in on Centauri Prime.

Oh of course, if you fire all your public workers, you can't have a genocide because there's nobody to carry out your orders.

Silly fucking me.

I'm assuming we can look forward to all those cops and ICE agents being fired then.

[-] heavydust@sh.itjust.works 51 points 1 month ago

I know people need to eat and times are difficult, but I would have quit way before he said that. I still wonder why he has so many employees left.

[-] balssh@lemm.ee 73 points 1 month ago

Well because US is exactly shaped for the employee to be a modern slave: no social security net in case you are jobless so you have to get rolled over by the boss. Breaking point for most isn't the morality of the company but when they are endangered or can't provide for their families...

He also is famous for loving to post 14 flags under his posts. 14 is a white supremacist number called 14 words. He's 100% a Nazi and he does not hide it one bit.

Last I checked, being the man who oversees a genocide does not make you innocent. In fact, it makes you just as bad, if not worse, than the people following orders.

[-] suite403@lemmy.world 18 points 1 month ago

I'd say worse. In the least, people carrying out orders might be doing so out of fear for their own life. It doesn't excuse it, but on the scale I'd say that's much better than putting people in a position to kill or be killed.

[-] RBWells@lemmy.world 35 points 1 month ago

It sounds like a pretty good argument for pushing back against the administration and not following orders.

[-] MystikIncarnate@lemmy.ca 33 points 1 month ago

As much as "I was just following orders" is not enough to excuse someone of their responsibility in atrocities, "I was just issuing orders" will not excuse anyone either.

Anyone who thinks that just because someone didn't pull the trigger, that means they're not guilty, you can get your ass back in line to lick elons boots.

This is in the same vein as "Hitler did some good things" kind of cognitive dissonance. While the statement may not be wholly false, the fact that anyone could overlook everything he did that was bad, to find some small piece of something he did that can be construed as "good" is simply trying to put an objectively evil person into a better light, when they do not deserve it.

There are plenty of misunderstood people in history that did very good things, and were killed/maimed/murdered/imprisoned/tarred/feathered/whatever, because they did something that the wrong people saw as bad.

Nobody should ever try to find a shining light of good deep down in the black abyss of Hitler's life.

[-] ICastFist@programming.dev 19 points 1 month ago

Reminds me of a Brazilian advert for a magazine in the 90s. It started with some large black and white dots, slowly zooming out, and the narration went something like:

"This man was an artist. When he took power, his country was in a deep economic recession, but he brought prosperity back and made it home to some of the most important industrial companies still functioning today. To this day, many people look up to him. This man... (zoom out finishes) was Adolf Hitler.

It's possible to tell a lie telling only truths."

This will do wonders for him in Germany.

Not. At this rate the German gov might start sanctioning his local company/factory.

Jesus fuck already. Why can't this fuck hole skip to the bullet-temple, doused-in-accelerant, ignited-in-a-ditch phase of his life. He's so fucking thirsty for it.

Musk needs to be strapped into a chair, "Clockwork Orange" style and forced to watch all 9 hours of "Shoah."

[-] TempermentalAnomaly@lemmy.world 19 points 1 month ago

"Mr. Musk, you recently shared a post that mentioned the workers were the ones who killed people and not Hitler without elaboration. Do you believe that Hitler bears no responsibility?"

Good thing they are arresting those scary antisemitic campus protesters.

Has the ADL responded to Elon yet?
