The rest of it is just too ghoulish to even engage with, but why the fuck is Musk so obsessed with the letter X?
looks the closest to the swastika
You're not wrong. Besides having a vague visual similarity, the character also carries its own symbolic association. In English, "X" is mystery, and the unknown. It's a signature, or a mark. Thirty years ago, it was used frequently in marketing to connect with "eXtreme" sports culture.
Musk thinks it's the coolest letter because he's a child.
Musk is absolutely autistic. Nothing about him tells me he has normal thought patterns at all, so no point deciphering them.
Does that mean he deserves a pass or pity for a disability - hell no. You can be disabled and still be an asshole.
He might be autistic, but that's not a diagnosis you can make just watching someone online. It's also not helpful to discuss.
We can tell though, that he's a man-child, accustomed to being handed everything he wants, incapable of any introspection: all symptoms of extreme wealth
He's a classic internet edgelord. "Autistic" is the spin doctor code word for antisocial. To them the thinly veiled nazi references are the height of comedy. The overall theme is that they think they're operating on a meta level such that everyone else isn't in on the joke.
I don't think this is so much a wealth factor as much as it is right wing culture rot that plagues young men. Though obviously Elon isn't young anymore but this culture dates back as old as he is. His fanboys love him because of all this. He is who they see in themselves. They are very smart but too lazy to achieve their potential because reasons. If only they had unlimited money they could beat the (((system))) that is conspires to oppress them for who they are. Namely being right leaning cis hetero white male.
Money didn't break him. Without money he's just another of the millions of basement dwellers who would be fanboying over some other right wing oligarch.
It also just happens to be 88 in the ascii table. Could be a coincidence... but none of these fuckers deserve the benefit of the doubt at this point.
FFS. Wow. Can't believe I missed that one.
holy shit
new lore just dropped
How inciteful (sic)!
He wanted to call Paycom something X. He has been obsessed with it for awhile.
He’s such a fucking piece of shit! Words cannot describe how I wish very much that he ends up dead every day. He’s a disgrace to the human race.
All this wealth he could be using to help humanity and this is his angle; To put down people who aren’t straight white fascist nazis.
Fuck F’Elon Musk.
tips fedora
F’Elon
I'm so glad this can be said on this platform.
His. Own. Fucking. Flesh. And. Blood.
How lower can you get you fucking vermin?
When they see children as the means to an end, it's easy for them to be inhumanly low
He is a full blown actual sociopath, he doesn't care about anyone else but himself

His first girl (not counting Vivian) was born in approx 2022. He has 14 kids, and they're almost all male. This isn't coincidence, especially since most of the early children were the result of IVF, where it's possible to select the sex. This is part of why he's so angry. He only wanted male children, he paid for male children, and one of his male children had the nerve to not be male in defiance of his wishes.
Why does his naming conventions feel like he's populating a Warhammer 40k fanfic? At first I was like "Well Vivian sounds normal" and then I remembered that she chose that name and her dead name (which fucking gross Elon posted) definitely fits the 40k paradigm.
Yep, he bought her. She's his purchased property and she's not doing what he paid for. I'm so fucking angry about this
Wait, why is she in teen vogue if she's 20?
Also if he hadn't IVF'd Vivian, she'd have been born the right gender, female. Her dysphoria is literally his fault.
EDIT: I am dumb and don't know how anything works
Also if he hadn't IVF'd Vivian, she'd have been born the right gender, female. Her dysphoria is literally his fault.
I'm all for bashing Elon, but gender dysphoria does occur in naturally conceived persons.
Also if he hadn't IVF'd Vivian, she'd have been born the right gender, female
That's not how ivf works. More likely she wouldn't have been born at all because she would have had to compete with a few million sperm instead of being specifically chosen in a lab.
You don't have to be a teenager to be featured in teen vogue. Just interesting to teenagers (and I can understand why Vivian has the spotlight on her).
Also, that's not how genetics work. Vivian is the result of that specific egg and sperm. She never would've been born with XX chromosomes. Someone else would've been born.
If we want to laugh at Musk though, we can point out how the venn Diagramm of autistic people and trans people is practically a circle. Musk trying to select all "males" during IVF was always doomed to fail, especially the more kids he had. He's so dumb and desparate for control he thought he could pick his kids' identities through their very genetics.
I hope Vivian has a kick ass life just the way she is. :)
A bit off-topic: In a darwinistic sense selecting only male offspring via in-vitro-fertilization is a bad strategy (by Elon). Females are more likely to propagate their genes than males on average, but Musk does not care?
That's a bit like saying "It's illogical for Herr Hitler to mistreat the jews. If what he really cares about is the German People, surely that aim is best served by retaining expertise where it is available."
Imagine a complete and totally irredeemable asshole that also never matured past age 13 and you have imagined Elon Musk.
I was thinking of Trump first and foremost, but yeah Musk also fits that bill.
Fucking hell. That tweet is so cruel. I hope one day he comes back from the dark place he currently finds himself and looks back on this episode with shame.
He won't. I've been following this asshole for well over half a decade now... He doesn't care about anyone but himself. He goes out of his way constantly to make things worse for "the helpers" Mr. Rogers' mother told us to look for (e.g. one of the heroes that saved all of those kids many years back that Elon baslessly labeled a "pedo" for literally no good reason.)
If the woke mind is a virus
How is he immune?
The implication is the he and other "real men" I.e hate spewing bigots, have a strong "immune system" but the rest of us are weak.
It's another way they seek to feel superior to us peasants.
Nice for Vivian to could hold a distance from that monster and avoid personality issues. She seems clear and strong in her mind.
Can't say the same for the meat shield. He's probably gonna become an asshole like his father.
Elon is literally the character in 12 Angry Men that’s angry at their child and is lashing out. Billionaires are to powerful, this is ridiculous.
I'm joining the war on the woke mind virus on the side of the woke mind virus.
All these people "owning" Elon while paying him for blue checks. This is what fake opposition looks like.
He gives them out for free often, a significant portion of the blue checks you see aren't people actually paying for them.
Can someone get on that
Zuckerberg tried but Elon's mom said no.
Vivian is a lovely name!
This sub is Musk spam.
So cringe
But he's kind of right, isn't he? Xavier Musk did die, and Vivian Wilson was born.
Is Elon a pro-trans activist and his recent slide to the far-right has just been a meticulously orchestrated plan to get him embedded in the Trump White House?... probably not, more likely it was the ketamine talking.
Everybody wants rich parents until they see what rich parents can do if your rich parents don't like you.
Enough Musk Spam
