To be honest as someone who works alongside these people occasionally: That's a rather small security detail and I know of people with far far less money that have bigger security details.

20 people is not even a close protection detail, a chase car and an advance party plus medics, even less so if you consider that some people will be off duty, etc.

I mean, someone with a high capacity magazine could make short work of even 20 guys. And they aren't gonna be able to do shit against any kind of explosives.

If one of them can be turned, and someone from Musk’s own security team goes Luigi, they’d be a hero and every single authoritarian across the globe would suddenly come to fear their own security squad.

Good.

That means he's scared.

Capitalist scumbags live in golden prisons of their own making.

Meanwhile I can go almost anywhere on the planet alone without any major problems.

"Even if you win the rat race, you're still a rat."

It's wild to me how Musk is proving (just like Trump is) how fundamentally weak and small he is.

Fred Rogers never had to travel with a single bodyguard.

Stalkers = women demanding child support.

Any history buffs?

Is there any similarities to Praetorian Guard with the rise of private security for these rich?

Like wasn't Rome at some point actually controlled by Praetorian Guards in secret because they were so powerful that the emperors couldn't defy them.

Is he still using his own child as a human shield?

Remember when UHC got shot, musk started using one of his children as a human shield. He would often hold the shield in front of him, Everytime he does a press release

That's what happens when you're an unlikable piece of shit who's irresponsible actions ruins peoples lives irl

I sometimes ask myself if 90% of Lemmy consists of hobby-revolutionaries....

”Homicidal maniacs”? Do they need to be maniacs?

His bodyguards must be lucky all the time, whereas...

Have you seen the comments in any tesla or musk thread? I'd sleep with 20 body guards if I were him and the rest of the world was as crazy as lemmy's neckbeard basement dwelling Linux obsessed hivemind 😂

You can still do it!

Elon Musk, father of 14 children was basically never seen with his kids until a CEO was shot. Now he always travels with at least one portable meat shield.

Luigi, a job creator

Good. Stay lonely with the gang of dudes you have to pay to hang around you and whose only job is to keep people away from you.

I just went to see a movie with a big group of friends and now getting a burger, before tonight I work on a creative project with some other friends who all really respect and appreciate each other's talents.

Something this fascist freak will never have.

“Foundation Security” 🙄

Probably related to the Foundation series from Isaac Asimov and Musk’s absurd idea that he is remotely a figure in some such space story.

Not xSecurity?

Not a single one of them would take a bullet for him.

Who is going to protect him from his own security personnel?

it's almost like championing certain 'activists' and then being shocked when people don't like you is a predictable outcome. who'd have thought.

Is the human shield kid a security professional too? By the time he's 18 he will have 16 years of bodyguard experience, the perfect employee just like in those entry level job ads.
