He said that then, what's he doing about it now? Haven't heard anything from that loser
I guarantee he forgot
Like he forgot about ending world hunger with US$21B
That was probably before the prospect of him becoming the world's first trillionaire.
got a new government contract. he's fine, the AC is on, he's deathspiraling twitter and bent out of his mind on ketamine
He rich enough for the requisite bribe (literally called a gift)
Wasn’t he was lying then too? He came on a student visa to my understanding.
So he's going to do a bunch of ketamine about it.
So Elon is just quoting Tropic Thunder to sound tough now?
I just finished re watching it a minute ago. Then I get on Lemmy and see this!
Thanks for confirming it, what a coincidence ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ
Insert "Watch out! We got a real badass over here." meme here
Elon just went to UK telling white people there that they need to overthrow parliament now or the immigrants will kill them all.
You need an archive link, especially to an Elon Musk tweet. You and anyone else who wants to provide one, have about 30 minutes, or I'll have to remove it.
Thanks, I appreciate it.
Imagine having more money than an entire city and still being a dweeb who has to fall in line behind an old man
An old man...that is so evil and inept that he bankrupted many casinos and raped children.
You know, I'm ok with people riding on other people's coattails, it's a way of life that's been done for centuries and centuries. However if a person chooses to stand behind a kiddie fiddling, casino bankrupting, woman assaulting, failed reality TV starring, felony having, blatant racist and convicted rapist then that person is almost as bad.
And in some ways it makes them a worse person. "Ok, I know this person did all this absolutely terrible shit...yet this is the guy I follow" is pretty much admitting you'd do the same shit. Or that you have done it, but you were so good at hiding it all that you won't get caught out. Or you are so useless that you won't get away with it so you won't try it, but you really want to.
The real tragedy is why these obvious drains on society are still alive.
So if we had gotten rid of this a long time ago we wouldn't have to hear about that asshole all the time? Count me in
No, he went to the US on a student visa and then illegally started a business
someone should call ICE about that African illegal immigrants
Wow, he really went to war on that one:
Godspeed Captain ketamine o7
He was saying that last December. It's been nine months of him "going to war on this the likes of which we cannot comprehend"
Yeah from what I've seen he's done nothing, but I just might not be able to comprehend what he's doing
Fool though you may be, never assume you are stupider than Elon Musk.
To be fair, he did warn that we couldn’t possibly comprehend this kind of war
He could afford to fill all his companies with H1B's, and pay the fees personally, and not even notice the cost. Also, wasn't he in the country by over-staying a student visa?
Really? Tesla has ~125k employees. If all of them were fresh H1Bs, that's $10B. Tesla's net income is ~$7B, so in year one, that would create a deficit. If spread over the 6 years of an H1B, that would represent a nearly $2B, and that's assuming everyone stuck around for the full 6 years.
Yes, he could afford it, but he'd certainly notice.
He could afford to fill all his companies with H1B’s
I just showed the cost of doing that for one company.
My point is to show how these costs can add up.
H1B is the work visum that allows him to stay in the USA?
What "issue" did he promise to go to war for, last christmas?
I'm missing context, but I'm not the least bit surprised that all his tweets are grandiose exaggerations.
edit: thanks for explaining it to me!
No he originally came to the US on an educational visa, and then violated it by overstaying and working on starting his business. H1B is what allows him and the other billionaires to import indentured servants who can't leave their companies.
Sounds like Dubai minus the passport confiscation.
H1B is the visa that allows rich company owners like him to exploit cheap high tech talent. He can hire an aerospace engineer from India to work at SpaceX in Texas with it. He can also pay that engineer a percentage of what an American aerospace engineer would get. Furthermore he can force that Indian engineer to work a huge amount of hours. If the engineer tries to stand up for himself, threatens to quit, etc. then SpaceX can just fire him and send him back to India. If he quits SpaceX then he has to almost immediately find a new company to sponsor his H1B visa, or it’s also back to India for him. And good luck job hunting without SpaceX catching wind of it when you’re working 10 hour days 6 days a week for them.
That's fucked up.
Well it wasn’t meant to be used that way, but my understanding is that the wording of the visa program is vague enough that it can be exploited this way. And the rich assholes who exploit it this way make sure the politicians get nice big donations to keep it from being changed.
I'm pretty sure US's immigration legislation is meant to be used exploitatively, getting the good cheap work without giving much in return. If not explicitely then through loopholes, but very much with purpose. And not only since Trump.
I mean one should not expect any less from the Mecca of capitalism. Laws will be written to serve capital.
It let him pseudo slave phds and other high technical professionals from around the world.
He's a citizen now
Illegally. Cause he liiiiiiiiiieeed
No, his citizenship allows him to stay.
H1Bs are for skilled labor immigrants. I work with a few and it's a complicated mess that makes it difficult to switch jobs (we just hired one and it took weeks to get the authorization for the new employee to work, despite already having a visa). It also makes it difficult for me to promote people, since we need to open a position for the new role and prove we can't easily hire for it.
I thought he was an illegal immigrant for a long time before he went through the process to naturalized. Didn't his brother say that?
I was going to say they need to get out of there before ICE catch them until I saw the poster name, and now I hope that they do.
Where’s the bot farm constantly spamming him with this
The Cheetah's are dinning on luxury meals tonight.
Fuck musk fuck trump fuck em all
Wasn't he and his skidmark brother here illegally?
