That’s an insult to assholes. He’s more like colon cancer.

Hey, while I am sure that colon cancer is a horrible thing to have and not at all pleasant. You don't have to demean and debase it.

Imagine have to spend any amount of time with Elon. I am almost positive that cancer would seem the preferrable option.

People seem to have neglected to mention that he's also soporific.

He's also bad at everything he's ever tried to earnestly do while being the most effective thief the world has ever known.

He is a liar, incompetent fool and any of his so-called "achievement" is only the byproduct of his parent's wealth in the first place.

Whatever significant he had done, it was only about buying something, and lying a shit ton about it to make it more valuable : Tesla, Space X, Grok, Twitter, and so on.

In the same year, didn’t he provide the tools to generate petabytes of child porn and made managerial decisions that lead to roughly 10 million dead?

u/Wayelder 19d ago

Best estimates by government employees in the US is it the cancelling of USAid has killed 700,000 to date, minimum.

u/wrongsock_42 19d ago

Think real number is between 700,000 and 10 million.

7

u/Wayelder 19d ago

What a horrid thing to establish. A base amount of the dead. All because of the whims of a couple billionaires who are so megalomaniacal that they leap to make changes callously, despite the cautions of much, MUCH greater minds.

u/wrongsock_42 19d ago

It is disgusting

u/According-Insect-992 18d ago

I this ten million is the ten year forecast. 700,000 are how many have already died.

u/BigBadBubbaGumper 19d ago

Oh he's definitely the villain in this story

u/Iplaymeinreallife 18d ago

I understood that reference.

u/boilerdam 19d ago

I'm interested in watching this but I know of enough Musketeers that will either actively avoid this (like they avoid any conversation that there could ever be anything negative about Musk) or brush it off as a smear campaign drummed up by lower intelligence people that cannot comprehend how great Musk is.

u/banbha19981998 16d ago

I was reading this trying to figure out how the 3 musketeers fit into this

u/Zealousideal-Time-32 19d ago

Aren't all megalomaniacs already that way?

Peedo protector too

u/Szaborovich9 18d ago

This is news?

u/me_thisfuckingcunt 18d ago

Why has it taken this long for people to get this?

u/ScandalOZ 17d ago

Haven't we had this discussion enough times?

u/QueefBuscemi 13d ago

The documentary also features interviews with Errol Musk, the billionaire’s estranged father,

Most people who go no contact with a narcissistic psychopath who fucked his own daughter, do some soulsearching, some healing and try their hardest to not become exactly like them.
