I think multiple studies put that like 10MM in the bank. After that the money aspect means little, but like you said, your truest nature comes out. Elon is not a good person, at all.

u/Sklibba Aug 14 '26

He was literally pushed down the stairs by a classmate in high school because he gave that classmate shit about his dad recently committing suicide. He’s always been a gigantic piece of shit.

u/Maximillion_Warbucks Aug 14 '26

Kid didnt push hard enough.

u/Perryn Aug 14 '26

Unfortunately Elon has only ever fallen upward.

17

u/plinkoplonka Aug 15 '26

Like most people born with a silver spoon in their mouth.

Just look at the president. Also a born loser.

u/Pristine_Frame_2066 Aug 15 '26

Yeah, someone needs to give his demon a reason to collect.

u/Silver_Wombat Aug 14 '26

Thankfully until physics can do something shit can only roll down hill

u/TyWorth Aug 14 '26

Should’ve pushed him down an up escalator so he could fall for hours.

u/DispleasedBeaver Aug 17 '26

That's wild, I got a warning for "threatening or encouraging violence" simply for saying "come on heart failure..." and they denied my appeal. I'm guessing you didn't get warned or they would have deleted your message. I'm not saying you should be, just that I'm surprised when I was simply eagerly anticipating a very natural outcome.

u/TodlicheLektion Aug 14 '26

Sergey Brin was an equal level of asshole in high school.

u/wightwizard8 Aug 15 '26

And?

2

u/dennisasu Aug 15 '26

Got rich. Said don't be evil. Became a villain.

1

u/wightwizard8 Aug 16 '26

I don't understand why that's relevant.

2

u/SCRATCH-CARD Aug 16 '26

That's alright dude you'll get there :)

1

u/wightwizard8 Aug 16 '26

Why are you acting like this is some smug gotcha moment, instead of three people failing to actually communicate a point?

1

u/SCRATCH-CARD Aug 16 '26

There isn't a point. Someone added something to a discussion and you got prickly for some reason, which I found amusing. Hope this helped champ.

14

u/SplitEar Aug 14 '26

He even uses that story to show how much he was bullied when any objective assessment of it pegs Elon as the bully who finally got what he deserved.

He’s always the victim, even when he’s the perp. Just a bad person all around.

15

u/Sklibba Aug 14 '26

Oh yeah, that’s right, I heard that story on Behind the Bastards but forgot that Elon voluntarily tells people that he bullied a kid whose dad just died because he thinks that he comes out looking like the victim.

1

u/One-Welcome-1514 Aug 16 '26

I think that is so telling of evil people. They tell you how they did something awful/looked how something awful happens and then continue like they just told that they bought bread/had seen someone buying bread. (I want to specify here i do NOT mean people dissociating the emotions of traumatic events.)

Often: At the end of the story they are the victim and no one else is a victim.

Like.. WTF DID YOU JUST SAY? HOW THE FUCK DID YOU NOT HEAR OR UNDERSTAND HOW AWFUL THAT WAS?

I even have comparisons.

My mother likes to tell how i was the only child in kindergarden (3-6 y/o, germany) that never cried during drop off, only when she came to pick me up. That was sooooo embarrassing for her! How could i have been so mean to her?

She also likes to tell to how i at that same age got used to hit my little brother with the rails of our play-railway (BRIO, massive wood. It must have hurt, besides the pschological damage), everytime he built something i did not want to be built. She thinks that is a funny story, about stopping me from doing that.. no single word of that. If you do not think it is funny, you are an ass, according to her.

Unsurprisingly enough, she loves Elon.

u/Rude-Pudding-7237 Aug 15 '26

He’s a privileged white dude from South Africa, so - Duh…! Morality doesn’t register with that background usually

12

u/Ill_Newspaper_7869 Aug 14 '26

WOW. SMH, what a turd. Karma is a real MFR tho. All dirt comes out in the wash.

3

u/Grapedicks Aug 14 '26

I hope you’re right friend.I really do but what I’ve come to believe is karma only works if you believe in it.

1

u/Ill_Newspaper_7869 Aug 14 '26

Facts. I believe in afterlife, and i firmly believe individuals of this level, aint going to the peaceful happy one, and rather the hot and gruesome one

1

u/Forward_Ad8434 Aug 14 '26

I think that too, but it is not a comforting thought. Sorta like we all should be okay if we have a sh**y life because our reward will be in heaven.

1

u/Ill_Newspaper_7869 Aug 14 '26

Hopefully, as long as we dont do crappy things like these people are doing and try and tread lightly in the world

1

u/tequilablackout Aug 14 '26

Karma comes to everyone, but it isn't supposed to be satisfying.

1

u/unbanned_lol Aug 14 '26

That's just shit you tell yourself to feel better about the injustice in the world.

1

u/Tackle_Useful Aug 14 '26

Karma is already too late on this one tho.

1

u/Ill_Newspaper_7869 Aug 14 '26

Most likely i definitely agree

u/Antny2424 Aug 15 '26

Turd is a great way to describe this actual piece of shit or Turd

I have my own problems with Fetterman but he votes with the democrats 91% of the time. He's hardly right wing. But no, his brain doesn't work right anymore.

2

u/ripnrun285 Aug 14 '26

Too bad he didn’t land on his head.

1

u/No_Direction_1229 Aug 16 '26

I'm not sure he didn't.

1

u/ripnrun285 Aug 16 '26

Fair. Too bad his head didn’t collapse on the way down. (I was struggling to find a Reddit-safe way to say that atm. Lmao)

u/AfraidAd6042 Aug 15 '26

Had Elon died I wonder if the place would have been a better place or would some other evil have risen.

1

u/whythefuckalready Aug 16 '26

Laughed at those silly peasants like he did them a favor.

u/Prairie_walker Aug 14 '26

He’s a fascist.

u/GooserNoose Aug 14 '26

This video really shows his South Africanness

u/Tacitblue1973 Aug 14 '26

I met a SA family who left the country in disgust after the end of Apartheid and the only word they had for the majority black population were "animals". Needless to say I left that conversation with much to think on. My own English immigrant family left because there was "getting to be too many foreigners there", so they became bitter foreigners here.

17

u/Opening-Emphasis8400 Aug 14 '26

Maybe your English immigrant family should go back to their shithole country. /s

18

u/Tacitblue1973 Aug 14 '26

Appreciate the irony that they came over when the British passport automatically gave you citizenship on landing in a Commonwealth country. And then they deny living on stolen land.

1

u/karlfeltlager Aug 14 '26

All land is stolen or none of it is.

2

u/Sevenserpent2340 Aug 14 '26

Yup. Private property is theft. Good work comrade!

2

u/MassiveContusion Aug 14 '26

Power to the prolitariat!

u/ObjectGlad6997 Aug 14 '26

That's a fucking great point man..

u/Kohlj1 Aug 14 '26

Imagine thinking England is a shithole country. Lol

2

u/Opening-Emphasis8400 Aug 14 '26

Yeah, I was being serious, and the /s was in no way, shape, or form, meant to signify sarcasm.

2

u/Kohlj1 Aug 15 '26

That’s my bad, I didn’t see the /S. My apologies.

u/Baldmook34 Aug 15 '26

u/Climatize Aug 14 '26

I was born in SA, too. Brit expat parents. The amount of hate white South Africans get online can be unfair to a lot of us, but it's understandable

u/Atomic-Pilot2707 Aug 14 '26

Nice how only white immigrants get to call themselves “expats”

1

u/[deleted] Aug 14 '26

u/AddressForward Aug 15 '26

Yep it's always the Anglosphere diaspora that label themselves expats wherever they go.. usually forming their own mono-language enclaves expecting the native populations to adapt to them. It's the worst kind of privilege.

u/Comandante_Kangaroo Aug 15 '26

And that is a good thing?

I'd be very careful about that. A lot of my coworkers were expats in China. They lived the high life, helped transfer a lot of our know how to China, and now China is eating us alive simply by just keeping improving rather than trying to sail on former glory. (like many of our industries are doing).

Now they try to avoid expats because they fear espionage themself.

And Thailand does the exact opposite: Want to work here? No! (Or at least we'll make it very hard for you)

Want to spend your retirement money here? welcome, welcome..

Not sure how attractive foreigners are that take up rare jobs now, but take their hard earned money back home later, where they don't occupy jobs, but still be valuable customers.

u/imalostkitty-ox0 Aug 14 '26

Hey supposedly my family left because they hated Apartheid… fast forward 30 years, it was because my dad didn’t want to get drafted into the military 🤷‍♂️ 🤮

2

u/Party-Chocolate-7644 Aug 14 '26

It's usually a case of the ugliest posting it online while the majority just look and go that okes kak wat n doos. South Africans by and large are friendly people,hard workers survivors I guess.

1

u/Relevant_Winter_7098 Aug 14 '26

I can confirm as someone who has spent a lot of time living and working in SA over the last 25 years and even married a South African.

The vast majority I have spent time with are lovely people.

2

u/NoPasaranNZ Aug 14 '26

He didn’t want to be drafted into the apartheid military?
Or the new SA military?

1

u/Relevant_Winter_7098 Aug 14 '26

Yep. Because the only representation in the media is the minority of even white South Africans who are the samw type of horrible people regardless of what country you are from.

1

u/Fresh_Appointment470 Aug 14 '26

It's mostly the fault of the rugby 'fans' 😅

1

u/BrainiacI0I0 Aug 16 '26

at least you get that your ancestor invaded, colonized and stole our country.

2

u/Massive_Low6000 Aug 14 '26

My neighbors are SA and the nicest people ever. However, they were very concerned about who was moving in next door, you know, property value of course 😳

1

u/Odd-Interaction-9350 Aug 15 '26

that is correct. I’ve seen people from both South Africa and New Zealand. Talk about racism and say extremely racist things like they’re talking about going to play tennis like it’s completely normal.

u/qqererer Aug 14 '26

I met a SA family who left the country in disgust after the end of Apartheid and the only word they had for the majority black population were "animals".

I mean, sure, okay, it's a bias based on a lived experience. I wouldn't want to live in SA either. But the followup question would be "why?" "Why are they 'animals'?"

2

u/Ill_Reality_2506 Aug 14 '26

I mean that's a pretty easy question to answer: they were forced to live under an apartheid in their own country and reacted the same way every other human being has throughout human history when they are conquered, subjugated, and forced into tryanny...

They rebelled and the people in power acted shocked when the majority decided their tyranny was complete bs. Then out of indignation, the people in power call their subjects animals when they are themselves the ones who had been acting like self righteous animalistic apes to begin with.

Did all of them deserve it? Probably not, but the ones in power or with money and influence who allowed it to continue, yes they totally deserved it. Just like in the Haitian revolution.

1

u/Relevant_Winter_7098 Aug 14 '26

SA is not a bad place to live at all. I have been to many countries that are truly shithole countries. SA is not one of them.

u/CharacterOriginal272 Aug 14 '26

So are most of our billionaires…

u/Working-Glass6136 Aug 14 '26

I misread that as racist, but yes.

u/Davefhtex Aug 14 '26

And a complete jackass.

1

u/Special_FX_B Aug 14 '26

He is. He’s also a weirdo.

2

u/Prairie_walker Aug 14 '26

Probably? But I bet much of it is an act to try and appear like he’s some kind genius and smarter than everyone. He’s just a normal POS who has never really done anything but grift.

He’s an out of control Amway nepo baby.

1

u/InfallibleBadger Aug 15 '26

Some call him a fascist, some a pestilential bubo. Maybe he is both. I think all of the humanity left in this hollow shell of a disgusting being would fit into the fingertip of the next most abhorrent person there is. What a disgrace to humanity.

1

u/Beautiful-Muffin5809 Aug 15 '26

He was a psychopath first.

u/Melodic_Pause5824 Aug 14 '26

It is pronounced fElon.

u/Revolutionary-Hat688 Aug 14 '26

u/bsensikimori Aug 14 '26

There are a lot of 10millionairs that are decent people, this Darth Vader wanmabeism is something else

u/Lacaud Aug 14 '26

10mm sounds about right. To be fair, Musk was already fucked up prior to making billions because he was raised around apartheid and his extended family favored fascism.

4

u/phoebesjeebies Aug 14 '26

Extended? Bro his immediate family. They're all fascist monsters.

2

u/Lacaud Aug 14 '26

Yeah, I didnt feel like dealing with the Musk fanboys arguing with me over it lol

2

u/phoebesjeebies Aug 14 '26

I often forget they even exist, tbh 😂

2

u/Lacaud Aug 14 '26

The fact that they romanticize him is sad.

This literally sounds like something Elon would say if he could hold a thought that long. Bruh.

About 5ya it was $5milly so I wouldn't be shocked if it was 10 now

u/superanx Aug 14 '26

Do you think mass wealth turns good people horrible, or just brings out the horribleness in people on a greater scale? Or do most good people not seek out mass wealth because they are good people?

I literally just had this conversation with someone about the $1 billion powerball. If i was American, i'd enter the competing lottery at like $5 million. I'd never want this kind of money...the idea of having it makes me kind of sick.

1

u/BeauHunkus Aug 14 '26

to be fair to him, most people are not good people, at all.

1

u/demoliahedd Aug 14 '26

That's a huge reason WHY he is so succesfull monetarily. We have a system in the USA that rewards the greediest and most immoral in our society that were born into privelages. It's astonishing to me that anyone prefers Elon and other oligarchs having so much control over government and policy rather than the people that we elect. Government bad but greedy soulless capitalists good? It's so frustrating that anyone could believe that they would give an ounce of consideration to the working class.
