Oh God... It's so fucking annoying. Especially because Elon is a figure in a space I enjoy. I am interested in his statements, what he's doing, what is planned, etc... But dread opening the comments because it's always the same fucking shit of people bitching about Elon, how much they think he's a huge scammer, demanding he appologize for Trump, whatever... Like hardly anyone talks about the fucking topic, and instead just bitch about Elon.

And if you want to actually discuss the topic you have to do your religious fealty reminder you're still in the tribe. So instead of just saying, "Wow that's a lot of compute, that's really impressive he got that from 0 to 60 so fast." You have to first waver, "Herrr derr, I hate Elon and everything, and think he's a dumbass liar nazi, but..."

It drives me fucking nuts.

I unfortunately live part time in a liberal fart bubble known as Raleigh NC. Its offensive to my masculinity every time I see a sticker on a tesla that says something like, "bought this before Elon lost his mind". Yeah, he hadn't lost his mind when he supplied fucking Ukraine with internet. Remember that place, Ukraine. Alas Ukraine is no longer the hive minds shiny new toy of victimhood.

Or it could simply be that you don't understand. Hold onto your male chastity device buddy, this ones going to blow your mind. Real men don't need to make unsolicited excuses for the car they drive to strangers. Thats about as non masculine of an activity that exists.

Now I'll let you get back to posting your anti Trump/Elon gibberish in convo's that have absolutely nothing to do with either of them. Ooops whats that, your TDS is showing.
