Summary

At a Wisconsin rally, Elon Musk complained about personal attacks and financial losses tied to his role as head of the DOGE.

He insisted he’s not stealing from Social Security, saying it’s actually costing him money—citing Tesla stock’s sharp drop.

Musk whined about Governor Tim Walz mocking the stock’s decline, calling him “a big jerk.”

Despite the criticism, Musk is pouring millions into Wisconsin’s Supreme Court race, while lamenting the pressure he faces for pushing controversial reforms.

      Even given the most charitable reading that he was doing a Nazi salute to troll people instead of because he’s an actual Nazi, the whole intention behind trolling is to piss people off.

      And I’m not inclined to give this steaming coprolite any charity, because he acts like a fuckin’ Nazi.

      (I’m not going to play along with the whole “he said his heart goes out” bullshit. Other Nazis sure knew what he was doing and loved it.)

        You don’t even need this to have happened given what he’s done with DOGE and his buying an election. People would have still hated him, just not as many.

        Unrelated (completely related) : chatgpt refuses to acknowledge musk having anything to do with Nazis, even when presented with facts about his “memes” and his Nazi salutes. And will not write a story about musk and his Nazi associated acts.

        It will happily tell you stories about Hitler.

        He uses all the Nazi secret code shit. Like his fascination with the letter X for example which is modern Nazi code for Heil Hitler. Saying that Hitler did not kill millions of people. He throws it right out there and expects the world to ignore it.

        The thing is that he is the defacto ruler of the US right now. So his words are important, regardless of them all being nothing but gaslighting whiney bullshit.

      I’m not certain that’s true. Even if he knew it was bullshit at some point. If you surround yourself with bullshit you stop being able to smell it.

      You can come to believe a lie you tell yourself long enough and hard enough. He is surrounded by enablers who are also lying to themselves.

      It doesn’t matter what he believes. He does need consequences.

    I wonder if that’s actually true, because I think that he is to some extent literally psychotic. What happens when someone who actually has enormous wealth and power still goes through manic phases or experiences something like grandiose delusions? He might really believe that he’s saving the nation and the world, and that this should be obvious to all.

    It’s like those movies (I can’t remember which ones but I’m sure I’ve seen some) where the king thinks of himself as good and is genuinely surprised and confused when he learns that the common people feel oppressed by him. Except in this case the king does not (and probably can not) learn a heartwarming moral lesson.

    Maybe he doesn’t know because he refuses to listen to anyone who criticizes him, banning them on Twitter and calling them paid actors in public events.

        Honestly histrionic wouldn’t surprise me. He’s got a combination of overinflated sense of self and obsession with what others think. And his childhood sounds like exactly the sort of emotional abuse to give a cluster b disorder and cptsd.

    Run and jump and fish or fight

    Or fuck

    Dude can’t fuck. lol

    His sex organ is mangled after a botched gender affirmation surgery.

    I am not making this up.

    This is a real story the media reported on until it abruptly went quiet on it.

          If there was any real evidence of that being true, it would definitely have been reported on way more widely.

          Real journalism doesn’t report rumors as though they’re true.

                  Yeah, they aren’t going to investigate shit. They spent two decades shrieking about voter fraud, that’s always entirely been a horseshit excuse to make it more difficult for women and minorities to vote.

                  This should be on the news everyday. This is a bigger fucking deal than the “hanging chads” were, but since no one is watching the watchmen the best we’ll ever get is this kind of analysis.

              Again, if there was verifiable evidence, it would have been reported.

                  Posts link to reporting from Newsweek

                  In a blog post, the group noted that its findings are not proof that the last election results were “incorrect or manipulated.”

                  Make up your mind.

        The stones wrote a song about being a functional man who loved a woman.

        Elon is not a functional man.

        Only ivf babies for him.

        Normally I wouldn’t laugh at impotence but Elon isn’t a human. He deserves no empathy.

          Maybe we can focus on the fact that he’s a corrupt Nazi who’s destroying the USA, instead of unfounded rumours about his penis.

            But I believe the broken penis is what drives his revenge cruelty

                I heard from a reliable source he has a terrible penis injury.

                The only way he can prove otherwise would be to show off his that he’s got one and is capable of getting it to full hunter Biden readiness.

                Until then it explains everything :

                His anger

                His joylessness

                His relentless pursuit of neuralink and creating the perfect environment to do unrestricted human testing on disappeared people in El Salvador so he can finally figure out a way to make himself get off.

                All the ivf kids with hot women. <—- this is the biggest tell

                His hate of trans men. A trans man has a more functional penis than he does.

                I could go on. But you get the point.

                I can be convinced he has a non botched penis.

                But I need better evidence than what I have right now.

                Because what I see right now, says botched penis.

                Let’s see it Elon. Show it or how do we know you’re not using the wrong bathroom?

                  This is more believable than trickle down economics and really does explain a lot about him.

                  I’m convinced.
