Forget left-vs-right. Musk is an idiot, a hypocrite, and
on top of that a billionaire.
He's a hypocrite. He wanted to make Twitter free from censorship but then banned people who disparaged him, banned the use of "cis" or "cisgender" (which aren't political statements or attacks, they're accurate categories), and banned ex-employees who answered his public questions. But then allowed hate speech (despite it violating the Twitter terms of service) and bigotry which leads to violence. Forget what side of the political spectrum you're on, he claims to want freedom but enforces it when it supports him and hate and eliminates that same freedom from people who disagree with him or who want to stop violence and hate. That's hypocrisy.
He's an idiot. He wanted to look smart and powerful so he tweeted a bunch of bullshit and got called on it, getting forced to buy Twitter. He claimed everyone who he fired went to build the new Threads app, but Meta has the paper trail proving that's a lie. He's a big whiny baby who throws tantrums when he gets called out for being wrong and can't accept it.
And billionaires in general are messed up if you think about it. Get 1000 people in a room with 1 billionaire and the rest completely broke with zero money each. On average, everyone in that room is a
millionaire. They say one million seconds is 12 minutes but a billion seconds is 30 years. You can't get that much money from working. You get it from siphoning money away from your employees. With a net worth of over $200 billion, If he gave $2million to each Tesla employee he'd still have
billions of dollars left. As a rich guy, he gets tax breaks for a ton of stuff so they tend to pay lower tax rates then the rest of us. But if that money was instead paid as higher wages to his employees, they'd pay more into taxes (leading to better schools, hospitals, public services), plus everyday people are more likely to spend money in the economy on stuff like food and fun (boosting the economy) compared to rich people who put their money into savings and investments and property (where it stops circulating, slowing the economy).
He's an idiot who got rich so everyone thinks he's a genius.
Meanwhile he's smoking joints on the Rogan podcast while his employees get fired for failing employee drug tests. Make it make sense.
There are a lot of billionaires out there...I don't see why he's bad? because he fired some employees he deem detrimental to his business? that shit happens everywhere...I'm pretty sure they got some nice severance packages...and probably just happy not to work for a "dick ass employer" like him....or you think h e's bad because twitter no longer just a leftist mouthpiece because of Elon?
