>it's surprising just how effective they've been at turning many people against him.

He's done plenty of it himself, retweeting nazi shit and great replacement shit and all types of horrible shit he supports on twitter. It takes a real boot licker to not recognize his overt evil he believes politically, and believe it's some media conspiracy. The fact he takes government money isn't a question, whether giving elon that money is a net benefit or detriment is a different question entirely. The boot is so far down your throat you're being as myopic as those you accuse of being myopic.

I'll explain this real slow. The problem with people like elon isn't that they get tax payer money, it's that they act afterwords like they bootstrapped themselves alone in to success and then dodge billions in taxes. Simple enough for you elon simp??

Precisely. Elon has stood up and acted like multiple ventures of his either haven't received tax payer funding, or grants, or loans, or subsidies. He and his companies are perfectly entitled to do so. And we are perfectly entitled to call out bullshit when he goes on an interview/Twitter to talk about "without government assistance".

> He's done plenty of it himself, retweeting nazi shit and great replacement shit and all types of horrible shit he supports on twitter.

What "nazi shit" has he posted? When has he posted anything about a global conspiracy to replace white people? What "horrible shit" does he support on twitter? Do you have a handy example of this "overt evil"?

> It takes a real boot licker to... believe it's some media conspiracy.

There is no conspiracy required to generate hatred of someone who has become inconvenient--just a large number of journalists acting on their own desire to take him down a notch. How else do you explain the prevalence of hysterical knuckleheads accusing Elon of insane nonsense (like being "overt[ly] evil)?

Here's some of the white supremacist great replacement stuff for you just to start, found in maybe 30sec of scrollin the sub https://www.reddit.com/r/EnoughMuskSpam/s/Xe4nIKVHgq

I don't care enough to dig deeper but you have to be blind or not on twitter to see the ripple of his dog shit ideology.

No one sensible gives a fuck about anything but the dodged taxes and pro terrorist shit from jan six to libs of tik tok. He deserves to be hated.

How you make the leap from "they absolutely want to exterminate your kind" (the 'kind' being those who are pro-Confederacy) to 'this is white people being replaced' is amazing.

Nothing in Elons' response implies that he sympathizes with the Confederate-loving moron he's replying to. He's merely making the point that 'they' (whoever 'they' are) want to see an end to the kind of people who worship slave owners.

This doublethink is astonishing. Please, seriously reconsider your own prejudice when making such preposterous leaps.

Just cause you're playing glib and acting like you don't understand the rhetoric in that thread doesn't change reality. It's literally verbatim great replacement shit. "They want to exterminate you." The venn diagram between confederates and white supremacists is a circle with a smaller circle in it. Keep playin glib tho I'm sure elon will pay you any time now for all the hard work you do.

There is a big gap between fantasy and reality, and you seem to be stuck in the abyss. "Understand the rhetoric" works in an infinite number of ways - your complete and immutable faith in your own glib hate-train is just one of them.

Well, gee I don't know, let's start with this, literally just off the top of my head from the past day or two. https://x.com/esqueer_/status/1721235855241547877 but you can look through his likes/follows/rts to see plenty of fucked up stuff.

Following someone on Twitter doesn't mean you support them. It means you want to pay attention to what they say in the future.

If I only followed the people I trust, and ignored the people I dis-trust, I'd never know what the people I dis-trust are up to, and be able to respond in kind.

However, you've made your conclusion, its clear that your prejudice and hatred are all you need.

Yeah cool, except I'm talkin about someone who is asking questions about pedophilia, to give the most generous interpretation of that person, not someone who has some minor debates on budget allocation.

No one said you have to only follow people you like. But following that guy probably says somethin about your character. What? You clearly think nothing so keep sucking him off, good for you lol. I am just not as blind as you.

>But following that guy probably says somethin about your character.

Yeah, it means you want to keep an eye on someone who you may not think is necessarily a positive influence in the world. So?

> I am just not as blind as you.

I wouldn't be so sure about that. Hate blinds harder than honesty.

You are laughably, childishly naive if you think he's following that guy ironically just to "watch out" for his problematic beliefs. It's so comical I have to laugh. "Guys, i follow all these nazis and terrorists to KEEP AN EYE OUT, not because i sympathize with their beliefs!! That would be silly!" Do you hear yourself?? How many stochastic terrorists, white supremacists and pedos do you follow??? lol. "Guys, i followed epstein to his island to keep an eye on him!!" Lmao what an absolute farce. >I wouldn't be so sure about that. Hate blinds harder than honesty.

I hate things he does, not him. I don't know him. I like other things. But on the whole I think it's pretty evident simply by his twitter what a piece of shit he is. That's not even touching the wealth hoarding or business practices. Simply his politics. I pay for star link, I have commended plenty he's done literally in public on a radio show I run. You're the worshipper who believes one can't point out all flaws in the man without being a "blind hater"

On the other hand, you are stuck on a hate-train which blinds you to the simplicity of the details right in front of you. Literally nothing that you claim is supported in any way, whatsoever, by actual evidence. All you have is conjecture and blather, boosted by an arrogant belief in your own coffeeshop psychology skills - which are very, very faulty.

You've merely brought your hate-train to a station you don't intend to leave.

> Well, gee I don't know, let's start with this, literally just off the top of my head from the past day or two.

Following an edgelord makes you a nazi?

Where did I say that? I only noted that example would be one of the things he does that inspire dislike independent of some media conspiracy.

If you think following a guy who tweets shit like that says nothin about you good for you, keep sucking elon off, have fun. But not all of us are so blinded by worship.

We get from ‘Elon is evil’ to ‘there are tweets that inspire dislike’ so fast. Thanks for playing, comrade.

> If you think following a guy who tweets shit like that says nothin about you good for you.

I go outside, so I’m perfectly aware that it means nothing at all.

>keep sucking elon off, have fun. But not all of us are so blinded by worship.

It’s past your bedtime. Go back to reddit already.

I think he's evil. That's an opinion. Did you expect a mathematical proof of his character? Did you want me to produce a documentary documenting everything he's done? Are you stupid? Can you read?

In my original comment I asserted he does plenty to inspire dislike without some media conspiracy to foment that disdain. And that I think he's evil/a white supremacist/nazi sympathizer based on his politics. Those are two separate statements you pea brained musk cultist.

Here's a third link, to him congratulating a literal stochastic terrorist. https://x.com/stevemullis/status/1721656699856306290

Don't be a boot lick. Elon is evil.

> a literal stochastic terrorist.

Tweeting is terrorism? Congratulating someone (tongue-in-cheek) for being featured in a hysterical front-page hit piece is evil? You people crack me up.

What she does is stochastic terrorism. Maybe you should look it up. Here's a definition for you: Stochastic terrorism refers to political or media figures publicly demonizing a person or group in such a way that it inspires supporters of the figures to commit a violent act against the target of the speech

Which is exactly what evil cunts like libs of tik tok does. Demonizing lgbt people and inspiring violence and bomb threats.

You crack me up you boot licking piece of shit, elon isn't going to pay you for simping for him you know?
