This is giving The Office "I want to have 100 kids so I can have 100 friends and no one can say no to being my friend." energy

It’s really not funny TBH, it’s all tied to his views on eugenics (or whatever euphemism is used) and frankly horrific visions of the future he shares with a few lower profile billionaires.

As if his sorry assed genetic material should be passed on. Why do all nazis assume they're the "superior race"?

[–] Witchfire@lemmy.world 27 points 6 days ago

Because being white is the biggest accomplishment of their life

That's not a compliment

[–] KingPorkChop@lemmy.ca 11 points 6 days ago (2 children)

If you have to beg and bully people into fucking you, you're not part of anything superior.

Hi, I’m Leon! But you can call me the neo-nazi kid :D

I’m a proud white guy from South Africa (14 y/o in spirit).

I’m currently trying to fuck up the world and spread my genes hoping to be the new Hitler some day!

Do you want to have my kid? Haha just kidding. Unless…

Declining population, my ass. There were less than 4.5 billion people on the planet when I was born. That fash-hole is only worried that white people will represent a minority of the future population. Nothing more.

[–] Phoenicianpirate@lemm.ee 13 points 6 days ago (1 children)

If they Thanos snapped all non-white people on the planet, I guarantee you, the French, European Spanish, Irish, and others will suddenly be non-white and be enslaved to do former jobs. They will insist they dress differently and even tattoo them from infancy to insist they are very genetically different from 'proper' whites and thus are only fit for slavery.

[–] dual_sport_dork@lemmy.world 8 points 5 days ago (1 children)

No points for guessing. The Irish and the Spanish have already been considered "not white" at points in recent history. So have the Italians.

It must be said again.

There are no good billionaires. Every one of them is doing stupid shit like this while people starve to death, in public or in secret.

Ah yes make money exploiting people, use it to exploit people, so glad we're too enlightened to tax these people or bind them to our laws.

Would be awesome to see all of his businesses fail to the point he can't cover his child support.

This… might just be the craziest thing I’ve read since the election

Someone should totally try to catfish him, though. Sounds like it wouldn’t be all that challenging

[–] TacticalCheddar@lemm.ee 31 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (5 children)

This… might just be the craziest thing I’ve read since the election

We so far have:

  1. Trump turning the White House in a Tesla dealership
  2. Trump putting tarrifs on penguins, but not on Russia
  3. US warplans leaked because someone doesn't know how to use his phone
  4. The US becoming a crypto bro.
  5. The US looking to invade Canada, Mexico, Panama, and Greenland while also looking to extort the rest of the fucking planet.
  6. The US stealing the Gulf of Mexico from Mexico.

Just to name a few. We are only 4 months into his term people. I'd say Elon humping everything that moves is just a regular tuesday.

I put it on archive.md for anybody that couldn't see past the paywall like myself. (Sorry for the hijack but I wanted to see it quickly.) I'm not sure how everyone else is managing to read it for free tho.

I find it weird that he can be like that and still be alive. Does he bring security to absolutely everywhere he is?

[–] WoodScientist@sh.itjust.works 12 points 6 days ago (1 children)

It's easy to forget just how much money a billion dollars is, let alone hundreds of billions.

You could hire three hundred people at a very generous salary of $250k/year. 8 hour shifts, that gives you 100 people guarding you 24/7. That would $75 million/year. You could do that off the investment income from a single billion dollars. Pay them the salary more typical of a security guard, like $50k/year, and Musk could be surrounding 24/7 by one hundred thousand security guards, and it would cost him $15 billion/year. He has enough wealth to afford that if he really wanted to. The man could take a cue from ancient Rome and commission his own army if he wanted to.

We need to eliminate billionaires. No one should have this type of power.

this has to be satire, there’s no way

[–] NutWrench@lemmy.ml 11 points 5 days ago

Musk is another one of these rich, eugenics idiots with a breeding fetish. It's even creepier because his dick doesn't work anymore thanks to botched penis surgery. All his kids were conceived through artificial insemination.

[–] MDCCCLV@lemmy.ca 16 points 5 days ago (2 children)

We've already had reports of him propositioning employees for sex for money. You don't think he considers everyone on Twitter his property?

It is absolutely not satire. It's a drooling nethandreal with no higher order thought than "sex sex mine mine!"

If ever a man needed to be stripped of his power and influence

[–] NostraDavid@programming.dev 17 points 6 days ago (2 children)

When she didn’t sign the NDA, the payments were reportedly slashed, and eventually cut again to $20,000 a month.

Oh no! Only 20,000 dollahs!? That poor woman must now be living on water and bread for the rest of her life!

Listen, I get it - Musk is using his money to manipulate people and he's an asshole for that, but the cry story is just bleh.

[–] misteloct@lemmy.world 19 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (11 children)

He promised $15m and $100k / month. Would you honestly sleep with Musk and carry the weirdo's kid for any less? I'd need $20k/mo just to have dinner with the guy once.

Jesus fucking Christ, your mentality right now is that hush money is okay. You're saying that because she's getting a lot of money she shouldn't complain.

I am not surprised. Elon is an accelerationist who believes that the next social turmoil will definitely be coming. But since it is going to happen, he thinks it is better if it comes sooner rather than later.

Nasty ass loser. trifling ass hentai addict type thought process. I've known life-long basement dewllers, they could NEVER be caught acting like this. They're mostly just awkward and sweet with mild social impairment. Then again none of them are billionaires LMAO. It must be the entitlement of people like this.

You know that image of the greasy neckbeard guy with the ugly hat who lives in his mother's basement? The one that floats around in everyone's head at the idea of a 30+ year old man living alone with his mother. That guy will be getting mad pussy. That guy will find genuine companionship with a human. All because they don't see others as receptacles for procreation.

All of the images, and memes, and greentext horror stories; all of the stereotypical caricatures of creeps. None of that could have prepared me for this. None of them fit the boot. I have never had the hairs on my neck stand up like I just did reading about that.

This guy is the King Kong of creeps. The final boss.
