Musk should have the most expensive handcuffs slapped on him
Cool, many Americans are struggling to pay their bills and are close to being on the street…
At this point if you are still using a Tesla you are supporting racism and sexism
To recover the gold, we must slay the dragon.

fuck this guy
I don’t like him. He is a cunt.
But he is extraordinarily smart. No doubt about it.
He called himself the Chief Engineer at Space X. In fact, he doesn’t know shit about engineering. He has no engineering degree. He just hires young engineers, make them work like dogs, and constantly takes credit for anything they achieve. Once they burnout, he kicks them out and replaces them.
He uses his celebrity to attract more young engineers. He actually has an entire team that visits engineering schools and tells young graduates “You have the ability to work for a genius and go to Mars. Wanna join Elon ?”. Again, he knows nothing about engineering. He has a financial degree from the Wharton School of Finance.
Elon Musk presents himself as the founder of Tesla. Tesla was actually created by Marc Tarpenning and Martin Eberhard. He simply invested in their company, fired them both, and sued them both. Then, he called himself the original founder of the company.
In exchange of a confidential legal settlement ($$$), Marc Tarpenning and Martin Eberhard must agree to stay silent. A lie repeated 50 times, 100 times, 1000 times, becomes reality. So, many outlets now call Musk the founder of Tesla. Perception shapes reality.
One of the reason he bought X is to shape the algorithm. He has urged millions of dumb people to buy Tesla stocks. And it’s working. Dumb people regularly see random accounts on their X feed praising Elon Musk as a genius. And these dumb people actually believe it.
The same way, dumb americans on X constantly saw random accounts attacking Kamala Harris during the 2024 election campaign. At no point did they find it actually suspicious (“Why am I seeing this content ?”). And it played a key role in the election of Donald Trump.
Before the election, Musk was asked how much money DOGE might save. “We can do at least two trillion” he said. At the end of the day, he didn’t save shit. But he successfully fired every regulator that was investigating SpaceX or Tesla. That was his real goal.
Reuters and the New York Times published two very good investigations about how Musk knowingly sold defective cars:

You will never guess how Elon reacted 🙃
He started telling people on X :
Translation: “Please don’t read quality journalism. That would be super bad for me.”
This man is the proof that technical knowledge doesn’t matter in business. If you are absolutely shameless and skilled at manipulating fools, you can be highly successful.
Elon Musk is not smart, it’s just that his investors are exceedingly stupid.
Quality post
That shit means nothing. A happy community is worth may more. It has value.
Half a trillion in equity is so unfathomable in my reality.
$500,000,000,000
Let’s say I ask him for 0.001% of his wealth… I would get $5,000,000.
Now let’s put this into perspective of my reality. If I had $1000 and someone asked me for the same 0.001% of my wealth, I would be handing over $0.01.
One cent.
I understand that this wouldn’t be sustainable if I give everyone one cent from my pot of a thousand… but still. Have a trillion dollars makes me sick.
More perspectives:
If you divided this amount equally across every human on earth (8,142,000,000), they’d each get about $61.
Only 9 sovereign wealth funds hold more value. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sovereign_wealth_fund
It’s also different having equity worth that mush vs liquid assets
Maybe he could also become worlds first halved half-trillionaire?
Or perhaps quartered?
The important thing is that they are equally sized.
I’m pretty sure he’s aware how “wealth” is calculated and plans his “wealth” accumulation so it looks higher in those stats.
And as the sub-headline says: as soon as Tesla stock fails (wtf did it rise?) he is not ultra rich anymore, I daresay he might be in serious trouble.
