What the actual fuck does this loser clown think he’s resisting?!
He’s declared war on “the woke mind virus” because his daughter is trans.
Anything to not support my kids.
The way she dragged him was a thing of beauty and it showed how much he’s pandering to the right.
He declared this during a conversation. This was a discussion between the richest man in the world and the (allegedly) most popular intellectual alive. “Woke mind virus”.
We are not okay.
I feel you’re crediting him with wayy too much investment in his children here
He doesn’t give a single shit about his children as people. He does very much care that his captive collection of shared genes look and act heteronormatively in public
which is ironic because his ragingly transphobic dummy spit is the only reason I know anything about a single one of his children and it’s her.
The impression i’m getting is despite the genetic handicap she’s a wonderfully reasonable person.
Dude basically just declared war on his daughter for no other reason than ignorant vitrol. This is the opioid of the dumbest people on the planet.
Because democrats want a wealth tax, higher top tier tax, and higher corporate tax. All for the benefit of people that aren’t billionaires.
Just like all those fictional resistance movements he listed! /s
The woke deep state liberal communist elites, obviously. That totally totally exist.
Elon is resisting the rebels who want to overthrow his Empire.
I hope he’ll be resisting arrest.
I am tired of Elon’s lies. I did NOT watch Divergent!
You missed out on a lot of good podcasts taking the piss out of it.
I went to see it with my brother and we laughed through it, it’s not good but a bunch of people randomly doing parkour off a train is a good unintentional joke.
You missed out on a lot of good podcasts taking the piss out of it.
Drop some names, let the rest of us in on the fun
Which podcasts? I would like to listen
It’s mind blowing that he saw this meme and thought it represented him
These billionaires try to convince us they work hard for their riches but somehow they have time to find and post memes on social media. Doesn’t he have several companies to run into the ground? Trump would tweet literally 200 times a day about shit he saw on television and social media when he was supposed to be working hard as president
If I made a million a month, then even without taxes, cost of living or any luxuries, I’d have to work 83 years and change to become a billionaire.
There is no way anyone can work hard enough to justify accruing even one billion in a lifetime, let alone several.
If you made a dollar a day from the time the dinosaurs were killed by the asteroid till today you’d still only have 10% of what he has.
He is in the “First Order” kind of resistance, not the “Rebel Alliance” kind.
When you think you got a grip on the utter stupidity and ignorance… Too dumb to shut the fuck up
Right? In Star Wars he would be Jabba The Hutt and you know what happened to him when the resistance came…
Does… Does he think his side is the resistance?
There was a comment with that picture, about adding bodies to pile… do you have it?
Curse you for making me aware of this. Apparently he wrote it in response to yet another cringe picture of him posing with a Samurai sword.
You are the MVP, thank you very much!
Yeah, i remember that. Something about graveyards being full of his adversaries, or some such tripe. Very edge. Wow.
I read it as he wants everyone to take him down.
So, I’m obligated to be that guy.
A big part of the Hunger Games plot was Katniss wooing rich donors into backing her underdog campaigns, first as a contestant and then as a true revolutionary.
Mon Mothma was a mega-wealthy Corriscant socialite who built an underground financial network capable of financing the rebellion.
And those are just the fictional reflections of real historical revolutionary struggles. Class Traitors are a pivotal part of any anti-capitalist narrative and for good reason. A rebellion marches on its stomach.
Musk is still a coked-up ego-maniacal dipshit. But the idea that you just need a bumper crop of angry poor people to revolutionize a society has an extensive list of empirical refutations.
Musk is not that guy, but yeah, all resistance stories have rich people on the other side secretly financing them and providing access to things.
I don’t think Haiti had any secret anti-slavery plantation owners, but otherwise sure.
If you didn’t know anything about Haiti that might be a safe bet but I’m sure more than one plantation owned by gens de color was open to seeing all people free.
Lol. There’s a difference between joining the winning side so they don’t hang you and financing the rebellion.
So you’re saying none of the freed people lent monetary support to the revolution?
I’m saying you’re an idiot trying to pretend plantation owners funded a slave rebellion out of the goodness of their hearts.
For some reason.
Having trouble following the conversation?
The correct comment (which you disagreed with) was “all resistance stories have rich people on the other side secretly financing them and providing access to things.”
Which you disagreed with for some reason.
Not really related but I kinda thought the nickname Jennifer Lawrence had was kinda hilarious. She said something like she’d be too tired to shower and clean up sometimes during the filming that they eventually joked around calling her Katpiss Neverclean.
I can’t remember if she was upset about that or not it was so long ago. I hope it wasn’t too mean spirited.
I’m 14 and this is deep
You watched Star Wars and sided with the resistance
Sided with the group against the politician who manufactured threats to rile up their base enough to vote him limitless power in government that he used to make himself forever emperor and turning the democratic Republic into a xenophobic, fascist authoritarian society which draws loose parallels with nazism? So much to the point that when declaring himself the emperor, Padme outright says “So this is how democracy ends…”
You’re goddamn right I sided with the resistance in that regard
are american leaders unironically using the fucking galactic empire as a reference
It’s hilarious that Republicans/Conservatives see themselves as the resistance. Like when did helping people and trying to provide better lives for the needy and taxing the rich and corporations become “radical”? I’m thinking they don’t actually know what a lot of these words mean. We already know they have no understanding what “woke” means, unless they do and they just don’t care, which could also be true.
They will unironically claim George Carlin as their own 😂 When do we start weighting votes on IQ?
I’ve argued with people that claimed Carlin was “antivax.” Their reasoning? He joked about licking doorknobs, so his immune system is up to snuff. That translated to antivax in their pointy ol’ heads.
Someone should put this text over that goth picture of him he hates so much.
This one?
One of the richest men in the world calling the Trump campaign a resistance is kind of ironic.
Au contraire, mon frere, in most of these movies the VILLAN was the one with power and unlimited resources. Just. Like. Elon.
And Elon - you have cited movies designed to manipulate the audience into siding with the rebels, not the oligarchs. Y’all want a better metaphor from pop culture? Try The Sopranos, Dexter, or the SAMCRO bunch - they’re truly amoral shitbags designed to appeal to the downtrodden masses. So go murder Big Pussy, wrap his corpse in a carpet, and dump him in the bay. That’s how you get people to cheer for you.
With apologies to all the Big Pussies out there who are about to get whacked by Elon’s populist quest. (Cause he reads this thread.)
One of the most delusional people of our time.
Man-child is the richest man in the world and still has to conjure up conspiracies and shadowy cabals to excuse why he doesn’t have even more.
This is how rich people see themselves tho, and it’s important to pay attention to that. They all think their a small cadre of radical hold outs fighting an evil government trying to exercise over regulation. They think they’re the rebels from star wars.
