    It’s an act.

    Elon spent the entire Superbowl hanging out in Rupert’s suite. These assholes planned all this shit.

      I don’t disagree that this was planned, but I am not so sure Elon was ever really completely in on it the whole time, even if he thought he was.

      He’s a narcissist, so it seems unlikely he’d be ok with his mental health being questioned and looking like such a failure in the public spotlight.

      And he’s done with Elon. Elon got used like the tool he is by Thiel, Murdoch and Trump. Musk scapegoat can now be sacrificed however they see fit

        Yeah, they all use each other. They only see other people as something to consume and Elon was the one who everyone else pinned the blame on. Of the US suffers a systemic failure the blame is immediately directed at Elon or Trump. Both are fall guys for the billionaires using them.

          There’s a 3rd party view of Trump and Epstein’s relationship that’s very much this. Two psychos using each other

      Don’t disagree with you but I’m not sure what the goal here is if they’re both in on it

    Why does Murdoch give a shit? They’re doing all the shit he wants anyway, is he mad they started misinterpreting his Aussie accent for a South African one?

      Rupert stepped down in 2023, the next generation is so liberal that Rupert is trying to changed his trust/will to give it all to the one furtherest of n the right. Lachlan who is currently running shit.

      Lachlan still doesn’t like trump though:

      Although it has been assumed that Lachlan is more conservative than his siblings, it was reported that he did not support Trump’s presidency, and kept toilet paper printed with his face in his house during the 2016 campaign. However, he has backed his father’s moves in business, including defending Tucker Carlson when he was on the rise.[4]

    And yet again, he suddenly cares about truth and ethics now, because something directly and negatively affects him…

    How do you deal with people like that? Is there a way to make them understand that empathy is not actually a weakness and helping others is important and good, even if it doesn’t benefit you personally at that very moment?

        In order to play Mario Kart you have to know where the track is located… or more specifically where the other cars are.
