He’s such a whiny bitch.
“Do you think that foreign students might have materially contributed to the creation of your spaceships?”
If this isn’t the kind of stuff you’re asking. You’re doing it wrong.
What’s your question? Keep in mind that he can get up and walk away from the interview at any time.
so you just dont ever ask any pressing questions? I see why your objective media coverage tumbled down a cliff in the recent months
Months? Its always been like this. News media is a loss-maker, you dont get promoted if youre not an effective propagandist for the owners, you don’t get interviews with powerful figures if they dont expect it to benefit them. When the press core was informed, for the first time, that we had invaded Panama, their question weren’t “wtf what do you mean we just invaded a foreign country” or “how many civilians died”, it was “did any americans due”
Better than letting the shitstain get free advertising for his companies by conducting a non-critical interview about spaceships. The era where people thought of him as some kind of Tony Stark really should be over, and any journalists conducting interviews with that premise are just serving his cause.
nothing? do you see a question mark?
Elon getting up mid interview and walking away would be spectacular. That’s more damaging than “I don’t want to answer that”.
The press is very deeply beholden to wealth.
in that case: what happened to your face? Did you fall and hit your head on one of your spaceships?
If a billionaire you know is suffering from mysterious falls, it’s important to let someone know so they can laugh at them too
Or lead him to an open window…
This Exchange happened because MUSK is a BIG STRONG MAN and NOT a Snowflake!
Free speech advocate, or maybe he meant freeze peach?
All he knows about spaceships he learned from “The Dictator” movie.
He should have watched “The Great Dictator”.
The NSFW one or the original?
He did. He thought the Nazis getting hit on the head with frying pans in a Jewish ghetto were being unfairly attacked.
Guys let’s try to keep the discussion about Rampart
You can have any color you want as long as it is black.
I think you meant white…
Stainless steel?
Bootlick harder
He isn’t a government expert either, so why TF is he fucking with our government?
They’re correct. But neither is he a space or engineering expert, so maybe we should just ignore his opinions on those things entirely as well.
They are wrong that none of his “endeavors” deal with immigration.
True, but he’s only an expert in exploiting visa workers.
well lets not get carried away with the “expert” title.
I actually disagree, Elon has been a high profile, staunch supporter of the Republicans and Trump for a while now and was at a high level position with a lot of influence on the government (head of DOGE), and still has significant influence on Republicans, I think it’s only natural to ask someone like that their opinions on government policy.
Even Elon doesn’t want tariffs.
And unlimited immigration… And by unlimited he means unlimited H1B
White settlers from South Africa are refugees though.
You know that you’re in the right when you’re ashamed to share your opinion publicly.
He’s not ashamed, he’s scared of Trump.
You’re not wrong but we’ve already had enough fascists not feeling ashamed to air heinous ideas publicly in the US. Shame isn’t a good, universal metric because some people don’t feel it and will weaponize that.
You’re right, groupthink is definitely the way to go. And everybody loves bring harassed.
Not saying Musk is right here, but… Not great logic.
It doesn’t require group think to understand Nazis are bad for everyone that isn’t a nazi.
FYI, this is the actual transcript, not a meme.
Nazi coward gonna Nazi cower.
“So… about your spaceships. Would you allow foreign kids on them?”
“If they pay me 10 million dollars, sure.”
