I did not see this published outside of India. But not sure why. It’s all based on Xitter.

    Thats why power and management of a country should be spread thin, to avoid that corruption from a single point to affect the life of many

      Nailed it! Just like in nature and agriculture, monocultures are vulnerable. One disease can wipe out an entire population. Same principal can be applied to almost anything.

    Imagine having more money than anyone’s ever had

    Being stressed, depressed, drug addicted, and an actual Nazi.

    Times like this I think about Enya. Yeah, Enya. Where’s she been? In a fucking castle. With a fuck ton of kitties.

    She made her millions and said “oh golly, I don’t need to do much of anything anymore. And I quite like castles and kittens.”

    She didn’t say “what can I do to make more people like me?” And then please the most hateful people on earth. How are these paths even a choice one has to ponder? Go fuck off in a castle full of cats.

      We were just having a similar discussion, though not about Enya. My position was if I had a billion dollars, you know what I would do? I’d recreate Hogwarts Castle. I’m not even a huge Harry Potter fan and hate what’s-her-name, but how cool would it be to live in a beautiful movie set house the size of a small town?

      It’s kinda crazy to me because let’s say you do want to be the most beloved person on earth AND you have more money than anyone ever, you could do that?

      Like at one point musk said if there was a plan to end world hunger in 6 billion dollars he would do it, and of course he didn’t… But if he did, a small fraction of his infinite wealth would be gone, but people would have loved him.

      If, Tesla actually produced a fully self-driving electric car that was better and cheaper than anything else, he’d have even more fans than he currently does.

      If, he actually created high speed mass transit, instead of whatever the fucking “hyperloop” thing he made is.

      He could have done probably all of this for the price of twitter, but nah instead he had to go be a nazi.

      Doing like even half this list would make him beloved by the average person who isn’t too interested in him. They’d see all the good he does and say “That’s what a billionaire should be.” and not do any digging. It’s honestly batshit insane to me that someone can say “everyone hates me and it makes me sad but I’m not going to do anything about this because clearly they are the ones that are wrong.”

      Like how do you fuck it up so bad. The first time I heard of the guy I bought into that “elon musk is ironman” persona thing, and now he’s just a crazed nazi I want nothing to do with.

    Headline chops off the important bit:

    As a Musk biographer, I told you all he was going mad—the cause being a combination of depression, stress, med misuse and illicit use of illegal drugs.

    But here’s an article from two months ago about it

    https://www.msn.com/en-in/health/mindandbody/is-elon-musk-struggling-with-his-mental-health/ar-BB1rgzL7

    Your article is about a post the guy made complaining that people didn’t listen two months ago, even tho it was covered in the news…

    You’re who he’s complaining about if you just now heard it.

        I’m just completely over people not paying attention and acting like that’s a valid excuse

        The time to start paying attention was long ago, but at least start now. And lots of people still aren’t paying attention

          Ignoring things like this is how some people cope.

          But I fear in the future these people just ignoring are going to be in the exact same boat as those “just following orders”

    It’s not the most important reason by a long shot, but it’s yet another reason why extreme wealth hoarding, aka billionaires and centimillionaires, should have been taxed out of existence and legislated from existing going forward:

    Even they aren’t happy, even sitting in the complete victory of their coup. They could have a dozen space station mansions each and they still wouldn’t be satiated or satisfied. They can’t be satisfied. That is their defining character deficit. Literally everybody loses so long as the avarice diseased capitalists remain in charge.

    They’re mentally ill with an obsession related disorder that they’ve manipulated civilization into enabling.

    They should be in mental health facilities receiving inpatient treatment for both their and everyone else’s wellbeing, too bad at least in the US they defunded mental Healthcare to cut their own taxes through their captured government.

    The inmates are truly running the asylum our society.

    Why can’t he just kill himself? Why does he need to bring the entire country down with him? Piece of shit.

    He’s doing it too himself, fuck off.

    No one asked him to be a co-nazi. No one asked him to take over Twitter. No one asked him to play make-believe auto maker. No one is asking for his fucking biography. He’s acting like everyone is pulling him in all these different directions, and no one wants him.

    He is the world’s richest fucking man. Fuck him. He could have the best doctors/therapy/drugs in the world, could travel the world and “find himself,” maybe even do something worth writing about. But he chooses to be a completely waste of human flesh that will be nothing but a smear in history. That’s his legacy. A shit smear on an already shit covered era. He’s not helping anyone, not even his own kids, he is willfully putting his effort into being the biggest piece of shit.

    Fuck him. Fuck his depression, fuck his addiction, fuck his stress, and fuck him. He’s ruining my country and wants pity because it’s stressing him out.

    FUCK HIM

      Also calling it stress is so fucking gross when normal people have to deal with soul crushing extisence of inadequate food, housing and life of wage slavery, and he’s just upset cause his world domination plans makes people say mean things to him.

    Elon Musk could have been remembered as a cool tech guy. All he had to do was just keep running his companies and let the smart people working for him do the talking. Nobody would be the wiser that he didn’t know what he was talking about.

    Instead, he let his ego get in the way of things and people know him for who he really is. I used to think he was pretty smart. After reading the things he writes, it became apparent that his companies thrive despite him, not because of him.

      He had a pr team helping him, it did wonders for his public image, he became even more narcissistic and got rid of them. also he kinda changed around the time the epstein thing came out too, suspicious?
