    This is a really lame perspective you have. If Musk was a country he’d be the 50th wealthiest country in the world.

    Wanting to see someone with that much power lose as much as of that power as possible is socially responsible imo. Trying to minimize the opinion of people who are pissed at him using his power to signal boost hate speech as “just because they don’t like him” is a really fucking empty headed dumb fuck analysis.

      Okay. Whatever you tell yourself to justify being pointlessly hateful.

        Pointlessly hateful? LMAO.

        My point is about the consolidation of wealth and the ultra rich hoarding that much wealth/power is bad for society.

        I think Musk should have to had to pay so much in taxes he should worth, only, 50 billion dollars. If you call that “hate” you should learn about what hate actually is. Clown.

          I have a feeling you dont know how musk or most of these billionaires have so much money. When he purchased twitter, he sold Tesla stock to get the required funds. He paid $11 billion in taxes on the sold shares. He is just playing the game with the rules he is given. But yeah, you are coming off as a hater.

              Oh my fucking god, I cannot stand it anymore… I think I must’ve become a simp at some point recently because every time I look at elon I just get a massive fucking erection. His face looks like it was hand designed by a thousand angels… And he has an uttermost beautiful style of clothing as well, if he happens to have a twitch account, I hope he would add me at xXPussy_Destroyrr69420wholesomekeanuchungussub2pewdiepieXx. I promise I’ll donate every cent that I make every month, I usually just mow lawns for my elderly neighbor, Mrs. Anderson, but I swear I can do so much more! I’ll probably get a job at Burger King since you get very delicious lunch breaks there!! And I’ll make he is the happiest girl in this green earth, you are so extremely beautiful it pains me to know I can’t be on that bed with you… And people say you can’t be a respectful man these days, well, as a brony, anime lover and gamer 4 life who definitely enjoys his time, I can assure you I’ll be able to show Elon what a REAL man can do. Please baby I love u Elon. I also do Fedora tricks.

            “I have a feeling you dont know how musk or most of these billionaires have so much money. When he purchased twitter, he sold Tesla stock to get the required funds.”

            Musk used money his father made from apartheid era south Africa to go to Canada so he can dodge mandatory military service. Then he started a company that was half of a good idea. He merged companies with another conservative ghoul named Peter Theil to form paypal and sold it. Then he invested in a bunch of green energy start ups to take advantage of Obama era policies to jump start the industry AKA welfare for the rich.

            “He paid $11 billion in taxes on the sold shares. He is just playing the game with the rules he is given. But yeah, you are coming off as a hater.”

            Musk paid a 25% tax rate on on 44 billion dollars… boo fucking hoo. You billionaire apologist dipshits are the most pathetic fucking dumb fucks I can imagine. Wipe Elons cum off your fucking chin and think of something more substantive than “people being haters” goofy bitch ass mother fucker.
