Is Elon Musk the greatest visionary or the greatest snake oil salesman of our age?

[DotCommunist]

see Bill Gates as the anti-Christ

some of them literally, which is amusing in a way. Same as all the yanks banging on about the devil. Imagine being scared of the Devil when you're over the age of 11. And they were on that one way before the vaccine stuff with Gates.

yes, every empty bit of space and time - scroll, scroll. made me feel intensley uncomfortable, which is why i fucked it off, not so much abotu teh content though. this was years ago. i can get in that habit with reddit too, so only go on that on a desk top and very occasionally.

For me the compulsive aspect of it was uncomfortably close to what cocaine feels like; "just one more line/just a few more scrolls". Except that coke actually gets you high, and also you will actually run out of it eventually. The compulsion to consume algorithmically-driven corporate social media is much easier to feed on a daily basis and is completely legal, which I believe makes it far more insidious than cocaine.

I feel like wider society is not paying enough attention to the dark patterns of psychology embedded into the mechanisms of corporate social media.

Who the fuck does he think he is?

Elon Musk brands Starmer 'two-tier Keir' and asks 'is this Britain or Soviet Union?' over Facebook comment arrest video

The billionaire owner of X posts the hashtag #twotierKeir about the prime minister in reference to "two-tier policing" - a claim often used by the far-right to suggest that police treat certain groups of people in different ways.

Obviously nonsensical comparisons to BLM UK aside, the two tier thing is particularly baffling as this is the first major unrest the police have had to respond since Labour took over after 14 years of Toryism. There's literally only enough data for one tier.

This is quite illuminating

It's an extract from Walter Isaacson's 2023 biography of him. Of course Musk fanbois will see the behavior described there as being confirmation of his "genius".

Has Pickman's model been advising Starmer?

 

[Jeff Robinson]

I know we've already had this... but... worth posting again. This is the guy suing advertisers for not advertising with him? LMFAO.

His head will explode faster than a self-crashing Cybertruck if he finds out about Pickman's model and Operation Pingu

Holy fuck, I’ve just seen that the Tesla Cybertruck exists! You can tell that piece of junk is based on the personal hand drawings of Musk after he watched some shit, unimaginative sci-fi movie/kids cartoon.

Have you only just discovered that the Cybertruck is real? People have been ripping the piss out of that shitbox for months now.

The best take on it is that raccoons are mistaking them for dumpsters. I don't care if it's actually happening or not, like Cameron fucking a pig it's true because it just is.
