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

It's just the utter bad faith. Elon Musk doesn't care about vulnerable young women - if he actually met any of the survivors of this abuse he'd probably think they were whores and scum. I don't know if he's ever publically said it, but everything about Musk screams that he's the kind of man who believes women habitually make up sexually assault allegations to 'ruin men's lives'... like Robinson and his ilk, funnily enough.

Elon doesn't care about anyone who is not Elon ...
jebus hopefully.the ketamine catch up with him soon enough
 
Is it not daily xtwitterx users -> British public in general -> non-daily xtwitterx users? (Or the other way around, depending on how you look at it.) It's tricky data that you can't really draw a clear pattern from, but I think non-daily xtwitterx users are more frequent users than people who aren't users.
The full survey results are at the link here.

 
Larry didn’t refer to favorability; he specifically mentioned the likelihood of disliking Musk. You seem to want to twist the poor cat’s words.
Yes. What he says is strictly true. From those latest figures, twitter users are more likely to dislike Musk than non twitter users. They're also more likely to like him.

The high number of daily twitterers who like him is likely a reflection of the decline in twitter since he took over. To get a full picture of that, you'd need to look at the overall twitter numbers. Looking it up, it fell by about a third last year in the UK. So the likely explanation for the rise in his favourability number among regular users is that a big chunk of people have left because they dislike him.

So there are a lot of rumours going around that Elon has set up another alias called "Adrian Dittman". They've been posting on one of the chan boards (remarkably "Elon is a father who gets lots of sex"). Anyway, there's a lot of stuff about it out there on the Internets.

So, Adrian has done a two hour stream of Fortnite with a guy. You can see it here. Obviously nobody is going to sit down for two hours to listen to somebody who may or may not be Elon Musk get roasted by Zoomers but it's here if you want to dip in and out. (It does kind of sound like him to my untrained ear).


Holy christ. Just catching up with all this, and I have to say, I was not expecting ConnorEatsPants to be someone who manages to best hold Musk to account and put him in his place :eek: Although, he's seriously helped by the fact 'Adrian' seems to be such a willing participant :D

The fact Musk would be willing to do this at all would be mad enough, but the fact he's trying to do it under the guise of an alias, and without even attempting to disguise his voice in any way, is just...

Once again, it's both hilarious and horrifying. This is the guy millions of people, including some of the most powerful in the world, listen to and, in some way or another, respect :confused:
 
That country is in for a hell of a ride. It’s basically been taken over by two literal lunatics.

One with a severe case of Narcissistic Personality Disorder, one probably getting smashed on ket who thinks 2016 4chan is the height of cool and spends his free time playing video games with Nazis.

It’s going to be tough time for the world I think.

Well, we got through four years of one of them..
 
The most positive outcome is for unanimous hatred of both, from all sides. Enough so they barely raise their heads above the pulpit again.

Unlikely but being lunatics, it’s possible.

I know, and it does my nut that so many people can't or won't understand this. If it was his rich white buddies raping them, he'd call them a bunch of silly bitches and whores. Same with Kellie-Jay Keen. Just as the Holocaust wasn't bad because it was a genocide, it was bad because Hitler targeted Jews instead of Muslims, so the rape and abuse of teenage girls is bad because the wrong people did it, not because the act itself is downright evil. I'm not saying Asian rapists should be given a pass, I'm saying it makes me angry that the right only EVER give a shit about women and girls when they're being raped by Asian men.

You might be right, and I'm not sure I'm disagreeing. The thing is, I expect the wheels of capitalism to keep spinning. There'll be financial killings to be made from the slashing of regulations, environmental disregard and lobbyists lobbying hard. To see it as some kind of one man band and his sidekick; in some respects it might be like that, I just can't see it holding together.

To see Trump as some kind of invulnerable full dictator is probably a long way off. I think both of them are deluded but then there's little political bottom to either of them. Nearly half the electorate didn't vote for Trump either. As I've said before there will be horrors, towards migrants, legitimisation of post truth and 'very fine people on both sides' white supremicist encouragements. But he's essentially a salesman and a populist who relies on spiel. That can get found out rather quickly and regularly. If his popularity drops it will slow him down.

I hope this wave will meet reality and burn itself out in failure. It wouldn't take much, going by the appointments Trump has made, for his admin. to become a running joke; that's hard to supress. A 'hell of a ride' as you say though as snafu dictates.

The elephant in the room is likely climate change. Four years to start soon and we are already in the foothills. Disasters, economic stresses and populists who can't handle it?

Is that a reference to the meme with the woman who is upset and the cat is bemused?

The story behind it is quite disturbing.

Really? Sure I saw something quite wholesome with the women talking about the meme and stuff.

Did I dream that?

Might have done tbf - don’t really remember details…

I don't share your optimism. I mean, the last time they voted him in he was telling people during the pandemic to inject bleach and all sorts of nonsense. And yet that failed to prevent his re-election.
 
He may well not be, but that link's not working for me.
Heres a blog post from one of the people who did the actual research. Better than the fucking spectator.


I'm not sure whether it really matters. Total cringe either way.

Think you need to catch up a bit more... it seems pretty conclusive they're two different people.
