Elon Musk

Did Bari get cut out of this Twitter Files drop?

I mean I hope Bari gets cut out from this mortal
coil soon, but

lmao at Bari saying, even while criticizing Musk, that she still doesn't believe Twitter isn't a 'public square', like....literally only the Court of the Fifth Circuit will agree w/ you on that

oh cool look who's back

I'm back!! Thank you @elonmusk and by the way MELT DOWN THE ELECTRONIC VOTING MACHINES AND TURN THEM INTO PRISON BARS!

i'm sure that this mentality is why i will never be a zillionaire to begin with, but it is so strange to me that none of these guys (everyone from musk to trump to kanye to lindell, etc etc) doesn't just cash out and enjoy life? like i would totally just pack in in an sit around plunking around on a guitar by my infinity pool in greece or read books or w/e

like you could are one of the few humans in history that could live a stress free life yet you actively choose all this bullshit

That life's reserved for trust fund babies.

melt down the pillows and turn them into ploughshares

xxpost If they ever stopped moving the void inside of them would swallow them whole.

right? he's gotta have a ghost writer or smth

xps

the irony is that the one rich guy who cashed out and seems to be living the life is Tom from Myspace, whose social media profiles are all just chill vibes and beautiful locales last time I checked.

this guy gets it

car guys vs musk is the real grudge

The god damned door trim

xxxxxp Most of us can play for only so long. But there is so much need in the world, and there are many good causes looking to address that need. Any of these guys could alleviate a whole lot of human suffering, find meaningful and rewarding human engagement, and still have enough wealth to last several lifetimes.

yeah like the Caruso guy who blew $100 million trying to win the LA mayor's race so he could fix homelessness

instead of just using the $100 million to fix homelessness

xp Yeah, fuck that guy.

One of the problems with so many of these guys is that, because they happened to have made a shitload of money (most often from a combination of being in the right place at the right time and recognizing that circumstance), they think they are smarter than everyone else (they're usually not) and good at everything (they're definitely not).

Sorry, meant to post

Xpost sure I get that but honestly Myspace Tom is doing better just by doing nothing than most of these guys actively making it worse. Like they could just go on vacation all the time and be extraordinary tippers and do more good.

But there is so much need in the world, and there are many good causes looking to address that need. Any of these guys could alleviate a whole lot of human suffering, find meaningful and rewarding human engagement, and still have enough wealth to last several lifetimes.

Not a single one of these ghouls should be actively involved in the policy of 'good causes.' Putting them on a beach and blinding them with coke and hookers is the best case scenario aside from just taking their money away by force.

why would u do that to innocent hookers

xp otm

this is good https://www.dissentmagazine.org/article/plutocrats-at-work-how-big-philanthropy-undermines-democracy

(i think the best thing that can be said for EA is it's stupid rather than evil in the way most philanthropy is evil)

nah it's still pretty evil

Establishing your own egotistical charity is awful, but someone giving all their money to like, Doctors Without Borders, with no strings attached is fine.

My nonprofit employer got some big no-strings-attached donations from MacKenzie Scott's foundation and she actually kinda rules

squandering her divorce settlement on worthy NGO's all over the world without micromanaging or telling them how to spend it = classic

Yeah she's done it right. Essentially releasing half of Bezos's money up to that point into the world.

Despite her massive first round of donations (another is to follow), she still came out ahead since Amazon stock went up so much during the pandemic

proving the only good billionaire is the billionaire who doesn't want to be a billionaire

(but she should likely try harder)

Gates Foundation is not bad but they're definitely a more traditional philanthropic foundation, they expect reporting

Looks like everyone who watches Elonjet on Twitch is getting reported and suspended for glorifying violence

What the fuck are you talking about. Where have I ever said anything like this.

The gates foundation is very bad actually

i was gonna say, when the revolution comes we empty the gates foundation's pockets

srsly, the worst example possible

The Gates Foundation gave us the microchips in the vaccine, so there's that. (The m in mRNA stands for Microsoft.)

NBC has responded to Musk banning reporters by… suspending a reporter who was critical of Musk.

xp no we're not joking abt Gates

the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation doesn’t just spend its own money. As much as 40 percent of a foundation’s assets represent funds that otherwise would have been collected by governments as income and estate taxes.

https://nonprofitquarterly.org/is-the-gates-foundation-out-of-control/

also helping to eradicate polio but whatever

If we took his money we could use it to eradicate polio without his pet project of union busting teachers coming along for the ride.

Keep caping for Epstein’s bro, though.

i don't think "we" could do that, actually
