I don't want him dead. I want him poor enough to need a gofundme when his drug abuse takes its toll.

DOGE wants to kill me, by taking away my insulin. I have good reason to want Musk and Trump to be trapped in a burning cyber truck.
That sounds like self-defense to preserve your life.

Protests and vandalism against Tesla have damaged the brand
This is the narrative Musk and Republicans want.
The protests and vandalism aren't hurting his brand.
They're another consequence of him openly being a fucking Nazi, which is what's hurting his brand.
It's not that complicated, but a shit ton of people keep missing the point
“I can excuse some nazism, but vandalism is where I draw the line!”
…you can excuse nazism?
Won't someone think of the stock market?!

The people Musk told that empathy was bad don't have any empathy for Musk?

What a whining fucking maggot. Elon and that whole cohort of cowardly cunts are destroying education, Social Security, international relations, food safety, financial security, and any kind of safety net for the tens of millions of people who will fall through the cracks and die because of their greed. Yeah, no fucking shit people want you dead. It's not out of spite, or jealousy, or political differences. It's self preservation.
People cheer at the news that Tesla dealerships are burning. That isn't because they hate Tesla, it's because Musk is an insufferable piece of shit. He solidified his legacy of trash when he went alt-right. He's now the villain and always will be
And the fucker revels being a villain. CPAC appearance on stage with a chainsaw, telling Bob Iger to go fuck himself, Nazi salutes, the list goes on... His brain is obviously mush, but I kinda wonder how he thought this was going to play out for his companies any other way than it has.

I own a Tesla and I cheer at the news. While I don't particularly want someone to burn mine before it sells, I wouldn't begrudge whoever did it.

I don't want Elon dead, I want him to go bankrupt, fail at creating some NRx corporate dictatorship so hard that he brings about a socialist utopia, and then end up getting the drug and mental health treatment he so badly needs for free, eventually issuing an apology for becoming such an asshole and proceeding to live out the rest of his days giving Ted talks around the theme of how being the richest person on earth was the most miserable time of his life.

She’d a tear for the billionaire as he dismantles our social safety net to give his cronies a tax break.
There isn't much of a safety net to dismantle, but he'll find a way.
I don't want you dead, Elon. I want you to be penniless and without anyone willing to loan you money anymore.
I don't want you dead, Elon.
Let's not be hasty, now.
Nah, they're right. Dead people can't suffer.
While he certainly deserves to suffer proportional to the suffering he's causing, top priority is stop him from causing more - if that means he ends up taking a bullet in a manner that renders him incapable of processing what's happening, I'll still count that as a good start.

In Scotland we have a word for people like Elon, cunt
i mean, what did he expect if he threatens to slash social security? any attempt to slash social security is a declaration of war to the civil class; and if you're declaring war, you better be ready to die.
how can we respect their lifes if they don't respect our lifes?
slashing social security is murder, you have the right to self-defense.
Musk’s ties to Trump have hurt the Trump’s approval ratings
Wow, you have to be a special kind of shitty to actually hurt Trump's image, rather than the other way around.

Elon Musk and Trump are both traitors to Americs and deserve the maximum sentence for treason.
He is such a ridiculous asswipe that it seems like he’s doing it on purpose to help distract from other billionaires falling in line or random horrible shit the administration is doing.
I doubt it’s an act, and I suspect he’s really just that much of an asswipe, but damn.
He's one of the most prominent disconnected individuals out there. It's almost certainly not an act, he's just an idiot. One of the most powerful and influential idiots that has ever existed, unfortunately...

Imagine saying "They basically want me dead." and then wearing your child as a human shield. Father of the year.
I don't want to kill Musk, but I'm not going to shed any tears about anything bad that happens to him or any other racist, fascist piece of shit.
Don't kill him. Just tax him like they would with a normal working person. That would throw him into a world of sufferung.

I mean, I don't want to kill Musk, but I would certainly toast his obituary. The world would objectively be a better place without him on it.
They say things like this because their base wants to kill people they dislike. Most people don't want to kill people they dislike, they want them to win three Guinness World Records for longest lasting, least operable, and largest hemorrhoids.
Oligarchs deserve what's coming. The Oligarchs are trying to convince the people they don't have rights. At first the people will peacefully demand the restoration of the constitutional order. When the oligarchs refuse, the people will fight back, taking the fight to the doorstep of the oligarchs. If fighting starts, it will be too late for the oligarchs - the people are well armed.
Musk a martyr? FFS, these people are so dumb.
Musk: Acts like a Nazi
Society: "A good Nazi is a dead Nazi."
Musk: "Y U DO THIS"
Elon Musk is a real victim, instead of having "more money than anyone should ever be able to amass or dream of spending in one lifetime", now he only has "more money than anyone should ever be able to amass or dream of spending in one lifetime".
At this point they might as well go back to trying to make a martyr out of the United Healthcare guy who's name I remember about as well as Elon Musk remembers what compassion is.
It's a pretty risky game he's playing, being the public face of his business while also being an unelected president.
