This is the type of shit I used to read in books at school.

For those that have had enough of the Elon Musk worship online.
No flaming, baiting, etc. This community is intended for those opposed to the influx of Elon Musk-related advertising online. Coming here to defend Musk or his companies will not get you banned, but it likely will result in downvotes. Please use the reporting feature if you see a rule violation.

The guns were pointed at gays, minorities, liberals, and communists in order to free themselves from the tyranny of other people daring to exist in their presence.
And kids I'm school. Don't forget the kids.
I really don't get it' where this myth of freedom and democracy originated. Especially that life shows us real USA face all the time now.
The only freedom there was, was for billionaires to treat people like slaves.
Remember how you all were bashing Russians for not doing enough to stop Putin and his war? Yeah, it seems that a democratic nation with guns is doing even less. Gives you a perspective on why things are the way they are.
"I’ll never forget, I turned to Mr. Brown, one of the Browns made this crack (that Unarco managers were a bunch of fools for notifying employees who had asbestosis), and I said, ‘Mr. Brown, do you mean to tell me you would let them work until they dropped dead?’ He said, ‘Yes. We save a lot of money that way.’"
From an article quoting Lewis H Brown, corporate owner of an Asbestos Company, and ALSO the Founder of The American Enterprise Institute, a Conservative 'Think Tank' which pushed anti-trans rhetoric to help get Trump elected.
Someone needs to Luigi this dumb fuck already
But think about all the money they saved in order to fork it out to shareholders?
Let the blade fall.
Do it already. Miss one Social Security payment and see the boomers go absolutely bonkers.
Maybe we should send him to this CECOT

If they are killing people, they are not doing it in broad daylight for all the satellites to pick up. This is a fucking idiotic thing that people keep bringing up.
I very much doubt they care at this point. No one is trying to stop them. They could do it in broad daylight for every satellite to pick up, claim it is "construction work" and way too many would eat it up and run with it.
He could do something against the average lifespan and off himself.
Seriously what the hell is this timeline.
And of course Rogan will endlessly glaze him
It seems that he's planning to make it so that people can afford to have families with subsidies and better salaries... Right? Or is his open to ease the processes of immigrating to the US so that new people can contribute to social security?
I'm sure it's one of the two. Or both
/s, of course
Dude is angry because he has to get Romulus to pump his limp dick up
This comment makes me think I probably don’t get the symbolism behind Romulus and Remus; I know Romulus killed Remus during a dispute on where to settle Rome? Was it? And they both were raised by a wolf? But uhhh, symbolism eludes me; what’s the joke with your comment? Me big dum-dum and need things spoon-fed to me.
He has a child named Romulus. His 14th known child (likely more due to his penchant for secrecy).
Oh thanks. I was overthinking it/didn’t know his kid’s names.
Heres me thinking Romulus was some kind of viagra competitor.
Take your botched tiny penis and fuck away off, you unlovable wretch.
The richest guy in the world, and he is so horny for any love and respect that the smell of desperation fills any room he is in. You can even see it anytime he makes a media appearance. The guy actually exudes a breath-taking level of anti-charisma. He's truly revolting to anyone who sees him.
All that money, and he has to rent wombs to manufature his DNA Storage Units/ Organ Donors/ Human Shields because no woman will go near him. Ive heard his dick doesn't work anyway, due to a botched wiener enlargement surgery.
So he thinks the gamers are his peeps, and they'll love him, right? Nah, all those great toys, and still none of the neighborhood kids want to play with him, because he's so fucking wierd.
It fills me with such glorious schadenfreude to see him demonstrating in real time, the old saying "Money can't buy happiness."
In The Wealth of Nations, the general gist is that it is the labor of the people that creates the wealth of the State.
So this gets interpreted by the oligarchs as: Humans only have value if they are able to provide labor we can exploit. Once they can no longer provide labor, they have no value.
That's how it is interpreted by pretty much everyone. Those who do not provide value to the society should not expect to get any value from the society.
I dislike Elon as much as the next guy but this post is distorting what he said. Social security depends on population growth to remain solvent. If people are living longer than projected and there are fewer working people, then you have a balance issue. I wish it was implemented as a 401k and each person gets back what they put in, but it is too late now. I’m all for increasing collection on social security and removing caps to make it solvent.
Or, we could uncap social security taxes.
Exactly. SS is literally the easiest government problem to solve.
To be fair we do live too long. Rotting in our failing bodies while we lose who we are is a fate worse than death. All to keep Republicans in power and scammers rich.
Living too long is NOT the same as not having adequate care in old age.
OK. So if you're one of the VERY few lucky people to have amazing healthcare then sure... Live forever. Most of us don't so what do we do?
Some countries actually care about their people and provide free, government funded healthcare. You could vote and write to your politicians in ways that support implementing that into your area.
I do vote, but this is America. I have no real power.
Not with that removed ass attitude.
Have you missed the part where fascism has taken over the US, in spite of the millions of us who tried to stop it in the polls, only to have a slightly larger number get duped into believing that the fascists will fix the price of eggs and that would make the horror okay? Or before that even how the rich have managed to convince so many of us of the lie that government run healthcare was not only socialism/communism (dirty words here) would ruin our healthcare system and we'd be forced to sit and wait for months or years for necessary procedures and die on the waiting list, or that the government will just flat out decide it was time for you to die through "death panels"?
There are plenty of us who have been fighting for this our whole lives, maybe hold off on that "removed ass attitude" bullshit for us just pointing out that we don't actually have power here.
People were already not going to be able to ever retire since at least 40 years ago.
Oh wait, I guess people is just realizing it
