Summary
At a Wisconsin rally, Elon Musk complained about personal attacks and financial losses tied to his role as head of the DOGE.
He insisted he’s not stealing from Social Security, saying it’s actually costing him money—citing Tesla stock’s sharp drop.
Musk whined about Governor Tim Walz mocking the stock’s decline, calling him “a big jerk.”
Despite the criticism, Musk is pouring millions into Wisconsin’s Supreme Court race, while lamenting the pressure he faces for pushing controversial reforms.
My father-in-law has been divorced three times. Each of his exes have told him directly that they left because he’s too controlling. To this day, he openly and genuinely states he has no idea why he’s been divorced three times - “I try so hard in marriage. I just don’t get it.”
Some people can’t hear the truth even if you rubber stamp it on their forehead.
Cue: Elon Musk.
Never underestimate a human’s capacity for self-deception. I think it’s our most perfected trait.
Poor Elon. Rich people really do not understand. Even if they came from poverty backgrounds, they lose perspective. They think they did it all by themselves to get where they are and do not understand that chance and luck play a big part in determining which ‘hard workers with an idea’ get ahead. The working world is littered with smarter people who just didn’t get the breaks to become super rich. Once they are rich enough to waste $25M on a judge’s election they really do not understand that for the majority of Americans losing their job can mean a quick succession to homelessness from which they may never recover.
And he’ll keep pretending to wonder why until a mob executes him live on Twitch
We could only dream such an ending
People are telling you why Elon.
What is so crazy is that at the same time I see a headline with “Tesla’s sales plummet 13 percent as Musk backlash grows” and yet TSLA is up 4.72% at the moment.
W T A F
Sales plummet 13%. Stock goes up nearly 5%.
Too many people shorting?
Shorting would drop the price.
Not always, right? Like if there is a short squeeze.
That is a very specific and unusual circumstance.
Shorts have to be bought back after the term. You borrow it, sell it, and buy it back after so much time and give it back to the lender. You think the stock is shit so when you buy it back it will be lower cost than what you sold for and you keep the difference.
Too many shorts all at the same time and now everyone is buying it back and driving up the price, but that just rarely happens, and when it does happen it will work itself out in a few days or weeks.
That’s because, like every other egotistical rich asshole, he has surrounded himself with yes men who are only around to eat his crumbs.
Imagine living your life unaware that no one around you actually likes you.
He was always like this, BTW. Even back in the 90s his relatives wanted him to stay out of the spotlight because of his poor social skills.
What’s amusing is that a lot of smart people were giving him sideeye even before he bought xitter and wayyyy before the Nazi salutes. It took the nonsense surrounding him when he bought xitter and after he seized power for me to realize he had no fucking clue what he was doing. And of course his magoff sympathies started to become more and more apparent…
When I saw other broligarchs wishing they could behave the way he did when he seized xitter (treating labor like dirt), the general problem here was obvious.
People justify their own behaviour and responses, they build justification for why *it’s ok when I do it because… *. People with narcissistic personality disorders and the such, who do very bad things, perpetually see themselves as in the right, to a delusional extent. The bad guys, genuinely think they’re the good guys. We all do it, to an extent, they double down, they go big.
Who else has been making bank being paid to protest, I was just at a fundraiser where George Soros was jumping around on stage gleefully after dismantling our government services and leaving the country concerned for their future. George was also handing out million dollar checks for a few lucky folks.
I am so happy George decided to get so involved in politics.
He knows perfectly well why.
He’s gaslighting so the people who hate him hate him louder, which he can then use as validation that they’re crazy or irrational.
It’s fucking disgusting and obvious as hell. He deserves all of the shit thrown at him and he knows it but doesn’t care because he doesn’t have to face any real consequences for it, so he escalates.
Everyone’s anger is his weapon against them, sadly because his supporters are dumb enough to go with it. He needs tangible consequences or else this will just keep getting worse.
I’m not certain that’s true. Even if he knew it was bullshit at some point. If you surround yourself with bullshit you stop being able to smell it.
You can come to believe a lie you tell yourself long enough and hard enough. He is surrounded by enablers who are also lying to themselves.
It doesn’t matter what he believes. He does need consequences.
This just in: man who despises empathy struggles to walk a mile in someone else’s shoes.
Fun fact, Solar City, a company owned by Elon musk, is infamous for signing people up for lengthy solar panel leases and refusing to repair them if they break.
Right now, without China, solar would be unaffordable by anyone but the rich in America.
Confirming he’s not as smart as he pretends to be
To stupid to realize how stupid he is
Maybe he doesn’t know because he refuses to listen to anyone who criticizes him, banning them on Twitter and calling them paid actors in public events.
narcissist never do. They are forever the victim and honestly believe it.
