It's almost like the whole planet is bullying xelon. He seems so sad, he's losing so much. So many negative memes & comments. Stories about how corrupt he is and how unsafe all his businesses are. I'll bet he's teetering on the edge of a MASSIVE mental meltdown. So, citizens of Earth, keep bullying elon!
all he had to do was shut up online.
That's how I feel about trump. All he had to do was keep committing fraud and crimes quietly. Instead he decided to make us all aware of what a colossal fuck up he is. Xelon is like his twin. May they both hang as US traitors.
two billionaires, unfathomably rich individuals, in the last ten years that having a good public image was overrated, but decided they'd rather use their platform to hurt people, and alienate anyone who liked them, but wasn't a raging bigot. is the allure of being mean to people on twitter.com that great?
if Musk had shut up just 5 years ago, he'd probably have more money, more respect, but somewhat less power. instead he's become the guy a lot of people are excited to see have a total breakdown, and hopefully lose everything.
when the gigafactories stop producing.
That's the name of the documentary of xelons fall from riches.
You think he'll pull a Hitler at some point?
No.
