They'd add a few zeroes. A few hundred million is less than a 1% increase.
Last I saw, he was angling for a $1 trillion bonus for his next round of grifting.
The targets they set for him to get that bonus seem pretty unachievable to me, though. It would take him having to stop actively turning people sour on the brand, which I can't see happening any time soon.
That's what they said about his previous ridiculous bonus package (following that outcry, Musk replaced the board with family and sycophants). Tesla's valuation is completely divorced from reality and I wouldn't be shocked if he somehow grifts his way into meeting the targets, at least on paper.
[sigh] Yeah, you're probably right.
Musk has had it up to here with all this discussion of how much of a piece of shit racist he is.
fox nazi barbie started the trend, laura ingram.
Because he's a piece of shit racist
Elon thinks this is the master race:
this man can afford the highest quality food there is, a personal diet expert, a personal trainer, heck even medication that helps him get in shape. and he looks like that. bro, can you git good.
Because you can't buy personal effort.
Peak human performance
Why have I never ran into anyone who wasn't a pregnant woman with those huge pokers? I mean, it's like a legit micropeen on his cheese.
Remember when they said "it was not a nazi salute"? Aging like milk and this point it's just mostly mold.
It aged like room temperature raw chicken the moment it was uttered
gagged just thinking about it thanks
Milk sometimes becomes cheese or kefir. This is aging like a fresh prawn hidden in the piston of an office chair
Aging like a bag of seafood in a mailbox in July
He diiiiiid?
He has plenty of things that should keep him busy, but does this instead. Those workers sleeping at the office must be truly inspired by his racist shitposting achievements.
He has plenty of things that should keep him busy
He didn't get to where he is by working for it, so why would he?
Why are ppl still using Twitter?
An excellent question. I don't have an answer for you. Laziness?
sigh both sides are so extremist.
/s !
Just because I want you to dig your hole deeper: unpack that one for me, will you?
Fuck Musk I was being sarcastic
If it walks like a nazi and quacks like a nazi and salutes like a nazi…
This sniveling weasel would take a race war over a tax hike. What a fucking little nut job.
He would play the race car 🏎️ 🏁
Can’t out race a racist.
Don't tell me a South African diamond mogul is racist...
like father like son.
14+sons, who he named after things that a 12yo would.
and a daughter selected to be male using IVF
defying Muskrat's choices by being trans and choosing a normal name
who is he racing
Himself, to the bottom.
We should really revoke his license for all that drug use.
Illustrating that hoarding resources does not equate to value or utility. This scumbag 'has it all' and is still unhappy with himself, still inferior to other humans however you wish to measure, and still a lame fucking douche who doesn't understand what women or anybody wants. Also highlighting why blind shouldn't follow blind, you could end up like this Elmer fudd/Brian peppers abomination
oh my god. us poor white minority. :'(
this is some real nasty bait.
I'm shocked that Elon Musk the Nazi cares so much about race. /s
Every time I see him in the news lately all I can ever think about is that post about how all we have to do is eat one Billionaire and the rest will fall in line.
This is the real reason he wanted to have "free speech" on xitter. Free speech for him to say lots of Nazi stuff.
This is very old, but it gives you some insight in to how racists think in South Africa:
maybe because people like you(musk) spend all thier time complaining about it online spaces, and not having sex.
He has enough kids already, no need to encourage him
Believing in archaic colonialist pseudoscience when modern science has disproven it beyond a reasonable doubt makes you stupid. I’m sick of this parasite class that doesn’t do anything except commit crimes, rape kids, preach a return to feudalism, dismantle everything that our ancestors put in place to help working people, rape kids, make backdoor deals and collect subsidies from our tax dollars. Elon is the trashiest welfare queen to ever exist. When can we send his ass one way to mars and absorb his companies that we’ve footed the bill for into nasa and space x?
Born and raised in a full on Apartheid specialised family, imagine this fucken retard is convinced he's a part of a superior race...this mother fucker that pisses his pants from too much keta...this mother fucker...fucken unbelievable
his parents were from canada, moved to apartheid africa because its not racist enough. his father acted out a porn fantasy and married his step daughter.
a pasty south african emerald mine colonizer spawn who does nazi salutes on major political rallies might be racist? what even is reality anymore
