Welcome to the News community!

Rules:

1. Be civil


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.

Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.

4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.


Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title.

She's a dumb bitch maga influencer for those unaware

[–] fluxion@lemmy.world 80 points 1 year ago (1 children)

And he's everything she ever dreamed of

[–] Inucune@lemmy.world 66 points 1 year ago

Complete with 'messy public divorce and custody battle' fantasy.

Living her dream.

[–] AlligatorBlizzard@sh.itjust.works 44 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Shame there's no good outcome possible for the kid.

[–] rabber@lemmy.ca 22 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Kid has money and never has to work or pay rent, sounds pretty good to me

[–] rockSlayer@lemmy.world 41 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That just means he'll be conditioned to be another fascist in the Musk empire.

[–] HikingVet@lemmy.ca 19 points 1 year ago (1 children)

How many of musk's kids hate him? I know it's at least one.

[–] phdepressed@sh.itjust.works 15 points 1 year ago

How many really spend any time with him? Except for x12 being used as a shield I've never seen him with his other kids.

[–] floofloof@lemmy.ca 9 points 1 year ago

Set up to be materially wealthy and spiritually impoverished. These people don't look happy.

[–] 0ops@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

As someone who grew up on Medicaid and free school lunch programs and shit and worked a string of shitty jobs to stay afloat, I thank my stars that I wasn't some billionaire's kid. They might even think that they're happy, but you can see it in their eyes they ain't.

[–] Mac@mander.xyz 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Neither am i. Might as well be rich.

No need to be redundant. "Maga influencer" was enough to show the rest.

[–] CidVicious@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Seems like there's ways you could call her out as a maga without resorting to sexism.

[–] SreudianFlip@sh.itjust.works 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yea, just a reminder, folks, 'asshole' is available as a reliable and accurate enough term for shitheads like these two.

[–] ShaggySnacks@lemmy.myserv.one 1 points 1 year ago

Or fuckwits or hate filled piss bottles; is also acceptable.

[–] rabber@lemmy.ca 10 points 1 year ago (7 children)

How in the world is the word bitch sexist

I don't understand how it's possible for "retarded" to be a slur but "bitch" be fine. Either way you're turning immutable characteristics into an insult, so what's the difference exactly? I guess there's some contexts where it's not as bad, like when you hammer your own hand and yell "son of a bitch!". But as a sailor-mouth myself, directly calling someone a bitch, especially a woman, is vile to me. I don't care how big of an asshole she is.

[–] partial_accumen@lemmy.world 87 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Two horrible people being horrible. There was this one nugget in the article which was interesting:

In one text message exchange, provided in the filing, Musk acknowledged his son while claiming it was “necessary” for his child not to have his last name for security reasons. “If I make a mistake on security, ‘R’ will never know his father,” Musk wrote to St. Clair.

This is the first time I've seen him acknowledge that people don't like him.

[–] floofloof@lemmy.ca 36 points 1 year ago (1 children)

"If I make a mistake on security, ‘R’ will never know his father,"

Would that be a good thing or a bad thing for the kid?

[–] inclementimmigrant@lemmy.world 72 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Given his track record the kid will never know his father either way.

[–] MelodiousFunk@slrpnk.net 28 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You never know when the need for another human shield will arise.

[–] inclementimmigrant@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago

My bet is for organ harvesting.

[–] Cheradenine@sh.itjust.works 14 points 1 year ago (1 children)

There was that one time a couple years ago with a "Stalker" , but that was mostly just to whip up his base. The story dropped out of the cycle though.

There was there was the whole Elon Jet Twitter thing as well.

[–] barnaclebutt@lemmy.world 48 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

I heard he has a mangled penis from a botched penile implant. I don't care if it is true, because it is. Also, he apparently mails people his cum. Gross. At least he's doing it to another right wing grifter. May all they have weird genitals.

[–] SocialMediaRefugee@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

DOGE, Department of Government Erections?

[–] barnaclebutt@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Dicks Of Gross Enhancements

[–] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

The measure of truth is how funny something is.

Therefore, it is true that Elon musk has a mangled penis.

[–] sirico@feddit.uk 35 points 1 year ago

One less bulletproof vest

[–] wildcardology@lemmy.world 33 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Is this the kid that he wears for protection? Or is that kid somebody else's.

[–] hypeerror@sh.itjust.works 32 points 1 year ago (3 children)

I think Lil meat shield is Grimes's kid.

[–] Tramort@programming.dev 11 points 1 year ago

They call him x

Because he marks the spot.

With his chest.

This kid is new. News came out a couple of weeks ago.

[–] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 24 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Someone isn't meeting the promises made before artificial insemination, apparently.

Deadbeat.

[–] Not_mikey@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

It's weird, he already bought her a condo in downtown Manhattan probably worth millions, but she's not seeking child support and wants full custody. So seems like the deal was she inseminated herself and got a condo in return and that was the end of it.

So not really deadbeat, more that neither he or the mother want him involved.

[–] Professorozone@lemmy.world 22 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I didn't know she was real. The pic looks like AI.

[–] SocialMediaRefugee@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

She could've been built by Tesla

[–] Opisek@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

In this thumbnail it looks like Musk is partially in his ex's side of the picture?

I was just reading a comment about the media giving favourable coverage to Musk ("admits" vs "claims") and here he is literally being foregrounded!

[–] dogsnest@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago

It's impossible to feel more cringe.

[–] HellsBelle@sh.itjust.works 15 points 1 year ago

Ahahahahahahahahahaha!

[–] iAvicenna@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

something something family values

[–] TankovayaDiviziya@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

That woman has low standards when picking for a rich person to go with.

[–] arunshah240@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago
[–] Tedesche@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

In another message where St. Clair attempted to reconcile the dispute with Musk, the tech entrepreneur mostly ignored her message but said, “we do have a legion of kids to make.”

Elon Musk, one of the richest men in the world, behaving like a welfare queen.

Her personal gov data was suddenly altered...
