I hope people don't start liking Elon... However, it is fun watching them fight :3

[–] FateOfTheCrow@lemmy.blahaj.zone 221 points 2 days ago (5 children)

The enemy of my enemy has his uses, but that absolutely does not make him my friend.

[–] antonim@lemmy.dbzer0.com 84 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Yeah, like, if Musk is telling the truth here, that means has been protecting a child rapist for months.

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 44 points 2 days ago

Well, he's been working for a demented rapist for months, and everyone's okay with that.

[–] stebo02@sopuli.xyz 9 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Well guess what he is telling the truth and he has been supporting a rapist convicted felon, but so did half of the Americans who voted.

"That's why we had a falling out!"

If you see your enemies making mistakes, do not intervene!

Maxim number 29: The enemy of my enemy is my enemy's enemy, no more, no less.

[–] chatokun@lemmy.dbzer0.com 15 points 2 days ago

You sound like a maximally effective mercenary.

[–] shininghero@pawb.social 19 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (2 children)

Yep. Maxim 29 is in full effect here. Let them fight.

Personally though, I'm more annoyed that this may fast-track the death of the federal EV rebate program. I really wanted my future slate truck to be around $20k.

[–] Korne127@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago

I guess now is the time to buy

[–] Machinist@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Oh man, my son and I have been drooling over the Slate truck. We've been kicking around the idea of a '90s ranger electric conversion, but, the slate may mean we don't have to.

Yeah. I still buy shit at Amazon and Walmart. I don't know that I have the energy for that boycott.

[–] MimicJar@lemmy.world 60 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I dunno. If Elon keeps posting stuff like this and then follows it up with hard proof, I will definitely buy a Tesla. He's going to need to post A LOT of information and with A LOT of proof, you know the type that can be used in court. I'll definitely buy a Tesla and other Elon stuff.

(See how easy lying is. Fuck Elon you piece of shit.)

[–] HappyFrog@lemmy.blahaj.zone 28 points 2 days ago

Hehe, had me at the start.

[–] agamemnonymous@sh.itjust.works 26 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Don't think many people who dislike Elon now are going back, probably mostly just "Let them fight"

[–] CileTheSane@lemmy.ca 8 points 2 days ago

I don't want Elon to win, I just want Trump to lose. And also Elon. Fuck that guy.

[–] ccunning@lemmy.world 25 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Elon’s a POS, but if he wants to pay to try and take down Don John, I’m all for it.

It would be far from the dumbest thing he spent a fortune on.

[–] TimewornTraveler@lemm.ee 2 points 1 day ago

how is this going to be a "take down"? a felony conviction couldn't even take him down. this is just Musk protecting his image. Musk already razored government regulations for his profits. he just needs public opinion.

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 15 points 2 days ago

as predicted they are at each others throats, but in reality hes sitll supporitng him, hes tryng to force states to use his starlinks satellites through trump.

[–] Korhaka@sopuli.xyz 11 points 2 days ago

Hopefully they both go down together. In front of a firing squad ideally

Centrists have loved elon ever since his nazi salute.

[–] Coolbeanschilly@lemmy.ca 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Politics is not, and should never, be considered a spectator sport. Get involved in your local community instead of watching these savages fight it out.

[–] HappyFrog@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 2 days ago

Yeah, I'm trying to stop right wingers in my own country.
