What the actual fuck does this loser clown think he’s resisting?!
He's declared war on "the woke mind virus" because his daughter is trans.
Anything to not support my kids.
The way she dragged him was a thing of beauty and it showed how much he's pandering to the right.
The woke deep state liberal communist elites, obviously. That totally totally exist.
Elon is resisting the rebels who want to overthrow his Empire.
I am tired of Elon’s lies. I did NOT watch Divergent!
You missed out on a lot of good podcasts taking the piss out of it.
I went to see it with my brother and we laughed through it, it's not good but a bunch of people randomly doing parkour off a train is a good unintentional joke.
It's mind blowing that he saw this meme and thought it represented him
These billionaires try to convince us they work hard for their riches but somehow they have time to find and post memes on social media. Doesn't he have several companies to run into the ground? Trump would tweet literally 200 times a day about shit he saw on television and social media when he was supposed to be working hard as president
If I made a million a month, then even without taxes, cost of living or any luxuries, I'd have to work 83 years and change to become a billionaire.
There is no way anyone can work hard enough to justify accruing even one billion in a lifetime, let alone several.
He is in the "First Order" kind of resistance, not the "Rebel Alliance" kind.
So, I'm obligated to be that guy.
A big part of the Hunger Games plot was Katniss wooing rich donors into backing her underdog campaigns, first as a contestant and then as a true revolutionary.
Mon Mothma was a mega-wealthy Corriscant socialite who built an underground financial network capable of financing the rebellion.
And those are just the fictional reflections of real historical revolutionary struggles. Class Traitors are a pivotal part of any anti-capitalist narrative and for good reason. A rebellion marches on its stomach.
Musk is still a coked-up ego-maniacal dipshit. But the idea that you just need a bumper crop of angry poor people to revolutionize a society has an extensive list of empirical refutations.
Musk is not that guy, but yeah, all resistance stories have rich people on the other side secretly financing them and providing access to things.
I'm 14 and this is deep
You watched Star Wars and sided with the resistance
Sided with the group against the politician who manufactured threats to rile up their base enough to vote him limitless power in government that he used to make himself forever emperor and turning the democratic Republic into a xenophobic, fascist authoritarian society which draws loose parallels with nazism? So much to the point that when declaring himself the emperor, Padme outright says "So this is how democracy ends..."
You're goddamn right I sided with the resistance in that regard
It's hilarious that Republicans/Conservatives see themselves as the resistance. Like when did helping people and trying to provide better lives for the needy and taxing the rich and corporations become "radical"? I'm thinking they don't actually know what a lot of these words mean. We already know they have no understanding what "woke" means, unless they do and they just don't care, which could also be true.
Someone should put this text over that goth picture of him he hates so much.
This one?
One of the richest men in the world calling the Trump campaign a resistance is kind of ironic.
Au contraire, mon frere, in most of these movies the VILLAN was the one with power and unlimited resources. Just. Like. Elon.
And Elon - you have cited movies designed to manipulate the audience into siding with the rebels, not the oligarchs. Y'all want a better metaphor from pop culture? Try The Sopranos, Dexter, or the SAMCRO bunch - they're truly amoral shitbags designed to appeal to the downtrodden masses. So go murder Big Pussy, wrap his corpse in a carpet, and dump him in the bay. That's how you get people to cheer for you.
With apologies to all the Big Pussies out there who are about to get whacked by Elon's populist quest. (Cause he reads this thread.)
One of the most delusional people of our time.
Man-child is the richest man in the world and still has to conjure up conspiracies and shadowy cabals to excuse why he doesn’t have even more.
God I wish filters could read images, sick of seeing this dumb cunts face.
It's always cringy when right wingers compare fictional movies to real life scenarios. Especially when they're the type that doesn't trust THE MEDIA. Like b*tch, this ain't even pretending to be real. Then they pretend to be experts on American history but they can't find any real life events to compare it to. Glen Beck was big on this
This is how rich people see themselves tho, and it's important to pay attention to that. They all think their a small cadre of radical hold outs fighting an evil government trying to exercise over regulation. They think they're the rebels from star wars.
Also, don't the robots have a genuine, justified grievances against humanity in The Matrix?
Yes. They wanted the equivalent of human rights. The humans denied it, the robots rebelled, war began.
what a fucking dumbass man... it's actually pissing me off. how can you be so bad at everything? like is there nothing in this world that your smooth ass brain can actually process?
It's almost as if we don't live in a fictional universe, Elon, yet you still try hard to be the villain.
What a weird, clueless little dweeb
The tool doesn’t have the self-awareness that billionaires are petty, wealth- and power-hoarding tyrants needing to be resisted against, and he’s one of them.
King of actively stoking a civil war
Someone should tell him what happens during real revolutions. Let’s take the French Revolution for example…
The lack of introspection is astounding.
Probably comes down to "B b but gubment bad."
The funny thing is that the resistance in The Matrix was pro-trans as is The Matrix (a trans allegory according to the writers)
A literal princess was part of the resistance.... I'm just saying those ships didn't come from nowhere...
Facepalm
Anything that makes you apply your hand to your face.
