Elon. C'mon...give us a little salute. You know you want to.

If it’s so fake, why did he say that the German neonazi party is the only hope for Germany?

Man, who would have thought that throwing a Nazi salute, and then when people point it out, making a bunch of Nazi jokes instead of denying it would get you labeled a Nazi?

That's the damning part for me. If it really was a screw up, why would you not immediately say "Oops, that was not what I intended! I just got caught up in the moment and definitely was not trying to give a Nazi salute!" Like, I'd still hate the guy because he's got a shitty ego, but I wouldn't consider him a full-on Nazi. People make grand gestures when in front of a crowd, and let's face it, a Nazi salute is not exactly a complicated gesture. I can see someone making that mistake when they're just trying to be animated.

But he didn't deny it! He instead went on Twitter and immediately started saying shit like "I did Nazi that coming." What the fuck did you expect would happen?

What positive stuff? Like I'm legitimately asking.

He is cartoonishly evil.

Bullying and whining are two things that are not what a real man would do. Speaks volumes of Elon and Trump.

Show us your titties Elon, you little bitch

He's so sad, it's kinda remarkable. He's like the epitome of a narcissistic billionaire CEO.

The insecurity is palpable. I sincerely hope this will be remembered and studied.

Aw gee, does somebody want some empathy? Somebody who says that empathy is the big problem in the USA?

[–] zephorah@lemm.ee 18 points 3 days ago

There’s nothing fake about a public Seig heil x2

[–] arc@lemm.ee 7 points 3 days ago

I loved his whining a few weeks back that he hadn't "physically harmed" anybody and the implication that all the haters were big meanies. Meanwhile his minions at his direction were slashing programs that were saving people's lives through their existence - health, welfare, medical research, disease prevention, pollution & air quality, road safety, food aid etc.

So did he straight up murder people? No, he did it indirectly. But he may as well have. Thousands and thousands of people will die because of him. But let's all feel sorry for the billionaire douchebag who never cared about anyone else once in his entire life.

The tears of a clown.

[–] rational_lib@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

I mean he's not wrong about the first part. But as for the second part, the Nazi stuff and lack of anything positive is more cause than effect. Third part depends on the eye of the beholder.

Musk is that kid in middle school who went out of his way to act smug and edgy in a desperate attempt to impress the other kids but it was all so cringey and irritating that it just made everyone hate him, but he was so dysfunctional that all he could do was try even harder to be smug and edgy, which just made the other kids hate him even more, and 'round and 'round it went until finally somebody decked him and then his mom complained to the administration because the other kids were bullying her baby.

[–] theneverfox@pawb.social 14 points 3 days ago

You're make this sound like it's a metaphor or something...

But Musk is that kid literally, and last year one of the other billionaires did try to fight him for being unbearable until his mom literally stepped in and helped him back out

He's a rich manchild who people put up with when he let them play with his cool toys. Then he went from the weird rich kid to a total asshole the second he thought this was loyalty... Now he's crying about being bullied because everyone is turning against him, despite continuing to fuck absolutely everyone over

"Lugenpresse"

Uh huh. Fucking Nazi.

[–] LordWiggle@lemmy.world 9 points 3 days ago

If you call fact checking, calling out your lies and listing facts negative propaganda, then sure. And it's not "fake" nazi stuff, it's just nazi stuff.

[–] ihatefascist@lemm.ee 8 points 3 days ago

What a pathetic manchild

[–] towelie@lemm.ee 6 points 3 days ago

I like the style of that crying face emoji; anyone know where I can find the pack?
