    Why would he make a social media account under a fake name, instead of using his real name but make everyone think it’s an unverified parody account to say whatever he wants and never get suspected?

        He couldn’t even invent a vaguely clever ploy.

      Why would he want people to think hes a parody account? He didnt want to just say whatever, he wanted to influence public opinion in his favor. He used the alt account to try to boost his public reputation/give the appearance of organic support for his positions and opinions.

      He’s got literally no humans or animals that like him irl. He already is paying people for this job. He bought Twitter to be his friend so he could spend all his free time on there which is a lot and it won’t look as weird since he owns it. Guys brain is more cooked than a nfl player with cte.

        He bought Twitter because he wanted to pump the stock up, presumably so that he could dump his stock. The timeline is that Elon talked about taking Twitter private, paying 420$ per share, because 420 is the funny marijuana number. Twitter’s board then agreed to the buyout, since Elon’s offer was far more than what the company was actually worth. Elon tried to weasel out of the deal, but Twitter successfully sued him to force him into buying Twitter.

            That she was four when she became Elon’s stepsister is the worst part for me. If she had been an adult, even a young adult, when she and Errol met after he married her mother, it would have been sketchy (breaking the divide by two plus fourteen rule) but not in pedo territory. To have multiple children (Elon’s half-siblings and also his step-nieces) with someone you raised as your own child since they were four… it’s beyond.

          You know people say the love for your child knows no boundaries? Well, I know Elon is only a few years older then me, but I say to him: “ok boomer, fuck you”. He’s just like my mom. Love knows no boundaries, as long as you fit into very specific extremily high expectations.

          Because your kid doesn’t want to see you again and changes their surname, maybe you failed as a father? Maybe the fault lies with you, not with them? Maybe, when all of your kids complain about you being a bad dad, as well as your exes, not all of your kids and exes are wrong, but you are? Maybe, when your youngest kid calls you a fucking monkey, you’re a fucking monkey and should be ashamed AF… Or the entire world is wrong and you are right, because you’re a narcissistic psychopath so there’s no chance of you doing anything bad, ever.

              Yeah I agree, allowing people to be who they are is disgusting. People should only be who I allow them to be, according to my standards. /s His daughter now is a victim of a society which allows her to be who she really is and not who Elon wants her to be. So society is to blame. “Because everyone should live by my standards, and if their standards are different, my standards will be better so they should change their standards.” What a dumb fuck. His daughter is only a victim of Elon. As well as maaaaany others, and many more in the near future.

      This is typical autism behavior where you expect immediate rewards for good behavior that has long term benefits, except he had the awareness to make a sock puppet account to give it to himself.

      Not commenting on Musk, but here’s my advice to other people on the spectrum: allistic people don’t reward good behaviors immediately, sometimes they might not give any reward at all because they’re playing a completely different game. Reward yourself by giving yourself a personal and private treat for things you value, and don’t judge yourself based on others validation, or lack thereof. Set your own goals, live by your rules.

I didn’t realize how incredibly childish, arrogant, and downright moronic he was in an argument. All he does is talk over a well-articulated point before the person could finish it by insulting the other party and laughing dumbly at his own joke as if he had made some sort of zinger. And the very few times he doesn’t do that he uses blatant strawman arguments.

        I don’t think you need to have the stipulation for evidence about billionaires not being shit. I don’t think you can be a billionaire without being shit. If you have that much money and aren’t giving it away, you’re a bad person. That’s ignoring how you got it in the first place, which basically requires unfairly benefiting from others work without compensation, excluding inheritance.

        • I posted a long rant about this on Mastodon. I put timeouts on my posts, though, so you’ll have to take the short form.

          If someone came up to you and gave you a million dollars that you have to spend on yourself in a single day, almost anybody could quite easily do it. Most people (perhaps all people?) have a little list in the back of their mind of what they’d like to buy as a dream that’s out of reach. For instance I’d buy a nice plot of land in B.C. and build a house on it. Or I’d get a large apartment in Wuhan and fill one room with bookshelves positively dripping with books.

          Now in this thought exercise this person comes back and gives you a million dollars the next day. And the next. And the next. And the next. Each day you have to spend a million dollars on yourself. Not donate to charity, not buy things for your friends. You have to spend the whole million on yourself.

          How long would it take you to run out of things you really need or want? Would you last a week? A month? Well to reach a billion dollars you’d have to do this EVERY DAY FOR ALMOST THREE YEARS. Day after day you’d be spending money on more and more bizarre things. A car? Hell, no! You’ve got ten of them about now. A home? God, another one!? That would be number seven. You’d have every valuable collectible you’d ever desired, and likely multiple copies of each. This spending a million dollars a day for that long would, if you’re sane, drive you literally crazy. There’s a very real chance you’d have a nervous breakdown.

          A billionaire is the person for whom this isn’t enough.
