Well, gee I don't know, let's start with this, literally just off the top of my head from the past day or two. https://x.com/esqueer_/status/1721235855241547877 but you can look through his likes/follows/rts to see plenty of fucked up stuff.

Following someone on Twitter doesn't mean you support them. It means you want to pay attention to what they say in the future. If I only followed the people I trust, and ignored the people I dis-trust, I'd never know what the people I dis-trust are up to, and be able to respond in kind. However, you've made your conclusion, its clear that your prejudice and hatred are all you need.

Yeah cool, except I'm talkin about someone who is asking questions about pedophilia, to give the most generous interpretation of that person, not someone who has some minor debates on budget allocation.

No one said you have to only follow people you like. But following that guy probably says somethin about your character. What? You clearly think nothing so keep sucking him off, good for you lol. I am just not as blind as you.

Where did I say that? I only noted that example would be one of the things he does that inspire dislike independent of some media conspiracy.

If you think following a guy who tweets shit like that says nothin about you good for you, keep sucking elon off, have fun. But not all of us are so blinded by worship.

No it's not at all a first world perspective. I live in the so called developing nations. Aside from some people who might live in rural areas in large countries that are hard to cover georgraphically -- and these people probably could not afford Star Link anyways -- 4G and soon to be 5G is ubiquitous. There is no need for StarLink generally.

I'm from said area you claim to be from. If you use data as much as power users in a month you might well save money on starlink. There's people importing dishes to use in cities in non covered countries today because of the condition of local networks in cities and the per bit costs Check the steam download stats for top ISP's. It might surprise you the performance Delta with alternatives. Telcos are complaining abo…

Fair enough -- I can see this might be a thing in say islands in Indonesia and the Phils. Parts of Laos and Cambodia.

The market can prove me wrong! :)

We get from ‘Elon is evil’ to ‘there are tweets that inspire dislike’ so fast. Thanks for playing, comrade.

I go outside, so I’m perfectly aware that it means nothing at all.

>keep sucking elon off, have fun. But not all of us are so blinded by worship.

It’s past your bedtime. Go back to reddit already.

Yeah, it means you want to keep an eye on someone who you may not think is necessarily a positive influence in the world. So?

> I am just not as blind as you.

I wouldn't be so sure about that. Hate blinds harder than honesty.

How you make the leap from "they absolutely want to exterminate your kind" (the 'kind' being those who are pro-Confederacy) to 'this is white people being replaced' is amazing. Nothing in Elons' response implies that he sympathizes with the Confederate-loving moron he's replying to. He's merely making the point that 'they' (whoever 'they' are) want to see an end to the kind of people who worship slave owners. This do…

Just cause you're playing glib and acting like you don't understand the rhetoric in that thread doesn't change reality. It's literally verbatim great replacement shit. "They want to exterminate you." The venn diagram between confederates and white supremacists is a circle with a smaller circle in it. Keep playin glib tho I'm sure elon will pay you any time now for all the hard work you do.

There is a big gap between fantasy and reality, and you seem to be stuck in the abyss. "Understand the rhetoric" works in an infinite number of ways - your complete and immutable faith in your own glib hate-train is just one of them.

Tall poppy syndrome abounds. It shouldn't be too much of a shock, alas, except they don't teach the realities of collective meta-cannibalism much in schools these days.

I've heard it described as crabs in a bucket or https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crab_mentality

All cultures have their variant. Its my belief that this primal instinct to consume those who achieve more than average is derived from our ancient history as cannibals.

> Clearly Elon does otherwise he wouldn’t do it? People are allowed to express themselves?

Nice attempt to strawman my argument. Clearly he has all the rights in the world to express himself. Conversely I have all the rights to express my displeasure with his actions :) Unfortunately I don't have $40b to throw around to amplify my speech, but that's what you get by being one of the richest people on the planet.

> throw around to amplify my speech

Musk was just as effective on twitter before he owned it. Owning it didn't have much to do with his own communication.

I think he's evil. That's an opinion. Did you expect a mathematical proof of his character? Did you want me to produce a documentary documenting everything he's done? Are you stupid? Can you read?

In my original comment I asserted he does plenty to inspire dislike without some media conspiracy to foment that disdain. And that I think he's evil/a white supremacist/nazi sympathizer based on his politics. Those are two separate statements you pea brained musk cultist.

You are laughably, childishly naive if you think he's following that guy ironically just to "watch out" for his problematic beliefs. It's so comical I have to laugh. "Guys, i follow all these nazis and terrorists to KEEP AN EYE OUT, not because i sympathize with their beliefs!! That would be silly!" Do you hear yourself?? How many stochastic terrorists, white supremacists and pedos do you follow??? lol. "Guys, i followed epstein to his island to keep an eye on him!!" Lmao what an absolute farce. >I wouldn't be so sure about that. Hate blinds harder than honesty.

I hate things he does, not him. I don't know him. I like other things. But on the whole I think it's pretty evident simply by his twitter what a piece of shit he is. That's not even touching the wealth hoarding or business practices. Simply his politics. I pay for star link, I have commended plenty he's done literally in public on a radio show I run. You're the worshipper who believes one can't point out all flaws in the man without being a "blind hater"
