For those that have had enough of the Elon Musk worship online.
No flaming, baiting, etc. This community is intended for those opposed to the influx of Elon Musk-related advertising online. Coming here to defend Musk or his companies will not get you banned, but it likely will result in downvotes. Please use the reporting feature if you see a rule violation.
Opinions from all sides of the political spectrum are welcome here. However, we kindly ask that off-topic political discussion be kept to a minimum, so as to focus on the goal of this sub.

The depression for fElon is sinking in.. don’t stop making fun of him
"I've never physically hurt anyone" says the guy who just dismantled USAID dooming tens if not hundreds of thousands of people to die through starvation, disease and conflict.
Clear answer asshole. Because your a nazi, because your destroying the government and putting people on the street that are civil servants. Not just that but I can’t visit Yosemite because of you. Not just that parks are running in skeleton crew. Way to show our tourist what a shit country we are becoming. There’s plenty of dislike there buddy. Spazz out and take a hit.
The person who cheered a genocide and called Arabs the enemy claims he never physically hurt anyone.
Well damn. Didn't even know about that.

Me neither. This whole calling people aliens thing is really something out of the most horror.. Realities?
C’mon guys, he didn’t personally design a car who’s doors won’t open if the car is, let’s say, “on fire”.
Security measures: we don't want the fire to spread outside, don't we?
So he's never personally physically harmed anyone while his heroes brutally killed millions.
Really puts his recent tweet about Hitler's "public workers" into context... Dude thinks he's exempt from blame because he's the one giving orders.
Which is fucked because the excuse 'I was only following orders' was completely rejected as a defense. That being said, the ones who GAVE the orders were punished more harshly than the ones following them.
Robotaxis will fail and kill people because this ketamine addict thinks that anything he thinks of will work flawlessly and will not admit to defeat or failure. Can't wait until the fallout begins between him and the bigger asshole drumpf. If your kids hate you that is the ultimate proof you're a fucking loser as a human being.
I will always hate that bastard.
I want my fucking country back, thank you very much
It's like launching a nuke at someone while claiming "I didn't kill anyone, I just pushed the button".
His post was too far away.. But I would have gladly commented that nobody physically hurt him either... It's all love
Really Elon, it's pretty obvious. Hard to imagine that a genius like you does nazi why we hate your ass.
Eat the rich. Muskrat should be the first. The others will fall in line
I would argue that knowingly pushing out incomplete driving software does count for physically hurting people.
What's the term... it's on the tip of my tongue? Malicious incompetence? Knowing that you're fucking up something, but not caring even in cases where its failure could have serious/life threatening consequences, and playing it off as a fluke, mistake, or silly misunderstanding?
My philosophy is that it isn't wrong to hate the hater. If you are a miserable bastard who's sole tenant in life is to be a hateful bully then you deserve to be called out on it and you don't deserve one iota of respect. My two go to questions in life with hateful people are 1. What is your fucking hang up? 2. Are you a baby? Most hateful people are so ill informed and trapped in their echo chambers with the blinders on that they've never asked themselves those questions. Force them to self reflect.
Apparently it only counts if you hurt people physically. Hurting their finances, support systems, healthcare, employment prospects are all fine.
I find it telling he had the self awareness to add that caveat, but in typical fashion, couldn't follow the train of thought far enough to arrive at the logical conclusion. "I've taken away safety nets from the people, most are one paycheck short of being on the streets with nothing to lose, but what's up with all these threats!?"
There's a recent unironic Hitler Did Nothing Wrong sentiment that points out he never pulled the trigger or a lever on anyone.
I think Musk is going that route.
It's also been used to defend Brian the dead health insurance CEO.
I've never physically hurt anyone.
This is called a suspiciously specific denial.
Like saying "I was never convicted for shooting anyone in the head with a 9mm."
The full quote is even worse.
My companies make great products that people love and I’ve never physically hurt anyone.
So why the hate and violence against me?
Because I am a deadly threat to the woke mind parasite and the humans it controls.
So basically he's saying - "I never harm anyone...the left only hates me because I'm a deadly threat to them (and that thing I made up to dismiss everything they say)"
Also, just wanna point out he's definitely killed/is killing people.
I like how Bill Burr calls him: "the Twitter guy" I bet that hurts his ego more than fElon etc
His confusion has got to be completely feigned. I can't imagine even a billionaire doesn't understand what firing thousands of people does to their lives.
Either way there's no sympathy here. Bitch could've solved world hunger if he thought of anyone else for a single moment that wasn't for a press release.
"I've never physically hurt anyone" says the man setting back cancer research in the US by decades and purposely starving poor people abroad (and at home).
He has hurt plenty of people though.
People have DIED because his cars are shit & he lied about what they can actually do.
