Meh just seems like a lot of reason to be butt hurt at someone else's success. If you can't separate art from artist you are going to have a hard time in life.
As a general rule of thumb I choose not to put faith in people in places of extreme wealth, there's no real way to know how they made all of those millions or billions of dollars

Yeah it's kind of like with jaws. They get constantly warned about the shark. Yet people keep ignoring it flooking at the beaches. Pre-corono I thought it was a dumb plot.
@@biohead66 That's because the villains tend to be based off of real people or scenarios whereas the heroes are what we would like to see. Superman, more so than Spiderman, was pretty much the embodiment of what the average person wishes they can do (especially in his early comics).

@@toufikhb253 Meaning... what? That Lord Elon is blameless and actually is the exalted messiah genius that people like you have been brainwashed into believing?
People who are handed their wealth and position have no sense of how much they embarrass themselves when they take a title they haven't earned. Someone whose father I used to work for, recently started calling herself co-founder of her family business... which her grandfather started decades before she was born. 🙄 She treated her work in the company as a lifestyle - most of which she charged to the company - and had zero work ethic, especially compared to her father. If she had been founder, it wouldn't have got off the ground, let alone lasted two generations.
If nothing else, this whole fiasco is proving once and for all that he really isn't as savvy as the image his public relations team has been putting up
everyone i talk to all knew this wasnt a money maker move, what he said just like what i said we needed him to do long before he did it is, take it back from people abusing the "town square" to sway elections funny enough right after he started the purchase far left media began saying "he will be able to use it to sway elections" essentially admitting what they've used it for.
It's not even just his PR team, it's like whenever I see him talk to ANYONE, that person essentially kisses his ass. Glad his lack of know-how is being called out and addressed.
@@abeltesfaye_ he's been called out by some fairly large content creators. if you go to any random Elon short though, it's extremely rare to find a negative comment. (not counting my own) people generally praise him as being humble and generous, even though he has never shown these qualities in any real way. he says things like he'll help WFP solve world hunger when they show him a plan for how they'll use the money. then goes silent when they try to do exactly that. this being after he donated $5.7 billion in Tesla stock to an "unnamed" charity that hasn't said a word about it. wonder why...

We hold these truths to be self-evident: billionaires didn't become rich by spending their own money. They became rich by spending/risking _other_ people's money and then reaping the wealth others created for them.
JK became a billionaire by creating a world people wanted to read about and see on screen... though she gave so much away she's only a millionaire now. She wasn't risking/spending other people's money. Generally your point holds up as true, of course, but there are exceptions :)
He has a documented history of sketchy business practices, has a cult following of obedient fanboys, is very invested in meme culture in a seemingly very immature and desperate for the approval of others. He is the very definition of just because someone has influence in one area doesn't mean that they are deserving of respect.

As an astrophysics student, I hate how prevalent he is whenever I am having conversations about the future of space exploration. He always has to come up and it's always by someone who just has to talk about how great he is and how smart he is for making Space X as if he alone is responsible for all the feats made by the company, not just the name on the business. Beyond sick of hearing about him.
get used to it buttercup, Elon will be a huge part of future space exploration because of SpaceX, were you this pissed off when people solely credited steve jobs iPhone/iPod? at least Elon is actually make a change.
Imagine if you were an animator. You wanted to talk with someone about the animation techniques used in old Disney films. However, the only responses you ever got were talking about how great Walt Disney was, how he was a visionary, how he was a brilliant businessman. Sure he may have achieved much, but I would also like to talk about other things besides him. Also to your point of "were you this mad at Steve Jobs?" No, because I didn't run in those circles and didn't have to hear about him day in and day out, which is exactly my issue. Like I stated before, I have this issue because he works in the same field (roughly) as me yet the man himself is all some people want to talk about and it's getting old. It would also be less annoying if his fans didn't jump blindly at the opportunity to defend him, using the same old arguments time and time again, instead of actually reading what I have written and stopping to think about it for more than 0.2 seconds before writing a knee-jerk reply calling me a hater for having some minor criticisms about the culture surrounding this man.
Trufax: The Artist Known to Most People as Grimes, Elon's one-time baby mama, was a good friend of mine back in Uni. Back then she used to eat out of dumpsters and dollar stores, lived in a cheap-ass slum apartment full of crackheads, so she could host illegal shows and no one would complain about the noise. We were a bunch of 20-year-old gutter punks drawing zines, exchanging playlists on CD-R, raging against the machine. Years later, I saw that pic of her with this narcissistic liar (i.e. E) at the Met Gala and I thought oh, honey, if yourself at 20 could see yourself now, you'd never stop throwing up. I pray for poor Alpha X2 every day, that kid is going to need a lot of therapy. This video does a great job of highlighting the hard facts about E.'s lies and legal violations in business. But you could also consider more personal things that he doesn't hide, like his megalomaniacal penchant for having a fuckton of babies by many women - a trait you see primarily in cult leaders, who also tend to exhibit dangerous levels of reality-denying narcissistic tendencies.
I heard that Grimes actually comes from wealthy family and that she owned the apartment where she hosted parties. She just 'role-played' that kind of life.
I know exactly how that feels. I was lead developer on a simulator for a maritime education company. The company got mismanaged and they ran out of money and I got laid off and replaced as project lead by my delusional boss and replaced as head programmer by 3 students that worked part time. Needless to say the project has completely tanked, but it's still shit to have your name removed from the IP you singlehandedly created.
@@maklame3318 Steve Jobs was atleast a founder at Apple... Ray Kroc at least made apple the brand it was. They all put some sort of effort. Elon Musk's effort was pumping money and then just telling his engineers to make his lavish ideas (Remove the steering wheel on tesla's due to autopilot back in 2019), and then it ends up that they just kept it in because they knew he was a dumbass.
The fact that all of this has been public record all along and people still stan Grimes' ex and believe he is some sort of savior is just mind blowing to me.
it's crazy that they view wealth as a universal sign of goodness despite so many modern and historical examples of the opposite being true. like what's difficult to understand about how prone to corruption the process of accumulating wealth is?
@@gunterthekaiser6190: Yea, whenever someone uses the money someone's made as an argument itself, I like responding with "so did [insert horrible person here]".

It's sad, a lot time I mention that I'm an engineer people suggest I start working at Tesla. Your video perfectly demonstrates why I keep saying I don't want to, better than I could ever explain.
I've got a rocket scientist friend who gets that about SpaceX all the damn time. Even though she's the head of the minotaur rocket program in her location. SpaceX would be a step down for her, but because of Elon's publicity machine, people associate it with the most cutting edge advanced top tier space shit.
He probably bought shares in that scalp and pretended to be the founder too. To be honest it’s probably someone else’s head. His buddy Peter literally feeds off of the blood of young people. True story.
The worst part is the fanboys, I lost a friend because he couldn't accept that the tunnel thing was a stupid idea, I yelled at me that I was dumb and that Elon was going to revolutionize transportation, I'm still waiting for an apology lol
"people are finally waking up" well no plenty of people already knew about Elon, if anything this twitter purchase has made him more popular with a demographic. Delusional not to see it

intelligent people have always been aware of this. it is no surprise that there is a huge overlap between trump voters and musk dick riders. their lack of intellect makes them easy to manipulate.
Elon is the example of kid who was carried in the group on a project and if he did a project by himself he'd fail and barely pass at least that's what I got from. This video
This is why I've never understood why people talk about Elon as "self made". He so clearly was raised in ultra wealth and had access to resources that 99.9% of people do not have. He went from very wealthy to obscenely wealthy.

Is this view based on this video ? If so, I'm not a fan of Elon, or a hater, yet personally I was a bit disappointed in this video, which I was looking forward to from the title. I think this video holds little to no credence, it whizzes through far too quickly without providing enough reliable info or context to a claim or the info that is provided, and offers no alternative viewpoint or counter to the claims being made. When making a documentary, which this video essentially is, I believe you have to reach out to either the person you are making the claims about, to comment, or the next best thing you can get hold of. Even at the very least, considering this is a RUclips video, I believe you should reach out to Musk fan forums for example, inform them in detail of all your claims, and show them your sources, and asked them to provide a member to combat these claims in an interview. If you're being honest and genuinely trying to find the truth of the matter that is the sort of thing you should be doing. Yet this video, to me just comes across more as a spoon feeding for certain people who want to hear certain things about Elon Musk.
The weirdest people are the ones who watch Elon make some of the most baffling business decisions you've ever witnessed and then they play it off like "omg Elon is such a god tier troll genius". I saw a reply to him the other day from what looked like someone in their early teens and they were asking Elon to go out for lunch with them so they could bask in his brilliance and learn from him.
I thought Elon Musk is always a meme on the Internet because people never take him seriously like he's supposed to be a joke, but when it comes to his cult fanbase who boasts about being rich and call every street urchins "lazy", I didn't realized how dead serious these people are. Praising the man with a million/billion dollars when they are no price themselves.
For sure. Uh, I mean, no! Elon was a genius troll by firing a bunch of people at Twitter saying that they weren't needed, and then having to hire so many of them back after butchering the code (killing 2FA, etc. etc.)
I can’t imagine hearing everything Elon’s done in this video and still be a fan of him bcuz he’s “quirky” and is knowledgeable on memes… it’s insane what we’re willing to overlook just bcuz someone can make us laugh
Elon Musk has never made me laughed until he bought Twitter and sink it down with his arrogance. Some things not mentioned in the video are tax evasions or that Musk pays EPA fines every year as he keeps dumping cancerous chemicals into drinkable water. The EPA fines are typically 100,000+USD which is like pennies to Elon Musk.
@@EmeraldMara85 “sink it down” you guys naive or just trapped in your own echo chamber. Site’s working normally; you’re braindead if you think mass layoffs, which happen in every single company specially after a management change, will shut down the site. You have no clue what you’re talking about.
few years ago, when I was still in college, I remember researching space x and elon and realized he was a really good conman. I even studied energy trends for an elective and realized lithium wasn't the amazing replacement to fuel that he made it out to be. The grip he had on engineers like myself was crazy. I don't know how he still has a cult like following despite his circus acts
I'm a Forestry Engineer and can tell you that his vehicules make more damage to the environment than combustion engines do. That's because the process of getting lithium requiers deep mining. And mining does irreversible damage, it destroys the soil and makes it unsuable for at least hundreds of years if not thousands, depending on the damage. with combustion engines we can atleast plant more trees in order to capture greenhouse gases, but with only teslas there would be no soil to plant trees on. I think first we have to implented better and sustainable ways to get lithium and for the time being make more hybrid cars

My favorite Elon moment was when he did a presentation about Tesla robots, but he didn't have a prototype or any other visuals to show what it was going to look like, so he just dressed up a guy in spandex and then made him dance on stage. Investors proceeded to give him more funding, because the world is unjust.
@@yippy7951 it did not. The robot they showed could not stand up under its own power and was less impressive then stuff Boston Dynamics was doing nearly a decade ago.
@@kevinstephenson3531 Boston Dynamics is not comparable to Tesla's robot, the robots in the videos where they dance and do backflips are are executing pre programed instructions and do not utilize AI nor machine vision. Regardless it still paid off monetarily for Tesla. Now we'll see if this ends up being a real product, although I won't be surprised if it doesn't.
@@yippy7951 except they do have ones that use ai? Their movements are a lot less impressive than their normal counterparts but they’re still more impressive than Musk’s.
@@kevinstephenson3531 I was only talking about the humanoid robots. I assume you're referring to the autonomous surveillance dog robot, which I don't think is really comparable. There is a lot less complexity required for the AI of a robotic dog compared to a humanoid robot. Also the purposes are different, the tesla bot is aiming to be general purpose, doing a variety of different tasks which require advanced AI with machine learning, whereas the robot dog is designed for only one task. I think the robot dog is more akin to a robotic vacuum cleaner or those factory robots at amazon, they are designed for specific purposes in contrast to the tesla bot that needs to be flexible enough for retail.

Also remember, Elon took massive amounts of government subsidies. Part of the reason his businesses were able to survive. And even with those subsidies, he tries his hardest to run the companies into the ground.
Why I cringed when I saw a talk where he compared the government to companies and how anyone who is against big tech companies should be against government and regulations too
That’s good…I mean, the government is paying you? That means they like why you’re doing. Out of all the comments, this one is the least relevant. Subsidies help projects and innovation--gas and agriculture are also heavily subsidized. So obviously a space company will be subsidized, I mean, we literally have no infrastructure in space.
Elon is a temporary tool of God to get the scriptures of the Revelation of John get fullfilled with the speed of light. Thanks be to God to limit the time-window for evil morons dreaming of life on Mars and entertaining other mad phantasies.

When Tesla first started taking off, unfortunately I was kinda a fan, I didn’t really look into him at the time, I was an uncritical kid who did robotics and was excited about “a tech guy” being a celebrity. But the more I learned about him, how inflated his accomplishments were, how awful he was, I just lost all respect for him and now look back on my sort lived fan phase with colossal embarrassment.
I didn't notice much wrong about them till they started hyping the hyperloop. Literally the dumbest idea for transport. I remember reading about it in a book of fastest vehicles when I was in 2nd grade with it evenly there openly saying how it was basically a pipe dream (pun intended). Though I didn't learn about it till a channel I subscribed to a while before Thunderf00t covered it. I had subscribed to him long before that as he debunks scam products on kickstarter and things like Solar Roads or plastic roads greenwashing.
this. I never dived into him. I was like cool about Tesla, oh cool he likes memes. seems decent enough. never cared about him more than that. then later learn more about him and realized oh, he's not only cringe (which is fine if you're a good person) but just shady and has no real genius behind him.
We all start that way, there is no shame in that. It's when we see obvious signs of narcissism and megalomania and still swallow the koolaid that the problems begin.

Is it idolisation or respect? Because even though I don't really care much about him I do respect how he's gotten this far. He's a smart bloke, no matter what people may think about him, that I can't deny
Isn’t there a lawsuit against him stating he didn’t actually graduated with a physics degree and never got into a PhD? It stated he only have a BA in economics.
No doubt! I have zero proof the gas in my tank was made by people with degrees from college either! What a crock of shit the car runs fine, how can that be?
The funniest part of the whole Twitter disaster is that the $8 fee was apparently decided on through a public conversation with Stephen King. That's just... _so_ bizarre
He's an addict to social reaction, if any other celeb had reacted to the verification fee - notably *with any mention of money,* Elon would have jumped on it. If Beyonce had said she'd only pay a dollar a month to be verified, you'd best bet he would set the price that low.
Except Edison actually was an inventor and did actually invent the modern lightbulb and other really important inventions. Yeah he was also a greedy capitalist who stole ideas, but he actually made something using his knowledge of science and business. The only thing Elon has made was some terribly written code that had to be thrown out the second a real developer sat down and looked at it.
Eh, I don't know I'd even give him that. Edison's whole thing was hiring less wealthy yet inventive people to solve problems that needed solving with the premise from him being that he will give them all the funding they need, but the rights go under his name. Elon has a history of directly misleading people, treating people as a whole like dirt, a complete disregard for the nature preserve his rocket launch facility was built on even building beyond the limits he was originally given and going beyond his contract for the rockets to launch there, and retroactively claiming anything he is connected to only exists because of him wiping anyone else from record retroactively.
I discovered your channel through the algorithm, but I subscribed after watching your piece on the abusive RUclipsr mom. I watched it a few days ago and I’m still shaken by the validation. I went through similar situations with my parents, and at the time I really did feel like it was wrong, but never before I had someone put into words the feelings I had so long ago. this is really meaningful to me. Thank you.
People would always justify his failings as "Well he's a genius! Surely this is just a minor setback, we're just too dumb to see the bigger picture like HE can". It took years and years to finally realize that no, he was just burning money solely because he could afford to.
He got Tesla off the ground and Space X. Both notoriously hard industries to make work. Even Bezos is having issues with Lucid. I can't stand him yet the haters are just as bad as the cult. Me? IDGAF outside the fact I will be watching. I hope all these space companies succeed, and Elon helped kick in electric cars probably much sooner than they would have been otherwise.
Anyone that went through CS and engineering in college knows this guy is a m0r0n. He knows a few basic things but he's no where close to a genius and I bet he would struggle to take the derivative of a linear function.
@@steamedhamlet Ah yes, what he should have done instead is launch a giant block of concrete! oh, did you not know that? did you perhaps not know anything at all about the space industry? are you a good little NPC? The tesla in space was a payload for the first flight of Falcon Heavy, and the first flight of essentially every rocket in history doesn't get a real payload because of the uncertainty of success. And no sweetie, you can't just launch an empty rocket, because that doesn't weigh the same as a rocket with a full payload, OBVIOUSLY. Every other test rocket launch in history with a mass simulator (that's what dummy payloads are called) has literally just used a cube of concrete. The only reason they used a tesla instead was for brand recognition and publicity, but it wasn't some sort of ego trip on account of the options were "cool car ad in space" or "cinderblock lul."
It's our only way of coping with the fact that the people with the power to end the world are about as smart as a 4chan shitposter. It's horrifying. We have real life superhero villains and they can do whatever tf they want.

He spends millions on bots and publications that tote how great he is. Even went as far as buying Twitter to control what is said about him. If you control the media, you control public perception.
More like when that one insane person runs the show and when you tell them to chill out they just immediately fire you for "retaliation". Like how he just openly fired one of his chief programmers just for correcting him. He also had to take down that tweet as he's probably being sued for it. There are some pretty strong laws on openly firing people publicly.
@Charisma Musician Tesla's value has been dropping by like 4.5 billion every day since he announced his plan to buy Twitter. Yeah you can take statistics to back anything my friend. Clearly you didn't get the point of the video. You should never idolize anyone, period. You have no idea who they are behind the window they leave open to you. Even still Elon has openly admitted to lying to people about products in the past like how the Solar City announcement said all the houses around him already used solar tiles, when in reality they had yet to be developed. Even if you buy the tiles now like 5 years later, they'll tell you they're still a beta product and not the production model. Also do you remember the roadster 2020? I remember seeing tons of youtubers putting their affiliate code out just to get one, and like 5 years later the company hasn't even acknowledged it since even though thousands of people were supposed to get a free one as Tesla wrote in their own affiliate system. Where is it? We occasionally see a employees making a Cybertruck by hand in the back, but I haven't seen anything about the roadster even leaks in years.
@Charisma Musician none of that is due to his ideas tho, he stole the ideas of engineers he paid and the original CEOs and fired them and put his name on the patents, the only things he's actually come up with is the hyper loop and all the shit storm that is his attempts to run Twitter and both are pipe dreams that are falling apart because he's an idiot with a ton of money who thinks hes a genius when he's never grown out of a 10 year olds mental capacity his entire run as CEO of all these companies is literally "wah wah if you call out my bad behavior I fire you" which is why racism and sexism is rampant on his factory floors quite literally HR isnt expected by policy to give a damn beyond speaking his name negatively, he's literally just a stupid tech dictator whose long on the way to a massive wrongful termination suit, dude HR literally has been called out numerous times for pouncing on anyone who complains about the racism and sexism rather than pouncing on getting rid of the people making the workplace hostile in the first place, not to mention paying like shit, he's literally just trained you like a monkey to suck his dick because if you don't oh no he's gonna throw a baby man tantrum and try to get you way out of his way

Every company with a warehouse mistreats their workers, they are just very good at hiding it and the media supports this sentiment, because they have the same owners (WaPo for example). Like Amazon not having AC on warehouses, because it's cheaper to have an ambulance parked outside in case a worker colapses due to the heat.
Don't forget the people put into comas or horribly injured by rocket parts. Fortunatly for him hes a part of the "commercial" space side which means NASA doesn't even get the kind of oversight they give to Boeing for that kind of thing. Musk is the master at finding a crack to hide in to let him keep being a dick.
"I'm a self appointed savior that's going to use the excessive wealth I've hoarded to fix the problems that were created by the excess wealth that I've hoarded."
@@julianalipira2991 Did you even watch the video before leaving that comment? 😂 Here's other key words that you can research Apartheid emerald mine Child labor lithium mining I'm not asking Mr. Musk to hand out money to the world, but how about establishing businesses that don't rely on child labor while draining the world of it's natural resources for personal gain.
@@julianalipira2991 billionaires keeping their insane mountains of riches certainly doesn't help, most people don't ask them to go out and personally give all their money to poor countries or fix world hunger or whatever, that's ridiculous, just pay more taxes and stop using loopholes to hoarding in taxhavens and such. They constantly fight against that, they constantly fight against paying the people underneath them just a fraction more money, they fight against unions, basically anything that would stop them from being in an infinite upwards momentum of having more and more to stack on their mountains of riches that they don't even know what to do with it all. Obsessive hoarders is what they are.
Ok. Your channel just got recommended by YT and I'm so thankfull for it. Those badass intros, man! wow About this video on Musk, I cannot imagine how you could make it without mentioning Thunderf00t haha (he is one of the biggest critics on Elon and other impossible products around, but speaks more on the science side of things) And I love how, even with all you talked about, still there's a lot that people are not aware of like the fake solar rooftiles that he lied blatantly and the fact that he tried to not buy twitter, but was forced to buy by law. I'm not criticizing your work, though, because I imagine that in order to really talk about EVERYTHING about this guy, this video would be 3 hours long.
will never forget the time a classmate of mine said that elon is an "immigrant from south africa, the system definitely did not support him" when i mentioned that musk is privileged
Lmao wealthy people come to the states to take advantage of our out of control capitalism the same way Americans are starting to flee to other countries for better working rights and a healthier life balance
Well, the system might not have supported him (don't know about that, he's always been a white male, which unfortunately can still be seen as a privilege in itself), but weird that that classmate of yours didn't realize, that that's not even necessary, if daddy can support you and give you tons of money, you can use to get even wealthier... Just shows how good Elon was (is?) at making himself seem more relatable (or as I like to call it, at being manipulative) by even making up a rags to riches story... Guess that's why that emerald mine suddenly disappeared from his life (or his headcanon)
The illusion of success, some say is more important than success itself. He pulled some Elizabeth Holmes shit early on and really faked his way to the top. But the image is unraveling, much like Holmes did. I also find it laughable that he accused the journalists who criticized him for being "rich Berkeley kids" when his dad effectively bought his career. He had an incredibly priviledged upbringing and he's an example of people who are the products of generational wealth projecting themselves as solely self-made.
He seems to be using the same tactics but he has enough money to actually pay workers that know what they are doing. It's too bad that he takes his workers for granted and thinks he can treat them how ever he wants.
The difference is that holmes was “””self-made””” (born very wealthy grew to be obscenely wealthy) whereas Elon already had all the money he ever needed from daddy’s apartheid emeralds. He was obscenely wealthy day 1 and thus will face zero repercussions for anything where holmes had a rug that could be pulled out from under her.
"Fake it until you make it" ordeal. Some do make it, like Elon Musk, while a large majority fail. Welcome where luck is your only friend to reach success. Not to say there isn't any genuine people out there that haven't reached success by not being con man.
That's your takeaway? He wasn't born rich. His dad was rich, and he came to America by himself with just over a thousand dollars. Maybe do some actual research instead of watching completely biased, RUclips videos. Or at least watch biased videos from both sides. In fact, you should go watch a pro Elon video right now, and see all the amazing things he's accomplished before forming your obviously bias and preconceived opinion.
In what way? I think its been more entertaining than ever and its not like its been doing great to begin with not to mention more ppl have signed up and hes been taking care of the bots so now you mostly get trolls and its entertaining af compared to before.
It’s so bad that even tumblr staff is making fun of it and we all know tumblr is literally just a giant money black hole for any company that buys it lmao
This is all public record anyway. Grimes' ex aint even trying to hide this. Its impressive how his simps just overlook the lack of work and intelligence this man has shown in his whole career.

@@StickHits hahaha bro. Did you not see the news this morning? He just single handedly killed twiiter. Don't know what other research I need that to do to redeem this this man...
the whole elon twitter takeover thing has been such a rollercoaster to see in real time, its crazy how fast someone could turn a juggernaut like twitter to a complete joke in about a months time
twitter has been a joke for a long time, it was never a juguarnaught, it was found before the take over that around 3/4th of the active users where bots, they where failing before this and where not even earning money they where already going down the drain, It just took a man who basically bought it and a person who even these people before this where saying that he was a good person and that you should buy a tesla becuase it would save the world. He was never a hero we needed he was a hero who was basically a person who was weird.
This a very well thought out and presented overview of this refrigerator-shaped egomaniac. The way he's carrying on, you might need to do a part two in the near future.
@@theincrediblefella7984 what do you get from being all up in his ass? He doesnt care about you bro you're just a statistic to him, you're embarassing yourself
@@peepeepoopoo2749 he will still not have founded it. Also, if it wasn't anything of substance... Where did a $44B price tag come from? Is it generally a good business decision to pay that much for nothing?
Now, J Aubrey. Even in this you give too much credit to Elon Musk. The Ford Pinto was the first ever exploding car, Telsa just rode on those coattails.
i love how he says that he wants free speech to be better on twitter and then he makes people pay for their tweets to show up on the top of the page. Kinda takes the ‘free’ out free speech
Small correction: Elon Musk was never enrolled at Standford and never actually invited to be a graduate candidate. The woman who Elon stated had extended him the invitation has since stated that it never happened.
Musk is an Ivy League graduate in physics and economics. And decided not to do a phd which the world was better for. Imagine Musk working in some education job rather than setting up Spacex or Tesla.
The sad thing is that even if you showed this video to his cult followers, they would most likely not even watch 10 seconds or refuse to change their minds even if they watched the whole thing.
@@citizenblue It's opinionated, but it's also backed with sufficient evidence to support most, if not all his claims. The sooner you realize how bad and out-of-touch these billionaire turd muffins are, the better your life will become.
Ok, but tumblr making fun of, and doing fun fundraising for their company, by using the "$8 for a meaningless blue checkmark" thing is genuinely a great marketing strategy and hilarious
Elon Musk is pretty much like the evil counterpart of Tony Stark. He's maybe considered himself as a _"genius, billionaire, playboy, philanthropist"_ kind of guy, but the difference is that there's proof that Tony Stark has a heart.
It's all astroturfing, he's friends with Peter Theil who worked for the Pentagon on Project Lifelog, becoming FBs first investor a year after Lifelog was shut down. Thiels company Palantir works with Cambridge analytica and does data mining. Elongs other friend Texas Senator and Epstein Associate Bill Richardson is on the board of Genie Oil, along with Rupert Murdoch, Donald Rumsfeld, Larry Summers, James Woolsey and Jakob Rot Child Nothing to see here folks
😂😂Elon is the first time to monetize his haters and turns them into obsessed fans in disguise. He trolls them and trolls them mercilessly, and they still are expectant of anything he does, while he remains unaffected. It is delicious to see the uy winning over and over, while these channels don't stop and provide funniest content imaginable. Is fun because it is harmless, like a child fighting with this father 😂😂. They will teach his life in schools someday, that is going to be hilarious😂😂
I cannot possibly describe how satisfying it is to see everyone else hopping on the musk hate train. I've been telling everyone he's a scumbag for nearly a decade now, and for most of that time, people thought I was being too harsh
good chance they were confused at your rhetoric as they drove along in their lightning-fast Tesla's while hooking up to his satellites for internet...normal people tend to move forward and set aside the hate when they are having fun-filled lives.
so I have a friend that used to work at a Tesla factory in Germany and Elon Musk came for a tour and brought his kids with him. his kids started playing on a machine that is best described as a giant metal stamping press - one that was infamous for maiming numerous workers - like climbing on and in it. my friend was straight up like 'hey, that machine will kill them instantly, you should tell them to get off it'. Elon looked at his assistant and said straight-faced 'well that's just survival of the fittest, evolution'. I've long been trying to figure out if it was him just thinking it was funny, or just the belief that nothing bad would happen to him, or if it was such an insane disconnect from reality that he actually believed it. either way he didn't say anything to his littles.
@ooweeeooweee8871no, please don't involve the Chipstead here. I have no problem that Elon tried to survive, but not his children. For being his children.
@@radschele1815 One of Elon's oldest daughters is a transwoman who disowned her father after his toxic and bigoted behaviour. I agree - just because you have a bad parent doesn't mean you are a bad person. And minors are innocent.
I’m glad more people are recognizing his following as a cult. He’s run Twitter into the ground in less than a month, yet his fan base acts like he’s some sort of genius.
I think he's a type of genius yes but I am fully ready to hear your design ideas for how to launch rockets and re-invent cars....are you ready to present your well-thought out concepts? He's pretty good at making short cutting comments on the web, you are his equal there now lets move forward...
I find it hard to pinpoint what the difference is between Musk's try-hard, how do you do fellow kids, uncanny valley presentation, and that of Zuckerberg. Because there are definitely similarities, but also definitely differences in the particular way they each make my skin crawl. Is it that Zuckerberg is more robot, while Musk is more an alien child who was accidentally dropped here in disguise and then made a wish to be an adult? I think that's pretty close
@@Bingo_the_Pug Yeah, sorry, it's a nice dream but while his parents weren't multimillionaires, they had more wealth than 80% of the US public at that time. They could afford to send each kid to college if that's what the kid wanted and had enough money to buy a PC for their dental practice, which is where Mark learnt to code. I'm not saying he's in the same league as an emerald mine, but sadly, a lot of people we think of today as self-made, rarely are. Maybe it's just a dream they sell us poors to convince us to keep working, keep striving, because by gum, they pulled themselves up by their boot straps etc
You should. Of course you were conned by bots and shills and financial terrorism but as long as you learned your lesson and never let someone use trust as a justification.
i mean, it's not really your fault. anybody that has the kind of resources the guy has can keep up a pretty good facade. obviously he found the limits of this, but still, he spent millions of dollars on pr to make people think he's "the real life iron man".
So....he's proposing a claustrophobia inducing tunnel where only his cars can fit....Cars whose primary issue is that they often burst into flames fir no reason and the fire can't be easily extinguished? That's the kind of thing nightmares are for, not a legit project.

As a general rule of thumb I choose not to put faith in people in places of extreme wealth, there's no real way to know how they made all of those millions or billions of dollars
there's no way to become a billionaire through being a good person

Reading Superman comics as a kid, I was always frustrated that people in Metropolis never figured out what a snake Lex Luthor was despite all the awful things he does. Now I find that tragically believable.
Seems like the villains from comics are better written than the heroes. Still no Spiderman but plenty of Lex Luthor, Kingpin types out there.
Yeah it's kind of like with jaws.
They get constantly warned about the shark.
Yet people keep ignoring it flooking at the beaches.
Pre-corono I thought it was a dumb plot.
@@biohead66 That's because the villains tend to be based off of real people or scenarios whereas the heroes are what we would like to see. Superman, more so than Spiderman, was pretty much the embodiment of what the average person wishes they can do (especially in his early comics).
Lex Luthor is the embodiment of the "villain with good publicity" trope.
Its gotten to the point that even Lex Luther seems mentally stable in comparison to Musk I mean just with twitter alone...
Comparing Elon musk to lex luthor is actually kinda insulting because lex luthor actually invented some of the tech he used 😒
Lex invented a lot of things that work. He also stole 40 cakes, that's as much as 4 tens. Lex is pure evil
Wasn't Bezos the real Lex Luthor? Never heard Elon compared to Luthor, maybe cause Luthor is actually competent lmao
Lex worked hard to find the strongest kryptonite that could weaken Superman and make him a punching bag.
Yeah lex is anti alien but he actually helps humanity 😂
Its probably closer to edison tbh
*WAIT.*
Are you telling me that Elon is *so fucking vain* that he renamed Twitter to *the same thing as his failed pet banking project???*
Holy fucking christ...
YUP. The notion that X (Twitter) is going to become the new "everything app"... is literally X 2.0. Except using Twitter as the nexus to start it.

At least that's what I bet he told someone somewhere 😂

People who are handed their wealth and position have no sense of how much they embarrass themselves when they take a title they haven't earned. Someone whose father I used to work for, recently started calling herself co-founder of her family business... which her grandfather started decades before she was born. 🙄 She treated her work in the company as a lifestyle - most of which she charged to the company - and had zero work ethic, especially compared to her father. If she had been founder, it wouldn't have got off the ground, let alone lasted two generations.

everyone i talk to all knew this wasnt a money maker move, what he said just like what i said we needed him to do long before he did it is, take it back from people abusing the "town square" to sway elections
funny enough right after he started the purchase far left media began saying "he will be able to use it to sway elections" essentially admitting what they've used it for.
It's not even just his PR team, it's like whenever I see him talk to ANYONE, that person essentially kisses his ass. Glad his lack of know-how is being called out and addressed.
@@abeltesfaye_ he's been called out by some fairly large content creators. if you go to any random Elon short though, it's extremely rare to find a negative comment. (not counting my own) people generally praise him as being humble and generous, even though he has never shown these qualities in any real way.
he says things like he'll help WFP solve world hunger when they show him a plan for how they'll use the money. then goes silent when they try to do exactly that. this being after he donated $5.7 billion in Tesla stock to an "unnamed" charity that hasn't said a word about it. wonder why...

We hold these truths to be self-evident: billionaires didn't become rich by spending their own money. They became rich by spending/risking _other_ people's money and then reaping the wealth others created for them.
Inalienably right.

Imagine if you were an animator. You wanted to talk with someone about the animation techniques used in old Disney films. However, the only responses you ever got were talking about how great Walt Disney was, how he was a visionary, how he was a brilliant businessman. Sure he may have achieved much, but I would also like to talk about other things besides him.
Also to your point of "were you this mad at Steve Jobs?" No, because I didn't run in those circles and didn't have to hear about him day in and day out, which is exactly my issue. Like I stated before, I have this issue because he works in the same field (roughly) as me yet the man himself is all some people want to talk about and it's getting old. It would also be less annoying if his fans didn't jump blindly at the opportunity to defend him, using the same old arguments time and time again, instead of actually reading what I have written and stopping to think about it for more than 0.2 seconds before writing a knee-jerk reply calling me a hater for having some minor criticisms about the culture surrounding this man.
Trufax: The Artist Known to Most People as Grimes, Elon's one-time baby mama, was a good friend of mine back in Uni. Back then she used to eat out of dumpsters and dollar stores, lived in a cheap-ass slum apartment full of crackheads, so she could host illegal shows and no one would complain about the noise. We were a bunch of 20-year-old gutter punks drawing zines, exchanging playlists on CD-R, raging against the machine. Years later, I saw that pic of her with this narcissistic liar (i.e. E) at the Met Gala and I thought oh, honey, if yourself at 20 could see yourself now, you'd never stop throwing up. I pray for poor Alpha X2 every day, that kid is going to need a lot of therapy. This video does a great job of highlighting the hard facts about E.'s lies and legal violations in business. But you could also consider more personal things that he doesn't hide, like his megalomaniacal penchant for having a fuckton of babies by many women - a trait you see primarily in cult leaders, who also tend to exhibit dangerous levels of reality-denying narcissistic tendencies.
Yeah it’s weird how he likes to procreate with BPD gold diggers.

That's because Elon falsely advertised himself as self-made to get a better image and following. It was all very intentional
I don’t understand why people praise athletes when they were clearly had better athletic genetics
@@VOLUMEnightclub the difference is that athletes are competing against other athletes who also have "better athletic genetics" while elon was already richer than most of the population just from existing and could buy out the competition entirely
@@katromore1421 he’s only recently become “rich” (relative term)…when Tesla started ford got 6b Nissan got 1.5b while Tesla had like 500m yet it took over a decade for ford to make a car…Bezos was worth 100b when musk was less than 10b yet spaceX has cornered the space market while other companies bigger and industry longer…Musk has tonnes of faults I just find it interesting ppl can’t be objective about the guy…he can be both a genius and un-likeable a**hole at the same time.

he's the kid who bribed the teacher into pairing him with the smart kids. then once the project was finished he framed them and got them expelled from the school just so he could take all the credit during grading
Is this view based on this video ?
If so, I'm not a fan of Elon, or a hater, yet personally I was a bit disappointed in this video, which I was looking forward to from the title. I think this video holds little to no credence, it whizzes through far too quickly without providing enough reliable info or context to a claim or the info that is provided, and offers no alternative viewpoint or counter to the claims being made. When making a documentary, which this video essentially is, I believe you have to reach out to either the person you are making the claims about, to comment, or the next best thing you can get hold of. Even at the very least, considering this is a RUclips video, I believe you should reach out to Musk fan forums for example, inform them in detail of all your claims, and show them your sources, and asked them to provide a member to combat these claims in an interview. If you're being honest and genuinely trying to find the truth of the matter that is the sort of thing you should be doing.
Yet this video, to me just comes across more as a spoon feeding for certain people who want to hear certain things about Elon Musk.

The weirdest people are the ones who watch Elon make some of the most baffling business decisions you've ever witnessed and then they play it off like "omg Elon is such a god tier troll genius". I saw a reply to him the other day from what looked like someone in their early teens and they were asking Elon to go out for lunch with them so they could bask in his brilliance and learn from him.
I thought Elon Musk is always a meme on the Internet because people never take him seriously like he's supposed to be a joke, but when it comes to his cult fanbase who boasts about being rich and call every street urchins "lazy", I didn't realized how dead serious these people are. Praising the man with a million/billion dollars when they are no price themselves.
For sure. Uh, I mean, no! Elon was a genius troll by firing a bunch of people at Twitter saying that they weren't needed, and then having to hire so many of them back after butchering the code (killing 2FA, etc. etc.)

The threads post from his daughter Vivian really solidifys how bad of a father he is
few years ago, when I was still in college, I remember researching space x and elon and realized he was a really good conman. I even studied energy trends for an elective and realized lithium wasn't the amazing replacement to fuel that he made it out to be. The grip he had on engineers like myself was crazy. I don't know how he still has a cult like following despite his circus acts
A big part of it was the Iron Man movie. It really propelled him to cult status.
I'm a Forestry Engineer and can tell you that his vehicules make more damage to the environment than combustion engines do. That's because the process of getting lithium requiers deep mining. And mining does irreversible damage, it destroys the soil and makes it unsuable for at least hundreds of years if not thousands, depending on the damage. with combustion engines we can atleast plant more trees in order to capture greenhouse gases, but with only teslas there would be no soil to plant trees on.

My favorite Elon moment was when he did a presentation about Tesla robots, but he didn't have a prototype or any other visuals to show what it was going to look like, so he just dressed up a guy in spandex and then made him dance on stage.
Investors proceeded to give him more funding, because the world is unjust.
It paid off

@@yippy7951 except they do have ones that use ai? Their movements are a lot less impressive than their normal counterparts but they’re still more impressive than Musk’s.
@@kevinstephenson3531 I was only talking about the humanoid robots. I assume you're referring to the autonomous surveillance dog robot, which I don't think is really comparable.
There is a lot less complexity required for the AI of a robotic dog compared to a humanoid robot.
Also the purposes are different, the tesla bot is aiming to be general purpose, doing a variety of different tasks which require advanced AI with machine learning, whereas the robot dog is designed for only one task.
I think the robot dog is more akin to a robotic vacuum cleaner or those factory robots at amazon, they are designed for specific purposes in contrast to the tesla bot that needs to be flexible enough for retail.

I remember when basically every website worship Elon Musk. By God, I am glad that is over.
When Tesla first started taking off, unfortunately I was kinda a fan, I didn’t really look into him at the time, I was an uncritical kid who did robotics and was excited about “a tech guy” being a celebrity. But the more I learned about him, how inflated his accomplishments were, how awful he was, I just lost all respect for him and now look back on my sort lived fan phase with colossal embarrassment.
I didn't notice much wrong about them till they started hyping the hyperloop. Literally the dumbest idea for transport. I remember reading about it in a book of fastest vehicles when I was in 2nd grade with it evenly there openly saying how it was basically a pipe dream (pun intended). Though I didn't learn about it till a channel I subscribed to a while before Thunderf00t covered it. I had subscribed to him long before that as he debunks scam products on kickstarter and things like Solar Roads or plastic roads greenwashing.
this. I never dived into him. I was like cool about Tesla, oh cool he likes memes. seems decent enough. never cared about him more than that. then later learn more about him and realized oh, he's not only cringe (which is fine if you're a good person) but just shady and has no real genius behind him.

Isn’t there a lawsuit against him stating he didn’t actually graduated with a physics degree and never got into a PhD? It stated he only have a BA in economics.
I was about to write this. It's a shame it wasn't included in the video.
The fact he proposed the century old vac-train idea and rebranded it (Hyperloop), shows he doesn't know a thing about physics or engineering.
He never even started a PhD at Stanford. “Dropped out after 2 days” is another lie.

And no sweetie, you can't just launch an empty rocket, because that doesn't weigh the same as a rocket with a full payload, OBVIOUSLY. Every other test rocket launch in history with a mass simulator (that's what dummy payloads are called) has literally just used a cube of concrete. The only reason they used a tesla instead was for brand recognition and publicity, but it wasn't some sort of ego trip on account of the options were "cool car ad in space" or "cinderblock lul."

I remember seeing tons of youtubers putting their affiliate code out just to get one, and like 5 years later the company hasn't even acknowledged it since even though thousands of people were supposed to get a free one as Tesla wrote in their own affiliate system.

Every company with a warehouse mistreats their workers, they are just very good at hiding it and the media supports this sentiment, because they have the same owners (WaPo for example). Like Amazon not having AC on warehouses, because it's cheaper to have an ambulance parked outside in case a worker colapses due to the heat.

Don't forget the people put into comas or horribly injured by rocket parts.

The only heroic thing he’s done is technically being the reason why eli and lilys stock tanked
And even that is like, not even 20% thanks to him
Fake news buddy, it had no effect
@@Cumdown it literally did…. it’s all public…..
@@zoes4565 okay, here's a test to see how much you know. What else did the company reveal (legitimately) the next day?
@@zoes4565 'it literally did... Its all public....' 🤣
"I'm a self appointed savior that's going to use the excessive wealth I've hoarded to fix the problems that were created by the excess wealth that I've hoarded."
No wonder this narcissistic fridge dated Amber the turd
I by no means like the guy, but hoarded? You want him to go on world tour and give out money to poverty ridden countries?
@@julianalipira2991 Did you even watch the video before leaving that comment? 😂
Here's other key words that you can research
Apartheid emerald mine
Child labor lithium mining
I'm not asking Mr. Musk to hand out money to the world, but how about establishing businesses that don't rely on child labor while draining the world of it's natural resources for personal gain.
@@julianalipira2991 billionaires keeping their insane mountains of riches certainly doesn't help, most people don't ask them to go out and personally give all their money to poor countries or fix world hunger or whatever, that's ridiculous, just pay more taxes and stop using loopholes to hoarding in taxhavens and such.
They constantly fight against that, they constantly fight against paying the people underneath them just a fraction more money, they fight against unions, basically anything that would stop them from being in an infinite upwards momentum of having more and more to stack on their mountains of riches that they don't even know what to do with it all. Obsessive hoarders is what they are.
@@julianalipira2991 Being a billionaire is a mental illness.
Ok. Your channel just got recommended by YT and I'm so thankfull for it. Those badass intros, man! wow
About this video on Musk, I cannot imagine how you could make it without mentioning Thunderf00t haha (he is one of the biggest critics on Elon and other impossible products around, but speaks more on the science side of things)
And I love how, even with all you talked about, still there's a lot that people are not aware of like the fake solar rooftiles that he lied blatantly and the fact that he tried to not buy twitter, but was forced to buy by law. I'm not criticizing your work, though, because I imagine that in order to really talk about EVERYTHING about this guy, this video would be 3 hours long.
will never forget the time a classmate of mine said that elon is an "immigrant from south africa, the system definitely did not support him" when i mentioned that musk is privileged
...I have no words
Perhaps they thought he was black
Lmao wealthy people come to the states to take advantage of our out of control capitalism the same way Americans are starting to flee to other countries for better working rights and a healthier life balance
Lmfaoo I mean they're right, the system did not support him
But he didn't need any support... Because he's the epitome of privileged white guy
Well, the system might not have supported him (don't know about that, he's always been a white male, which unfortunately can still be seen as a privilege in itself), but weird that that classmate of yours didn't realize, that that's not even necessary, if daddy can support you and give you tons of money, you can use to get even wealthier...
Just shows how good Elon was (is?) at making himself seem more relatable (or as I like to call it, at being manipulative) by even making up a rags to riches story... Guess that's why that emerald mine suddenly disappeared from his life (or his headcanon)
The illusion of success, some say is more important than success itself. He pulled some Elizabeth Holmes shit early on and really faked his way to the top. But the image is unraveling, much like Holmes did. I also find it laughable that he accused the journalists who criticized him for being "rich Berkeley kids" when his dad effectively bought his career. He had an incredibly priviledged upbringing and he's an example of people who are the products of generational wealth projecting themselves as solely self-made.
He seems to be using the same tactics but he has enough money to actually pay workers that know what they are doing. It's too bad that he takes his workers for granted and thinks he can treat them how ever he wants.
The difference is that holmes was “””self-made””” (born very wealthy grew to be obscenely wealthy) whereas Elon already had all the money he ever needed from daddy’s apartheid emeralds. He was obscenely wealthy day 1 and thus will face zero repercussions for anything where holmes had a rug that could be pulled out from under her.
"Fake it until you make it" ordeal. Some do make it, like Elon Musk, while a large majority fail. Welcome where luck is your only friend to reach success. Not to say there isn't any genuine people out there that haven't reached success by not being con man.
So basically if Elon hadn't been born rich, he would just be another redditor
Yup and he would’ve been completely bald at this point lol
@@mimz1173 with zero children
That's your takeaway? He wasn't born rich. His dad was rich, and he came to America by himself with just over a thousand dollars. Maybe do some actual research instead of watching completely biased, RUclips videos. Or at least watch biased videos from both sides. In fact, you should go watch a pro Elon video right now, and see all the amazing things he's accomplished before forming your obviously bias and preconceived opinion.
He would have been nothing more than a dislikeable Dumbass that one would want to use as a punching bag
@@markwildt5728 mate he's not going to give you a Tesla if you try to make him a saint before he's even dead 😩
It’s crazy how well this aged
The only thing Elon has ever actually accomplished is the Herculean task of somehow making Twitter WORSE than it already was.
In what way? I think its been more entertaining than ever and its not like its been doing great to begin with not to mention more ppl have signed up and hes been taking care of the bots so now you mostly get trolls and its entertaining af compared to before.
Stop watching CNN and being a cheerleader for bias and censorship
@@itzkiblo worse as a business, much better as entertainment. It's losing so much money
It’s so bad that even tumblr staff is making fun of it and we all know tumblr is literally just a giant money black hole for any company that buys it lmao
The memes that have been created from twitters train wreck are pretty good though.
Appreciate the research you did on this. Damn, his whole life has been fraudulent but somehow he keeps getting away with this shit
This is all public record anyway. Grimes' ex aint even trying to hide this. Its impressive how his simps just overlook the lack of work and intelligence this man has shown in his whole career.
@@resurrectthenight well he kinda did, you dont see news like this on mainstream media, or is only 1% of the time
go to the Common Sense Skeptic channel. you will see why starlink will likely cause Kepler Syndrome to occur. 44k sats to do the work of 3 is not good enginnering
Sounds like you need to now do some more research and form your own opinion as it you just watched a hit-piece (With quite a few misleading parts) that only mentioned negatives.
@@StickHits hahaha bro. Did you not see the news this morning? He just single handedly killed twiiter. Don't know what other research I need that to do to redeem this this man...
the whole elon twitter takeover thing has been such a rollercoaster to see in real time, its crazy how fast someone could turn a juggernaut like twitter to a complete joke in about a months time
Twitter has always been a joke
twitter has been a joke for a long time, it was never a juguarnaught, it was found before the take over that around 3/4th of the active users where bots, they where failing before this and where not even earning money they where already going down the drain, It just took a man who basically bought it and a person who even these people before this where saying that he was a good person and that you should buy a tesla becuase it would save the world. He was never a hero we needed he was a hero who was basically a person who was weird.
Twitter is no juggernaut 🤣
@@chadraygun5268 but it was still able to function despite that, surprisingly.

You cannot insult souless businessmen this way. Yes they're terrible -- but they are not Elon Musk terrible.
This a very well thought out and presented overview of this refrigerator-shaped egomaniac. The way he's carrying on, you might need to do a part two in the near future.
r...refrigerator shaped...? Are you jealous that he's in shape and you look like sentient pudding?

Now, J Aubrey. Even in this you give too much credit to Elon Musk.
The Ford Pinto was the first ever exploding car, Telsa just rode on those coattails.
Dude, you've got to make a sequel
i love how he says that he wants free speech to be better on twitter and then he makes people pay for their tweets to show up on the top of the page. Kinda takes the ‘free’ out free speech
Eh, there's "free" as in "freedom", and "free" as in "free beer", as someone once said...
and bans people for making fun of him..........ya know like the constitution wants :/
@@ddjsoyenby: Wait elaborate on that please, has he done that already?
@@fetchstixRHD yeah there have been a few accounts banned for that.
A better example would be how he claims to want free speech but routinely fires any employee that speaks against him
Small correction: Elon Musk was never enrolled at Standford and never actually invited to be a graduate candidate. The woman who Elon stated had extended him the invitation has since stated that it never happened.
Every time, when Elon opens his mouth a lie comes out. He never tells the truth.
Musk is an Ivy League graduate in physics and economics. And decided not to do a phd which the world was better for. Imagine Musk working in some education job rather than setting up Spacex or Tesla.
@@Art-is-craft he's not. he has no physics degree. he lied about it.
@@HeavyMetalGamingHD
So you are saying Musk never graduated. Do you have proof of that.
@@Art-is-craft I don't care much about this topic, but for the sake of sensibility: do you yourself have proof that he did?
The sad thing is that even if you showed this video to his cult followers, they would most likely not even watch 10 seconds or refuse to change their minds even if they watched the whole thing.
I watched, and remain unconvinced. This is a hit piece
@@citizenblue It's opinionated, but it's also backed with sufficient evidence to support most, if not all his claims. The sooner you realize how bad and out-of-touch these billionaire turd muffins are, the better your life will become.

Elon Musk is pretty much like the evil counterpart of Tony Stark. He's maybe considered himself as a _"genius, billionaire, playboy, philanthropist"_ kind of guy, but the difference is that there's proof that Tony Stark has a heart.

Elon is the first man without a personality to have a Cult of Personality.
massive Computational Propaganda campaigns can do that. Musk has been running one for decades.
It's all astroturfing, he's friends with Peter Theil who worked for the Pentagon on Project Lifelog, becoming FBs first investor a year after Lifelog was shut down. Thiels company Palantir works with Cambridge analytica and does data mining. Elongs other friend Texas Senator and Epstein Associate Bill Richardson is on the board of Genie Oil, along with Rupert Murdoch, Donald Rumsfeld, Larry Summers, James Woolsey and Jakob Rot Child
Nothing to see here folks
😂😂
Yup
😂😂Elon is the first time to monetize his haters and turns them into obsessed fans in disguise.
He trolls them and trolls them mercilessly, and they still are expectant of anything he does, while he remains unaffected.
It is delicious to see the uy winning over and over, while these channels don't stop and provide funniest content imaginable. Is fun because it is harmless,
like a child fighting with this father 😂😂. They will teach his life in schools someday, that is going to be hilarious😂😂
I cannot possibly describe how satisfying it is to see everyone else hopping on the musk hate train. I've been telling everyone he's a scumbag for nearly a decade now, and for most of that time, people thought I was being too harsh
good chance they were confused at your rhetoric as they drove along in their lightning-fast Tesla's while hooking up to his satellites for internet...normal people tend to move forward and set aside the hate when they are having fun-filled lives.
@@whatyoudo9773 I wonder whether you get paid for that or just associate yourself with Musk that much
@@NonaMoreau pretty bad english but no I dont get paid to align with intelligent interesting normal people, know lots of them.
@@whatyoudo9773 pretty bad trolling lmao
@@NonaMoreau you are laughing your ass off? Wow! I nailed it whatever it was
so I have a friend that used to work at a Tesla factory in Germany and Elon Musk came for a tour and brought his kids with him. his kids started playing on a machine that is best described as a giant metal stamping press - one that was infamous for maiming numerous workers - like climbing on and in it. my friend was straight up like 'hey, that machine will kill them instantly, you should tell them to get off it'. Elon looked at his assistant and said straight-faced 'well that's just survival of the fittest, evolution'.
I've long been trying to figure out if it was him just thinking it was funny, or just the belief that nothing bad would happen to him, or if it was such an insane disconnect from reality that he actually believed it. either way he didn't say anything to his littles.
@ooweeeooweee8871no, please don't involve the Chipstead here.
I have no problem that Elon tried to survive, but not his children. For being his children.
He has plenty of children to spare. And plenty of women happy to help him make more.
@@JoeOvercoat ur mom is probably one of them
@@radschele1815 One of Elon's oldest daughters is a transwoman who disowned her father after his toxic and bigoted behaviour. I agree - just because you have a bad parent doesn't mean you are a bad person. And minors are innocent.
In my block It is called to be a terrible father and human being
I don’t get how he got so popular, he’s got the charisma of the mould in JK Rowling’s mansion.
I’m glad more people are recognizing his following as a cult. He’s run Twitter into the ground in less than a month, yet his fan base acts like he’s some sort of genius.
Some of them, who is not part of the fanbase, are sarcastic.
"Elon Musk is a genius that he saved humanity by destroying Twitter."
I think he's a type of genius yes but I am fully ready to hear your design ideas for how to launch rockets and re-invent cars....are you ready to present your well-thought out concepts? He's pretty good at making short cutting comments on the web, you are his equal there now lets move forward...

More to update later
Separate for better revenue. Unlike Musk, he knows how to manage things.
I find it hard to pinpoint what the difference is between Musk's try-hard, how do you do fellow kids, uncanny valley presentation, and that of Zuckerberg.
Because there are definitely similarities, but also definitely differences in the particular way they each make my skin crawl.
Is it that Zuckerberg is more robot, while Musk is more an alien child who was accidentally dropped here in disguise and then made a wish to be an adult?
I think that's pretty close
Musk has asperger's syndrome and Zuckerberg ... (too?) I don't know but I guess Musk is just way higher up on the narcissism scale.
“Then made a wish to be an adult”. Holy shit why is that so accurate😭😂??? Like the shit you’ll see in movies.
That’s it precisely.
Correct me if I’m wrong but I don’t think Zuckerberg came from a wealthy family so at least he’s got that going for him
@@Bingo_the_Pug Yeah, sorry, it's a nice dream but while his parents weren't multimillionaires, they had more wealth than 80% of the US public at that time.
They could afford to send each kid to college if that's what the kid wanted and had enough money to buy a PC for their dental practice, which is where Mark learnt to code.
I'm not saying he's in the same league as an emerald mine, but sadly, a lot of people we think of today as self-made, rarely are.
Maybe it's just a dream they sell us poors to convince us to keep working, keep striving, because by gum, they pulled themselves up by their boot straps etc
Coming back to this now is weird.
I feel so guilty with myself for praising this narcissistic oligarh for years. My bad.
You should. Of course you were conned by bots and shills and financial terrorism but as long as you learned your lesson and never let someone use trust as a justification.
i mean, it's not really your fault. anybody that has the kind of resources the guy has can keep up a pretty good facade. obviously he found the limits of this, but still, he spent millions of dollars on pr to make people think he's "the real life iron man".
You are not the only one. the world is full of low IQs, everywhere.
As someone raised by a narcissist, it's not your fault lol. They're charming af.
I was there too at one point 😔
How does a guy with SUCH big "How do you do fellow kids?" energy, have a reputation as a cool guy?
Because social media algorithms push few cool/funny things he does hard, and most people don't pay attention beyond that.
So....he's proposing a claustrophobia inducing tunnel where only his cars can fit....Cars whose primary issue is that they often burst into flames fir no reason and the fire can't be easily extinguished? That's the kind of thing nightmares are for, not a legit project.
Anyone stupid enough to drive a Tesla into musk's death tunnel perhaps deserves to go out that way.
