Elon Musk is backing the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD), triggering an outcry in Berlin in the run-up to a critical snap election.

“Only the AfD can save Germany,” the billionaire X owner wrote on the platform on Friday in the latest of a series of endorsements of European far-right parties.

Musk has recently supported European populist-right politicians in increasingly clear terms, including Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloniand Reform UK leader Nigel Farage. Earlier this week, Farage boasted that Musk is “right behind” him — and raised the prospect that the tech tycoon would financially back his Reform UK party.

That would be an amazing death. I wouldn't wish him to die so kindly. I don't mind if Musk would bleed out in the streets or something. And I'm against killing people in general, I don't see how that could benefit anyone... With some exceptions. Like Hitler, Putin, Musk, etc. But to be clear, I don't have plans and I don't want to push others to do something... I'm just saying I wouldn't mind.

Also, OD on ket is really hard to do.

It's really hard to OD on Ketamine. More likely he either will or has already developed K bladder... which is not fun and permanent

[-] LordWiggle@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I doubt he does more ketamine then me, and I have no bladder issues (tested). You'd need to be addicted or have a weak bladder or something to get it, otherwise you're fine. Just make sure you drink enough liquids. AFAIK he's just a recreational user, just like me.

Close friends have said quotes like "He microdoses daily, and macrodoses often at parties"

I doubt your doing K everyday, but maybe...

[-] LordWiggle@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

True, I'm not microdosing but I use it most weekends, between 1 and 5 grams per weekend depending on the length of partying.

Honestly I don't really understand why he would use ketamine. I am constantly confronted with myself, with what I've done and how much impact I have. If Musk would experience even 1% of what I experience he would jump of a bridge after donating his entire wealth to the poor. But I guess his narcissism blocks any self confrontation. His trips must either be boring AF or he's the biggest massogist out there.

I'm just speculating, I can't see in his brain. But I do see his actions and I can say without a doubt the world would become a lot better when he's gone. I never thought people could be pure evil. Always people have good intentions but are blind to see the damage they create. But with Musk I truly believe he's pure selfish and couldn't care less if he has to walk over piles of bodies to get more money and power. No good intentions at all. Even Hitler had good intentions. Trump is dumb AF, I bet even he means well, he's just too dumb to understand anything.

I think Musk is a true villain and the only good intentions he has are only good for himself.

I can't believe people are still falling for his scams and lies, after being exposed so many times. Honestly, Idiocracy is a documentary, people are using that movie as a manual.

Let's strap Elon on top of a starship and let that be the first and last one to reach orbit. In a cybertruck, circling around Mars like the Tesla roadster. It would be the best meme ever. Give him some Idiocracy "rehabilitation".

Stop Elon destroying the world even further then he already has. Please. Someone? Luigi? I prefer him to rot in prison for the rest of his life, so he can feel sorry for himself all those years. But I know 99% sure that's never going to happen with the corrupt justiciary system and his wealth and influence.

I am pretty sure his motives are simply to destroy modern society, especially in America so he can collapse the government and then create the tech bro feudalist society that they want to replace it with, with Musk and Thiel, et al. Being kings of their fiefdoms.

I am sure he rationalize it by thinking he would somehow be better.

[-] LordWiggle@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

He was born in a white rich family in South Africa, his father owns mines with horrible working conditions. What you describe doesn't sound like it's outside of his comfort zone.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

He apparently takes massive amounts of the stuff at parties.
