Like sexually, by demons? Or like financially?

And we get to watch

Elon is destroying himself. Bad investment on Twitter and dumb political antics have made me no longer a potential buyer for a Tesla. I can't be alone in this.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Unfortunately it doesn't matter. With that kind of wealth he could (and largely has) fuck up literally everything he touches and he'll never not have billions. The most effect he'll experience is not being the richest on the planet.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

If it doesn't matter to him, then why is he still trying way too hard?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Billionaires always want more, and Elon will never have a true friend or experience real love. His current stage of trying to get something real is to make stupid jokes and put on a cool guy persona. Go watch the interview where he told his advertisers to fuck off. He immediately scans the crowd to see how his "too cool for you" declaration landed.

He's just a sad sack piece of shit but unfortunately because we still haven't made being a billionaire illegal we all have to put up with his influence over certain aspects of the world.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 19 hours ago

Completely agree. Making him less of a money maker is the best path forward for all of us. A Rivian will probably be my next ride. Really liking the look, performance and range of the R1S!

If Tesla wants to survive, the board needs to dump the Muskrat and the US government should follow, especially with his ties to fucking Vlad.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 23 hours ago

That's funny because he said it like it's a bad thing.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 17 hours ago

This is one of the more normal things he has said recently. Several quotes talking about literal demons coming after him. He might need whatever therapy program Glenn Beck joined.

If she does nothing else, this alone will make for a successful presidency.

[–] [email protected] 28 points 1 day ago

LET'S FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOO

[–] [email protected] 39 points 1 day ago

don't threaten me with a good time.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 day ago

Promise? 🥺

[–] [email protected] 36 points 1 day ago

Cant believe Tuker is endorsing Harris.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 21 hours ago* (last edited 19 hours ago)

You want me to commit vote fraud? Because this is how you get me to vote multiple times haha

[–] [email protected] 24 points 1 day ago

This makes me even happier about my vote for harris

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 day ago

Yes, AND...

Sean combs (diddy) will be destroyed if compelling evidence of the crimes he's accused of is presented, and arguments are made by his legal team, to the point that he's found guilty by a jury of his peers.

Same for trump...

Same for musk...

Even same for you little lord tucker and your, "wow, these russian supermarket shopping carts are just so amazing!!!!" internet videos...

[–] [email protected] 38 points 1 day ago

Threatening us with good news.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Why? What did he do?

Even if Kamala wins, the US doesn't imprison billionaires. So he must have done something real bad for this to be a possibility.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Russian asset. Election crimes. Just to name the 2 biggest.

His companies are deeply reliant on subsidies and protective tariffs - it's likely that the US would diversify ev subsidies after all this election interference from Musk.

He's been betting his financial well being on Trump winning.

Two for one win? Amazing even more reason to vote for Harris 😊

Eh, people like Carlson use this rhetoric to try to get the young male voters. The Harris admin isn’t petty and vengeful, you’re thinking of Trump admin. Worse people doing worse things have gotten deals with the U.S. govt on a variety of things. So no, Carlson is full of shit as usual

[–] [email protected] 47 points 1 day ago

Don't threaten me with a good time.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 day ago

Sadly, probably not.

The ultimate endorsement from that bowtie wearing clown!

[–] [email protected] 24 points 1 day ago (2 children)

He's on the hook for something, why do you think he wants trump to win

Don’t tease me Tucker

[–] [email protected] 44 points 1 day ago

"I mean, Elon Musk joked to me, and he has, I think, many times, that he's going to go to prison if Trump loses," Carlson said.

LOL. Billionaires don't go to prison in America.

[–] [email protected] 35 points 1 day ago

Okay, so what’s the warning? Where’s the bad news?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago

You can’t threaten me with a good time!

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Literally, not figuratively please.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago

It will overload his emotion emulation circuits and the head unit will blow.

[–] [email protected] 50 points 1 day ago

Ok, ok, you talked me into it.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 1 day ago

Billionaires are a problem.

[–] [email protected] 35 points 1 day ago

I don’t believe it, but one can dream.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 1 day ago

Oh no not the cyber cuck.
