Summary

A Delaware judge upheld her earlier decision to void Elon Musk’s $56 billion Tesla CEO pay package, ruling it was improperly granted due to Musk’s control over Tesla and flawed board negotiations.

Tesla’s attempt to overturn the ruling through a shareholder vote was rejected, with the judge warning against revising judgments with new facts post-trial.

Musk called the ruling “absolute corruption” and plans to appeal.

Meanwhile, Musk’s net worth has surged, driven by Tesla’s stock jump following optimism about his alignment with Trump’s policies.

Good to see.

this probably hurts him more than me saying he's an incompetent nepo baby. (the best way to hurt rich fucks is to hurt their wallet, after all.)

[–] Sterile_Technique 48 points 1 week ago (1 children)

the best way to hurt rich fucks is

with a guillotine.

[–] FuglyDuck 9 points 1 week ago (3 children)

The guillotine was actually meant to be painless. Properly constructed and sharpened it pretty much is. Or so I’m told.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Eh, I think all those pain receptors in your neck will send signals to your brain just fine, for a while.

[–] FuglyDuck 4 points 1 week ago

maybe you have a point. But can I loot all his money first and make him watch as i donate it to trans rights, maybe also some no-kill shelters. you know puppies and kittens. also, maybe end homelessness and take a bite out of world hunger?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

Nah, the sudden loss of blood pressure sends you into shock immediately.

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

The brain is alive for minutes afterwards so don't know what it would feel like.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Bit of an unsubstantiated myth that.

[–] Sterile_Technique 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I mean, it's a testable hypothesis, and we've got plenty of oligarchs.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yeah go for it. There's science to be done, for the people that are still alive

[–] WhatYouNeed 1 points 1 week ago

Reckon we should find out, using musk with a neurolink embedded

[–] Sterile_Technique 2 points 1 week ago

While a quick and painless death certainly falls short of the misery they cause, I'm more concerned about ending that misery to the masses; it's not so much about punishing the oppressors. ...even if they do deserve to be skinned alive and then drowned in a pool of lemon juice; that's just more work than it's worth.

[–] dohpaz42 28 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Unfortunately his wallet isn’t hurting. He’s still rich.

[–] Breezy 12 points 1 week ago

So what you're saying is, more hurt!

[–] coyootje 11 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I think hurting his ego also hurts him, just look at the amount of people that get banned from X for doing it.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

Dang, so instead of deleting my account I should've got it banned... That would've been better

[–] takeda 11 points 1 week ago

That sum is close to the 44 billion spent on Twitter, could that somehow be the payment for it via inflating Tesla stock price?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Probably? I'm fairly certain that saying mean things about Musk on Lemmy has no effect on him whatsoever.

[–] FuglyDuck 12 points 1 week ago (1 children)

You’re right. I’d say mean things about him on twitter, but that requires a twitter account… and that’s just gross.

[–] bitchkat 1 points 1 week ago

Temporarily have a Twitter account because Leon doesn't like people saying mean things about him.

[–] betterdeadthanreddit 2 points 1 week ago

I do like knowing that anywhere that assclown's name comes up (or other deserving parties), somebody will chime in with an insult or five. He'll never see it in almost any conceivable universe but on the off chance that this is the one where he's browsing [email protected] comments, at least we can make sure they're not all neutral or positive.
