Racismed : memes

Yeah so somebody grew up in a racist household that prioritized Protestant ideals about work and success. And then that person moved to Silicon Valley with Daddy's money and worked there during its bommiest years. Then went on to pump money into electric cars and rockets.

This all came to a screeching halt during Covid when all of a sudden, he had to not prioritize profits and success but rather the health and safety of his employees and others.

This sent him down a rabbit hole on Twitter where suddenly he felt accepted by all the Trump crowd. Now he's stuck there and slides further right each day.

This guy is now the wealthiest person on the planet.

Fuck Elon.

The fuck is he on about?

[–] [email protected] 132 points 10 months ago (3 children)

He thinks saying, I am cisgendered, is hate speech.

He literally wrote other- isms ... Criticism, I guess. He is an idiot.

Money. Too much of it. We should help him, take away most of that money. That'll cure him.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 10 months ago (3 children)

I heard he has a love of ketamine

It seems he is trying to get rid of his money as fast as possible. I suggest he send me $2 billion to start so I can offload it asap. I would be his most valuable liability.

He gets high from huffing his own farts.

Things he knows nothing the fuck about. As per usual.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 10 months ago

He's crying "reverse racism!"

I genuinely can't tell if the comic was added by somebody else to mock Musk's tweet, or if Musk is such a narcissistic prick with zero self awareness that he ""ironically" added this comic as part of his fellow-kids memelord act.

Truth is stranger than fiction.

[–] [email protected] 96 points 10 months ago

I checked, it was added to mock musk.

[–] [email protected] 38 points 10 months ago (2 children)

There's a simple litmus test. Musk would never joke about himself in a self-deprecating way, in any capacity. He has such a fragile ego it would break if someone farted in his general direction.

Just another example that billionaires didn’t become billionaires by being smarter than everyone else.

[–] [email protected] 41 points 10 months ago (3 children)

Unironically dividing the Proletariat against itself by stirring up racism among conservatives on a large social platform is the correct move for him to keep his dragon hoard, though I doubt it's intentional.

[–] shawwnzy 11 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I'd give him more credit, it doesn't take a genius to encourage people to subscribe to a philosophy and or vote for a person that will benefit you.

He knows what he's doing

[–] [email protected] 11 points 10 months ago (3 children)

I dunno, I've seen his Elden Ring build, and he's somehow a fan of New Vegas despite NV beating him over the head, so I don't quite believe that.

Just when I think I couldn't hate him anymore, he omits the Oxford comma...

Did you just grammerism him?

For real. Diversity could easily be considered antithetical to racism. Inclusion could be considered antithetical to sexism. But no, Chef Elon made pseudo-intellectual word salad.

But, "Worlds grossly richest man not big on equity" feels like an Onion article title.

[–] samus12345 13 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (2 children)

Also, "woke" more or less means "enlightened," so "anti-woke" is pretty much "ignorance is strength."

[–] pachrist 9 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I feel like wokeness in general requires empathy and understanding of the plight of others. Anti-woke means being unempathetic, and folks feel that is positive? I literally can't comprehend being for Team Sociopath, but millions of people will vote for Trump, so it's real.

I thought this at first as well. But then I thought he probably is that dislodged from reality that he genuinely thinks he's discriminated against when people mention equity and stuff like that because he's the antagonist of equity.

If everyone in the world is at least not poor and comfortable it means a lot less wealth for him; a big No No for PeElon.

When you remember he got his starting wealth from an apartheid emerald mine in South Africa, this behavior makes perfect sense.

[–] [email protected] 44 points 10 months ago

I’m generally sick of hearing about Elon at all even if it’s criticizing him, but this was a good one.

The vanity is off the charts.

[–] [email protected] 43 points 10 months ago (1 children)

When you make fun or point out the obvious flaws of the oppressor, it's not "-ism", it's freedom

Sadly, a professor I used to respect is following similar bullshit ideologies. Climate denialism, veiled racism, and bigotry. Once he moved out of California into a much more red area, he plummeted.

When I was younger I assumed I was surrounded by differing opinions. Now it feels more like I'm surrounded by idiots.

It's not racism when you, a single person, are hated. Its people telling the truth about you.

Bet a board member tried to explain to him what DEI is two minutes before he Xat this Xeet.

Muskrat’s diversity plan is “exploit Indians who rely on Xitter visa sponsorship”

I propose an alternative nominative singular: Xit. He Xat this Xit on Xitter...

I am very confused. Is that a comic he had made about himself? I wouldn't be entirely surprised...

He's ok with racism and sexism, so dei is good, right?

Can't stop thinking about the guy that replies to every one of his posts, asking to have lunch with him and give him a job.

Dude's been doing that shit for years.
