He's a billionaire, of course he has some relations with crime, Musk is just dumb enough to say the quiet part out loud.
Fuck all billionaires. Including this Mexican one idfc what he did to musk
I would hesitate before judging someone purely on one statistic but it's difficult to imagine how one amasses that sort of money ethically. If I asked you to think of a billionaire that you would leave in charge of children, who would you pick? Bill Gates perhaps, Warren Buffet? It's slim pickings.
Jon Ronson advanced the idea that psychopathy is over-represented in the CEO class and presented some compelling examples in his book, The Psychopath Test.

It simply can't be done. How can it be ethical to earn millions times more than you could ever need, while others are in need of it. That's unethical regardless of if how it was earned. Not a big Jesus fan, but he's quite right about the need to share with those in need.

Bill flew on the Lolita Express repeatedly, so I hope nobody chooses that one
It's an extremely fraught decision, for sure.
Inb4 a lunch mobb forms for Billionaire George Lucas...
Best heavy blow for Tsarlink
He just fucked with the wrong Mexican.
Edit: Lemmy has trouble with gif?
Not in my experience
I dont think thats the case. Maybe the client you are using has problems with it?
Blessed be our own latino billionaire god. May Carlos Slim corporatocracy reign supreme over Musk's
You love to see it
Good. Unfortunately, it just means Elon will be enraged to decimate America further.
Really hoping for a Player 2. I'd do it myself but I'm a terrible shot.
"Dear Slim, I wrote you, but you still ain't callin'..."
Oh no! Anyway I made fantastic Swedish coffee at this morning, really delicious, I can say.

Musk is a deranged idiot
Jesus dude... if you want to piss away your money, I'd take a couple hundred million
Turns out being a Nazi is bad for business in the 'globalist' 21st century.
Sauce please? Because that is fucking amazing!
That must count as the most financially ruinous tweet ever. Serves Elon right for being a total prick.
Wasn’t president Musk’s announcement that he was going to BUY twitter a tweet? Seeing as it’s worth fuck-all now that’s in the running.
tbf the tweet itsself didnt cause the downfall though.
Yeah though his total demolition of the company wasn’t done by that tweet. He had to keep making bad decisions for that!
To be fair, buying Twitter was instrumental in him getting Trump to the presidency.
Like any Billionaire, he needed a media outlet to manufacture consent with - I'd argue that him buying Twitter wasn't as stupid a move as it initially seems.
I think he used Twitter to help Trump as a way of salvaging that investment, but I don’t think he originally bought it with that intention.

He must have checked his list of criminal dealings, saw that Musk was on it, and decided to correct it.
Elon musk must have read Art of the deal recently, it’s obvious in his recent business dealings
