General Elon Musk Fukkery Thread

[88m3]

He did not intend to fukk it up

He just couldn’t help himself

this and an important distinction


Musk couldn't read a room if it were on fire

20 million dollar annual interest payment ballooned to a billion dollar annual interest payment.

I get it, cost cutting where ever possible but some of these moves - cutting ~50% of the workforce - could permanently fck him in the game. Feels like a lot of one-door decisions, when there was room for two-door decisions.

The 2024 Election is going to be interesting... with either Trump or Ron DeSantis trying to use TikTok to appeal to voters, because Twitter is broken/or gone and no one gives a shyt about Facebook.

FCC Going after TikTok already calling for it to be shut down since it's owned by China

Elon is the incel that “made” it. He isn’t capable of running a successful social media platform because quite frankly he appears to be socially retarded

On the low, he's much worse than Mark Zuckerberg who is pretty much universally hated in 2022.

Musk: I want to charge 20 for blue checks
King: Eat a dikk
Musk: How bout 8 bucks

How the fukk did this clown become the richest man in the world.

Dad was rich.

Wealthy upbringing led him to Wharton and Stanford.

Having a safety net to not need to start a career + said degrees + daddy's money for funding + being lucky enough to ride the dot com wave.

I think he made 20 million from the first company he started. After that, it didn't matter. Alot of people pretend otherwise but, once you make a certain amount of money, you have to be retarded to not know how to multiply it. For a modern example, the Winklevoss Twins who also grew up rich and went to ivy league schools got 60 million or so from their lawsuit with Facebook. Having that money + having connections on the tech scene was enough to discover Bitcoin in 2012ish before the world caught on and now they're billionaires.

The winner from all this? Jack Dorsey.

Got out from Twitter just when it was getting crazy. Made billions off the buyout and will probably be the beneficiary of Musk's poor management we he introduces Bluesky as an alternative.

Just as bad as Musk but will come out looking like the good guy in all this.

This is what happens when you’re worth $200B, you can buy $44B toys with the sole intent to fukk it up

It also shows what a lie it is when we hear all that bullshyt about CEOs and other top executives having to work so much harder than regular workers.


Musk is forcing his employees to work 12 hours a day 7 days a week right now, but how much time is he putting in to each job? He's simultaneously:


CEO and owner of Twitter
CEO and product architect of Tesla
CEO and chief engineer of SpaceX
Founder and owner of the Boring Company
Founder and owner of Neuralink
President of the Musk Foundation



How much time does he legitimately give to each one of those operations? He can't give more than 10-15 hours a week each, especially when he's constantly traveling all over the place and obsessively chatting and hanging out with rich and famous people. Yet the companies somehow soldier on with that limited input.....
