Thanks, Elon Musk, for debunking the myth that billionaires are smart and capitalism is a just system
I projected this and so much more on (formerly) Twitter HQ in San Francisco. You can see then are sign that used to show the company name.

Lyrics:
Well did you hear, there's a natural order
Those most deserving will end up with the most
That the cream cannot help but always rise up to the top
Well I say, shit floats.
If you thought things had changed
Friend, you better think again
Bluntly put, in the fewest of words
Cunts are still running the world
...
And if you don't like it, then leave
Or use your right to protest on the street
Yeah use your right, but don't imagine that it's heard
Cunts are still running the world
Dude has my respect since he mooned Michael Jackson at an awards show because he thought the awards show was a load of shite.
Recently I was listening to the podcast Knowledge Fight and heard musk speak for the first time on a twitter conference call thing with Alex Jones. I never knew how bad he is at public speaking
The voice is from a weak jaw and diaphragm but the words are from a weak mind there's a lot going on there
Being bad at speaking, and being a raging asshole who thinks 7th grade 9gag humor is funny are 2 very different things.
Nothing directly wrong with 7th grade 9gag humor if you keep it to yourself to giggle in your private time. Don't dump it over the world as a CEO, though
He has a lot of issues; I guess I just assumed that he was charismatic in some way I hadn't seen yet, and that that was influencing people into this cult of personality. But he stammered his way through nervous, awkwardly-worded questions like it was the first time he'd been handed a microphone at a lecture hall, and I guess it somehow still surprised me.
The fact that he was doing his level best to advocate for the Sandy Hook conspiracy guy, and to justify platforming him while he made yet more claims about the families, that I kind of expected. But I didn't expect him to act like he was nervous or awed to be there.
😁 if you're taking recommendations "Welcome to the 𝕏itter™" is something I'd love to see next.
Did you do something today that like thousands of people looked at and considered, hundreds of people approved of, and a handfull of people briefly discussed?
I just can't imagine spending my time standing on the side of the road with what is essentially a sandwich board, telling the richest person on the planet I think they're a loser.
by any loose enough definition - coding is philosophy, music theory is philosophy, your food preferences are philosophy.
same for "system" "paradigm" and any other loose synonym
Either loops or philosophy. IIRC to make it work you have to skip dates and numbers as well.
I think it's first link not italicized or in brackets perhaps? There definitely an additional rule that makes it always land.
I, who has written the comment, had the same feeling. I assure you that, being English not my mother tongue, was genuinely curious, but when I've seen the downvotes, I wanted to ask why, then I realized the I couldn't care less. If people feel attacked by a comment and they want to do a reprimand via downvotes let them do it.
Well, if it helps, some solar punk posts like this one go mainstream. I think there's only about 150 active solarpunk members so when a post gets close to 1000 votes that means non-community members are voting.
I've commented on solarpunk stuff that was mildly in capatlism defense (much more controversial than your question), and had great conversations/critisims with almost no downvotes. So I think/hope the downvotes are not from the core solarpunk community. It is still sad, but I would be much more sad if it happened and the main post only had 100 upvotes.
