To think Elon has lost his mind?

[JennyBeanR]

I used to be a big supporter of his. I was absolutely obsessed with his work on SpaceX and neuralink. His Joe Rogan interviews are some of the most interesting conversations I've ever listened to. Since he bought twitter I feel like he's been radicalised. I honestly can't square the man he seemed to be while building this extraordinary career with who he had become.
I still agree with him on quite a few topics, but his outbursts on twitter this week to stoke the riots is just reprehensible. His comments seriously make me feel sick. I really hope he is held to account when the dust settles. Although I don't hold out much hope.

In the app so can't set up voting properly, but essentially
YABU - Elon Musk is of sound mind
YANBU- you're right, he's lost it

That's grotesque. I hadn't realised he had 11 children and
it looks like he had a third one with that Grimey singer he'd split up with - so what was that about? just meet up to procreate?

and they are called X Æ A-12, Exa Dark Sideræl and Techno Mechanicus - which are plainly choices of very smart people. Techno Musk. I mean WTAF?

and that linked article makes him sound nice - this from one of the mothers:

Earlier this week, Grimes pleaded with Musk to see her son in a since-deleted tweet.
“Tell Shivon to unblock me and tell Elon to let me see my son or plz respond to my lawyer,” she wrote. “I have never even been allowed to see a photo of these children until this moment, despite the situation utterly ripping my family apart.”

I don't think it matters if the children are produce of the genetically smart if the nuturing fucks them right up.

If I believed in such things, I’d swear he is the Antichrist.

I thought he was God.

It’s nothing to do with reform not winning.
This goes way deeper than that. Way deeper and there is a lot of unhappiness in society.
As for Labour .. they’re shit. Always have been and always will be .
Floating voter here btw so no, this is not Boris or Rishi 🤣

I am sorry but saying that it's not throwing dummies out of the pram because reform didn't win - and then saying labour is shit - when labour have had nothing to do with the current state of the uk - kind of devalues your statements

@hamstersarse. Do you have a link to the figures that back up your claim please?

He's a pro Trump, pro Putin danger to all of us.

Someone has tagged Elon in TR's Silenced documentary.

There’s money making in being nasty and controversial, it’s all about the money. It’s a career for some people. He’ll be bankrupt in a few years.

You have a majority of the population who want immigration reduced”

Do you mean illegal immigration reduced?
I think most of the UK understand the need for immigration. It is the refusal to offer a realistic solution to ceasing "the boats".

Well it's like how a good chunk of Mumsnetters idolise JK Rowling...

He was always a nasty piece of work

He's weird.

And Teslas are shite.

Have you misread my post and assumed I agree with him? Seems a bit personal, calling me a ‘useful idiot arse’.

Elon, like all of his ilk, build their treasure on the backs of those they cheat. Hint: That’s US!
Why do people even entertain the possibility that men like him are good for humanity? “I used to respect him.” Why? Because of a bunch of his glittery rockets that fail straight after launch?

He's an awful man and seems to think everyone should hear his opinion without thinking through the consequences of his position.

He's already been sued for wrongfully accusing a man he'd never met for being a paedophile, when all he did was try to save children from a cave; and now embroils himself in matters of a country he knows nothing about.

Not to mention his dubious scraping of American users data via X in swing states to try and influence the election.

He's a monumental grade A twat, whose money has skewed his ego. YANBU

What a terrifying comment.

That article doesn't say that.

This.

I can't stand him. I just wish people would move over to Threads.

We could ban twitter because we have an alternative (Threads).

We should all boycott X. Its a hate mongering, misinformation spreading machine and with him at the helm it’s the worst. That and Tik Tok. Awful.

YABU. He is spot on.

It strikes me as very similar as when Trump lost the election.

He hasn't lost his mind. This is his mind. This is how he always has been.

He just strikes me as someone who doesn’t travel globally enough. He might travel for work but he doesn’t understand Europe at all. He is seeing it through an American lens. The Americans believe that we have a huge issue with unintegrated migrants. I’ve seen tweets that are acting as though swathes of the UK are dangerous. It’s ignorance basically. .
