Elon Musk and Racism

[raincoatwarmcoatlongcoat]

Inspired by the other long running thread. I keep reading that he tweets and retweets racist comments. Can anyone link any or all of them please? I see tweets over illegal immigration, as opposed to immigration, but not racist?

So instead of opinions please can people post the actual words used or retweeted? Or anything he said in interviews, word for word?

Thanks!

Nope, we don't. I have yet to call someone a paedophile just because they pointed out my "solution" to a problem won't work. Calling someone a paedophile so publicly and refusing to apologise is very different from calling someone an arsehole or what ever.

Well bully for you - I can assure you a great number of people do, all day every day, we don't all do an impact assessment before calling someone something. - also note: I don't give a fuck if he did say it.

Well, that probably says everything I need to know about you.

Have capitalists and media moguls passed you by until this point?

Absolutely. To say that is utterly disgusting.

I don't go around calling people paedophiles and thankfully I don't know anyone who does.

Perhaps Mr Musk should start a little closer to home and raise questions about why Jeffrey Epstein's wealthy and influential pals haven't been investigated in more detail. He obviously knows Ms Maxwell.

Or perhaps he's deflecting. Turning attention from his BFF Trump.

The amount of wtf moments on the thread was depressing! Elon musk is a pos who is spreading disinformation knowingly and trying to rail up other governments as hes paid for his place in american goverment he think he's can do same in other world governments, and its insane to me all these people suggesting he's some how looking out for the regular person , it's laughable the richest man on earth care a jot for the regular person! It's delusion , and what the rights obsession with sexual assault and abuse! I mean trump is literally a rapist and the amount of right wing personalities being accused of sexual assault?! I mean if they really care about abuses maybe start a bit closer to home!!

A great number of people call people paedophiles? All day, every day? What does that even mean?? Where on earth do u live? The amount of just meaningless stuff to try and counter an argument is wild! And just completely made up! The mental gymnastics people feel the need to do is really worrying. Like if you feel the need to just say outlandish stuff that's just wrong then u probably don't have the right way of seeing something. And need to maybe do some self reflection

Edgy 15 year olds trying to be cool do it to their mates. Its a definate phase.
But they usually grow out of it, and people that use those sorts of insults all the same as a stupid insult do so precisely because they see it as a way to cause trouble/upset, not a serious issue. Which is also what is happening with the grooming scandal on twitter right now.

I mentioned none of those names. I'm not convincing anyone of anything, you are free to think what you like.

I merely pointed out that anyone who has concerns about the mass rape of girls across the UK is always painted as 'far right' and it is this 'painting of concerned citizens as far right' that will lead to people voting the right in.

Starmer did it again in parliament yesterday. They never learn. It isn't 'far right' to be concerned about girls being raped and I can't quite work out why you think it is.

I know lots of lovely non-superior, non-arseholes with autism, so that’s a cop-out.

I really dislike this style of argument , my friend who is right wing says it about everything, I care about any rape of girls across the UK as an sane person regardless of their political party!
Another one the right like to say ' anyone wanting the goverment to do anything about imagration is always painted as 'far right' or racist . Its same way. It's really not at all but if u can make these sweeping statements u somehow win an argument, when actually it's false and u don't. People can be concerned about how imagration is being done in a country and not be assumed to be a far right racist. 🙄 people can be appualed at anyone being raped without assuming they are right wing or racist.
Its a way of railing up people and causing them to lean on the right, as they assume the left are already beliving they are racist. It's not because the right wing actually care more. They are fundamentally trying to divide and even if their original reasons for showing things are racist.
Extreme right wing is fundamentally racist that's just a fact. I think people forgot! Or conveniently forget.

Elon Musk is back on the thread. You'd think he'd have better things to do.

@MonkeyVsBunny How exactly has Musk "changed the world three times"??

Made electric cars work.
Reduced the cost to orbit by 95%
Brought freedom of speech, literally.

There are more.

The cool ones know they are cleverer than the rest and can't help but mention it. Sorry. We don't do it to make people feel bad. We just can;t see the point in hiding the truth.

I genuinely call people a nonce all the time as sort of a friendly passing bit of banter.

I think that’s your personality shining through there.

The fact that I don;t care in the slightest what you think about me - is really the take away you need. Must doesn't care either

@MonkeyVsBunny It's all bantz, eh?

Fucking hell.

Made electric cars work? Er no. He bought a company, that's it.

Again, with Space X, he bought a company already doing the work.

With PayPal, he just bought a company.

And if you think threats, lies and aggression are "free speech", yet again, that tells me an awful lot about you.

But he wasn't calling this man out as a "bit of banter". He was actually, very publicly, calling him a paedophile in order to cause distress and distrust.

What a prince....

Friendly passing piece of banter?

I don't take insults like nonce as banter.
