Hey Elon, I spoke to your dad, and he said you are an unloveable failure on every conceivable level. For unrelated reasons I am just going to leave this loaded gun with one bullet right here.

We do, it's just that they're a conglomerate of nerds working for space agencies around the world. Elon Musk doesn't really know anything about anything, he's just a talking head. You'd think being formerly worth $400b he could afford some fucking therapy.

Also when I came to the realization that all futurism is garbage. If you have a plan, you’d have something to show me here and now in the present. Anyone can write a paragraph about what the world “Could become.”

It’s just a shell game of “I will solve your problems I just need ungodly levels of power and capital” and then rinse and repeat until everyone forgets your original promises in the first place and just kneel to you out of habit.

probably the first time I encountered his words directly instead of mediated through someone telling me he was going to save the world

I mean one could hope he has the blue marble experience. Many astronauts have said once the saw earth from space it changed their view of the world and man’s place in it. They say there are no borders and it looks so small they recognize the brother and sisterhood of humanity.

Can you, like, like me without me having to change anything, though? I have money, can I use that instead? What if I bought Twitter? You like Twitter, right? You'd be nice to me if I owned Twitter. You'd have to be nice to me. I think I'm going to buy Twitter, yeah.

I know this is a joke but if Elon saw a path towards leftists liking him again he’d probably do it if it was the only option left. However, the right is more than happy to make him feel like a special boy as long as the money is good, much like getting a lap dance from a stripper.
