    I was taught to have zero tolerance when it comes to Nazism. If you don’t deal with them, they’ll deal with you…

    There is an unmarked ditch/grave for all the nazi soldiers and sympathizers from WWII near where I live. There is always room for more.

    ZERO TOLERANCE, motherfuckers!

    “Mr. Musk, you recently shared a post that mentioned the workers were the ones who killed people and not Hitler without elaboration. Do you believe that Hitler bears no responsibility?”

    Not really relevant to the POS Musk, but: it is interesting how few people were actually involved in murdering such a massive number of victims. The Treblinka death camp by itself, for example, was operated for 18 months by a staff that consisted at any one time of around 25 German officers and soldiers and around 100 local workers. Using only a salvaged diesel engine from a Soviet tank, they murdered approximately 900,000 people. Had German defeated the Soviet Union, they could certainly have exterminated the entire country had they so chosen (though the long-term plan was geared more towards enslavement).

    For a while I was holding on to sanity thinking “he’s an idiot and he’s just drawing attention to himself.” But now, to anyone that was still thinking “maybe he really is that clumsy, maybe he didn’t really mean it”, this is it. If you’re not getting it now you never will. He’s literally, in the literal sense of literally, a Nazi.

        I’ve known a number of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. They’re often quite kind-hearted, loving people. Musk is not. You don’t need to insult them twice by comparing Musk to them, and using hateful terminology while you do it.

        Maybe call Musk an asshole, a nazi, a shitass fucking fleck of rotten cumstain stuck to Trump’s taint instead.

          What do those people have to do with Musk being a retard? Would youcall them retarded? I’m guessing not. Most people don’t use the world that way anymore.

          It’s clearly been repurposed and it’s getting quite silly how upset.

          The definition of the word has nothing do with disabilities:

          To keep delaying; to continue to hinder; to prevent from progress; to render more slow in progress; to impede; to hinder;

          When someone calls Musk a retard they obviously do not mean he is disabled. They are referring to the base definition of the word.

          Now downvote me because you disagree but be aware of the irony in retarding the word from being changed from an insult towards people who are disabled to a word that describes a deep rooted willful ignorance.

            Yes, but it was an official medical diagnosis at one time. And then it got used as an insult, so the medical establishment backed away from it.

            But that’s beside the point. I have known both nice and nasty people with intellectual disabilities, and somehow none of them were Nazis. I believe the proper term for Musk is ‘shithead’.

            He’s definitely a Nazi cunt by Aussie definition. But lacking the warmth and depth, he fails to meet American criteria.

          Idk, I like re-defining that word to be used on people like him. Just call people with actual disabilities “handicapped” or “disabled”

          Edit: whoever downvoted me def calls special needs people “retards”. That’s not cool

        No.

        This sort of argument both minimises his accountability for his actions by blaming factors outside his control, and is incredibly insulting to the millions of people with actual mental disabilities who manage not to be racist assholes.

        Elon is a Nazi, full stop.

        I can’t stand him. Interesting that’s the word you’ve used cos in Britain it’s considered ableist. Can I interest you in the word “wanker” instead? It rolls off the tongue nicely.

    It sounds like a pretty good argument for pushing back against the administration and not following orders.

    I don’t drink, but I’m gonna crack a really nice bottle when Musk suck starts a glock. Will be his greatest lifetime achievement. I hope he video tapes it so I can bust a nut to it.

    Oh of course, if you fire all your public workers, you can’t have a genocide because there’s nobody to carry out your orders.

    Silly fucking me.

    I’m assuming we can look forward to all those cops and ICE agents being fired then.

    These CEOs always claim they can’t do good for workers, because they need to please the shareholders. So now that the CEO of Tesla is sinking the company, where are these supposed all powerful merciless shareholders at? If I was a shareholder of Tesla I’d demand felon’s head for doing all this damn to my investment.

        I’m sure some will arise from this, and like most times they’ll settle instead of taking their target down. Yes it’s expensive and time consuming, as always it’ll be worth it if you take your time and do things the right way.

      I keep screaming this to my friends and family.

      WHERE ARE THE DERIVATIVE LAWSUITS!?

      To be fair, there is a derivative law suit still working and it’s around the excessive bonus they granted musk and then retracted and then re-granted atter reincorporating TESLA in Texas. I’m pretty sure I have this right

      I have read that many who would be able to bring suit are in Musk’s pocket. Like his brother, for example.

      I really would love to see some derivative suits going though.

      It’s a meme stock, not an ‘investment’.

      And now Musk has parlayed it, and his various pyramid scheme-like companies into replacing as much of the US government as he can get away with with his junk.

      The US will suffer.
