So does this mean we're finally acknowledging that putting billionaires and corporations above the law is a problem or too early?
How is being put above the law. The law of Democrat fools.
Judging by the muskrat chump fanboys who responded to you, looks like it's still a bit too early.
@@prooveditt4839 Ah, how unsurprising. A right wing idiot who can't form a single coherent sentence.
@prooveditt4839 democracy is law in liberal democracies. Basically the birth of capitalism and nepo babies like Elon.
Putting them in the law, NSA, CIA, ECT is no better. Look at Bezos or the Bush family.
The CIA makes Epstein's all the time.
I would like to personally thank the robot dancer for the penguin waddle they did on their way off-stage.
Same. I'm glad the camera stayed on the dancer just enough to catch it
Yeah, and a one arm stand with four upward legs kicks.
Them cheeks made me question my heterosexuality for a bit
I really hope it was the same dancer lol
And I would like to personally thank you for falling for that cherry picked early presentation by John that ignores the progress shown recently on the actual bot:

As an autistic, I think Elon Musk provides valuable representation for the community: he proves we can be stupid, egotistical, petty, amoral assholes just like everyone else!
This absolutely. We, too, can be corrupted beyond the point of recognizable humanity by the pure pursuit of power and domination, accelerated by divorce and the subsequent opportunistic alt-right radicalization pipeline!
Yay equality 😉
The bomber jacket with the black T-Shirt, beer belly, thinning, unbrushed hair and cowboy boots is spot on. I swear he walked right out of a south Missouri trailer park. The drugs are really starting to show.
Still better than your loser life.
Looks like some Jewish guy going to a West Hollywood bar
I thought he sounded awfully like he was high. (To be exact: _Sounds like a below average smart teenager on drugs_ )
yea …. a northern Missouri trailer park resident would never do that shit.
Yea don’t show your ignorance too much. It’s funny when your too young to remember when Elon was a hero of the left. You disagree with their crap and they run constant hit pieces that the sheep consume and repeat adnauseam.
"The rest of us still call it twitter" is highly accurate
Haha literally noone says X, seriously.
I mean musk has always been a douche, he was just silly meme man and people thought he was some genius recluse until he got more airtime and everyone realized the guy was a dumb clown who bought PayPal/Tesla/space x after they were successful and didn't actually do shit
I felt like "X" was a previously known but renamed platform when I first heard about it (which was roughly a month ago 🙄) but I didn't know it was Twitter until this video 😜🤣😂
no😅
All I heard was CRY7 cryy n Tears From a 50 year old man wearing glasses ... Saying a MILLONAIRE IS FAILIN .. THAT'S WHAT SUCCESS IS U FAIL UNTIL U SUCCEED... THAT'S WHY HE'S STILL JUST YAPPIN ON A TV SHOW GETTIN PAID 600 A WEEK 🤣🤣😂 .... AND ELON MUSK IS A BILLIONAIRE
ALSO why are you all still using twitter? Don’t be weak and needy.
This is arguably the nicest breakdown of Elon Musk that John Oliver could’ve done. John completely skipped over how Elon proposed the hyper loop, which was suppose to “replace highways”. Originally conveyed as the future of public transport, the project ultimately produce a small underground tunnel that people would take a Tesla Uber through. It was a thinly veiled distraction from a proposed high speed train in California that would have provided both a cheap and environmentally friendly option. I think that example ultimately encompasses what Musk has always been. A guy who is constantly spoke about as an innovator trying to save humanity, but always doing it by the most costly means to society that only benefit a few people and distract from the wider more effective sweeping changes.
I do feel like that warrants another half an hour on its own... This is barely scratching the surface on everything Elon did.
He's also proposing to 'save humanity' by replacing current transit systems with inter-city travel by rocket- a solution that promises exponential increases to the environmental impact of jet travel, and firey death to approximately 1 in 10 passengers.
He also ignored that Elon didn't start Tesla, but merely invested and took over from the original creators.
@@plainText384 While SpaceX might be worse off without his influence; Tesla would almost certainly be better off.
Looks like he had to hold back due to how powerfull musk lawyers are. Its like voldemort if voldemort was a very rich racist muggle.
While wearing a jacket from Ralph Lauren’s ‘Midlife Crisis Collection’ 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Ya a billionaire who has more accomplishments than everyone in this comments section is having a midlife crisis.
@@conspiracybear1564 glazzzzingggg
@@conspiracybear1564 I know it's a core belief of capitalism that if you just get enough money, stuff like sadness, depression and midlife crisis can't ever happen to you.
Of course, it's also supposed to be fair and modern, and yet medieval European workers hab more rights than you average Walmart wage slave.
It is, as always, absolutely stunning how John nails it to the point where we choke on our laughter and realise just how serious things are getting...
“One of the major difficulties Trillian experienced in her relationship with Zaphod was learning to distinguish between him pretending to be stupid just to get people off their guard, pretending to be stupid because he couldn't be bothered to think and wanted someone else to do it for him, pretending to be outrageously stupid to hide the fact that he actually didn’t understand what was going on, and really being genuinely stupid. He was renowned for being amazingly clever and quite clearly was so-but not all the time, which obviously worried him, hence, the act. He preferred people to be puzzled rather than contemptuous.”
― Douglas Adams, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
spot on! RIP Douglas Adams
Douglas Adams. That was a frood who knew where his towel was.
Adams was brilliant and hilarious. All of his stuff is great. Check out "Long Dark Tea Time of the Soul" if you've never read it. It's not dark

Well done on remembering that passage
Oliver: “I’ve never actually revolutionized an industry myself”
Um excuse me? Professional marble racing would disagree.
well, it was mostly created when he sponsored it. He only ensured it would run and that more people were watching
@@TP_RockstarSo. Exactly like Musk then.
@@TP_Rockstar Actually The Marble League had been going for years before John found it.
@@Blutzen So EXACTLY as responsible for it as Musk was for Tesla.
@@Blutzen sorry, poor phrasing (not native English speaker). I meant it was already created when he sponsored it, like you said.
To be fair, Elon Musk changed my life.
Thanks to him I left Twitter.
I've never been happier.
That doesn't mean musk cared you
@@mohann2289 I think you’re missing a word

I like that John Oliver is saying he's never revolutionized despite the fact that the media has a term for the changes he has caused and named it "The John Oliver Effect"
Elon you sneaky devil. You on TH-cam kicking the tires?
Elon burner account
John Oliver should be happy that Elon IS TRYING TO PROTECT FREE SPEECH. and I don't even like the guy.
Recently the Facebook algorithm served me with an article about how the new-old CEO of Dollar General announced the company will be “making big changes”, and the first thought that came to mind was “The John Oliver Effect strikes again”.
Going through the comments of that article, I was very much not the only one to notice lol
@@shaec3405 By allowing racists, holocaust deniers and antisemitic bigots to speak freely their hateful ideas on his platform.
The fact that billionaires can apparently just deny access to safety inspections for their businesses kinda makes it seem like the billionaire has more power than the safety inspectors. And that should definitely be the other way around. They shouldn't need permission. They should be able to get police to accompany them and force their way in if necessary.
But that would require police to be protecting the people in the business instead of the business property so I can see why we don't do that in America.
You know all companies do that? Right? Safety inspectors are not police with a warrant. Have you ever seen an OSHA inspector turned away? I have. It was unsafe for him to be there.
America is a corporatocracy not a democracy 🫠

Can we talk about how John's robot dancer was more talented, had more control, and the costume design was better?
Had a nicer 🍑
We can, even though it is the least significant thing we just saw. He was a much better dancer.
I am not happy to take it out on some anonymous, hopeful dancer, but still ... can we talk about the fact that Elon's robot dancer was doing something that looked a lot like minstrel? Am I wrong?
@@cnj67 There may be similarities and considering Musk has strong roots with apartheid and has shown clear racist elements himself, I would not be surprised if he was promoting the robot as a future replacement for slave labour of a people that he simply does not respect.
And a better anatomy😏
Roman generals coming home from a victorious campaign used to have someone to constantly remind them that in the grand scheme, they are no different than the commoners cheering for them. We need that for billionaires.
"remember that your are mortal"
We don't need billionaires.
When everyone around you depends on you for their livelihood, few of them will tell you what you need to hear, only what you want to hear.
Now the best among us have the total propaganda media and any sleaze who wants to make a buck in media after anything that might make a positive change against the dumbing down of Americans, or controlling the sheep population. CIA and PR firms ensure there are no trusted opinion leaders unless they can be controlled and most key enough blackmailed and have plenty of leverage to destroy if they ever think for themselves or reveal behind the curtain.
@@cristianmunozlevill1265you nailed it.
"Tell it to Earth"?? Is Earth one of his progeny? 😂😂
“I’m probably now more impressed by what he’s doing, but more worried by the fact that he’s the one who’s been doing it.”
This is the perfect description of Elon Musk.
Knowing Elon watched this and got upset really makes the replayability of this video sky rocket.
I admit, that does bring a smile to my face. 😁

Love that John posed that the fight between Zuck and Elon be in a volcano, and Zuck is currently building a supervillain base in one. Perfect.
I think the fight should be on Last Week Tonight
@@telavivjakeThe only way that would happen is if it was the Last Night: This Week 😢
I would be all for the richest men in the world doing a Mortal Kombat-like tournament at a Volcano base site presented on Last Week Tonight, with John Oliver. Better than WrestleMania could ever be.
Zuckerberg is scum but hes no where near as moronic as Musk.
It better be like the ending of The Northman: both are nude and the fight ended with a draw.
Technically, alcohol is not a solution. It is a solvent. It would only be a solution if there was an otherwise solid chemical dissolved in it.
Most alcoholic beverages are solutions though, right?
@LeBonkJordan yes, that is so
Uh, wtf. Is it legal to have these Teslas test drive on city streets?!
It's kind of hilarious that Elon is doing this "you killed Twitter, not me" thing like the whole world is going to be so mad if Twitter is gone.
Or that people will blame advertisers instead of him if anyone actually laments its passing
Hilarious only if you ignore the deranged nature of his claim.
Business genius? Really?
why would the world care?

I'm fairly sure I've heard more people call it _"The Platform Formerly Known as Twitter"_ than I've heard them call it _X_ and that makes me very happy
More people still call it Twitter, to the face of Musk and other executives of the company, than I've ever heard even contemplate calling it X.
Hell Musk himself even referred to it as Twitter in the Aaron Sorkin interview 😂
Only Prince is cool enough to get away with the "formally known as" moniker. That platform is called Shitter.
I just call it by it's true name: Shitter.
i took the liberty of examining twitter and it turns out the only reason it was sitting on its perch was that it was nailed there
its not pining, its passed on. it has ceased to be. it has expired and gone to join its makers
its a stiff, bereft of life - if elon hadnt nailed it to its perch it would be pushing up the daisies
its metabolic processes are now history - its off the twig
its kicked the bucket, shuffled off the mortal coil, run down the curtain and joined the bleeding choir invisible
it is an X-platform
That robot dancer really nailed it
Ah, the US, where the spoiled princes of late stage capitalism are granted the powers to play gods at the expense of society.
As someone deeply impacted by Elon's employment practices, I wish you would have covered how he's informing labor law by ignoring it without consequences.
Why would you just make something up like that? Like what is the point?
yea budy, cry about it after living and enjoying the snowflake life at twitter. Your work didn't matter and you were let go. If you are so skilled make your own business.

While going on a cave trek in Asia a few years ago, my guide happened to be one of the British divers that was coordinating efforts in the Thailand soccer team rescue when the cave they were visiting was flooded. I asked him about Elon's solution at the time (that pod submarine thing), and his response was that it risked all the lives of that soccer team, because the experts told him it wouldn't work right away, but he refused to listen and brought a giant media frenzy to an extremely delicate operation anyway and ended up delaying rescue operations by crucial days.
Pure megalomania
He called the guy a p3do bc now when you google “Elon musk p3do” you don’t get articles about his 12 trips to Epstein island, you get articles about this event … he did it on purpose
@@eily_b yes the commentor who is lying is truly as megalomaniac

Not to mention calling the trainer who kept the boys alive and together a pedo....
I saw that cyber truck on the 210 this week and wondered wth it was. Question answered 😂

I'm loving this so much, that robot segment was gold, pure, refined, unadulterated gold.
Elon didn't start Tesla, he bought it
THIS!!
He bought a majority share when the company was 6 months old, had one salary employee, and no idea what it was going to make. All of the “real founders” left before the first car was ever delivered.
If this is your best criticism of Musk, then he’s doing quite alright.
@@kungfoochicken08 tell me how that isn't buying it? Also, he bought every innovation he takes credit for. The man himself hasn't done a damn thing. He's an idiot with money.
he pretty much just bought a name, tesla is his own thing really
@@kungfoochicken08if you have done 0 hours of research on musk you may actually hold this opinion lmao
I lost all respect, what little I already had, when he falsely accused that man who rescued the Thai boys diving team of being a pedophile simply because he beat Elon musk to rescuing those boys because Elon was too busy stroking his ego talking about his plans for some Futuristic submarine to save them when that wasn’t even necessary as proven by the man who actually saved them. Calling somebody a pedophile just because your ego got bruised is so disgusting.
He couldn't imagine any other reason why anyone would want to save boys from a developing country.
That was particularly fucked up.
Go back and learn what actually happened. Watch the video of the caver (not diver). The diver attacked Elon first. Plus Elon had evidence that this guy, who had moved to the child prostitution capital of the world to retire, was indeed a pedophile, but chose to drop it.
One word: PROJECTION!
Yes omg a human making mistakes 😢
Dunking on Elon by having a better dancing "robot" was just the cherry on the top! 😄
The problem with Elon is he likes to stretch the truth. He's been doing it for years. He's a good salesman and a bit of a con artist all in one.
Elon is a champion of free speech and anti-woke. How is that not a good thing? You don't realize how dangerous woke ideology is. You muppets.

I have to disagree with one thing you said, John. The turning point moment, at least for me, wasn't the pandemic lockdowns. It was in 2018 when he called that rescue diver "pedo" on Twitter. THAT was the moment I knew what musk really was.

@@obinator9065The foundation does a lot of good, but Gates is against making the covid vaccine patent licenseless so that countries outside the west could manufacture it, so he wants to keep the status quo instead of improving the world. Had we had the patents released the later strains of COVID may not have spread as much or been as early and deadly. There were of course a bunch of other rich folk of the same opinion, but they don't have an image of doing good things
The "rescue diver" didn't rescue anyone. He was a dude who commented on the issue on TV because he knew the cave fairly well. It's easy to look up on Wikipedia. The man called Elon names, and Elon responded perhaps a bit harsh. Elon was sued in court and won the case.
@@obinator9065don't forgive Gates, he is partly responsible for the fact that most of the world didn't enoy a patent free Covid vaccine receptie and why copyright as a whole is so trash! He did a whole campaign to clean up his image in the '00's, that man also messed with the educations of thousands screwed it up, all these billionaires think they are good at everything. Just because they did somethings good does not make them good. Dont forgive any of them, they do the good for goodwill!

Here’s another fun Musk-related story from this year. Here in Sweden, Tesla’s management got into a feud with their workers who want the company to enter a collective bargaining agreement, as is fairly standard here; they’ve been requesting it since 2018. Tesla refused, claiming they offer better terms than such an agreement. The workers disagree, and have gone on strike, with support from the union they belong to. Since then, more unions and workers in other Nordic countries have joined the strike too. It’s still ongoing as of this writing, and Musk has not been happy about it
And it’s absolutely marvelous. The fact that the cleaner’s are not cleaning Tesla’s office’s in solidarity with the car builders is just peak socialist and wonderful to see
One of Teslas latest job listings in Sweden is with public policy “significant experience with Nordic legislative and regulatory advocacy.”
He clearly wants to take a hammer to unions in Sweden.
The company also noted that the candidate must have “a proven track record of getting regulatory changes made in the Nordics.”
And now a group of Scandinavian institutional investors have announced that they want Tesla to get to the union negotiating table, or they have to consider getting out of Tesla.
I didn't know that. Americans and their anti union bullshit...
Don't forget how Twitter added a warning page about malicious activity when linking to an article in Sweden's largest daily newspaper when they reported on Tesla's, and other car companies', use of resources gathered by child labour in Madagascar. So much for Elno's riding on his high horses for freedom of speech.

someone who lives in my area has a cybertruck, literally did not understand what it was till now
I saw one recently in eastern PA. So UGLY!
I'm Swedish. More than a month ago Tesla mechanics went on strike because (surprise surprise) Tesla has refused to sign a collective agreement with the union (which is pretty standard in Sweden). Since then every Swedish port has gone on sympathy strikes, refusing to unload Tesla cars meant for the Swedish market. I think even some of our postal services have stopped sending Tesla branded replacement parts. Tesla has tried to circumvent this by going through Norway, Denmark and Finland... so now the ports in all of those three countries have joined in on the strike, and I think Germany is considering it.
I really hope we don't give up until they've agreed to sign the collective agreement, because that man legitimately needs to be humbled. And if this ends with Elon pulling out of Sweden... honestly, I think we're better off for it.
Fight the gazillionaire lobbyists and over lords!
@@jkj420 Just because some companies are exploiting their workers despite agreements (definitely harder to do than when you have one, but I would not say it never happens) doesn't mean Tesla isn't exploiting its workers here. And they are. That's why they decided to go on strike. Your whataboutism is pretty pointless here.
Tesla losing this battle would still affect him to a degree. The entire reason an agreement wasn't reached was because the Swedish branch of the company is not allowed to make those decisions, and their American counterparts said no.
That said, we have Swedish companies that also refuse to sign collective agreements. Spotify and Klarna being the first that come to mind. So far that's been not so great for the people that work there. Especially during a time of massive layoffs.
That's actually pretty disgusting and unions are cancer.
@@vapeurdepisseThe unions are NOT cancer, and however you choose to look at it, companies should adhere to local standards.
@@vapeurdepisse I hope that you like the taste of the jackboot
I've worked on projects for the Tesla Fremont plant. I was not responsible for the energy efficiency documentation, as that was handled by Tesla's in-house engineers. I was fairly certain what we were executing was not energy code compliant, since we were effectively air conditioning a large tent, but I wasn't responsible for that aspect. When the drawing set was released for submission to the city of Fremont, I checked the energy efficiency documentation, and the page was blank. In the corner, a note that basically said no energy efficiency calculations were needed, because this building was already "indirectly" air conditioned by double doors at each end which are propped open and the spaces they lead to are air conditioned. Which is a little bit like saying your garage is air conditioned because you can prop open the door to your house. I was not involved enough with the project beyond that point, but I don' t think they would have put something so brazenly inaccurate there if they didn't think they'd get away with it. By the way, this "tent" was only legal because it was officially a "temporary" structure, despite the contents being very expensive and rigidly anchored equipment.
So the electric car builder was energy efficient enough for you? Laughing at the lack of physics understanding if you think anything about electric cars are energy efficient with today's power grid.
A electric car is heavier and makes 70 percent more carbon just in manufacturing... And only beats a gas car if you assume their batteries will magically be recycled. Which will NEVER happen.
Never.
Scary. People are scary.
Yup. Musk is full of crap. He thought that he would be the next Jobs, only better. And Jobs was a con, but he knew his limitations.
there is no energy code for temporary structures.
@@Anne--Marie You are full of crap, musk is half full of crap.
Elon went up in my estimation when he awarded starlink to ukraine ....and it did a nose dive when he withdrew it and became a twitter overlord holding hands with pootin

Elon Musk is becoming the Bill Mumy character in "It's A Good Life".
Statistics joke: Just because something is a "net positive," doesn't mean that you can all of a sudden ignore the "gross."
NICE
Hi. You're great!
One might argue that you can do math without negative numbers and still have a net positive. Aka, he doesn't have to be such an effing tool.
*clap clap clap*
It depends on the output. If the energy in repairing does not compensate the good, the good prevails. In this case, it is ideological nonsense that the Libs can't stand, which means that there is no negative to a common person, just to the ideological fanatics that think are in possession of the truth.
That is why Musk has been able to say and do as he wanted (it happened to Conservatives last decade, and today they have no problem with gay people in FOX news)
The fact that 50% of the active satellites are owned by SpaceX is a prime example of why you don't let critical infrastructure in the hands of private companies. Because at any moment, they can do whatever they want, even if it flies in the face of U.S. security interests.
They can regulate them(they probably already do), nationalisation creates inefficiencies like you wouldn't imagine, not a good idea. And handing off to the defence establishment, jeez, not a good idea.
LOL.. us security interests? u mean the war in Ukraine? how is that in any way attached to US security? Besides if you are truly worried about US security interests you would be more worried about our own porous border. before whats going on outside of the US..
no one gave it in his hands, he built it..
I feel this point, as with their “Mass to LEO” (excluding Payload Fairings, Geostationary Orbit Mass, etc) l, is a bit disingenuous.
Yes Starlink has a PILE of satellites…but it is a Megaconstellation of smaller short lived satellites. Who has the most School Bus Sized Satellites, or who has the most Remote Sensing Satellites, etc is a more important way to look at things.
@@quincydread5204…because Isolationism is a myth that was proven wrong all the way back at WW2?
And if you think it can work *now* where the world is way more complex and interconnected you are naive as fuck.
You can’t just go “lalalalalala not listening” to world problems and just go after whatever Fox News et al need to use to distract the masses. Not only is there the Famine and Energy Crisis caused by the Invasion (not directly affecting us, but can cause more conflicts elsewhere), but also if we don’t stop them here Russia can *continue* to Bully Neighbors (re: Georgia).
*Also* given Ukraine gave up their Nuclear Weapons in exchange for protection and so on…and if we don’t protect them…that is one hell of a case for Nuclear Proliferation, which *really affects us all*.
Yoooo this 💩 is fkn terrifying 😳! I feel like I'm in a cheesy 70's action/sci-fi movie but without the hero😱.
Thank you John and your phenomenal staff for keeping us informed and STILL makin' us laugh out LOUD at the ridiculousness of it all.

Anyone else ponder that Musk is starting to look like those evil face stretching aliens from the Star Trek movie? 🤔😬
I don’t think a democracy can function when so much power is able to be held by one person.
What? Like Biden with the DOJ, FBI and CIA in his back pocket? I’d vote for Elon any day.
This is why relying on a handful of random ultra-rich individuals to head ambitious society-progressing mega projects is an idiotic idea. They are no better politically than any random, unelected individual off the street. So what would be dumb opinions of an unremarkable individual become massive problematic issues.
Almost like capitalism (private ownership of capital and its accumulation by individuals) is incompatible with democracy (everyone getting an equal say).
democracies are flawed in general. we get to pick between people that want power but shoulnt necessarily be in power. sadly its the best system we got.
Man just outlined the definition of a monarchy while pointing out how the US is a failed experiment
Reminds me of how Elon Musk blamed former Twitter Employees of "Not having Loyalty" after he already fired them. 👨🏿💻
Do people think this makes sense? 😂
@@franklin9400yes have you not seen his dedicated following? He is one of the gods of alpha crypto bro that they worthship.
No need to remind you, because that's not what happened. He was referring to the people who quit after he said people had to be "hardcore" after he took over.

“Only if he can be the one save it”…that’s Gavin Belson!! Word for word!!
Also Lex Luther, which is odd, because I always associated Jeff Bezos more with Lex.
That's also Lex Luthor.
The "Twitter" name and brand is arguably one of the most valuable things Musk got when he bought Twitter the company. Changing the name was indescribably stupid.
that’s ego baby
Yeah, who wants to post on a platform named ‘X’?
Musk is not a smart man.
"Indescribably stupid" perfectly describes Elon.
@@ARichardP Well it's one of the biggest social media platforms for porn which elon doesn't seem to have any problem with😂
I once thought he was an inspiring person, when he started SpaceX. To me, he was what should happen. Science is focus, space exploration is where we as a species should be heading.
But then i realized who he really is. Hes a guy getting a headstart by having rich parents, to be able to do what he wants without any risk, while paying people to be smart for him, doing the work for him and benefit from them and their work.
Hes an investor, not an inventor. He has the money, not the brain but tries to give the impression he has.
Elon did not start Space X.
What scares me about the whole space exploration thing is that most of the time when I hear people rave about it, it'll quickly turn out that hte main motivation is "so we can leave this planet and find one that isn't messed up yet".
Which doesn't even make sense, because the environment of a different planet would be extremely unlikely to fit human beings, never mind the resources and energy moving even a fraction of the human race would take. And even without that, it's still a more expensive version of _"I totally effed up my house to the point where it's not safe to live in, somebody buy me a new one"_ .
@@Julia-lk8jnYou don’t listen to a lot of people then. The closest planet that could naturally host us is 11 light years away, and we’re not even sure if it is capable of hosting us.
The motivation for being interplanetary is as an insurance policy against a global catastrophe: asteroids, lab-leaked viruses, nuclear war, the sun expanding in a billion years and boiling our oceans. We have no choice but to be interplanetary.
Read the guys story. He was upper middle class at best. His father is broke now. He started his first company out of a single room office he was living in with his brother, sold it for $11m, then used that money to start what would become PayPal. He then sold his stake in PayPal and used that money to start SpaceX and buy a majority share of a 6 month old electric car company that had 1 salaried employee.
I’ve always hash tagged #LexLuthor when responding to Musk.
Thanx for your acknowledgment.

The Henry Ford comparison is striking... Howard Hughes too
There is more evil behind Elon and Grimes.
r/enoughmuskspam
r/grimeZs
Striking how? The comparison lacks serious merit, spacex and Tesla have many patents and patentable innovations which they've chosen to instead opensource. John misses that point completely. That aside, notice how the worst dirt on Elon is packaged here, it shows that John is truly about political stunts than truth or green energy or an inspiring future. Truly sad
Props to Tesla for making the broken Glas an Easter egg in the Cybertruck infotainment 😂
Didn't mention that Elon didn't even found Tesla, he just took it over and then put a lot of marketing spin on the story.
He bought a majority share when it was 6 months old, had one employee, and no idea what it was going to make. He was chairman of the board and chief engineer on the first car. All the “real founders” left the company before a single vehicle was shipped.
You’re splitting hairs a bit.
Hello, my name is WestofEarth, and I'm a recovering Musk fanboi. It was the pandemic bullsh*t he was spreading where I hit rock bottom. I've had a sober intellect for 4 years now.
Hi, my name is Funkaddictions, I started recovery after the Hyperloop shenanigans. Been clean ever since. I'm with you, brother. Stay strong.
I wouldn't be too hard on yourself, you're likely not in the minority. Look on the bright side, at least you weren't one of the 30 women he had a kid(s) with!
He's still a brilliant engineer, but he's starting to go the Howard Hughes route...pretty soon he'll be surrounding himself with Mormons after yelling show me all the blueprints for hours.
He definitely had me too, because again: he's a brilliant engineer. His rocket designs and car designs have advanced humanity.
The problem is he's started to love the smell of this own farts too much. And conspiracy theories. Which is weird, because you'd think the richest man in the world would know those conspiracies don't exist, because I'd they DID, he wouldn't be the richest man on the planet. Unless he's in on the conspiracy I guess?
He hasn't created anything what do you mean he's a brilliant engineer lmao. The only patent he has under his own name is the charging mechanism of tesla which makes sure you cannot use any other charger on a tesla than the tesla charger. Its an excuse to get market capture.
He's just spreading conspiracy to distract people from all the real harm he's doing to the world. He's desperately searching for a group that would defend him no matter what and he found that group in paranoid conservatives and nazis. @@mcnamaraky
@@funkaddictionsI can totally see hyperloop being the thing that snapped people out of it lol
