The funny thing about Elon going to war, is that Elon will lose. Fantastically so. The ketamine must still be flowing hard.
5 years ago Trump’s base hated his cars. It’s only when Elon hitched his cart to maga that they started to like him. An unsold cyber trucks are in mall parking lots and his stocks globally are tanking.
So, now Tesla’s stock is in the shitter. Liberals hate him and don’t want his cars. And now the GOP will flip on him and also not buy his cars. He’s also now going to wreck his government contracts with SpaceX. Mars will never happen for him. And now Twitter will take an even bigger hit. Those ai protections can be drafted to exclude him and his companies too.
He will absolutely damage trump and split a few people off, but he was in a losing position to begin with.
Even with damning evidence and the persuasive media skills and charisma of a much more talented individual, he is so fucking cooked.
Without that… Well, now there is only one psychopathic narcissist in the leadership role. So that’s nice.
That’s kinda petty though, I mean to hope an asshole stays a full asshole their whole life, rather than at least doing one good thing for the world, just because that might make them feel good… I mean that’s pretty shitty.
I feel like even the worst people should aim to improve. And rooting against that improvement just feels wrong to me.
You mean I should wish only good things for the dude who just took a chainsaw to the US government, helped defund important science including cancer research, removed one of the biggest platforms for liberals, promotes lies & misinformation, prevented real change for public transportation, is actively queerphobic, and did two Nazi salutes on stage?
You’re missing the part where I’m more than happy for anyone else to take that role.
I mean… Mars is cool in principal. its still easier to fix our world than to ever terraform another. It’s a very silly idea. But kinda like the moon. Little steps.
Still. I want Mars to happen. just not this way. So I guess I’m ok with it?
Yeah! I’m happy if someone else decides they need it to happen, but I want it cancelled for Elon specifically. I want him to cry sad, salty tears about it for days on end.

This is the biggest win for me.
I mean, of all things, why is that your biggest win?
Exploring another planet is at least a worthwhile goal.
Because it seems like his life-long dream, or at least an achievement that would cement him in the history books.

For the world? Well, yeah, we’re on the same page.
But you’re also asking me to be nice to Elon who deserves to stub his toes on the same coffee table every day for the rest of his life.
