Stop giving him money. That’s the key to every problem.
But he already had all the money the moment he was born
He had peanuts compared to what he has now
He had enough at birth to fail upwards comfortably. Doesn’t matter that he had less at birth.
Exactly. Start every kid with unlimited physical and mental health care, never wanting for any basic need, traveling the world on cool first-class vacations, attending fancy private schools. See if they don’t all turn into “self starters.”
Exactly. In just a few thousand years, he’ll run out of money as long as he keeps buying yachts every day.
But no, seriously, if we want him to be less relevant it’s pretty simple. Stop going to Twitter (fuck x, i won’t call it that ever) don’t buy tesla, and lobby against SpaceX. At least, until Elon has no control (edit: and financial benefit) over any of those.
Stop using his shitty services and supporting him. This is not a hard thing to grasp.
Good luck with that. People always say they’re going to leave twitter/X. But they come back. Like they’re addicted to it.
Ignore him. The more people forget about him, the more worthless he becomes, in any sense of the word.
Don’t type his name. Don’t seek him out. Don’t write fucking articles about him. Delete him.
If history has taught us anything, it’s to NOT ignore the raging antisemite with a curiously large (and growing) support base…
There’s a difference between keeping a watchful eye on someone, and actively platforming them.
Writing articles, striking up casual conversations, and actively bringing attention to him are all things that bolster his existence.
Just create an account on Mastodon and slowly move over.
Don’t buy a teesla
Or don’t. No one needs social media. Just quit.
You’re using social media right now.
You know, I’ve been always wondering about what exactly is a social media? Is it place where you can post stuff and chat with other people? Isn’t that like a forum? What exactly make it a social media? What if it’s anonymous? Etc? Seems like the definitions changes all the time.
Tbh I have fb, Instagram, etc mainly for networking purposes but I didn’t consider Reddit a social media. And I don’t consider Lemmy a social media either. I think I view them more of “front page of the internet” if you will. Maybe because I’m anonymous here compared to FB, Instagram, etc?
Upvote, but yeah, it’s all social media. You’re socializing with others. This is true even going back to BBS’s, and granted the term was popularized with MySpace and Facebook, but I def consider reddit to be social media. Ditto for lemmy, mastodon, and the fediverse.* The divide for me now is firmly the corpo-verse and the fediverse.
* I guess maybe out there is an instance of whatever that’s read only that doesn’t allow any interaction, but still.
Elon Musk is an antisemite. What can anyone do about it?
Make him take off his pants and sit on a lighted Menorah.
It is almost Hanukkah season…
Don’t even have to wait, candles are lit on Fridays. You don’t need 9 candles for this.

Seems like you do, being on a first name basis with the guy.

I think “killing everyone I don’t agree with” as an answer to fascism might be a bit of an ouroboros
- you can be antisemitic without being a fascist
- what the other comment said
Elect him as the president?
Really loving that 14th amendment right now.

Nationalize his companies and ensure he has a glowy career future of mining lithium for the batteries (until he dies in agony).
Great now what am I supposed to do with this erection?
I use mine as a prybar to help civil engineers open manholes for easy access to my cities infrastructure. I suppose there’s more than one way to filet a feline, however.

Everyone in this argument are fucking morons. How about ya’ll stop killing each other and figure out how to stop climate change
The crux of the issue is that he has supporters. You can claim don’t give him money as a soln for those who don’t like him but there’s still plenty of morons who still worship at his alter.
People will always think celebs are only ever attacked bc of their status so long as they fit into their own in group.
Part of me wonders if it has anything to do with, and how much, bandwagon feminism and not true feminism. Ik that might sound incel-energy but I really don’t think it is. I’m not convinced that mental health or any of the other underlying systemic issues that men face were ever properly solved or supported. If you go with a political stance of fuck the wrong people into the dirt with no remorse because they’re assholes, you kinda just give them more ammo to breed more assholes because you’re the asshole to them.
I think if we all looked at ourselves first, then looked at how others feel, then look at how we behave when knowing both sides, we’re setting up a stronger and stronger form of empathy the more aware we are.
I really don’t think most people would be such pricks had they not grown up in that sort of environment and had proper support for trying to correct inefficient behaviors, communications and so on. Not yo mention other pressures people might face for a wide variety of things like sex preferences, race, class, living situation, home life, addiction, etc. We barely can behave with people of our own caliber and then you wanna throw minorities in the mix? No shot.
Jack off thinking that it’s somehow affecting the richest person on the planet. Spoiler warning, it ain’t.
