he said. “We’ll be gone, and it’ll be gone because of an advertiser boycott.”… eeer, no.

    Yeah I just watched the clip and he seems legitimately unhinged. “Earth will judge them.”

    I mean what the heck, honestly.

            Their goal of getting more money might not be rational, I just meant they act with a kind of logic that’s in accordance with that goal. Burning down the planet is the perfect example, they don’t care if it doesn’t impact them, but they can earn more money and have that as a side effect.

            Musk is saying shit like “the Earth will judge them” when someone asks him how he’s going to make sure his business earns money. This is another level of deranged and disconnected from reality in my view at least.

                A source for billionaires pursuing their goals rationally? I don’t think there’s been a study on that but I’m sure it’d be an interesting one. My point is mainly that Elon seems comparatively unhinged, I’m not trying to establish any kind of objective truth or anything.
