If you still think Elon’s a genius it’s cuz you’re a fool.
@godpod Verily. This IS the word of God.
@godpod Who's the bigger fool? The fool that leads, or the fool that follows the fool that leads?
@dhj1961 @godpod or the fools that observe the fools that lead or follow instead of foolishly following their own paths?
@Dubmeister @godpod They're only fooling themselves.

@dhj1961 @godpod

Foolhardy jestering in the eyes of the lord....

Hey God why are the rules always in opposition to your own desires if we are made in your image?

@godpod and the reverse is also true
@godpod
He has done great job.. we are fools it is visible ; you are not revealing any secret...

@godpod

*stares*

Have you met your creations?

@godpod I think several authoritarians have paid him or “I-O-U”d him to destroy Twitter in totalis.
@godpod Conspiracy theory? Yes. But I firmly believe it until I see evidence that contradicts it. If it starts you really succeed, that will eradicate my conspiracy theory. I am open to updating my belief. But for right now, yeah he’s a stooge for some authoritarian regimes tired of uprisings.
@godpod he's a one trick pony that knows a fair bit about rockets but is the poster child of why someone with zero interpersonal skills shouldn't be allowed near social media.
@godpod , he's a successful businessman with enough money to hire the geniuses who come up with and build Tesla's stuff. The same thing happened with Steve Jobs, the genius was Steve Wozniak. But fame is sadly not received by Geniuses, but by businessmen. Indicative of a profoundly capitalist system.
@godpod And in desperate need of a Daddy figure
@godpod I always thought he was a bully and does so because of his wealth.
@godpod I think Eoin Musk is a great advert for why utilitarianism is a bad idea.
His belief in long termism is a strong sign that he believes in this "greater good" view of ethics.
In theory this should be a positive thing, but in practice it allows you to justify a lack of personal empathy and other various assorted douchebaggery as unimportant compared to a theoretical future benefit.
@godpod but he's a hero for boosting the fediverse, and freeing people from what had become a toxic hive of selfish people who caused a monopoly.
