    Remember when Musk said he was working on saving all those people, but then someone else actually did it instead of just trying to show off on Twitter, so Musk baselessly called him a pedophile? You know, like a normal well-adjusted human.

      I hate current Elon behaviour too but I don’t think Musk’s reaction was completely “baseless”, pretty sure the diver guy was the one that started the fight, insulting the submarine tesla’s engineers made.

      Calling him a pedo is a bit too extreme though

        I mean, I can call all Tesla cars stupid, all SpaceX rockets garbage, … doesn’t mean Elon gets to insult me personally all of a sudden, does it?

      I mean saying our politicians are bastards is always right but if he starts calling them pedos he might actually be arrested as thats legitimately illigal without proof.

    Two days before there was news about the giga factory close to Berlin where they produce batteries for tesla. Its incredibly unsafe to work there. Other German car factory have 2/3 less accidents and less severe ones. The article was really alarming. Everyone spoke about it. Then followed the x about the afd. Now everyone speaks about that. Smart move. Please let’s speak about people almost dying in those factories again!

      I agree that people should be talking about the unsafe conditions in his (and any) factories, but lets not pretend that him openly supporting Nazis, even if he is doing it to divert attention, is still him openly supporting Nazis, and that is a serious threat.

      If you’re asking because you don’t know how truly awful and scary AfD is: AfD is truly awful and the prospect of them gaining control is very scary. One of the world’s richest people can make things happen in politics.

      If you’re asking because Musk supporting right wing politics is well known: yeah but see above. AfD is scary shit.
