Elon Musk is a scrub

[BrightShinyGirl]

He hires people to play his video game accounts and level for him.

probably all h1b's working for pennies on the dollar too.

And other more talented people “leveled up” DonOld’s construction projects, only to have DonOld take the credit.

They’re two POS in a pod.

Turds of a feather.

Could be straight up undocumenteds.

DonOld employed maaaaaany undocumenteds at his properties, so I wouldn’t put it past President Musk to do the same.

PB Deplorables: Ha ha! That's the smart way to master Diablo IV!

Also PB Deplorables: . o O (What's a "diablo"? Is it like Pong?)

That could be a new type of game, as a team manager, somewhat like fantasy football, if I am correct about what fantasy football is.

I think that Elon Musk is a man of great intellect, a brilliant engineer, and in the aggregate, a highly successful businessman. That does not exclude the possibility that he is also an asshole.

His involvement in politics is substantially down to Joe Biden. Early in his term Biden invited GM, Ford, and Stellantis to the White House to discuss emissions and electric vehicles. Tesla/Musk were not invited. After the meet Biden congratulated GM 'as the premier US producer of EV's.' At the time GM had produced about 25 EV's to Tesla's 350,000. Joe then stood on the picket line to support the car workers pay claim and recommended that Tesla should become Unionized. (Joe Biden seems to have been a bit confused about the difference between a Hybrid and an EV) The immediate result was the sacking of some 40,000 workers in the legacy car industry and astronomically high prices for US car buyers.

Trump and and Musk are not two peas in a pod as previously suggested. Musk in my view is much more dangerous to the established order; he is far more intelligent than Trump and has a record of doing what he says he will rather than just bloviating drivel like Trump.

I'm very fortunate to not have lost any of my extended family to Q-anon or MAGA. Sadly, I have lost one nephew to Diablo IV, which Musk claims to be in the top 20 players world-wide.

Let me state unequivocally there is no fucking way in hell he can be in the top 20 of that game without grinding 18+ hours a day. It's simply not possible.

Agree to disagree:

Both President Musk and DonOld have “great” SPECIFIC “intellect”, but they both are mentally stunted in many ways. President Musk HAD a "great" (I have doubts about how great it currently is) TECHNICAL intellect, and DonOld HAD a “great” (I have serious doubts about how great it currently is) CRIMINAL intellect. (Both HAD “great” SPECIFIC “intellect” would be more apt, imho.)

Also:

They’re both equally dangerous in their own way. (The danger President Musk poses is just more easily appreciable to some than the danger DonOld poses.)

They’re both cult leaders.

They’re both nepo-babies who had advantages many do not.

Their personal lives are equally fucked up.

And, yes, they both appropriated (stole?) the credit for "their" greatest accomplishments (Tech companies and building projects, respectively).

Two POS in a pod???

Turds of a feather???



I believe so.

Elon Musk is a salesman, not an engineer. All his engineering ideas are stupid—the hyperloop for example, or the cybertruck. He uses his massive fortune to cosplay as a genius without having the technical chops to back it up. Pretending to be a leet gamer while actually being a scrub is totally on brand for him.

Why anyone would care in the slightest about Elon's gaming is beyond me.

One disagreement: Elon Musk has no technical ability. He sells himself as a tech geek, but he doesn’t have the intellect or training to solve technical problems.

Because paying other people to level up in games is a microcosm of his whole life. He’s an empty suit who sells himself as a technical genius. He’s not even a good tech manager. He’s driven Twitter into a hole by playing around at running it.

And you claim to know this how?

 

[BrightShinyGirl]

And you claim to know this how?

Because real engineers I’ve worked with and respect think Elon Musk a moron. There aren’t any genius technical decisions that you can point to and say “Elon did that”.

That’s why him cheating to the top of a gaming leaderboard is so telling. Musk could pay someone to level his character, but since didn’t put in the hours to learn how to play his leet build, he fell flat on his face when he tried to show it off.

Git good, scrub.

Hiring someone to play games for you is stupid.

So your opinion is simply based upon other people's personal opinions, not Elon's actual education level or accomplishments.

Aside from making buckets of money as an investor, what are Elon Musk’s accomplishments? Why are you stanning for him?

What the nation spends on gaming is stupid. Stupidity sells.

Elon Musk is the Kim Jong-Il of video games.

Kim shot 38 under, including 11 holes-in-one, at the 7,700-yard championship course at Pyongyang in the VERY FIRST golf round of his life, according to North Korean state media.

Musk accused by SEC of cheating Twitter investors out of millions

Cheating appears to be his thing.

Elon Musk cheated Twitter shareholders out of more than $150 million by waiting too long to disclose his growing stake in the company as he prepared a takeover bid
