Elon Musk has said X, formerly known as Twitter, will pay the legal bills of anyone who is treated unfairly by their employer for their activity on his social media platform.

    When I say that he is stupid I way too often get told that he must be super smart just look how rich he got. Like money is a quality of smart people. And on the same note I am treated as a fucking stupid moron cause I am poor, so I can’t know things else I would make money. I hate this world!

      Its a feature of the propaganda, it’s a way to justify to the masses why they gotta work two jobs to eat every day and get to sleep safely. The most honest, hard working, and smartest people I know are just comfortable so long as they watch they spending. It’s because you have to fuck over people to get that amount of wealth.

        It’s also “see, these people that have an outrageously disproportionate share of resources deserve it”. The claim used to be that monarchy were blessed by a deity; now it’s that they are more intelligent and worked harder.

      They forgot that Musk was born on 3rd base, acting like he hit a home run.

        Exactly. While I don’t think he is stupid, the guy was born rich, so it’s hardly a surprise that he has a lot of money.

          Intelligence is one thing, spiraling into mental health issues is another. Musk is not the person he was a decade ago.

          Like Kanye, an incredible artist in the past, and social media/ fame/ luxuries made it lose his mind. Musk has severe issues.

      For these billionaires, money is more of a measure of how many people they’ve fucked over to get there more than anything.

      Have you ever considered that maybe Musk is actually a billion times more smarter than you?

      Most people couldn’t lose $30 billion dollars of net worth in 1 year if they tried. That’s the equivalent of being given total control of KFC, Pizza Hut, and Taco Bell and bankrupting all of them in 365 days with a handful of bad management decisions. Honestly, that takes some skill.
