When I say recently I mean 3-5 years

2024-08-22 04:45:39 +0000 UTCIt does seem like he took a turn recently to be more transphobic and increasingly white supremacist. The internet has theories like possibly who grimes left him for. But I feel like his ketamine and drug addiction and wealth fuels his hatred. Will be curious to hear your thoughts !

2024-08-22 04:45:21 +0000 UTCI also wonder if one could describe him as a humanitarian? The more I think of Musk, the more narcissistic traits I see in him (I’m not saying that this is the case, it’s just where my mind is at this stage). My issue is whether he does humanitarian acts in a ‘I am this awesome person, everyone look at me!’ or if he genuinely cares? Or, is both true? And is his ability to be humanitarian negatively halted/impacted by the [potential] narcissism? Or - does it in fact make him better at it? Why do people in general (or people with lower narcissistic qualities) do humanitarian work? This question reminds me of a short film about this random dude who tries to save another guy from committing ‘self exit’. It came from care, but the movie ended up questioning the motive for saving this guys life after the self exiting guy revealed to be a jerk. He was not thankful at all, and he had a bad personality. The movie made you question if we save life because we care, because we think humans deserve to live - or because we want to.. idk be acknowledged as being and doing ethically good things? (The movie displays this question better than I could). My current thought is that narcissism makes you go further (e.g why help one person when we can help all people?), take bigger risks, make thinks one would expect to be impossible - but it also makes you bad at judging what’s needed. Don’t try to fight world hunger by giving people the most expensive food. You need to work with the long term, systemic issues to gain a sustainable solution; or, you could potentially create even more damage! Still with that said, this sounds evolutionary positive to have different degrees of narcissism in a society.
Heh
2024-08-21 14:49:30 +0000 UTCYes, I have thoughts - just one at the moment - He's a White Supremacist Nazi.

2024-08-20 15:40:44 +0000 UTCI used to think he's a genius, but now he simply scares me. Looking great with a beard! (not Musk, you)

2024-08-20 14:43:45 +0000 UTCCan't wait for this! Please speak to the recent campaign donation controversy. And why Grimes ever liked him (also wonder what is up with her psychologically tbh). And maybe what his actual climate change impact is. And whether the donation basically wipes it out!

2024-08-20 09:05:31 +0000 UTCIf only humans were not so susceptible to charisma. I despise him. However, I don’t feel the need some do to cancel anyone with even a bit of association with him. Also - love the look. Great picture of you both.

2024-08-19 22:08:02 +0000 UTCI have a great many thoughts on Elon Musk, none of which are suitable for public consumption... 🤢🤮😅

2024-08-19 19:03:09 +0000 UTCHe’s just such a narcissist that there isn’t a single doubt or second thought in his mind about anything that he believes or does, no matter what input he receives from the outside world.

2024-08-19 18:29:30 +0000 UTCI asked an Elon AI if Grimes has the same beliefs as him including eugenics, and it responded “Grimes and I have similar values, including eugenics” 😭😭
