What an evil thing to do. What a creep, what a jerk. Like who derives joy from that?
Actually, countless of Americans are deriving joy from that:

(66,976 posts)They don't think they ever do anything wrong.
They think other people are jealous of them, their brilliance, beauty, etc.
Other people have no feelings or concerns, Musk simple does not understand any of it.

If they could do this they might have a chance to be normal people.

(41,760 posts)Because I swore to support and defend the Constitution. Thats what radical leftists do.
Conservatives Lie and shit on the Constitution because they are not smart enough or wise enough to understand the difference.

I wish all radical leftists followed your example. Some are little better than the MAGAs in their failure to love, support, and defend the Constitution. But I don't think it's as many, because we don't have people actively radicalizing our side and fanning the flames of hate.

(48,234 posts)there are tons of better options now from companies who actually know how to make cars and trucks. His own psychotic ego has caused his company's downfall. He needs his buddy Trump to shill for his cars on the White House lawn and give him government contracts for his other companies. Bloodsucking parasite.

South African too correct?

(1,931 posts)He and his parents moved to the US when he was a year old. Years ago, he co-founded PayPal and is now "worth" $16.2 billion. He is the 129th richest person in the world, which goes to show what an outrage it is there are that many people with too much money.
Thiel is a full-blown fascist who is opposed to the very idea of democracy.
He has citizenship in the US and New Zealand.
Looking at photos of him, there is literally no soul there behind the eyes. They are dead eyes.
