Imagine being able to completely own Musk in Overwatch just by wearing the Police D.Va skin.

Elon, you don't own Disney..

Elon Musk demands Bob Iger ‘be fired’ after Disney pulled ads from X
Elon Musk wants Bob Iger fired.

The X owner and erratic billionaire conspiracy theorist went on a rampage Thursday against the Disney chief executive, assailing Iger for the Magic Kingdom’s decision to pull advertisements from his imperiled social media platform, and declaring that Iger should be forcibly removed from his job.

“He should be fired immediately,” Musk, who often uses his influential perch to bully critics and others, wrote about Iger on the platform formerly known as Twitter. “Walt Disney is turning in his grave over what Bob has done to his company.”
Looks like CNN is not having it any longer with Musk's whiny ass titty baby tirades.

Musk is an admirer of Henry Ford, as well. He likes the company of vastly rich antisemites.

I read this "from his Imperial social media platform" and that seems about right.

Musk's "anti-woke" ChatGPT competitor is actually extremely woke

This has played out in a number of extremely funny situations online where Grok has answered queries about various social and political issues in ways more closely aligned with progressivism. Grok has said it would vote for Biden over Trump because of his views on social justice, climate change and healthcare. Grok has spoken eloquently about the need for diversity and inclusion in society. And Grok stated explicitly that trans women are women, which led to an absurd exchange where Musk acolyte Ian Miles Cheong tells a user to “train” Grok to say the “right” answer, ultimately leading him to change the input to just…manually tell Grok to say no.

The assumption when Grok launched was that because it was trained in part on Twitter inputs, that the end result would be some racial-slur spewing, right-wing version of ChatGPT. The TruthSocial of AIs, perhaps. But instead to have it launch as a surprisingly thoughtful, progressive AI that is melting the minds of those paying $16 a month to access it is about the funniest outcome we could have seen from this situation.
Of course all of the triggered alt-righters cried loudly at Musk, and Musk assured them that the Grok dev team is "taking immediate action to make Grok more politically neutral", which obvs means they intend to somehow force it to admit that gays, libs, and Jews are evil.

These tweets are from a year ago but it's the first I've seen it.



Also,

After Mr Musk used their son Nevada Alexander’s death to explain his reasoning for keeping Sandy Hook denier Alex Jones off the social media site, Justine Musk swooped in and disputed his claim that their son died in his arms.

Mr Musk reinstated Donald Trump’s Twitter account but has refused to reinstate conspiracy theorist Alex Jones’s account.

And in response to a question from author Sam Harris on whether he would also lift the ban for Mr Jones, the tech billionaire said that the right-wing radio host’s pushing of the Sandy Hook conspiracy theory meant that the ban would remain in place.

“My firstborn child died in my arms,” Mr Musk wrote on Twitter.

Exploding rockets and asshole behavior about Unions behind closed doors is one thing.

In destroying Twitter, he fucked with the publoc sphere. And made a lot of people angry.

Enlightment struck me today that we all might get Musk's real goals wrong, due to him playing around with Twitter.

So: Tesla is his cash cow. He needed one company to earn shit loads of money to fund the companies for his real goals. And these companies, which really do fit well together, are Neuralink, Space X and his Tesla Bot, also the AI research he's doing.

So you might ask now: how does this fit together? Simple: transhumanism. I am sure that Musk wants to bless us all forever with his genius, and in order to so do wants to become immortal. This is also part of why he's making chldren likw crazy.

So how to reach this? AI researcher Hans Moravec and Ray Kurtzweil both believed that in the not so far away future a brain copy or transfer and whole brain emulation will be possible. Some even believed that a hardware change is possible, to just replace the brain with a technical WBE machine. They predicted this to be around in the range of 2030 - 2045.

All makes real sense now and fits very well together: Neuralink is there to create the technic to copy a brain, the AI research to create an whole brain emulation machine, the Tesla Bot will be the future hardware for the artificial brain to steer and SpaceX with its mars colony has only one goal, namely Musk owning and colonising Mars, where he can form his own society. First with humans, later with androids only.

Yup, makes totally sense to me considering we are talking about Musk. He's so narcisstic that he would for sure go down that road, and he's got now the portfolio of companies needed to do this research...

Where you been, buddy? This is standard issue tech bro.

Also the entire thing right now of old powerful men confronting their mortality and panicking to get their pyramids built.

Yeah, well Thiel wants to renew his body, but Musk is the man with the upload his mind into android body and live forever plan to ruin his own planet. And Musk has companies doing research in the required areas of that technology stack, so the full package.

It’s the same template of asshole, and Thiel’s the smarter one.
