I think it's photoshopped all the way down.
Well yeah, it's commentary. Making fun of the people who drive Teslas but don't like being judged so they put a sticker on the back swearing they bought it before Leon went obviously bad.

It might be true sometimes, but some have been putting them on Cybertrucks and Cybertrucks did not come out until well after Leon's heel-turn, so a lot of people are beginning to see them as insincere.

Cybertrucks are *evidence* of Musk being coocoo in the cabeza.
I still remember when Stephen Colbert point blank asked Elon if he was an evil supervillain, and Musk giggled. Then, later in the same interview, Musk giggled about wanting to nuke Mars. This was on the September 9 2015 Late Show.

That needs to be taken in the context of 28,000 cybertrucks sold ever, compared to 7 million teslas.

I'm horrified that anyone of my sex could still want to merge DNA with this fuck storm. Or even admit to doing it.

A conservative influencer is claiming she secretly gave birth to Elon Musk's thirteenth known child — and somehow, that's not even the most dramatic aspect of this buck wild story.

"Five months ago, I welcomed a new baby into the world," right-wing pundit Ashley St. Clair said in a statement posted to X. "Elon Musk is the father."

In her statement, the 26-year-old — formerly employed by the Babylon Bee, a right-wing satire site — insisted that until now, she hadn't disclosed her child's birth "to protect our child's safety and privacy" and that she was soon to be outed by an undisclosed "tabloid media" source.

I find it bewildering that framing. "Saving taxpayer money." When it's 'cancelling services'.
You have to understand the modern Libertarian Cancer mindset. Everything the government is bad and wasteful. They take away opportunities that could be exploited for profits. If people have the Government to catch them in any sort of safety net, then those people become a little less desperate and a little more happy where they are. They need the people desperate, desperate to climb, desperate to do better, because that desperation, to achive the unachievable, makes them exploitable.

On top of now you have a bunch of new places you can stick a business and middle man siphon money out into Excel spreadsheets.

Because the government only exists to steal their money, through taxes for "lazy" people who think it's ok to just exist and not become wage slaves for eternity. So you tell these people this, and parrot it over and over on your channels that you gobble up "Government Bad." "Taxes are Theft." They may not all see it, but if you tell it to them enough, they will start to think it's true.

This is more effective if you dumb them down as well. Discourage higher learning discourage the free flow of ideas, discourage non conformism. Stay in the box, follow the dream, you too will be a wealthy person some day! We (they) promise!

Can I interest you in my new memecoin $SCAM? You'll be very rich on paper for about ten minutes.

$FRAUD launches next week to the same target market.

I was going to invest in $ZHIT4BRAINZ, but then I got lucky with a scratch ticket.

Lottery should be banned as much as Crypto honestly. But at least the lottery tends to at least go to state coffers instead of rich assholes coffers.

This seems like it could be an "AI" topic, but really it's an "ia" (imbecilic asshole) topic.

Last week, multi-hyphenate billionaire and White House operative Elon Musk made a gigantic $97.4 billion bid to buy the nonprofit that controls OpenAI.
While OpenAI's board has since rejected the offer, the actions of Musk's competing xAI startup highlight a glaring double standard.

Specifically, while Musk has repeatedly excoriated OpenAI and its leadership for refusing to open source its AI models, his own AI company has yet to do the same. As ZDNet points out, the startup has only open sourced its first AI model, dubbed Grok 1, back in March, roughly four months after its initial release.

All subsequent models, including Grok 3, which was released earlier this week, remain closed source, demonstrating Musk's hypocritical stance on the matter.
