    Imagine wasting your life by worshiping the rich.

    Everybody who has worked with Musk says that he has to be distracted when he goes to Tesla, SpaceX, or whatever, because otherwise, he’ll just cause problems for the adults who are actually working. He has no idea how to run a business, and basically just publicly lies to inflate the value of his businesses, and relies on the fact that there are no consequences for rich people lying.

    Every semi-intelligent person who has worked with Trump says that he’s one of the dumbest people they’ve ever met.

      One key to massive financial success in the United States is being too stupid to worry about the consequences of fraud and having enough money that you can likely avoid those consequences. Trump and Musk are just the luckiest two of a large group of rich idiots.

    They’re both playing 4D chess, but I’m not convinced they aren’t just eating the pieces.

    Ok, so let’s assume they are playing 4D chess. What’s the objective? Creating a distraction before releasing the Epstein files? That’s what all this is for?

    That’s not 4D chess. That’s a clown show with smoke bombs.

            Elon can’t easily buy or short his own stock, there are regulations that require advance notice of any trades. So Elon’s priority is to move the stock higher, since he can’t time the stock.

              1. Elon is not the only market participant
              2. None of these people follow laws
              3. Elon done bad shit sec did nothing he literally said he doesnt respect the sec on twatter

              Lemmy normie: Elon wouldn’t do something that violates SEC regulations 🤡

                He was forced to buy Twitter, and he said as much in an interview:

                Clayton: So then you change your mind again, and decided to buy it – did you do that? Did you do that?

                Musk: Well, I kind of had to.

                Clayton: Right. Did you do that, because you thought that a court would make you do that?

                Musk: Yes.

                Clayton: Right.

                Musk: Yes, that is the reason.

                Clayton: So you were still trying to get out of it. And then you just were advised by lawyers, “Look, you’re going to buy this?”

                Musk: Yes.

                So yeah, I do think he has some respect for the SEC.

      I suppose Elon is feeling cornered.

      The reputation of Tesla has never been lower and he’s at risk of getting kicked out. The future of SpaceX is uncertain under Trump. His role in the government didn’t pan out.

      So I guess his only hope is to get Trump out of office as soon as possible. Maybe the next one will be less hostile against Elon.

      I don’t think he will succeed. The cult of Trump is too strong. Elon is done for.

        This all assumes the data Musk’s goons stole (and the star link antennas he installed to keep stealing it), isn’t plenty to keep musk in control of the government. They literally went there to set up the shadow government that they’d been dreaming and projecting about.

      Tesla dropped about 22% this year but it’s still 69% up from a year ago. It’s a meme stock. A nonsense investment token.
