This is what people don't get.

This is just double-win: He gets to once again shit on anybody even marginally less fascist that him (so, well, everybody) for the right-wing mass media, while simultaneously withdrawing from the public eye to have less people look at how he's draining money from the US gov.

Dude could be destitute in a barrel and IMO needs to lose far far more. He deserves every little shit thing that happens to him, and is one of the few people on the planet where if they have a serious roadside accident I might just suddenly remember I panic from seeing blood and hence could not stop to help them and and in my panic did not have enough clear thought to call an ambulance. And I'd do that for murderers. But not for Musk. He's the scum that cannot die soon enough, and cannot die painfully enough.

Yeah. We can assume he gave himself an insane amount of extra cash through his access (like the surprising-wink-wink gov contracts his companies have now), but we don't know truly know how much and he'd be stupid to let anybody know.

He has to get the fuck out now though because obviously him gaining a few more billions cost the american state + public hundreds of billions in long-term damage, if not trillions. It also made swaths of the american government dysfunctional, things like veteran aid etc.

Can confirm, ran the numbers and in just over 3 years Atlanta turned every american gay. That's why for such a long time now, every american is gay, always. It's those body scanner!

Jesus fucking hell. You really can only partially fault Melon Husk or Trumpeteer for this shit, I mean people seem to actively want to get exploited, hard.

It's like always with these right-wingers: The louder they yell, the more you know they're guilty. In particular any time one of them cries "Protect the children", you should just cut their dick off right then and there.

Since you can apply that logic to everything, how can you ever build anything? Because all consequences are dire on a myopic scale, that is, if your partner dies because a single electrician cheaped out with the wiring in your building and got someone to sign off, "It's not as bad as a nuclear disaster" isn't exactly going to console them much.

At some point, you need to accept that making something illegal and trying to prosecute people has to be enough. For most situations. It's not perfect. Sure. But nothing ever is. And no solution to energy is ever going to be perfect, either.
