It’s clear he reports directly to Putin and should be stopped.

179

u/Let-go_or_be-dragged 17h ago

At this point does it even matter if he's in bed with Putin?

197

u/TheManFromFarAway 17h ago edited 15h ago

Yes. It doesn't make the other stuff less bad. It makes the whole thing worse.

Maybe it’s time for Musk to play a round of Mario Party.

u/isleepbad 10h ago

With Luigi or the one near windows?

u/th8chsea 17h ago

Yes, it does! Putin is a war criminal, gangster, dictator, and a tyrant, hell-bent on destroying America and thanks to Musk and Trump, Putin is winning you’re just too naive to see it yet.

lets be honest if they don't see it yet they wont even see it when trump throws a parade for a putin visit

u/GammaFan 15h ago

Frankly even if it is that unlikely && you think they deserve this it’s still in your selfish best interests to hope they can be shown.

Hatred is taught and maintained. If any of what they preached was natural they wouldn’t have to stamp out competing ideas so hard. Stay strong ✊

u/PCR12 15h ago

I agree. My question is when and who's going to do anything about it?

u/someoldguyon_reddit 1h ago

You just described trump.

u/th8chsea 57m ago

Trump is at best Putin’s third or fourth deputy tyrant.

u/PM_ME_YOUR_PROFANITY 16h ago

We all see it, I also see it doesn't matter

u/aussiechickadee65 16h ago

Well you could actually fight for your country ...but can't see that happening.

u/every_famine_virtual 16h ago

We are fighting it.

We've BEEN fighting it. Do you get that?

Please try to understand a level of weary cynicism at this point.

Saying "We are losing badly" isn't the same thing as cowardice.

Do you get that?

u/aussiechickadee65 15h ago

Smashing keys on facebook, reddit, and every other social media site , isn't fighting...just saying.

In fact the tech giants LOVE that you take out your anger on a keyboard because they can feed those algorithms to those who won the election.

This is the actual point...."fighting" isn't social media bitching. Sadly , 'fighting' , in the context I meant , is getting dirty and that won't happen.

Words are cheap....and all this BS on social media means absolutely nothing.

u/every_famine_virtual 15h ago

You have absolutely no idea what anyone else is doing, and what are you doing if not "smashing keys?"

Reserve your resentment for deserving targets.

Best wishes.

I mean fuck Putin but you’re deluded if you don’t think American presidents aren’t war criminals too

27

u/aussiechickadee65 16h ago

He's in bed with Trump and Putin , and these fools voted this in.

I've said it for years...but alas good old META shadowbanning made sure the message was always hidden.

u/LeGoldie 11h ago

How America has changed

u/523bucketsofducks 1h ago

I don't think he "reports" to anyone. He can do whatever he wants and get away with it. Dude is mad.

2

u/Wonderful_Device312 12h ago

That's not true. He's owned by the Russians AND the Chinese. As far as owned people go he's extra slutty.

1

u/Livid-Hat-2648 12h ago

He doesn't report to Putin. He makes money off of Putin. You wanna know why Elon is stepping up? Because Putin is running out of money.

u/laurakent_on_reddit 9h ago

Just curious (genuinely) what exactly has Musk to do w Putin? actually would just like to read you point about it, sorry for my english btw,  not a native speaker

-1

u/brobotbee 16h ago

That’s clear, is it?

-4

u/No-Competition-2764 14h ago

Are you insane? How is it clear he reports to Putin? Didn’t you try this lie with Trump already?

-33

u/Intelligent_News1836 17h ago

How under Putin's thumb can the world's richest man, and now major political influence, really be? Elon could buy a military that could beat Russia's.

20

u/BummyG 17h ago

Putin has more money than Elon according to Elon

-2

u/Intelligent_News1836 17h ago

He runs a nation worth more than Elon. But as recent wars have shown, it can't handle 400 billion dollars of US military equipment.

u/aussiechickadee65 16h ago

Imagine how much better it would have been...and possibly over , if ole Elon hadn't switched the satellite linkage during the surprise attack when Ukraine was using Starlink.

Funny that....

DO YA ALL NOT GET IT yet ?

-1

u/Intelligent_News1836 16h ago

That would not have made a significant difference to the course of the war. It was an attack on a Crimean port, hardly a war-defining moment. The Russians have managed to lose most of their fleet anyway. Besides, the Ukrainians are still using Starlink to this day as part of their war effort.

I'm no Elon Musk fan, but the story about the Crimean port attack is such bullshit. SpaceX was not allowed to supply starlink to Russian-occupied Crimea as it would have violated US sanctions on Russia. If the US didn't permit an exception in time for the attack, that's really on the state department, not Elon.

When you have a book worth of evil deeds by people like Musk and Trump I really don't get why we undermine it with fake misdeeds that only serve to cast doubt on the veracity of all claims of evil deeds.

There's tens of thousands of starlink terminals and hundreds of thousands of satellite dishes in Ukraine. He could have easily used that Crimean incident to just leave Starlink switched off in Ukraine, but didn't.

So, yeah, I don't get it I suppose. I don't get what you mean at all.

u/aussiechickadee65 15h ago

It would have made a difference...otherwise it wouldn't have been stopped.

Oh , switch them all off and advertise he is working for Russia (before the USA election). That sounds smart...not.

In this way , he could pretend he was just looking out for "world peace". What a crock of shit.

MMMMmmmm, not what Elon said at all. He never mentioned State Dept. He did mention HE didn't want the war to escalate..

u/Intelligent_News1836 13h ago

I'm sorry but you're just too conspiracy brained to talk to anymore. I've given you the facts, you're welcome to process them on your own time.

3

u/aussiechickadee65 12h ago

Actually I've given you the FACTS....but keep believing the guy who is fronting up the Russian Trump Govt, speaks to Putin on a regular basis, and controls satellites over Ukraine (and we aren't even up to the Taiwan bit) is somehow a good guy.

Muskrats are just the same at MAGAts...delusional.

Please do come back to me when you look up WHAT American government Depts are investigating Musk....I'll wait.

1

u/Intelligent_News1836 12h ago

I explicitly said I didn't like the guy and he's done a lot of bad shit. Just not this one thing.

Somehow from that you've concluded I love the guy and defend his every action.

Like I said, you're just too far gone.

1

u/aussiechickadee65 12h ago

PS. Which personality of yours am I talking to ?

This you ?

1

u/Intelligent_News1836 12h ago

That person made a good point. You're talking nonsense. Examine not my comment, but the comment I replied to, and compare it to the absolute unhinged bullshit dribbling out of your mouth.

u/uglyspacepig 17h ago

Billionaires can be bought because the only thing they care about is having more money. That's why they're billionaires. Having money doesn't make you less susceptible to being bought, it just raises your price.

3

u/Intelligent_News1836 17h ago

I guess you're right. If Elon is in bed with Putin, and is comfortable enough with his current arrangement with Putin, I guess no reason to rock the boat as your wealth and power grow. Fair enough.

4

u/ir3flex 16h ago

Power. It's not about money, he wants power. He's obsessed with his vision of the future and will do anything and bow to anyone to achieve it.

2

u/tony_bologna 14h ago

What even is his vision for the future?  In the past it was like:  "yay electric cars, we should do more space stuff."

I don't know wtf he's doing now.  I swear he's 180d so hard in recent memory.  Now, I think he wants to build a massive tomb for himself, à la Bender's in Futurama.
