The fucker has so many lawsuits. He’s violated so many laws. We saw how long it took for Trump to have suits. I have to believe people are working on them for Musk.
I imagine he has burned through a sizable chunk of his wealth lately. Not enough to make a difference to his personal life, but maybe enough to make him fuck off for a while. It will definitely sink twitter at least. With all the terrible decisions he makes I can’t imagine there are many venture capitalists left who are stupid enough to fund another failed endeavour.
Come on, he’s too rich to actually face any consequences. In US rich people only go to jail if they steal a lot of money from other rich people or if they have dirt on them and have to disappear.
i think the only thing stopping him from joining the supremacists is narcissism.
it’s good to see people facing the consequences of their actions though. it’s taken this long to build a case to prosecute Trump. i will be sure to tune in for the Elon Musk edition of Fuck Around and Find Out.
He’s losing SEC related lawsuits about twice per year and at some point they’re going to take some serious action against him. It won’t be this year, it won’t be next year, but I expect that in ten years time he’ll be pretty screwed.
Sorry but that just sounds like hopium and just reinforces my belief that:
The phrase I know is “The bigger they are, the bigger harder they fall”
But I doubt that will apply to EM, as much as I wish it would. There are plenty of people like him who never see any comeuppance. He has enough money to insulate himself forever.
He has such an outrageous amount of wealth that he’ll never be poor. Not even if all his assets are nationalized. He’s probably squirreled away money in as many holes as possible. He will probably never see any proper justice for any of his actions.
Elon is bonkers, a bully and disconnected from reality. He lives in his own made up world where he thinks he’s perfect and a genius.
Reality keeps breaking into his delusional self-made world.
Eventually he will crack like a carton of eggs dropped from the Burj Khalifa.
Lawsuits will just be one of many realities to shatter his world.
And, he will bring it all on himself, just like trump did.
Elon’s worst enemy on planet Earth is… ELON.
To be Fair and Balanced ®™ to him, popular media really fed into his ego as the “real life Iron Man”, from Tony Stark literally addressing him in a Marvel movie, Star Trek listing him among the great geniuses (lmfao), etc people with personality disorders like definitionally-all-billionaires are going to get caught up in their own farts hype.
Any law with fines as a punishment is a law only the poor have to abide by, at the very least. A lot of laws which are explicitly meant to target wealthy entities like corporations or billionaires have their fines set comically low. Think car manufacturers regularly calculating that it’s cheaper to pay fines than it is to recall thousands of cars with deadly manufacturing faults.

Dude billionaire class runs the country.
Are there any criminal cases against EM or are they just civil?
If they are just civil, they will basically have no effect on him.

“The bigger they are, the bigger the fall”
I just hope that phrase does eventually apply to Elon with how much his business pressence has expanded over the last few years.
In the US it’s, “the bigger they are, the less they can fail”
bless you, you leafed-beverage sipping monstrosity.

Elon is losing civil case all the time. He just doesn’t care

This is the sad reality that I fear will be proven true. But at least discovery might publicly humiliate him in new and interesting ways.

fartshype.Do the rich live by the same rules as us? Trump is a political figure and has more enemies so it’s a bit different.

I definitely have doubts that he will ever face any consequences from the lawsuits. But going into space on a joyride is a pretty risky activity…
