      Can we just fully cancel his ass so we don’t have to hear about him any more. I yearn for the day I no longer hear about Musk or Trump on a daily basis.

        We let people get so fucking rich that everything they do is newsworthy because it actually impacts a ton of people.

        The real problem is that we don’t actually need rich people in the first place.

      This story highlights why news about this is still important. The investors wouldn’t be doing this if they thought a lot of people wouldn’t hear about it and be disgusted.

      I couldn’t care less about whatever else he does, but when he does something awful, spread it as much as you can. We can see very clearly that not all news is good news for him. And one thing I do want to see is him discovering the consequences of his action, for once in his life.

      And he’ll never go away, ever. As long as he has munny he will be a thorn in everyones side, he cannot simply be voted out like a politician sadly

        Or—and please, sit down before you read any further—the media could…stop reporting every single thing he says. [thunder crashes. children scream.]

        Nah he’ll just be forced to sell some shares before a big profit or they’ll arrange a boardroom coup to take away some of his autonomy, CEOs be warned, acting out like too much of a wildcard can appear self destructive and irrational to investors and shareholders alike

        True. I do have a feeling like he’ll get caught doing some fucked up shit and will go to jail but with all the money , its really hard to tell if he’ll ever go to jail as jails are for poor people. Trump is the best example. Hope he rots in jail but I doubt it

      Couldn’t agree more. He’s all over the news all the time, but Lemmy seems especially obsessed with him. I understand, given the demographics here, but I wish he would just go away forever

      The fucking prick really needs to learn to shut the fuck up for a change… And like yesterday.
