Naming his son X is propaganda too. Nobody names their child, their social media company, their rocket company and signs their checks “X” unless it’s part of a marketing campaign. Maybe Elon only knows his X from his elbow.
This is the guy about to demolish the social safety net? The guy with an apparent lack of understanding of life outside of the billionaire class?
This is going to suuuuuuuck...
Sorry Muskrat. We can’t all grow up little rich white kids living in a mansion in South Africa with staff you dehumanize just because of their skin color.
It is the job of our media, in whatever form, to keep us alerted to the dangers this new administration poses. Most of us are too smart to waste time on X. So I appreciate being kept up to date on the “promises” our new king is making to his oligarchy. You should care too. It’s your money too.
Future generations, if they survive, will not look back kindly on anyone who, despite knowing better, sacked and raped this planet for their own financial gain.
Someone needs to find a wrapping paper tube & smack him a couple of times. Then drag his ass over to a computer & make him start researching all these BS claims he makes.
We can thank Reaganomics. A lot of them do suffer from mental illness and are using drugs to self medicate. I worked with the homeless population in my community where people would scream they should get a job. The homeless population deserves a lot more than our country is giving them. Help.
Weren’t they all just bitchin n moanin bout the homeless folks uglying up the mid-market area? EITHER THEY EXIST OR THEY DONT EMEFFER. Also: they were in the mid-market area well before y’all. Assuming they exist.
Note that he offers no backing information other than this is his opinion.
That's really something to hear a spoiled, satanic sociopath who grew up living a premium lifestyle and will never need another dime attacking homeless people and dehumanizing them.
This is only funny because not only are we not trying to solve homelessness. We are also not trying to help those with drug addictions and mental illness. So it's a trifecta of things he couldn't care less about.
It's already gross for wealthy people to have no respect for poor people. But it's downright sick and sociopathic to have outright hatred toward the homeless - to the point where they try to turn society against them and get them on board with Trump's cruel promise to imprison them.
unfortunately, some of the homeless I know could no longer afford their rent, and food. couldnt even find shelters that kept their families together. musk is an idiot totally without empathy or compassion
He’s so fucking close to the point but if you suggest trying to help drug addicts and the mentally ill he’d call you a woke moron and tell you that all their problems would be solved if you lower taxes.
Violence, addiction and mental illness aren't one word. Many factors underline homelessness. And sometimes people become addicted, mentally and even violent when they lose everything through no fault of their own. #elonmusk is very ignorant about human complexity.
Elon is so drunk on power. He thinks he can tweet BS all day, every hour and people will follow along like he's the end all be all. He's nothing but a clown, part of the circus about to squat in the peoples house for 4 years.
We should sanction him for election interference confiscate all his assets and deport him. It might help him to understand homelessness more thoroughly.
He has been to Austin, Texas enough to witness the extensive homeless population that City leaders treat dispicably. The cost of housing in Austin is outrageous. The tents are real. The hunger is real. The panhandling is real.
So for Musk it’s acceptable that people with severe mental illness don’t have homes? It’s only bad to not have a home if you have no other reason to be homeless.
Well Elonzo is on the spectrum and comes from a country that treated native Africans as less than whites. But he did leave South Africa to avoid mandatory military service by using his mother's Canadian citizenship to get a Canadian passport. That made it easier to immigrate to the US.
Anyone with any ounce of humanity would understand that society has let these people down. Even worse that he's a billionaire that could do something to help.
Wow. I wonder if the people who are suffering homelessness will read Leon’s wisdom and be shamed to stop with the “propaganda.” Probably not, since they are homeless and struggling to survive. Need more human decency.
I have to question whether this man is really human. There is no compassion or empathy for human suffering. There is a serious psychological problem with this guy.
He sounds exactly like Shitler. They could basically be twins, except Elon is actually rich. Shitler just pretends to be. His daddy Putin gives him money, so he seems rich.
World’s richest man is also the world’s biggest harbingering threat to the world & America. Elon Musk, like Trump is a racist, cheat & narcissistic fraud, who's been misconstrued by the easily duped media as some stable genius for years. Elon doesn't even have an engineering degree.
This is not random idiocy. They (Trump included) plan to criminalize all homeless, round them up, & ship them to concentration camps. The worst of the crazed evangelical churches WILL HELP THEM DO THAT. This as they strip benefits from seniors to drive them into homelessness. It's all one plan.
I mean, that's the kind of unhoused person he would be, with his ketamine addiction and mental issues (like being a dumbass), so of course he says that's what everyone else in that situation is
A man who never has to worry about being homeless or has ever spoken with the homeless community, makes self reflecting judgement. He’s a drug addict and is trying to raise his violent bro army against those who have nothing.
These guys have basically “poisoned” every single thing they have ever touched and now everyone is like…..hey, let ‘em have a go at the Government! Like what? You all seeing this? 😳
Selling out our country and the natural world. It's not theirs to sell. It's always about money, never about doing good for anyone or anything besides that 1%.
My SIL has severe mental illness and chose to live on the street for many years. She was not, however, a drug addict; She refused the drugs for her schizophrenia, actually.
One emotion I've noticed missing from tech bro types is empathy. Musk, who worded illegally in the US, is one of them.
There are three houses for every American citizen currently alive. Most of them are empty because someone is trying to sell it for a stupid amount of money or is using them to launder money.
We don't need to build more housing. We have plenty. We need to acknowledge shelter as a fundamental right.
• Lack of Affordable Housing
• Income Inequality and Low Wages
• Mental Health and Substance Abuse
• Systemic Racism and Discrimination
• Domestic Violence
• Insufficient Social Safety Nets
• Health Care Costs
• Economic Downturns and Natural Disasters
• Foster Care and Youth Homelessness
• Veterans Without Support
I had to get a bus ticket to a city with better resources in order to escape homelessness. Some places lack any resources for the homeless, like Austin TX. Where Musk currently resides.
Has he driven a Cybertruck through the city? I can drive thru Austin and immediately see members of the homeless population. Maybe Cybertrucks don’t have a large enough windshield (besides being ugly)?
Austin almost became San Diego but city removed homeless camps from under freeway overpasses.
They’ve gone back to hiding in the woods.
I worked for a TX MH group for 17 years. We tried, but no one really takes time or $ to address this sadness. Will only get worse under Trump. 😢
Thank you for your advocacy.
I think trauma/grief would fall under mental health, but specifically that's something that took me out there in the first place. Mental health and addiction kept me out there for years.
Don’t forget catastrophic illness bankrupting once middle class people. Most families are one major illness away from homelessness and usually because their employer health care denied them care
A homeless man my mom got to know is in this situation. He can’t work due to the illness, either. Filed for disability 2 years ago and heard nothing back.
Supposedly a lady with some organization did contact him about getting him housing the last time we talked to him, and he finally got a medical
Grief following the loss of a loved one is also a major cause of homelessness - for 10% of homeless it's because of that. We have almost no help for people when a loved one dies. And COVID killed a lot of people.
In CA, housing vouchers were being given, but only 6% of landlords were accepting them. I talked to a lady in a wheelchair with a bullet in her head who had a voucher. She was just hanging around libraries bc she couldn't get any help. ⬇️
You mean the guy that doesn't seem to have a house and who's been slumming at MaL for the last month? It's like Nick Nolte in Down and Out in Beverly Hills.
It’s so wild how much my hate for him has grown exponentially each day that goes by, it’s like he’s trying to dethrone T as the most hated person in the US.
You don't have to be very smart or informed to know that he is just making shit up with no effort to sound plausible...the level of disdain and condescension towards the American public is astounding. He is a sociopath. They all are.

He should go to a Walmart parking lot.

He has no desire to “save humanity”.
He only wants to colonize Mars to own it.
I'm not against either, but I am opposed to oblivious hypocrites.

Oh wait, I am being told that is not true, he is just a privileged and clueless piece of trash that condones the use of violence against the homeless.

I also did not realize the DOGE is a 45 "thing" , not an official Federal department.
Thank you for the reporting/article

By the way: "He's the greatest engineer in the world." Even his brother has been drinking the Flavor Aid.
Or cold and no longer breathing.
UGH.
What could it cost? 10 million dollars?
I’d never heard or read the word, but I knew my Latin roots & could figure out the context: haughty, arrogant.
I think it was the only time he immediately went silent.

That’s not true for everyone, elno being a case in point, but it solves a lot of problems & is immediate harm reduction.
Don’t like homelessness? Build housing.
We don't need to build more housing. We have plenty. We need to acknowledge shelter as a fundamental right.
The remainder are owned by the people who didn't lose everything when the 2008 housing bubble burst.
Slave wages are engineered.
Exploitation is engineered.
Capitalism is engineered.

But honestly, I appreciate how thorough you were!
People don't make enough to pay the rent and "save".
The lack of empathy makes the other valid issues distractions from the fact that many people are one paycheck away from homelessness.

And I hope all who read this follow my lead.

They need follow up assistance, a list of landlords who will accept them, encouragement / incentive(?) to the landlords to accept them.
Henis Husk can never stop being a feckless cuck
Almost!
It is usually a propaganda word for obscene wealth hoarders with severe narcissism.
