He gave the nazi salute. Why would a Democratic senator give two flying fucks about Musk anymore

you don't have to get into a shouting mask with musk but it just looks weird to do this politician speak when the other guy is calling you slurs and whatnot

if you ever listen to Kelly talk about Trump - he uses the exact same line

"trump is such a competent businessman that he should know better than to do this...."

Kind of hard to see his approval going anywhere but up if he straight-up whooped Elon’s ass

keptsimple.bsky.social•1 day ago

much like with trump, you see how easily elon looks like a fool when he's goaded but nonetheless we go through these long periods where everyone is afraid to poke him

The Democratic/Centrist need to be respectful and not seem too mean or aggressive or whatever is really not helpful in times like these.

Oh who the fuck cares. Stop reading fundraising emails.

Not only that, who gives a fuck if the god senator was insulted on social media. Real people are in danger and livelihoods have been lost. That’s what we care about.

Even if he wanted to be even-handed, an easy way to do that would be saying "I love technological progress and exploring space. I thought Elon did too, but it turns out he's more interested in doing racism and corruption"

Jesus. Just insert a picture of an exploding SpaceX rocket and a line of cry-laugh emojis. Boom, job done.

They seem to all think it is Republicans that vote for them

TBH, I question the intellect of any one in STEM who's ever rated the Stumbling Demented Child King of Twitter. It was well known in IT that Musk almost killed Paypal with bad coding and not taking note of specifications to comply with banking regs. /1

Even rudimentary engineers know that the Hyperloop was snake oil, that Tesla was well on the way to an EV, but needed cash, not input, and that SpaceX try to keep him away from real engineers and designers. His only talent was getting good PR people. Alas, he now believes them. /end

Is Mark Kelly under the impression that, under certain circumstances, he’s gotta hand it to Elon Musk?

chrisfumo.bsky.social•23 hours ago

he does this exact same thing with trump every time he mentions him lol

To be fair, Elon *has* accomplished a lot.

Of fraud and destruction, but still…
