You’d think that would be a promotion, not a resignation.

He'll be shifted elsewhere within the fascist dictatorship.

Probably became the COF in space X

Headlines on this aren't making it clear. He resigned after a judge limited his access. Racist social media posts are not the reason. That was part of the interview process.

I wonder if Musk has any posts we should know about.

You mean the guy on international TV doing the Nazi salute?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Didn't.you hear? He's autistic. He didn't know any better.*

*don't get me started on the multiple levels of offensive that "defense" hits

Some people are wondering if he was born and raised to be a Nazi. There is speculation that the name "Elon" came from the government body of Mars in the book "Project Mars" written by the nazi Werner von Braun.

I heard there are video of him doing a nazi salute

given that he uses sock puppet accounts, as horrendous as his main is, can you imagine how horrible the shit he must spew on his sock puppets is?

Are we to believe that Musk (or his hiring team) didn't know about these posts on his own platform?

Or are we to believe that they knew about it and hired the little nazi shit, anyway? Because I'll let you guess which one I believe.

"anyway"? you mean "because"

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

Given that he seems to have fired anyone competent at the remains of twitter, potentially not

Gonna go be racist on Twitter so I can work at SpaceX

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

Nah he fucked up by writing shit about Israel

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

This is so obvious it doesn't even feel like it deserves a story.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

You mean his bona fides?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

Shhhhhhhhocking
