    I don't care what anyone says, this is the most punchable face in the world at the moment



    I watched his interview with Tucker Carlson.

    He said

    “Well, in the past we could rely upon simple limbic system rewards in order to procreate. But once you have birth control and abortions and what not, now you can still satisfy the limbic instinct but not procreate,”

    That's just word salad of saying "WHITE WOMEN !! START HAVING MORE WHITE KIDS !!"



    Then Musk says

    “So, we haven’t yet evolved to deal with that because it’s all fairly recent in the last 50 years or so. I’m sort of worried that...if we don’t make enough people to at least sustain our numbers, perhaps increase a bit, then civilization is going to crumble.”

    "Our numbers" ? Once again he's talking about white ppl. White numbers are in decline.



    High cancer rates, lowest sperm count in the world, low birth rates, high suicide rates and of course racial mixing.

    Then Musk says

    “It’s the old question of, like, will civilization go out with a bang or a whimper? Well, it’s currently trending to end with a whimper in adult diapers”—[at this point, Carlson interjects to nod and say “yes”]—“which is depressing as hell.”

    This is basically calling for a race war.

    That's all he's saying here.

    Musk ain't talking about Uganda when he's talk about civilization going out with a "whimper" He's talking about majority white countries falling and that white ppl will be genocided.

    And if he can get enough white ppl to really think that ? Violence becomes almost inevitable. You can't fight for legal changes or policy reforms. You have to stop "them"

    Anders Breivik, shot and killed killed 69 white people in Norway in 2011.
    Dylann Roof, shot and killed 9 blk church goes in USA in 2015.
    Brenton Tarrant, shot and killed 51 Muslims at a mosque iNew Zealand, in 2019.
    Patrick Crusius, shot and killed 23 Latino's at an El Paso Walmart that same year — most, if not all, Latino.
    Payton Gendron, shot and killed 10 Black shoppers in a Buffalo supermarket.

    And to be honest ? Dylan Roof and PPeyton Gendron were seen as punks by even white supremacists, not that that cared for him shooting and killing blk ppl, more that they shot and killed mainly old black people.

    These white supremacists who believe that replacement theory REALLY WANTED it to be YOUNG BLACK PEOPLE. The blk men and women who young and virile and go onto to have children.

    That's who they really want.

    That's why if you notice the white supremacists LOVE a Trayvon Martin. A Renesha McBride. A Tamir Rice, A Mike Brown, A Freddie Grey story. They pour thousands into the officers gofundme. They go out of there way to defend them.

    But all those white killers were on that "white ppl are gonna be wiped out" "white ppl are gonna be replaced" ideology

    Once a white person accepts or thinks they are trying to be replaced or wiped out. All bets are off. At that point, discussing or debating issues is irrelevant.

    It’s kill or be killed.

    IBM has suspended advertising on X, formerly known as Twitter, after a report said its ads were placed next to posts praising Adolf Hitler and Nazism.

    The company said it was "completely unacceptable" that its content appeared in such threads on the platform.

    Not the first and certainly will not be the last. Day and age of power brokers showing their true colors however vile and talking sideways trying to weasel thru when called out and bottom line takes a hit.

    In a profanity-laced outburst, Elon Musk has slammed advertisers that have left X, warning they will kill the social media platform.

    At an event in New York, he accused companies that have joined an ad boycott of the site formerly known as Twitter of trying to blackmail him.

    "Go [expletive] yourself," the billionaire said in an interview.

    Some firms have paused advertising on X amid concerns over antisemitism, including a post from Mr Musk himself.

    The Tesla and SpaceX boss apologised on Wednesday for that post, saying it might be the "dumbest" thing he has ever shared online.

    But it was his response to a question about an advertising boycott by companies including Disney, Apple and Comcast that caused a stir at the gathering of leaders from the worlds of business, politics and culture.

    "I don't want them to advertise," Mr Musk said at the New York Times' DealBook Summit.

    "If someone is going to blackmail me with advertising or money go [expletive] yourself.

    "Go. [Expletive]. Yourself. Is that clear? Hey Bob, if you're in the audience, that's how I feel."

    He was apparently referring to Disney chief executive Bob Iger, who spoke at the summit earlier in the day.

    In the room with Mr Musk was Linda Yaccarino, X's chief executive, who has been charged with trying to bring back advertisers to the platform.

    Mr Musk also said that advertisers could kill X.

    "What this advertising boycott is going to do is it's going to kill the company," he said.

    "The whole world will know those advertisers killed the company, and we will document it in great detail," he added.

    Ms Yaccarino has since reposted what she called his "candid interview", adding her perspective on advertising that "X is standing at a unique and amazing intersection of Free Speech and Main Street — and the X community is powerful and is here to welcome you".

    Mr Musk has been on a visit to Israel after he last month appeared to personally back an antisemitic conspiracy theory.

    "I'm sorry for that tweet... it might be literally the worst and dumbest post that I've ever done," he said on Wednesday.

    The boycott isn't just to do with that post, though.

    Many advertisers had already decided to spend their dollars elsewhere.

    In an interview with the BBC in April, Mr Musk said "almost all of them [advertisers] have either come back or they're going to come back".

    Three months later he acknowledged in a post on X that ad revenue had fallen by 50%.

    That was before a report by liberal pressure group Media Matters, which claimed to have found evidence that some adverts had been placed next to Nazi content.

    X says the group's report had "misrepresented the real user experience of X" in order to "undermine freedom of speech and mislead advertisers". X has filed a lawsuit against Media Matters.

    It's hard to see how Mr Musk's comments will bring advertisers running back. The company is heavily reliant on their money.

    It is unclear how much of X's revenue currently comes from ads, because it's now a private company and no longer publishes quarterly reports.

    But before Mr Musk took over the firm, advertising made up about 90% of Twitter revenue.

    Tesla chief executive Elon Musk's record-breaking $56bn (£47bn) pay award will not be reinstated, a judge has ruled.

    The decision in the Delaware court comes after months of legal wrangling and despite it being approved by shareholders and directors in the summer.

    Judge Kathaleen McCormick upheld her previous decision from January, in which she argued that board members were too heavily influenced by Mr Musk.

    Reacting to the ruling, Mr Musk wrote on X, external: "Shareholders should control company votes, not judges."

    Tesla vowed to appeal against the ruling, saying the decision was "wrong".

    "This ruling, if not overturned, means that judges and plaintiffs’ lawyers run Delaware companies rather than their rightful owners – the shareholders," the electric car company said in a post on X.

    Judge McCormick said the pay package would have been the largest ever for the boss of a listed company.

    Tesla failed to prove the pay package, which dates back to 2018, was fair, she said.

    Mr Musk, the boss of X (formerly Twitter) and SpaceX as well as Tesla, is the world's richest person. His current net worth is estimated at around $350bn, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, external.

    He has used his platform to make his views known on a vast array of topics, and his status seems set to climb higher still following Donald Trump's victory in the 2024 US presidential election. The president-elect has picked Mr Musk to lead a newly created Department of Government Efficiency (or Doge - like the dog-related meme).

    Trump has said Doge will help the administration "dismantle Government Bureaucracy, slash excess regulations, cut wasteful expenditures and restructure Federal Agencies".

    A Tesla shareholder vote on the payment passed by 75% in June, but the judge did not agree the pay should be so large despite what she called Tesla's lawyers' "creative" arguments.

    “Even if a stockholder vote could have a ratifying effect, it could not do so here," she wrote in her opinion.

    The judge also ruled the Tesla shareholder who brought the case against the company and Mr Musk should receive $345m in fees but not the $5.6bn in Tesla shares they had asked for.

    Some observers said a ruling in favour of Mr Musk and Tesla would have dealt a blow to conflict of interest laws in Delaware.

    The idea of conflict rules is to protect all investors, not just minority investors, said Charles Elson of the University of Delaware's Weinberg Center for Corporate Governance.

    Mr Elson said Judge McCormick's opinion was well-reasoned.

    "You had a board that wasn't independent, a process that was dominated by the chief executive, and a package that was way out of any sort of reasonable bounds," he said. "It's quite a combo."

    Mr Elson said he expects Tesla might try to reconstitute a similar pay package in Texas where the company moved its legal base earlier this year after the pay ruling.
