How in the fuck has the board of every company he’s on not removed his ass by now?
Because the board is his family and Rupert Murdoch’s son.
… He has family left that hasn’t thoroughly distanced themselves from him??
Oh yeah. His brother is on the board and is also a shitheel.
Anyone who’s still by his side knows who he is and likes it.
Or is playing him, though at bestt said folks are practically indistinguishable until they start backstabbing.
Have you seen his Hunger Games ass mother?
That explains everything.
We just need to put a posse together and go grab him and deport his ass back to South Africa.
Because if he’s removed, the stock prices of any company he’s involved with immediately snaps to a more realistic price.
This. If you’re a meme stock (Tesla), you have to keep it that way or else everyone is losing their shirts.
I believe he has become a liability. People more and more say they avoid Tesla because of Musk. It is possible Musk’s removal would increase the stock price.
He placed people who are loyal to him on that board a long time ago. He can get away with anything now.
Nothing short of hard financial and/or legal ramifications will stifle this kind of election interference. If it’s not stopped now, it will take root and fester.
Here’s the most important bit I think:
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) advanced a proposal last week to force advertisers to disclose the use of AI in advertisements on television and radio. The use of mimic voices is already banned for use in robocalls.
“Bad actors are already using AI technology in robocalls to mislead consumers and misinform the public. That’s why we want to put in place rules that empower consumers to avoid this junk and make informed decisions,” FCC Chair Jessica Rosenworcel said earlier this month.
The FCC proposal would not apply to ads and video online and on streaming services, including the video shared by Musk.
I don’t think rules can help since the courts will just rule they can’t do that.
Doesn’t the overturning of Chevron do exactly that, making it impossible for the FCC to create rules without explicit laws passed by Congress?
Not necessarily. It depends on the exact wording of laws already on the books. Chevron doesn’t immediately gut all federal organizations of power. Just some of them, some of the time, and the details matter and will be determined in court one at a time.
It will be fun to see how next generation of liberal leaning car buyers will view Tesla brand
We were honestly considering one, but my wife sited the lack of charging stations if we go on extended trips during vacation, and we both think he’s an unmitigated asshole and refuse to buy anything associated with him.
Considering the number of reports that they are garbage, I think we dodged a bullet, lol.
We got a Honda CRV Hybrid and couldn’t be happier. Next one is going to be totally electric but not a Tesla
Ditto. For my next car I went from why not a Tesla to anything but a Tesla.
I considered one for a while before he revealed himself to be a racist, fascist, man-child.
Now I’ll never own one, I’ve been looking into the Hyundai EVs and honestly they seem much more reasonably priced anyway.Their profits dropped by half last quarter.
Haha. Takes fire. Careful Elon, you’re not Iron, man.
Phony Stark
No, my house was on fire and now I’m homeless. I’m willing to bet absolutely nothing happens to him
Is election interference not a crime in the US?
Musk also has the right to free speech. He can say what he wants, as his personal opinion.
It’s using technology to impersonate someone that’s wrong, but I don’t know if our laws have kept up. I don’t think there’s a limit unless the person impersonated sues for slander or something. It is further muddied that public personalities have less protection and parody is legally protected
And using a platform he bought to promote his ideas? Is having too much money free speech?
But the Freezed Peach and Marketplace Of Ideaz you guys!!!
This would be more interesting if he was taking more literal fire.
Can’t wait to use my free speech to build a guillotine.
Of course there’s no spam on Twitter. Elon promised us he’d fix that.
The man has zero dignity.
Meanwhile Musk will face no actual consequences and X won’t lose any users over this.
But rest assured he has definitely had his wrist (lightly) slapped.
Super funny how Trump getting shot at has had no effect whatsoever on these headlines. 😆
Are we talking about the ad he created? Yeah its for hahas… except some of the things in that ad was directly from her mouth.
