Hang on, this guy the AP seriously took a picture where there is no injury to his ear? What was all the blood then? This one needs independent corroboration.
In addition, a competent plastic surgeon would likely make it look like it had never happened. I hope he goes to jail for the crimes he committed, but do people really expect him to wear an ear diaper the rest of his life?
I was thinking the same thing. But something tells me the people who’d be in charge of banning the photographer, if not Musk himself, wouldn’t know that.
For real! The procedure sounds crazier the longer I read, all the way until removing the tiny bones and replacing them. Hugely impressive that modern medicine allows for working with such delicate and small structures.
Not to be conspiratorial but I watched that video back on super slow speed zoomed in and when he puts his hand up to his ear it comes back with no blood on it.
Maybe I’m missing it. I have head injuries and they bleed a lot very quickly.

Ears, scalp, cuticles… all places that bleed like crazy.
Especially when you’re on blood thinners

Honestly, I thought he would milk it until the election somehow. We can’t be right all the time I guess!
Note that I believe he will milk it forever, but he’s also fairly vain.
He wears orange facepaint every day, so yeah, I did.

When an octopus gets frightened it releases ink to confuse predators. Due to his love of hamburgers Donnie releases catsup.
Do not bring us cephalopods into this.
Well they do say imitation is the best form of flattery.
Not when it’s Elon!
No, that’s just mental illness.
I’m down to flatter ol’ Elonald with some immolation.

Wait they replaced your ear drum with cartilage? Does it work? Can you hear?

Wow sounds intense. Hope things are good and glad you can still hear.

It was probably caused when like eight huge guys shoved him to the ground.
The guy’s nearly 80. Shit gets injured easily when you’re old.
Real bullets were fired for sure, but I don’t think they actually came within a centimetre of preserving democracy. We’re not that unlucky.
If you’d actually watched the videos you’d have seen blood on the way to the ground; something definitely hit his ear.

Could simply be his other ear and photograph is just mirrored. Like screens, you raise your left hand but to your reflection it’s its right hand.
Seems unlikely since it was posted by the guy who took the picture.
His asymmetric haircut would give it away.
I think he wasn’t hit by a bullet but by shrapnel from something else that was hit. It’ probably superficial.
