Billionaires will literally buy governments instead of going to therapy
The semantics are making people come out of woodwork to call the whole thing stupid.
First of all the way I see it, it is true that nobody invents a company, they invent products. But Elon still didn’t even invent the Tesla cars, the SpaceX rockets or the startling satellites. Teams of extremely smart engineers (smarter than him) have invented those for him. He also didn’t even buy Tesla. He placed people who are loyal to him on the board and had them vote him into control of the company while kicking out the original founders.
But he loves to go around bragging about being a rocket scientist and I bet if Neuralink ever produces something viable he will go around claiming to be a brain surgeon as well.
And he absolutely bought X and Trump.
I’m coming out of the woodwork to say I don’t think anyone thought Musk “invented” Trump and it’s a very bad landing to a standard routine. Like “bones’re on the outside” bad landing.
This is stupid meme and just makes “occupy democrats” or just democrats in general look bad because it’s wrong in multiple ways. If you need to play games with word definitions to make it right it’s still wrong. Is this even an original OD creation or something stupid created and OD slapped on it to make OD look dumb? Though I have to admit that I have no idea who OD actually is and it could just be a stupid meme community with no real organization.
The only things Musk bought were Tesla and X, and he contractually negotiated to have himself named a “founder” of Tesla. Nobody is saying he founded X. Nobody. Everybody is saying he fucked up Twitter and turned it into X.
He absolutely did create SpaceX, while they did attempt to join with other companies over variations of what would become Starlink, those joint ventures failed and Musk created Starlink as an original company.
He is good at selecting things that will make him a lot of money, though. And at pretending that he is the genius behind everything.
Regarding your first observation, monitoring trends and needs isn’t really that hard a thing to do. All one needs is patience and a bit of discernment.
As for your second, that credit goes to us. Royalty is royalty only because the serfs treat them as such. I mean, look at him now. He’s a global laughing stock, but Republicans still blow hot air up his ass because he has money and resources they can use.
Musk’s just a rich kid with a massive ego and insecurities. That’s all.

Or to just pay someone to do it for you.
He hasn’t done anything professionally except paying more competent people, taking credit for their work, and self-promoting since he made and sold a Space Invaders clone as a kid.

rAmen!
Focus on the many valid criticisms of Musk instead of weakening the credibility of yourself and your cause by stooping to Trump/Musk half truths tactics.
And how do you call people that can be bought?
Either slaves or prostitutes.
Exactly. Where would one locate Donald on that list?
I kinda want to say both
no wonder starlink was good he bought it
Musk didn’t buy Starlink
trying to rule the world and space. this man must be stopped
