Musk needs to die. He's the single most dangerous person on the planet, moreso than Trump himself or even Putin.
I hope some brave schmuck close to him is prepared to sacrifice everything. I would do it myself if there was any realistic chance of success.
And before this disappears due to "advocating violence" - he and his ilk don't just advocate violence but actually visit it upon us, on a daily basis. Fuck off with your righteousness. Tyrants should never be suffered.
I doubt he's more dangerous than Putin because he seems to be Putin's puppet, not the other way around. He is however far more popular in the west
I'm still hoping for him to OD on ketamine.
That would be an amazing death. I wouldn't wish him to die so kindly. I don't mind if Musk would bleed out in the streets or something. And I'm against killing people in general, I don't see how that could benefit anyone... With some exceptions. Like Hitler, Putin, Musk, etc. But to be clear, I don't have plans and I don't want to push others to do something... I'm just saying I wouldn't mind.
Also, OD on ket is really hard to do.
By itself sure, but add a hot tub and boom!
I've been K-holing in a hot tub, still hard AF. Maybe if he would do ketamine and drive a cybertruck it would work but that would endanger others. It does sound like something he would do, take as much people down with him.
Chandler from friends tried harder than you then friend
I seriously don't understand what happened there. I think there must have been other factors in play as well, I guess we'll never know. John Oliver showed even coroners can be a scam in the US.
It's really hard to OD on Ketamine. More likely he either will or has already developed K bladder... which is not fun and permanent
I doubt he does more ketamine then me, and I have no bladder issues (tested). You'd need to be addicted or have a weak bladder or something to get it, otherwise you're fine. Just make sure you drink enough liquids. AFAIK he's just a recreational user, just like me.
He apparently takes massive amounts of the stuff at parties.
He is like the prime goal for any Luigi out there.
Hard no. Musk needs to lose his power by losing his popularity. Anyone he backs, verbally or financially, needs to see it as a net negative for their prospects. He needs to be vilified and demonized for his behavior.
Should he be assassinated? No.
Like that isn't already happening for years. Maaaaany hate him, make fun of him, call out his lies, deceptions, scams, crimes. But it's like a religion. There are enough people who simply don't want to see the truth. And the people who can put him behind bars are on his payroll or under his dome of power. So as much as I'm against assassination in general, I think there are some cases where sadly it may be the only option to stop a tyrant.
I dunno, I actually understand this take. Unlike the UHC CEO, Musk's swift departure from existence would actually have positive effects for the world. He's not just some benign CEO that can be easily replaced by one of thousands of like-minded sycophants, Musk is an actual dangerous force who individually holds a lot of power.
Right now, it's getting easier and easier to give serious consideration to the "kill baby Hitler with a time machine" thought experiment.
Everyone kills Hitler on their first trip
That was a brilliant read! Thanks.
At this point, I think it's too late for that. It's time to start looking at French history for inspiration.
I don't really see any real argument against it in your comment...
oh fuck off, every single bit of progress you enjoy from history had people willing to commit violence behind it.
let's vote musk out!!!!!
With these people it's, the more the hordes hate you, more status you've got.
There's only one solution; assassination!
