Yeah, being a CEO is clearly not the full-time job that requires marathon-level endurance that the Acela class likes to paint it as.
It’s always been about returning to the indentured servitude and elite wealthy man controlled world that was temporarily interrupted with an experiment in civil rights, workers rights, women’s rights, etc.
They figured out all they had to do was pause progress in the economic sector for all the minority groups that benefited from those movements, and drastically and continually increase the funneling of resources and profits into the hands of the one group that used to control and own it all, making it only a matter of time until we returned to the good old days.
He’s the CEO of five companies. If he really works 100 hours a week like he says (and maybe ketamine does make that possible), that means being a CEO is at best a part-time job.
Yup. 100%. People have been saying for decades that being a CEO (often expanded out to CxOs, too) is like being some kind of super-star athlete and that people in those positions get paid many many many multiples of the average wage of employees they oversee because they are just operating next level and work so fucking hard and so many hours, too.
Virtually every time Elon hits the news we are all reminded in quite stark terms what complete bullshit that narrative was.
Somehow Musk has time to shitpost on Twitter for hours, run the US military and be the CEO of like 5 companies. Guess he saves a lot of time by not spending any time with his children.
Since the LAST Musk task force went so well…
It got a lot of people killed so… relavent experience?
I mean it did, but for the wrong reasons.
What a shit hole country.
Tell me about it. Teaching English in Korea is sounding really good right now.
I’m so fucking tired of living here. Self-centered assholes and ignorance fucking everywhere. We’re way overdue for some hard fucking collapse.
The guy who claimed Stealth was obsolete because of lider + AI.
Yup, he forgot clouds exist and will now be predicting future military tech. I’m sure this will go brilliantly.
Because appointing him head of DOGE was so successful… This is the absolutely dumbest fucking timeline possible.
Thing is DOGE was successful at destroying many government agencies. That was always its intended goal, chaos.
Pete faked benching like 300 pounds or something with some enlisted people. The weights were not normal but like ten pounders made to look like the big ones.
Pete Hegseth, is a pussy bitch. Pass it on.
Wish he’d get shot
He stopped carrying his human shield kid around?
Dont they gave bullets that can go through concrete before hitting their target?
Well I don’t think he was carrying the kid around to stop the bullets per se, more to deter anyone from shooting him in front of his innocent kid. Like he was kinda trying to guilt trip any potential assassins. Elon is not the brightest.
Be the change you want to see in the world.
I’d rather Elon be deported back to South Africa.
I’d rather he murdered on live TV
That’s why I say hey man nice shot. What a good shot man.
Aw man, this guy again!?
Thats exactly what the Bay Area furries community said every time Elon Musk tried to join in back around 2008. True story.
A manchild with an inferior complex. What could go wrong.
Does this mean that the future of warfare is Ketamine benders and “Roman” salutes?
Where have we seen this before…
Ketamine powers
… thus proving he is both equally, and exponentially dumber than himself.
gotdam, thought I bit the onion
Not in this timeline. There is no onion.
If I create an SAT analogy from that quote and the other Matrix quote that inspired the vulture capital firm Bending Spoons, I have a great idea for a company.
We can call it Biting Onions. And instead of using capitalistic principles to enshittify, it will subvert capitalistic principles to block enshittification.
For example:
- Buy distressed patent assets or R&D explicitly to dedicate them to the public domain.
- Counterbid evil investors for tools or platforms to avoid extreme harm from other bidders (e.g., imagine a counterbid for Twitter).
- Seed-fund unions in underleveraged, corporate wage-theft-common industries, requiring only that the new unions to contribute parts of their dues back to the fund to accelerate more seed-funding of unions.
- Venture capital tech startups with explicit caps on executive pay and barriers on anti-human/customer/citizen conduct (e.g., a lowest-to-highest-paid-employee metric or prohibiting SaaS/subscription fee business models baked into contractual funding requirements).
Some of this requires altruism and is likely money-losing (I mean, Twitter was never worth what Musk paid for it, unless you factor in the “value” to an evil sociopath), but like Valve, I think companies that have a set mission and that reach stability would actually have competitive advantages. After all, “suck blood until host dies” is a model that is self-sabotaging in the end.
Welp, guess that’s gonna be bankrupt in 6 weeks or less. What a fucking friendless loser Musk is.
