      I’m not having kids because billionaires have bribed, lobbied, and misinformed this country, and by extension the world, to the brink of ruin

      Because they like two things: money and power.

      If the people are free, they have less of both

    It’s amazing he’s had sex 10 times. I don’t get what’s attractive about him in any form.

      Grimes is pretty unappealing too, so maybe all of his children’s mothers are similarly unappealing.

    Why report on that guy’s opinions as if they matter? He’s rich, not a voting rights expert.

    He’s a fascist, too, which people conveniently ignore because he’s rich and some of it might rub off on them.

      I don’t like Elon Musk, but can you explain what makes him a fascist? I feel like people are really throwing that term around a lot and it’s kind of concerning.

    He’s not a politician and has shown no interest in being one, so why are people talking about this? So tired of seeing his face all over Lemmy/KBin

      When he wants to take away my voting rights because I dont’ have any kids, he’s talking politics. Have you never seen a person able to buy a Congressman who doesn’t like your existence???

    How about we stop caring what that clown has to say?

    I find it especially egregious the people who (rightfully) bash him, but continue to support his products such as Twitter and Tesla. Stop supporting him. Especially on Twitter. Advertisers have fled the platform. Some users have as well. If even 1/2 the people who claim to hate the guy just stopped using Twitter, the entire platform would collapse. Instead you people prop up that site by going to it.

      People whine about how shitty the API has become and how shitty tech support is and how there’s no one to talk to when they run into bugs - yet they keep paying Musk $42,000 a month for that privilege.

          The sun is in a different direction than Mars though. Both require escaping Earth orbit and and entering solar orbit. From there, to get to Mars you need to raise your orbit relative to the Earth. To get to the sun you need to lower your orbit relative to the earth.

            yeah, it is a lot harder to go to the sun compared to mars because you have to zero your whole angular velocity for sun and slightly higher for mars

              Maybe Branson or whoever can provide all the extra rocket power he needs or something.

              Let’s just get him there. Also he can visit Mars first and then adjust trajectory. Or maybe some nice people can help him do that since he’ll be too distracted shitposting on his platform until he’s crispy.

      We definitely shouldn’t care what he says; He’s probably just begging for attention. But he is a US citizen. A quick search shows he became one in 2002.

    Considering that he doesn’t give a shit about his own children, this is typical Musk-Irony ™
