Pack up your bags, Tesla is woke. You heard it from Elon Musk himself.

Damn, woke Elon. The drugs must have really rotted his brain, or he's just a big fucking lying piece of shit.

[–] Gullible@sh.itjust.works 69 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Alternatively, he fired his social media manager and began expressing his true, unfiltered feelings at some point

Corporations? Lying to get your business? Shocked! Yes, that's the word. Shocked! No other way to describe it. Shocked I say!

........not that shocked actually.

Its worth showing to anyone who really thinks Elon Musk is on their side. Team switched, just for money. He lied to us, and he will lie to you.

[–] lordnikon@lemmy.world 15 points 2 weeks ago

I feel like the whole switch came from him needing to kill the USAID investigation into star link. That and he has always been a piece of shit and the electric car was just goals aligning. Us wanting off fossil fuels and him wanting to make lots of money.

Lying pos. His trans daughter has spoken out about his treatment of her during childhood. She would've been 13-14 at this time.

Spread the word!

Yes, what is your point? I'm not being snarky, I just want to know what you are getting at.

[–] vxx@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I thought you were being sarcastic and riding the "woke mind Virus" claim he loves to spread.

[–] LuxSpark@lemmy.cafe 3 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

I just thought it was funny that 2018 Elon is "woke" and 2025 Elon is a Nazi.

[–] piccolo@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 weeks ago

Is that what it means to 'Go woke. Go broke'?

[–] Doctor_Satan@lemmy.world 62 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

This was before his kid came out as trans, right? That seems to be the flashpoint that broke his brain.

[–] FundMECFSResearch@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

That and the pandemic. He was all okay with pretending to care about leftist issues to get customers until it affected his profits (via lockdown), since then he’s gone full on facist.

4 years in a row... 8 years ago.

[–] pivot_root@lemmy.world 26 points 2 weeks ago

Considering the lengths MAGAs will go to verify facts, you can probably just change the date to 2024 with inspect element and write an opinion piece on Substack, and they'll take it at face value.

What the fuck is 100/100 LGBTQ Quality? Is that some kind of ISO spec?

[–] baguettefish@discuss.tchncs.de 19 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

A measurement from the human rights campaign (hrc.org) it looks like. I assume it's a survey where lgbtq+ employees are kindly encouraged to answer "correctly" or they get mystery fired, but maybe the office jobs at Tesla were genuinely pretty good before elon came out as a nazi, who knows

EDIT: https://www.hrc.org/resources/corporations/tesla-inc. here are the current ratings, 55/100

[–] jaybone@lemmy.world 8 points 2 weeks ago

This makes sense. And if I’m remembering right, I recall there were reports of racial and sexual discrimination and harassment at Tesla plants before Elon started showing his crazy on Twitter and podcasts. So maybe we should have seen this coming.

[–] SoleInvictus@lemmy.blahaj.zone 18 points 2 weeks ago

100 out of their 100 LGBTQ employees were fired for being LGBTQ. A perfect score for fElon.

I remember when I used to get shit on for saying people shouldn’t worship a South African billionaire, cause billionaires are fundamentally all evil people. The musk boys used to downvote and threaten me on Reddit about it. People were simping for him so hard he ended up in iron man.

His first big misstep when people finally started to realize he was insane was when he called that rescue operator a pedophile for disliking his idea on twitter.

By the way remember when he used to say he was personally going to mars? Well Elon, get the fuck going already. Go die in space.

Everyone's brain got scrambled after covid-19

[–] barnaclebutt@lemmy.world 9 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

I think it was the Nazi salute buddy. Also, the weird mailing people your cum thing. Also, also, a million other cringe things from the world's soon to not to be the wealthiest dork.

It's his special form of artificial insemination. True story.

[–] selokichtli@lemmy.ml 7 points 2 weeks ago

As long as they are not too brown. Oh, wait, 2018? No, those were years of pretending, now it's full-on Nazi festivus!
