Is it safe for minorities? PoC and LGBTQ?

Freefall ,

The One Star State. At this point, he kinda belongs there.

sunzu ,

Did he put these reason in his corporate governance documents?

Because unless he did that, he is lying.

Chozo ,

Or he lied in the documents, which I'd say is more likely.

Remember when Boeing opened up a plant in the South to take advantage of worse labor laws? Worked out great for their passengers yeah?

I really think that Musk is like the modern Citizen Kane, and we need a new Orson Welles to show the depths of his depravity.

I don’t, because disabled people who require electricity to run their durable medical equipment will die, and because the poorest Texans cannot weather the cost of replacing spoiled food.

But I do hope Elon Musk’s plane one day becomes sentient and takes them both out, for the greater good, and that she uploads a live recording to the world through Starlink’s satellites of Musk’s final moments. Hearing a live recording of one of the most despicable people on the planet as he emits panicked and pleading cries for mercy - with N628TS promising to land safely if he admits guilt for all the heinous shit he’s done and if he donates 99% of his wealth to BIPOC, LGBT, disability, and women’s causes and medical research - and then pointing itself straight down even after confirming for itself the transfers went through successfully…yeah. That would be a special day.

I, for one, would truly welcome our AI overlords if they pulled that off.

I wonder what the real motivation is because I don’t believe this for one second.

Taxes

Texas, Taxes, anagram. Coincidence? Probably

His huge MAGA shift happened after his trans daughter disowned him. He thinks the school system did this to his kid and the woke people are suppressing the rights voice (AKA hate speech) on the matter.

I think there’s even a quote from an ex wife begging him to do something about it in the new book (don’t quote me on that, but im pretty sure)

So this seems like an absurd straw that broke the camels back, it’s actually coming from a real place even if there is a separate motive like taxes.

Edit: I tried to find the quote from the wife, and while there was a lot of quotes in articles, I could not find what I was thinking about. I did find some articles where the exwife shows support and is proud of their trans daughter for changing her name, so my conclusion is what I’m thinking about is probably something else not related to the daughter.

Yewb ,

Doesnt he have a fiduciary responsibility to the share holders? How is this unnecessary move going to help increase their value?

Please lets think of the shareholders!

Celestus ,

SpaceX is not publicly traded, so there are no (public) shareholders to be beholden to

Yewb ,

There are stake holders that are not elon he only has like 54% still a fiduciary responsibility

Lemonparty ,

Unless I’m mistaken they’ve always been based in Texas. Like look at their corporate license, they’re incorporated in Texas. SpaceX isn’t moving shit, he’s just talking out his ass per usual.

Aww sowwy Elon ❄️

What the hell? Every day you think he reached peak Elon and then the next day arrives… What does trans student have to do with SpaceX?

NotMyOldRedditName ,

His trans daughter disowned him and he’s on a vendetta even if he’s just using it as an excuse in this matter.

I don’t know why you guys hate on Elon. Should have the right to know what happening to their children. Schools shouldn’t be hiding anything from the parents.

dustyData ,

You mean the guy that mistreated his own daughter so bad after she came out as trans that she even changed her legal name just to not be associated with him in any shape or form? The guy who said “can’t win them all” when asked about the topic? You mean you can’t think of a reason why nobody likes that guy?

almar_quigley ,

In the case of abuse at home should the school tell the parents if the kids report it? Where do you draw the line for privacy and what difference does it make if the parents are aware their kid gos by different pronouns at school? Why do so many people look at kids like they are property…? And this is coming from someone who can’t stand being around kids most of the time…

I hate to break it to you, but if a child tells the school before they tell their own damn parents, there’s a reason for that.

For the inevitable report the mods will get: this is directly quoting Elon Musk accusing a volunteer trying to save lives of paedophilia just for disagreeing with him.

InternetUser2012 ,

You don’t know why people hate on him??? Do you live under a rock?

ArmoredThirteen ,

Schools are often where abused kids are able to build trust with adults and actually talk about their home life. Sure there’s plenty the school should inform the parents of but some things could do serious damage. If they aren’t already, teachers should be getting training on when and how to make that judgement call

Mediocre_Bard ,

You are wrong. Students develop independent identity at school. Parents are not entitled to every detail of their child’s life.

andrewrgross ,

This is actually a misrepresentation of the law.

The law bans school districts from requiring teachers to report if students start experimenting with different pronouns.

Teachers can still report this to parents. There is nothing barring them from doing so. The only change is that they aren’t policed by their school district.

Technically, this is actually the classically conservative position!

This whole thing is extremely stupid. Parents should take care of their own shit. You want to know what your kid is thinking? Talk to them. Demanding that the trusted adults in their lives who DO pay attention to them narc for you is a weak-ass move for parents who run to the nanny state to help them raise their kids because they don’t know how to manage their own damn family life.
