All media gave him free uncritical publicity for decades. They inflated his ego, branded him as a genius and built him a legion of fanatics. Now the media see the monster they created, but it is too late to undo :/

PS: I just noticed this is the tech community…why is this posted here?

androogee ,

Space X is a technology company, why wouldn’t it be posted here?

The media doesn’t give a shit. They’re doing trump AGAIN, same exact way they did before.

Profit has killed ethics in so much of journalism.

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

Wytch ,

I know that this is vile and sick and cruel but goddamn, that headline is so fucking batshit stupid I laughed out loud.

What a colossal dipshit.

MrMcGasion ,

No way that’s the real reason, the real reason is taxes. So many California millionaires move to Texas for the low tax, only to realize once they’re there that it’s a shitty state with a barely-functioning power grid. Unfortunately it never seems to click for most of them that the low taxes is a big part of why they don’t have a competent state government.

Freefall ,

I had to pause as my brain processed it, returning only “yep…ok…um, sure…”

BrightCandle ,

He is just a continuous liar, its about taxes it always is.

ByteOnBikes ,

This is hilarious. With the Texas electrical system, there’s going to be days when they cant operate.

My company cancelled opening up a campus there because of that issue!

nomous ,

He could drop a few billion into TX power grid infrastructure and probably buy quite a bit of goodwill.

RidgeDweller ,

Dude could foot the bill to end world hunger. Doubt either would happen anytime soon. The last charitable thing I can remember him doing was offering that dumbass submarine in the Thai cave rescue before calling the actual rescuer a pedo.

Dude we’re like a 50-50 split on whether or not to put Nazis back into power. Collectively, we’re dumb as rocks.

Good, get the fuck out!

danikpapas ,

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.

Aww sowwy Elon ❄️

I think it’s a great idea to move to the #1 ranked Texas! /s

The biggest surprise is that Florida is not in the list

arefx ,

Pilferjinx ,

Is it safe for minorities? PoC and LGBTQ?

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

If SpaceX moves, and it’s worker’s are unwilling/unable to move; does that grant them severance?

I’d take that out.

Crikeste ,

Disney did something similar recently and fucked over some of their employees because they eventually decided against it. Might be able to find your answer there.

wintermute_oregon , (edited )

Severance is not required by law. So no, it doesn’t grant them severance.

todd_bonzalez ,

Severance is required by law.

Where? In America?

I’m afraid not.

wintermute_oregon ,

Sorry missed a word.

There are a million reasons to move out of California but there are a million reasons to not go to Texas.

hessenjunge ,

I think this works better when the numbers are not equal:

There are a thousand reasons to move out of California but there are a million reasons to not go to Texas.

profdc9 ,

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.

Remember when Elon moved Tesla Engineering to Texas, then moved it back to California since he couldn’t get enough people to work in Texas?
