It’s antisemitism. Christian Zionism is pure antisemitism and always have been.

I’ve managed to wean myself off Illustrator with Inkscape… but hell - GIMP’s interface is so unintuitive that I haven’t managed to do the same about Photoshop.

You’re pushing a very niche view as if it’s universal,

Oh, it used to be far, far more universal than it is now. They spent a lot of propaganda money to make it less universal.

Considering how the rivets seem to be popping off the western propaganda model recently, I’m willing to bet that it might one day be a lot more universal once more.

You might not like that, but that’s reality.

Seriously, what is the point of developing an electric car if you believe cars shouldn’t exist?

Well hallelujah, friends… the right-wingers have finally found a pretext that none of us can beat - they messed things up so badly that none of it can be fixed, and nobody should even try. I don’t know why they just don’t go public with that - they already have one believer right here.

Seriously, what is the point of developing an electric car if you believe cars shouldn’t exist?

You do understand that there are more uses for batteries than cars, right?

How many people still use plastic containers? How many people still drive cars?

Plastic containers did’t fall out of the sky - neither did cars. The people who benefit from their production doesn’t live on Mount Olympus - we can strip them (and the political structures that enables them) of their power and fix these things. It’s not some pipe dream or an ideal - it’s literally the only way to guarantee humanity’s continued survival on this planet.

but they aren’t grounded in reality

The only thing you seem to have “grounded in reality” is that the destruction of literally everything should be “compromised” with. It seems the only thing you are willing to do is compromise - but I guess that’s where the money is, huh?

Wait, is this a bad thing?

No, it’s a Musk thing - he claims him skipping out on doing his bit for the Apartheid-regime (the true reason for his family’s riches) was based on his (alleged) “stance” against the Apartheid-regime - but his overt white supremacism and his enabling of far-right ideologies kind of disproves all of that, doesn’t it?

Do you think you could be a little more careful in your angry smearing of conscientious objectors please?

Perhaps you need to stop smearing conscientious objectors by pretending Phony Stark was one - you might just as well pretend Donald Trump was a conscientious objector if you apply that label to Musk.

It’s out in the open now - Musk is as much a white supremacist as any National Party goon. And, like a lot of rich white kids whose families got rich off the opportunities and impoverished black labor the Apartheid-regime provided them with, Musk felt himself too entitled to actually do the dirty work himself. It was common knowledge here in South Africa at the time - the rich white kids from rich families got to opt out of the war, despite the fact thet they benefited the most from the Apartheid-regime.

It is true that some of those rich white kids actually were against the Apartheid-regime… but Musk wasn’t one of them. His blatant support for white supremacism and his enabling of right-wing ideology proves that beyond a shadow of a doubt.

And how many of those people actually spent time implementing these improvements?

Probably not much… and probably because people at universities are smart enough to understand that electric cars doesn’t fix any problems at all.

in a country where everything has been designed around cars

When you’re in a hole it’s best to stop digging. Continuing to rely on cars because fixing the mess that was caused for the benefit of capitalist parasites is “too expensive” is pure madness.

There were a lot of people on the left who weren’t associated with the MSM

Lol! Such as whom? I think you have a very weird idea of what “left” actually is.

The reason why the hardcore lefties liked him was because they saw him as a necessary evil.

Really? Leftists just up and forgot how capitalism worked because… why, again?

then we’ll back him until he stops being useful.

Leftists understand that capitalism will never fix the problems capitalism has caused. Period. None of this is new - this has been general knowledge amongst leftists for more than a hundred years now.

I wasn’t at that level of analysis at the time yet.

Me neither. They really did a number on us.

When he was spending money on electric cars, solar, renewable energy storage and (relatively) low-cost space travel.

You mean… all those things that came from public institutions (ie, universities) and not parasites like Phony Stark?

It honestly baffles me how many people have forgotten that Musk was heralded as basically being irl Batman

Yes… by a media completely given over to licking the boots of the wealthy. Soooo… no leftists involved at all.

masquenox , to technology in Elon Musk Offers to Also Ruin Wikipedia

The “left” has always been the side of revolutionary upstarts and underdogs.

It’s okay… you can just admit you don’t have the foggiest clue what it is you are talking about.

You can’t fix something if you don’t even admit to it, yes?

It felt like he was on the right side of a big issue

No. No, he never was. Any leftist will tell you that the only solution to the car problem is public transport… not silly attempts to make individual cars more “eco-friendly.” That’s not leftism - that’s what we call “green capitalism.” And leftists have understood that loooong before Phony Stark skipped South Africa to avoid being drafted into the SADF to uphold the white supremacist state he benefited so richly from.

They mean libs.

In other words… right-wingers.

masquenox , to technology in Elon Musk Offers to Also Ruin Wikipedia

Soooo… just the kind of person the left has despised for more than a hundred years now?

masquenox , to technology in Elon Musk Offers to Also Ruin Wikipedia

Incidentally, do you guys remember when this fuckhead was a darling of the left?

And when was this? I cannot remember a time when a celebrity capitalist parasite was a “darling of the left.”

Hold on, I need to check something… yes, this is still Breaking News, not “Right-Wing Garbage Masquerading As News.”
