CEO brains go brrrrr

If this starts a spat of CEO killings, most people will just continue sipping their tea.
Republicans are going to start being in favor of gun control laws if the gun violence pendulum starts swinging in that direction. Not sure if that would be a win or not.
I would say they have a reckoning ahead of them either way because I don't think that the 2nd amendment is actually all that compatible with fascism.
Turns out 1 CEO is worth more than all the school children combined.
Shame school kids don't have that same lobbying power.
No they’re going to call for a police state
Gun control is fundamentally a right wing policy. Just because it aligned with *some people's preferred right wing party on a culture war wedge issue doesn't make it right.
Like look at California; the only reason their gun laws are so strict is because they were scared of the Black Panthers doing open carry observation of police. It was a targeted, racist attack on a political movement that was completely bipartisan, because the political class has solidarity with one another against the rest of us.
Like what do *liberals think about abortion bans? Do they reduce the number of abortions? What about drug & alcohol bans? Do they work? We know these things don't actually stop anyone from doing anything, they just make those behaviours more dangerous.
So why do *they think gun bans will actually be effective? Do *they think the cops will actually use it to protect children? They had all the power at Uvalde and they used it to keep parents from saving their kids.
The US is an unprecedentedly violent police state with the largest military, the largest criminal population in history and a fetishistic obsession with guns, of course their children turn to guns to take out their rage. That's what they see modelled all around them.
Edit: removed the words that assume this is the position of the person I'm replying to. I still stand by the points.
I'm certainly not going to throw mine in the harbor over it.
Not like it affects your average person. Probably improves things a little bit if anything.
Something, something....good guy with a gun. I get it now!
I think I'd get out the finest tea I could find to sip
What about if the CEO just spent a quarter billion dollars to support a fascist insurgency?
He's right. It's heroic. 👑
is this the same elon musk that’s been rapidly expanding his security detail? he seems awfully scared to me
Water the tree of liberty with the blood of the tyrant
He only thinks something is based when poor people die.
hmm... Notice that Musk didn't say it's wrong to kill a person. Only CEOs.
I started writing a song about a year ago that started, "have you ever noticed how no one has assassinated Elon Musk?" I need to get off my arse (and write the song, I mean).
RemindMe! 3 months
I'm right there with you homie. I'm working on getting meds rn
It’s not in YOUR social circle.
maybe not. but it is based to kill a person that used to be a merely CEO but now, due to a lack of empathy and grounding to the real world, has become a cincere threat to humanity. EDIT: JUST TO BE CLEAR: i mean elon
This psycho killer has already done more for health care than Biden.
They will no longer limit anestesia during surgeries.

There's like 1 billion firearms in the usa, how may CEOs?
Nobody said You need to stop at US CEOs.
getting firearms across international lines is a little trickier than shooting dumbfuck CEO's, though. Not advocating anything; just commenting on availability and transportation of firearms.
And personally, I'd rather see billionaires sit in prison and watched their assets get nationalized than to see them die, but given the stranglehold money has on justice systems around the world, one of those is a less likely solution than the other...
~400million is the estimate. 1 billion is an etaggeration
It's this real? Like... Even for Elon this is pretty pathetic and disconnected.
i've just been through his xitter page, and i couldn't find it
No, it was so wine else who said this.
Ceo's aren't people, they are the dragon that hoards wealth
Dragonphobia, smh
Wished the tweet was real, that would be one for the history books.
Did he actually post that comment? Can I get a link to his tweet?
As a rule of thumb, any tweet you see posted to a shitposting community is gonna be fake
I wasnt able to find it so either fake or deleted.
Greetings and salutations fellow children, I have come to impart a message from myself, your peer.
(Except that has too many syllables for the real Elon)
Don't forget, the CEO is always the fall guy for the owners
CEOs are almost always part owners. A large part of their massive "compensation" for all the amazing value they add to the company is usually given in the form of stocks.
So fall he shall. Something something humble beginnings, auspicious prospects.
Killing people is never right, but some of these rich bastards have dome so much to make themselves a target that I don't feel bad for them anymore.
Killing people is never right
What is this nonsense? Hitler? Stalin? Mao? Putin? Khan? There is a never ending list of people that should have been killed sooner.
Those are just the obvious example. There are many more people that cause suffering and death of millions and they deserve to be removed from society.
Personally, I handle it like this: Killing people is never right, but it isn't always the best decision to do "the right" thing. The right thing, morally, would have been, to collectively not create a system that has CEOs and billionaires. Just like, the ideal revolution would only depose and take the power from the ruling classes and would have no need for terror. But it's usually impossible to follow a completely ideal situation.
I think the distinction is important, mainly because the enjoyment of revenge for revenge's sake and violence for violence's sake is pretty real and can become very dangerous to the success of revolutionary action. So it is good to remind yourself of the ideal situation (no killing), as to curb any excesses if at all possible. It does not mean you cannot go against those ideals - in the end, ideals are trumped by material reality and its necessities.
Yeah, my comment was worded poorly. What I meant to say was that I hate the general idea of just killing everyone who stands in the way of societal progress. I don't want that to become the default option.
Do you think killing for example Hitler would've changed anything? He just was some random guy who joined an already existing movement (and even without that movement ww2 was inevitable after the peace treaties of Versailles and Saint-Germain). They'd just have picked someone else to lead it
Do you think killing Putin would change anything? He put complete loyalists everywhere, if he's gone his political line will continue.
These are systematical issues, you can't fix them as long as a large majority of those who have power to change anything (in a democracy thankfully that's everyone who's eligible for voting) simply accept it.
Side note: In the USA's recent election ~32% voted for the Republicans and ~32% for the Democrats while over a third just didn't care at all. That's not how you get something to change in a democracy!
Sometimes killing is the only way some people can receive their justified consequences.
Kings had to be reminded of this every once in a while, now the CEOs.
Killing people is never right...
Uvalde P.D. checking in.
Doesn't even care about his own daughter, but one of the Greedy Gang gets murked and suddenly it's morals time.
adding “it’s morals time” to my personal vocal soundboard ty
Can I get a copy of that, I feel like I should set it as a text tone for a friend of mine, it'd make them laugh if they ever heard it
Too bad it isn't a real tweet.
Societies are NEVER known for violently overthrowing elite classes or anything
...
Let them hate so long as they fear.
Attributed to Caligula, but guess what ya rich bastards? It goes both ways, and we outnumber you. By a lot.
is the tweet real, I couldn't find it
Probably not. All he does is retweet garbage with a “yes” or some emojis.
Seems pretty based to me
I don't even know what "based" means, but I'm sure the asshole used it wrong.
He used it right but is wrong (it is based)
I don’t even know what “based” means
based tbh
Based (on facts)
Nowadays, I think it means "agreeable". "I agree with this".
It is a term that changed a lot in such a short time. I remember it was a way to call a drug addict, like crackhead/basehead. Then it changed to call people talking nonsense, like they were on crack.
I imagine, at some point, someone agreed with the crackhead talk and read some comment of the nonsense being called "based".
do the elong next
Image of a guy in an SS uniform being happy that a lifeform which was trying to defend it's home from invasion is afraid.
I don't think that image is saying what you think it's saying.
This is what we did before unions, Elon. I mean, he's not smart, just rich.
Before unions were a thing, if a workforce wanted a raise, it was traditional to say “hey boss, give us a raise, or we’ll burn your fucking factory down”
And now that they've made unions all but illegal, we'll eventually return to that trusted tradition.
Either we settle things collectively and politely, or we settle things not so politely.
Molotov cocktails remain a cheap and effective workforce bargaining tool. 2nd amendment silenced handguns just got added to that tool belt.
True Americans know this.
Eh I think it does us a disservice to call the rich idiots. Sure some are, but strips agency from them for the real damage they do.
Elon is at least smart enough to turn his emerald slave money into billions.
That's not a sign of intelligence, it's just that he had so much money, he could afford to fail a bunch of times, so he could get lucky every once in a while
They're dumb, not handicapped. An idiot is still culpable for the damage they do. We're all just lucky they aren't smart enough to effect their malice.
