Elon Musk – Dead at 52 – Says There Is No Need for Misinformation Laws — The Shovel

Billionaire Elon Musk, found dead in his home last night, says it is not the role of social media networks to determine what is true or not.
The Tesla and X owner, who is believed to have died from a heroin overdose while watching animal porn, said he would fight any attempts to stop the spread of misinformation on his platform.
Police revealed that Musk, who says it is up to the public to decide what was true or not, had been fighting incest charges at the time of his death.
His funeral is next week.

You fuck. Don’t scare me with a good time.
- I know! I actually squeaked with delight, then felt crushing disappointment, all from one title.
- Fastest I've ever lost a boner.

Had me in the first half
- Shit I saw this a day or three ago and it still got me lol.

Probably the spiciest instance of fighting fire with fire I've ever seen
- I remember seeing one about zuck a few years back. Apparently the chaser said mark zuck was a child molester though the actual web page has since been taken down.

Aw c'mon don't tease us like that!
- Well I, as a member of the public, choose to believe him being dead as true, as he wished in life.
  
  sheds a single tear*
  He died doing what he loved. Hoarding a measure of wealth that the human brain isn't capable of comprehending, while the rest of us are left budgeting for god damned eggs.

Millionaire and soon-to-be indicted Elon Musk, found dead in his home last night, says it is not the role of social media networks to determine what is true or not.
That ought to get his attention

He's only 52?
He looks like someone 15 years older whose had too much plastic surgery
- It's the drugs.
  
  Drugs don't make people looks like low quality wax models...
  It's the plastic surgery
- He's actually 74, I read it on the Xitter so it must be true.
- 52 is the average age of his body parts.
- That's the look he's going for

They really had us in the beginning, and the middle, they actually had us the whole time, and I take every word as true.

Elon Musk, the well-known pedophile? That Elon Musk?
- The guy who implied or outright said the only reason for a man to visit Thailand is to have sex with children after recently having visited Thailand himself?
  
  It's been 5 hours and I don't see a denial here, it must be true!

Pretty sure we can all conjecture he's a pedophile now.
- I've assumed elon was a pedo ever since he accused that one diver of being one.
  
  Every accusation is an admission.
- Many people are saying it. More and more.
  
  Say it with tuckers diarrhea face but pose it as a question.
- You don't get incest charges for no reason whatsoever
  
  Is incest an actual crime?

elon musk, one of the world's most outspoken furries, dead today after his head fell off immediately after he set the world record for the amount of penises simultaneously inserted into a human body. Per his will, his body will be hollowed out and used as a urinal for truckers with active, untreated STDs. He is survived by several people that didn't love him for a single day of his worthless life.
- Hey, you can... you can respectfully keep furries out of this one. Just saying. We've got nothing to do with that mess. This time at least.
  
  Yeah - get it right, people! The tech furries work under Elon!

I heard a completely different story. I heard he was alive but in a bid to own the libs had castrated himself. No need for misinformation laws when rumors abound.

Okay, this is genius, and I thought it was legit for a minute.
- If you believe in it, it's true!

The billionaire grifter well known for lying and making money off of his lies, is against misinformation laws? Wow I am so surprised. He always struck me as a stand-up, honourable kind of chap.

Okay guys be honest for a second with me here do you think his hair transplant was like the single most effective thing he's done for his own public image? I think it might be. If you look at the before and after pictures that motherfucker is super bald at a young age, but just deluded enough to not have shaven his head. If you look at him now and sort of at his height in public good will with teslas and what have you, bang, full head of hair. Did it give him more confidence to spiral from a minor silicon valley douche into a full turbodouche? Or did it just masquerade the true baldness of the soul with which he is plagued? I dunno. Nobody holds any good sentiments about jeff bezos, and that man looks like a shorter lex luthor. I mean everyone also things zuck is a lizard man or a robot or whatever, and he has hair I guess, but I dunno.
Am I reading too much into his former baldness?
- All I know is that I wish I could afford as good of a hair transplant as he or Gordon Ramsay have. I guess I could afford one once, but if it keeps falling out then it's just going to look even worse after the transplant. I think you need the money to get follow-up transplants for the rest of your life, and I'd rather spend that money on life experiences, hobbies, or retirement.
  
  I mean there's always potentially rogaine and a bunch of other products that are supposed to help prevent hair loss, but I don't really know whether or not they work very well, or would work for a hair transplant.
  I dunno, I do think wigs are kind of underrated. I've seen cosplayers with all kinds of crazy styled anime wigs. Most middle aged white guys in a mid life kind of aesthetic grapple might either shave their head bald and try to grow out a really long beard, and wear like, reflective oakleys or pit vipers or whatever, and then the richer ones can just afford to get a hair transplant in turkey or mexico or whatever. Me personally, I think that the sick goku wig is a better approach.
  
  I don't know why men try. An older man with a full head of hair is a bit creepy.

Misinfo! How can he argue against misinformation laws when he actually died five years ago and has been played by a stunt double this whole time?
- Just a regular double will do. I've never seen musk do anything physical to require a stunt double.
  
  More like a stunted double.
- The before and after photos are undeniable.

I imagine death came fairly quickly and without a lot of suffering.
That’s a shame.

Ya know, there was a thread on here (here being Lemmy, not this particular community) a week or so ago mocking someone trying to manifest a free car for themself. Now I want manifesting to be a thing, let's turn this into reality.
- You have to write your will on a piece of paper and then ejaculate onto the piece of paper.
  I think you then burn the paper.

Oh no! How will the planet survive? How will we get to our miserable existence on Mars after we fuck up the atmosphere with thousands of rocket launches?
- Oh dear

I am pretty sure he's 62
- You mean he's been dead for a decade now?! Makes total sense. When's the last time anyone actually saw him in public? /s
  
  At the super bowl, Rupert Murdoch was weekend at bernieing his ass around

I'd believe that he could find a way to keep being an annoying prick even after his death. Though Elon-bot would probably be less socially awkward.
- He probably has a decade worth of Twitter posts queued up and ready to go.

Fuck you, OP 😂

Mods, fill OP's body with the wrong blood type

This is an updated version of the article: Mark Zuckerberg – Dead at 36 – Says Social Media Sites Should Not Fact Check Posts
🤣

Damn, if only it were real ;-;

Honestly, apart from the incest bit, I really wish this was true…
- The incest bit is close, though it was father and an adopted daughter.
  
  That's not incest, that's child molestation, statutory rape, and possibly actual rape.

Nice article. Right on point.

Wishing it doesnt make it so, despite the benefit it may confer

Gone but not forgotted.

well done but also fuck you

Hey! That’s a lie! Everyone knows he’s not dead. 😏
- You read the post, but did you process it? Read it again, and you might eventually get the joke.
  
  Read my comment again, and see if you process that joke

Free speech used to be a left wing key-stone. Why? Because left wing is all policy that benefits the 99%. How can masses organize without free speech? You can't, that's why the 1% (owner class) has tried everything for decades to stifle it. They are gradually succeeding, because todays 'left wing' commentary aren't for free speech. You are for free speech if you are willing to fight for all speech, even the speech you don't like, and only then are you for free speech. It is that simple, and still so many don't get it...
- You can be a strong proponent of free speech and support stronger regulation and penalties for legitimately dangerous speech.
  I don't see a lot of left wingers coming out against free speech, but I see a lot of right wingers dehumanizing others and directly calling for violence, then trying to pretend that's free speech.
  
  You can also do it like in Germany where we don't have "freedom of speech" but a freedom to express our opinions. Which doesn't include false factual statements about other people...
  
  "You can be a strong proponent of free speech and support stronger regulation and penalties for legitimately dangerous speech." This is an oxymoron. If you support stronger regulation and penalties for legitimately dangerous speech, then my question to you would be; Dangerous to whom?
  My guess is you will say minorities. Remember, the 1% is a minority too. They will use all these specially carved out protections for themselves, when time comes.
  Also if you think misinformation, the biggest source for misinformation is the governments, number two is the legacy media. Far, far behind are posts on twitter, facebook, tiktok, youtube, rumble.
  "I don't see a lot of left wingers coming out against free speech", well this is because it's easy to say you are for free speech, it's harder to defend it in a room full of people not agreeing with unpopular speech. If you only defend speech that is easy to defend then it's not principled, it's just a hobby.
  "but I see a lot of right wingers dehumanizing others and directly calling for violence, then trying to pretend that's free speech", dehumanization of others is never a good look, but since they were allowed to express themselves, you know better where they stand, and not to support them. If they were censored, you wouldn't know their stance. "directly calling for violence, then trying to pretend that's free speech", how did Bernie start all his speeches? "Are you ready for a revolution?", that revolution never came because he was never ready for a violent revolution. He had the protection to say it, but he never did. He's been in politics for too long, and knows the consequences for those words.
  I will fight for the right of anyone to say those words, because a revolution might turn violent, and not being allowed to talk about it freely is nonsensical.
- I'm fully ok with people I don't agree with stating their opinions. It's only when they want to spew hatred and actually do damage with their speech that I don't like. Free speech is totally fine, but hate speech and slander are not. I don't like when people that have the same opinion as me spew hate and lies either. Hate and lies have nothing to do with being free. At that point you are trying to restrict other people from being free.
  They can say things I don't like, as long as those things are true and free from malice. Your freedoms stop where other peoples freedoms start. We can tolerate anything, but tolerating intolerance breaks the social contract and renders it null.
  
  "I'm fully ok with people I don't agree with stating their opinions. It's only when they want to spew hatred and actually do damage with their speech that I don't like. Free speech is totally fine, but hate speech and slander are not. I don't like when people that have the same opinion as me spew hate and lies either. Hate and lies have nothing to do with being free. At that point you are trying to restrict other people from being free.", we also have hate speech restriction laws in Norway. I don't agree with them, because they are specially carved out exemptions that was meant to protect vulnerable minorities, however they can also be applied to benefit the 1%, and they will. There are probably already examples of this.
  "Hate and lies have nothing to do with being free.", here you are putting hate and lies in the same boat. I have already expressed a pushback against hate. Lies are nothing new. Lies have been printed in newspapers as fact for many many years. Politicians has been lying 'since the dawn of time'. The number one source for mis- and dis-information (unintentional and intentional lying) is the government, number two is the legacy media, and far far behind is twitter, facebook, tiktok, youtube, rumble and such.
  Who do you think decides what are lies? The government and the cia (twitterfiles supplied the receipts for this) They censored everything they didn't like under the guise of "malinformation".
  "I was the first person censored by the Biden administration. They had to invent a new word called 'malinformation'… Malinformation is information that is true but is inconvenient to the government!" - RFK jr.
  I'll finish with a quote: "We’ll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false." - William Casey, CIA Director 1981-1987
- I’m for free speech, but I’m torn on anonymous free speech. If you can’t tell where the speech is originating, it really hampers your ability to analyze it. And if you can’t identify the entity (government, corporation, or person) who originated the speech, how can you as an individual hold them accountable for the shit they say? It just leads to a cesspool, and you can’t even choose to ignore those who have lied to you in the past, because you can’t identify them.
