You're all missing the obvious one.

TESLA. They've been doing this to Tesla for years. I don't know if they just don't want an upstart techbro controlling EVs or what, but they've been shorting and press bombing Tesla for years to drive it's stock down. Elon has talked about it publicly before.
In my opinion the same people who are shorting tesla are paying the protesters to burn teslas. Liberals acting as the violent hand of petrocapital is a level of irony I never thought I'd see.

I don't drink, I don't smoke, I don't have a porn addiction, I don't gamble, I don't do drugs, etc. Cola is my one vice. I really hate that whenever I bring this up I get a bunch of people telling me to just stop drinking soda; I understand the arguments against it but I like it and drink it anyways. "Stop enjoying simple pleasures" should not be your reflexive reaction when simple pleasures become unaffordably expensive.
These sorts of people are always the ones with far worse vices than enjoying soda. I had a guy who smokes packs a day and has to smoke on his breaks tell me a zero sugar Pepsi was bad for me. Sure thing man.

I would contend that, along with trooning his child out, are among the straws from the left that broke the autistic camels back for Elon. I'm not even sure if it was based on his semi friendly relationship with Trump the first term or if it really just boils down to retarded commies thinking all rich people = bad except their rich people, but the left has been against Elon for longer than Elon has been on team MAGA. Whatever the reason, they ended up doing the same thing with him that they did with many others who used to be left of center by harassing and targeting him after he failed one of their many purity tests.
Elon may be an autistic lolcow in many ways but it's completely understandable he's adopted an attitude of "yeah fuck those assholes" with regards to the political group that decided to start calling for him to be investigated etc just for not explicitly falling in line. He got on their negative radar when he posted about the COVID lockdowns and it has been escalated to total retard war.
 
Here's what I don't get? Why do people use the stock market as a gauge of HOW the economy is doing? I would hear people from Bidenomics talk abou how the GDP has increased 2.6% or something, yet ignore that people can hardly afford groceries, gas and rent as basic necessities to get BY.

I remember hearing somewhere from someone once that: fucking your wife doesn't increase the GDP, but recording someone fucking your wife and selling it on OnlyFans does increase the GDP.
 
Looking around that subreddit, it would seem that like the rest of Reddit, the place is unfortunately pozzed beyond all hope of recovery by TDS/EDS leftards. They particularly really fucking hate Musk, likening him to Bob Page (the main villain) every time he's mentioned anywhere going back several years. Ironic because I'd say he's more like Juan Lebedev, the rich guy who's on the side of the anti-globalist resistance even if his motives and the rebels' may not be 110% aligned all the time and who uses his fortune to give them a fighting chance by buying something important to the enemy (LaGuardia Airport for Lebedev, Twitter for Musk). Real old money clans like the Rothschilds are probably both richer and more influential than Musk, they just don't have all their assets counted publicly and their influence is both more insidious & more entrenched, going back long before Musk was even born. Rather silly that they're apparently so fiercely opposed to the possibility of Musk buying the DX IP too, when it's probably the only way we'll ever get another DX game on account of how badly the IP has been mismanaged & neglected over the past decade.

These Reditors also seem to think Page (a corporate fat cat who wants to become God, the #1 act of blasphemy possible according to most if not all religions, and whose organization is explicitly stated to be secular & anti-religious) should be classified as auth-right and that the NSF (literally an anti-government militia) should be considered authoritarian. Lot of people like to argue that DX is supposedly a left-wing game too, which is a fucking comical stance to take considering MJ12 is pretty much a faction-sized avatar of 'globalist totalitarianism bad' while the NSF is explicitly shown to be of a fervently libertarian, pro-2nd Amendment and Christian persuasion throughout the first 1/3 of the game.

So, your personal life isn't worth anything unless somebody sells your personal information without your consent?

If I pay you a dollar to say the word "nigger," and then you pay me a dollar to say the word "faggot," we just added $2 to the GDP.
