President Elon Musk

He probably deserves his own thread at this point, discuss accordingly

I agree, he's a lot smarter than most rocket scientists.

Who cares who's idea this was or that was, we should always be putting our heads together to solve major global issues. War is a major humanitarian issue, of which we had none when Trump was our President the first go around. There's a lot at stake rn, it's not a popularity contest or about the media getting butt hurt from Elon taking their voices away on Twitter.

So now the guy that is so ****ing scared of the globalists is now rallying for world peace as a solvable issue. Wtf do you think the international courts and laws are designed to stop? What's next, world poverty?

I hear you.

The genius used his sharpie too!

I have no idea what you're talking about. Can you elaborate?

Who's scared of the globalists?

Who's relying on international courts?

and who's "rallying for world peace"?

You are just one big giant clown show with your postings here. Figure it out, I am not wasting any more time on my you. Everyone else, have a merry Xmas and happy holidays.

I am not wasting any more time on my you.

Can you put this in another sentence or reword it, because I dunno what you're trying to convey. What's "on my you" mean? Are you from Australia by any chance, if so then what are you on about?

I've already proven my point to you anyway, your hatred towards Trump is unsubstantiated.

And that avatar, wow you musta went from being so happy when that mugshot was taken to today when he's about to take office again. Life has it's ups and downs. Hang in there, man. He'll be gone in 4 years unless they change some things and he never leaves...

Maybe I’m wrong but if I remember correctly , u always referred globalism with the DS controlling it .

You're learning quick.

And as I've said for 4 yrs, sleepy joe was a 100% controlled puppet . Now it's being proven how right I always am .




Looking forward to the eventual turn to a Musk appreciation thread.

Always right, like the time I pointed out you posted a pic from a year ago and said it was from last night.


Trump retweeted this, they are aware of the attempt to trigger Trump with talks about how "Musk is supposedly the actual president"

I don't think it means what you think.

What do you think it means?


What are example of Trump being manipulated in the way that people think this will work?

There are a lot of memes about Trump being an idiot and proposing ridiculous solutions to complex problems, but are there examples of him actually being handed a controller not plugged into the console and him thinking he's playing?

Edit: In hindsight, I probably know the answer to this, and should read some of the books that came out after his first stint in the Oval. Still, I don't think he's blind to plots like this that are hatched and widely spread on social media. He spends 10 hours a day on his phone...


Are the people on the left here following the war going on between MAGA and Musk libertarian techbros on twitter? it has been like 3-4 days of constant warfare with Musk team defending H1B visas and indian immigration for IT jobs and the actual racist MAGA core on twitter going fully crazy against them.

I understand that for people who think Musk is MAGA the above is nonsense but for those who followed closely since the beginning and know those 2 souls of the right are at odds on crucial topics it is not surprising.

And we are talking actual policies here not performative political theater.


Yeah even the German SPIEGEL reported on it. You can say what you want about Musk, but on this issue he's grounded on reality. I know a CS professor in the US (himself an immigrant) who told me like 20 years ago that he didn't have PhD students without a migration background in years. If you look at the US nobel laureates this century, almost 30% of them in chemistry, physics, and medicine were not born in the US.


Putting aside the immigration aspect, the question I don't see being debated is whether Musk is right that America is in trouble if the bottom half of our engineers aren't that good. Obviously, it would be slightly better for us engineering wise, if that bottom half were as smart as the top .1% of foreign engineers. But I am thinking it would be only slightly better. After all, even those .1 percenters would almost all be crushed on an engineering test if they were competing against our best MIT, Cal Tech, or Columbia students. Maybe Musk is just trying to change the bench sitters from the third string to the second string without considering the downsides.

Now you just have to figure out how to tie politics to reality too. Good luck 😀

What % of those best MIT, Cal Tech, or Columbia students are again (1st/2nd gen) immigrants though?

Trump is on record claiming getting a PhD in stem in an American college should automatically qualify for a green card btw, so that's what the actual MAGA leader thinks.

Musk spends a couple months around Maga people and concludes that there is a bigger difference between the average American and joe blow engineers on H1bs than the average American and Wemby or Giannis!

There are 2 separate issues though. If you look at graduate students in math/physics/CS at Harvard/Princeton/MIT Americans especially whites are about as underrepresented as you'll ever see in the US in any field. But it's not unreasonable if you just look at total population. It's not a shock that India and China produce more top level talent than a country with only 330 million people. H1Bs are a completely different story. 25% of the US should be able to do those jobs and maybe crapping on college degrees for the last 8 years and telling people to be plumbers wasn't that smart if you're also racist.


This is just the immigration debate though

Like in a nutshell; this is the immigration debate

Its just elons a moron who didnt realise it

This is part of the immigration debate and Musk realized it very well which is why he said the exact same things in 2023 and in 2024 before election day.

It's just some ultra racists that for some reasons hoped Trump (who never even vaguely hinted at having absolutely any problem with legal skilled immigration at all) would kill legal skilled immigration as well that went nutz.

Normal decent people want legal skilled immigration, don't want any parasite nor any net tax taker immigrant, and want a fairly hard but just path to citizenship for hardworking talented people.

That used to describe the bulk of democrat and republican voters and elected politicians.

Now it represents a tiny amount of democrats and the vast majority of republicans because the democratic party moved obscenely to the left on that (like on many other issues).

Note that there was never a majority in favor of taking in poor people and giving them welfare in any moment in American history yet it happened (because democrats truly hate democracy)

Yeah, it’s not a surprise that the white non college maga base that was dumb enough to be manipulated to think Obama was born in Africa, that Trump won in 2020 or that the covid vaccine was dangerous might be fertile ground for negative views on people of Indian and Chinese origin making 10x as much as them.
