I watched the Scott Adams video. Yes, it was racist. There's no "maybe" on this one.
Watching Elon Musk come out and defend Adams confirms to me what I've long suspected. Musk is a racist.
How many years did I defend that piece of shit, who's probably nostalgic for the good ol' days of apartheid?
@ovid If it's any consolation, at Tesla and SpaceX Musk has entire management teams devoted to keeping him from sticking his foot in his mouth or fucking stuff up. There's no such team at Twitter which is why we're only now seeing the unvarnished Musk in full cry, pissing himself and slinging turds.
I think by the early 2000s some of us in a certain age consort felt the whole promised future of rocket ships & flying cars wasn't going to happen on any realistic timeline, and instead of Pan Am shuttles to the Moon we got endless wars & recessions.
So Musk comes along and starts doing all of those things (or at least promises to, lol) and we worshipped him like he's the real Tony Stark. A lot of that fanbase still around.
