              What is my “weird thing” about Elon?

              Is it that he thinks that I’m both a fake white person and am oppressing real white people? Because he says that’s the actual truth.

              It is weird to have a “thing” about someone who thinks that is “the actual truth” about you.

              It also has nothing to do with his shitty cars.

                  I didn’t say anything about your Tesla, I didn’t even know you owned one.

                  That’s an Elon hater in action.

                  Dude, Elon hates me.

                  Because of who my parents and their parents were.

                  Hating a billionaire for causing the world to be a worse place is not “obsessing over wealth”. That’s quite literally just bootlicker rhetoric to shield the billionaire class. Fuck all billionaires, but especially Musk.

                  There are so many better options out there that don’t encourage the board to keep a racist, sexist, rightwing nut job in charge. It’s not 2018 anymore, I encourage you to take a look at other options.

                  The last uber I was in was a Tesla (a Model Y) and it felt like the door was going to come off when I closed it. Not to mention the lack of buttons and the fact that you have to turn your body 45° and look down to see your current speed. Is that really the “best electric car on the market”? I really don’t think you’d be saying that if you were actually willing to explore the market and leave the walled garden.
