Elon Musk is such a fucking tryhard it's honestly so cringe

[n9wiff]

I don't even know what it is about that guy 

But it screams tryhard uber-cringe gay lord

[bluerose]

i think he thinks he knows how to save the world (global stability until benevolent ASI happens), but in fact he does the opposite, enforcing chaos and trusting incompetence, prolly cuz deep down he knows he is not competent but a psychopath.
just look how his hiring wishes were, basically he wants a bunch of gifted betas working for free to help secure his alpha role, when in reality he himself should be far away from any leading positions and instead create ways for true superiors to better handle the situation. 
doesn't help that he has no idea about ethics, which is ironically the one thing the AI branch needs expertise in before it escalates.

[Dreckssau]

Yes. He tries hard. How is that a bad thing?

It happened to make him the richest man on the planet.

Our culture strives on people not trying, not taking chances, staying in their comfort zone, because some loser might think it's "cringe" to try.

Fat people think fit people are "try-hards". Uneducated people think that those who read serious books are "try-hards". Or that those who listen to classical music instead of mindless pop are "try-hards".

Classical music is outdated dogshit and I didn't attack his business endeavors, It's the way he acts that makes him just so fucking weird.


He was caught buying a PoE 2 account a while back IIRC so it's obvious the dude wants to build a cult following. Imagine a horde of American zoomers buying Tesla energy infrastructure and hoping to get a model 3 as their dream car.

I don't get this because I'm not into politics but I assume ASI means AI taking over and stuff? 

Absolutely brutal because the job market here is already shitty enough.

Most of the great classical music pieces by Bach, Beethoven, Mozart , etc sound a lot less "outdated" than the average chart hit that was released 5 years ago.

And I don't care, if he acts weird. Better to act weird than to be boring like Bill Gates.

I too fell for the trick early on. "Oh the fact that Elon is stuttering means he's secretly smart."

It turns out no

You're considered smart in today's society if you can come up with the "rationalist justification" for why there are billion genders, ideally in an academic language.

You are considered "dumb", if you can think for yourself. I'd rather be dumb.

Completely delusional

If you surrender to the Russian aggressor, you are a Cuckold.

[Dreckssau]

If you surrender to the anti-Russian fearmongering, you are a Cuckold.

Correct!

[Busty Doll]

Correct!

How's it fearmongering when it happened

Russian tanks have rolled into your continent

They always were, cause Russia is part of Europe, you genius. Russia and the Ukraine are one country.

So Russia is fighting a civil war and losing to one measly state, embarrassing ngl

[Busty Doll]

They are now because emperor Zelenskyy has annexed Kursk Oblast.

But generally, soon-to-be-former Russia is in Asia. "Northern Mongolia" is probably the closest fit.
