Got slapped in a throuples spat.
Doubt it. Pussies like him avoid physical conflict at all costs, even though they would never admit it.
I'm like 99% sure he's just taken a line too strong of ketamine and literally zoned out and hit his face on the table. He's right handed right? So he'd take his right hand to his nose and snort with his left nostril, then have that hit a bit too hard and fall on the right side of his face.
Is that roughly the size of one of Brigitte's bony fingers?
he took a cheeto to the face
Who cares?! He is a fascist scum!
Hitler enjoyed when his inner circle fought with each other. Elon Musk is going out on good terms. The rich have solidarity in their class. Instead of focusing on Elon Musk, maybe you should focus on the dystopic security state that is being built by Palantir. Peter thiel is the anti social Angry gay man who runs that shit.
what do you call a Nazi with a black eye?
a good start
I LOVE that he thinks his leaving government to refocus on Tesla will solve the sales issue Tesla has been experiencing.
He just does not get it.
The sad thing is if he steps away from politics, I think the outrage will subside in a couple of months. The public doesn't have that strong a memory in the best of times, with the pace of news nowadays, very few people will remember how much of problem he was being.
So yes, just locking him out of the spotlight would be enough. His leadership is not great, but distracting him could really save Tesla's image.
I am hopeful that the pain continues for him. Tesla was the only option for a few years for an EV with >100mile range and a nation wide system for charging. Those things are not true anymore. I mean I got chargers near my visitor center tourist area with a population of ~40k ffs. He had a monopoly and a comically inflated stock valuation. The stock is currently seeing a proper rebalance now that there is competition. Dude had a defacto monopoly, and pissed it away to do two Nazi salutes. He likely will never be actually broke, and Tesla isn't going away completely anytime soon. But any economic pain he endures is a slight glimmer of hope.
I agree that Tesla does and should be considered to have deeper problems, as more new players crowd out Tesla as well as "legacy" automakers in many ways also competing.
I feel like TSLA is still way out of wack. You put GM, Ford, Toyota, and Honda together and still you are less than half the market cap of Tesla. This is utterly absurd, even the "not up to snuff today, but they'll outgrow everyone" argument I don't see happening.
But as to his adventures in "Dark MAGA", he gets some people distracting him with shiny toys and telling him how smart he is and the world will largely forget that particular "contribution" in fairly short order. So long as it's not letting him declare that all Tesla products henceforth will adopt the cybertruck design language and quality, Tesla can benefit from him just stepping the hell out of the spotlight again.
The problems with tesla are not really about his involvement with the government, but that he's being outcompeted by BYD and other Chinese EV manufacturers.
Unfortunately, you're probably right.
Wasn't Tesla the company that had a person (or group of people) dedicated to distracting him, thereby letting the rest of the company actually do work?
That picture doesn't look like the picture of a guy who will finally deliver self driving cars after promising they were less than one year away for the last 20 years.
The drugs ate his already small brain
In a world where billionaires exist, by rules of ethics, as long as they exist, we are all defending ourselves from them.
He was tripping balls at that event.
I've known ket users, and I know how he got that black eye - he tried to walk across a room and fell over and hit his head.
Ding ding ding 100% correct what do we have for our guest?
He absolutely faceplanted into a table or something
Literally my first thought as well.
Like if you see a kid with a bruised knee, you don't assume he's been in a fight, you know it's a kid and kids fall down all the time.
Same with ket addicts.
And then pissed himself probably

Right wing ideology is ultimately self destructive because it’s literally built on being selfish.
The ketamine side effects probably had him fall and/or bump into something.
Yeah, honestly, as much as I want there to be some drama here, he probably did this to himself by accident. The kid punching him story is stupid, fake, gay, dumb, etc. Nobody really believes that shit.
If someone did actually punch him, he would have lost his shit, there would be a much larger fallout.
He's just a drug addict (not a bad thing, lots of beautiful people are, let's not shame), who is abusing others around him as a result of his drug abuse. He probably just hit his head on something while fucked on Special K/E/Adderall/etc.
I think most addicts would disagree with you that being an addict isn't a bad thing.
Hating addicts for being addicts, is a bad thing. They're still people, with full lives, and can be wonderful humans. They may also need help, or they may choose not to get help. The point being, we shouldn't judge people based on whether or not they're an addict.
Noone said they were hating him for his drug use. Being a drug addict is a bad thing by definition. If it wasnt a negative for the person we wouldnt call it addiction.
Unfortunately drug addicts are "judged" because they are simply riskier to associate with than a sober person. I'm not sure how many sober people are actually left though, and most people won't disclose their drug addictions.

Him and Steve miller got into it
His mind is on the verge of becoming complete mush due to drug abuse isn't it?
He looks and sounds like a druggie that will soon become homeless due to complete disassociation with reality, how can this even happen with personal doctors and clinics, and diets, and cosmetologists and whatever else?
"verge of"
Bro he went off that ledge like 10 years ago
Micheal Jackson had all those things and still OD’d on tranquilizers.
Drugs can be a helluva drug. Also billionaires don’t think that anyone else has the right to tell them “no”.
Also billionaires don’t think that anyone else has the right to tell them “no”.
Also, billionaires have enough money to find a doctor who will tell them, "yes."

Also, Musk is notoriously overconfident that he can learn anything better than experts. No doubt in my mind he's decided how much ketamine and other drugs he "needs," and has pliant doctors to agree.

The video of him here is pretty suspect too. Sure looks like he's rolling on some shit.

“I told X to hit me in the face” (paraphrased)
If only that kid had had a sharp object in his hand at the time. He’s already on his way to being a Numba 2. 💩
father of the year using his kids as prop, again. much family values, very Christian wow
Probably fell and cracked his head while down the k-hole.
It suits him, although two would be even better. Also, I'd love to see him picking up his former teeth.
He puts the cunt in contusion. Works better out loud rather than written though.
Kid got tired of being used as a human shield in public.
Oh don't worry, her just tripped and fell into a doorknob from a door that someone was swinging into his stupid face.
