As the CEO of Tesla, and head of DOGE, why the he!! would he retweet a post saying Stalin, Mao and Hitler did not murder millions of people, “Their public sector workers did.”  
 What a fck'n idiot.

 
I don't know what the talking heads are saying, Dano, nor the context of tweet
But my "speculation" of what he was trying to covey, is that the public servants were supportive of, and willingly  did the dirty work.
 
That would be a true statement imHo

For a smart guy, he sure does/says some stupid impulsive crap. 
 
 

The problem with musk and people like him are that they drastically overestimate themselves.

 He borrowed a massive amount of money against Tesla stock to buy Twitter. That stock was WAY over valued to begin with and if current sales and industry trends continue, Elon and tesla both could both be under water on their outstanding loans.

It is amazing the support the blue collar community gives this guy. He is actively advertising to take yours and your children/grandchildren’s livelihood, while you praise his efforts.

I guess so. To be clear, the guy is bad for most of us, work wise. Not just blue collar.

I really didn’t even know about the Tesla Bot, I was just looking on their site about the taxi. They list the usefulness of the Bot as doing “unsafe, boring or tedious jobs”. Unsafe is the reason of having high pay of many blue collar jobs. Same can be said of tedious as well. What job isn’t boring at times? These things are supposed to be $20k-$30k. Imagine being a line worker that makes $120k+, mostly because it is dangerous work. That is pay alone, that company likely pays twice that amount in insurance, taxes, benefits. Replaced for $20k???

Having a guy whose business model is set up to replace human jobs with AI and robotics, be the guy in charge of “efficiency”… I wonder how many of these “winning” factories supposedly moving to the US will be fully automated? Does moving manufacturing to the US mean all that much if it creates 20 new jobs, but should create 500? A simple Google search of what jobs will AI eliminate, manufacturing is pretty high on the list. Who needs regulations, businesses will do the right thing….

I heard that one candidate talk about that, I believe Yang? I haven’t heard Trump or Musk talk that. Not sure I’d believe it either,

Let’s see it put in action. Perfect opportunity to get it started

Elon Musk Says Universal Income Is Inevitable: Why He Thinks That’s a Bad Thing | Nasdaq
In Musk’s eyes, advances in AI will change the world to the point that eventually, hardly anyone will even have a job. This will require governments to pay out a universal basic income, as most people won’t even be drawing a paycheck.
In 2024, Musk took his views a step further, telling the VivaTech conference in Paris that not just a basic income but a high universal income will be the future of the world. As Musk put it, “In a benign scenario … probably none of us will have a job. … But in that benign scenario, there will be universal high income — not universal basic income, universal high income. There will be no shortage of goods or services.”
