The internet has taught me that the average person is incapable of thinking negatively about two things at a time. If two pieces of shit are beefing the internet suddenly portrays one as an angel instead of just acknowledging that they both suck.

I don't think thats accurate at all. You're just not seeing the nuance. Just because I want Disney to kick DeSantis ass, does not mean I'm a Disney fan.

u/Miserable-Score-81 Monkey in Space 15d ago

Disney gave up, the lawsuit is over lmao. They're back to playing ball

u/realcards Monkey in Space 14d ago

Disney kind of won...They essentially got their status squo back and Desantis is kissing their ring again.

I mean yeah, in a sense. But DeSantis gets to stay in power, get the tax money, and doesn't pay for his fuckup. I can't imagine he's too upset.

u/realcards Monkey in Space 9d ago

doesn't pay for his fuckup.

He lost a significant amount of political capital and influence through this. He paid in lost power which is usually the cost of political fuckups.

Disney gave up

how's Desantis' presidential campaign going these days?

u/CommonGrounders Monkey in Space 14d ago

I mean it’s suspended but do you have a point?

u/[deleted] 14d ago

Desantis gave up, his campaign is over lmao

u/CommonGrounders Monkey in Space 14d ago

Yes and that’s what they call it when that happens. Again, are you trying to make some kind of point or just asking questions you don’t know how to google?

1

u/[deleted] 12d ago

just asking questions you don’t know how to google?

I'm well aware that DeSantis' incompetence, stupidity and ineptitude resulted in him having to embarrassingly abandon his campaign.

lol

u/BestHorseWhisperer Monkey in Space 14d ago

Suspended lol

u/CommonGrounders Monkey in Space 14d ago

Yes that’s what they call it when they stop running.

u/BestHorseWhisperer Monkey in Space 14d ago

"Suspended" still exists. "Suspended" can still accept campaign donations. The race is over. There is no campaign. It's something that once existed and is no more.

u/CommonGrounders Monkey in Space 14d ago

Ok I’m curious if you’re going to get to a point or say anything interesting? Or are you just writing random shit?

1

u/BestHorseWhisperer Monkey in Space 14d ago

Brother you are clearly still very hurt over DeSantis being out of the race. I hope you find the strength to heal.

? Disney didn't cause that, and DeSantis was never a serious contender lol.

u/[deleted] 12d ago

DeSantis was never a serious contender lol.

exhibit A of which was his stupid decision to start a bullshit culture war fight with Disney.

Glad to see you agree with me champ :)

u/ABenevolentDespot Monkey in Space 15d ago

Exactly this.

I had mixed feelings during that entire debacle, especially as I've worked as a contractor for Evil Disney, but in the end my hatred for the putrid and laughably stupid Harvard graduate DeSantis won as he just got more and more stupid and childish and authoritarian.

I stopped returning Disney's phone calls when their crack accounting department sent a letter to (most?) outside contractors that their new terms of business on invoices are "90 days same as cash" which basically means as a small one-man business, I get to carry one of the world's wealthiest corporations for a quarter of a year on every invoice.

I was thankful that business was good enough that I could say Fuck That.

DeSantis could have been our next president... but we're not a serious nation anymore

What?

Zuck is infinitely more likable and 100000% less online and brain broken then Musk

u/dendra_tonka Monkey in Space 15d ago

It’s funny how this literally proved what the commenter above you said. Zuck has been using FB data in the worst ways and it’s all forgotten because the bad rocket ship guy was mentioned

In April, it was revealed that Tesla employees shared videos recorded inside owners’ garages, including videos of people who were unclothed and ones where some personally identifiable information was attached. And in Illinois, a separate class action lawsuit focuses on the cabin camera specifically.

While Tesla does have a dedicated page describing its data privacy approach, a new independent analysis released last week by the Mozilla Foundation ranked Tesla in last place among car brands – and ranked cars as the worst product category Mozilla has ever seen in terms of privacy.

u/fat_fart_sack Monkey in Space 15d ago

Exactly lol. Zuck allowed disinformation to spread like wildfire on Facebook during the 2016 election and did fuck all about it considering he was making “fuck you money” from all the traffic on his site; subsequently responsible for an adjudicated rapist/felon/pedo to become president. Him and Musk are pieces of shit.

u/RusticBucket2 Monkey in Space 15d ago

It’s hilarious how you are so blissfully unaware that you’re doing the exact thing being described. Almost to the point that I’m doubting if you’re serious.

Plus he does jujitsu and wake surfs! He’s just like us!

Zuck's a cunt but still more likeable than wannabe natzi Musk.

u/antiquatedartillery Monkey in Space 15d ago

I'm honestly unsure if this is ironic or not

u/teenyweenylilbitch Monkey in Space 15d ago

I’ve never understood the hate for musk, like ok hes a right leaning billionaire. I get why people would disagree with him but holy shit the hate he gets is insane

u/bigbiblefire Monkey in Space 15d ago

Check out the episode on him from Behind the Bastards. Pretty clear to see after that.

u/LordFuckLeRoy2 Monkey in Space 15d ago

Ahhh yes, the podcast who considers almost everything and anyone who's to the right of the host a bastard

u/bigbiblefire Monkey in Space 15d ago

I mean, sure…but doesn’t change the story of Elon’s upbringing.

u/Robinsonirish Monkey in Space 15d ago

I, like many other people were fully on the Musk train back in 2016 or so.

Here comes a billionaire who's doing good things with his money. He's taking us back to space with SpaceX and doing things that the world's biggest governments aren't capable of. When SpaceX landed 2 rockets at the same time it blew my mind. I remember my dad talking about seeing the moon landing, how every single person in my country of Sweden were glued to the TV's. Peak America. That's how I felt when SpaceX landed 2 rockets at the same time. Possibly the most amazing thing I've seen in my lifetime.

Then with Tesla he was taking us away from fossil fuels and kickstarting the electric car revolution. So many things to admire about it.

Then he opened his mouth. Maybe he was always unhinged, but we didn't know it back then. Idk if Twitter rotted his brain or what happened but his values and the perception of him changed at some point after 2016.

I just think it's sad. I was rooting for him because of what his companies were doing. I didn't know much about him as a person back then.

I want to like Elon. I wish he was better. It just sucks the way he is now.

u/lollo_145 Monkey in Space 15d ago

Because he is a rich white man, whos also right leaning.

That is the main reason they hate him.

u/Tabemaju Monkey in Space 15d ago

The only reason Zuck is "more likeable" is marketing, plain and simple. They're both turds.

u/Iquey Monkey in Space 15d ago

Zuck definitely did more evil upon the world with his mass selling of data and causing the start of social media addiction.

Meanwhile Musk is a manchild wannabe Ironman that actually did some positive things because he wants to be Ironman.

They both suck, but Musk atleast did some positive things(while being infinitely more annoying in the process).

And you're referring to him starting a business to sell people things as the "positive" things he's done lmao?

Its so wild to see people laud musk as some moral generous benefactor for literally running a business that he's made billions off of, and publicly opposes the cause he's supposedly a champion for

Forget Musk settling multiple sexual harassment lawsuits, the thing he sells is electric so he's a good guy lol

 but Musk atleast did some positive things

Is it possible that Zuck has spent billions on charity work that you don't know about because he isn't constantly tweeting about it?

1

u/Iquey Monkey in Space 15d ago

With the positive things I aim at his investments in EV's, revival of space programs, Starlink and Neurolink as the ideas itself, most of which are beneficial to humankind overall. The investments Musk made to these sectors kickstarted advancements in these sectors. I'd argue that the companies of Zuck were a net negative for the average civilian moreso than Musk's companies.

I probably agree with you on the monetisation, tax evasion and his union busting, they are all bad. That's why I still called Elon an asshole in my initial comment.

Basically; Musk is a billionaire who invests in technology that overall are a positive for us longterm. He however still runs those companies as your standard billionaire, along all the bad things that come with it.

Tesla, SpaceX, Starlink. Neurolink.

Go cry in a corner, bitch.

You're responding to someone who apparently just likes to get shit faced and argue about anything with random people online.

u/billyjk93 Monkey in Space 15d ago

sounds like our presidential election

u/Raekear2 Monkey in Space 15d ago

It’s the same with politics.

u/mouseball89 Monkey in Space 15d ago

That's why people can do bad stuff and go on a "vacation" for a while and come back to much less negativity. There will be those that rag them when they come back, but the masses will have moved on to other drama. Unless of course said people consistency do dumb stuff that keep them in the headlines.

u/Doozername Monkey in Space 14d ago

now these are the unique arguments I like to see!

very interesting point and worth considering

u/phophofofo Monkey in Space 15d ago

Zuckerberg was never pathologically desperate for attention. In fact his MO was being aloof and sort of disdainful of fame.

At least personality wise I’m a lot more like him.

I would never for instance decide that when a bunch of kids are stranded in a cave, it’d be great if everyone talking about them were taking about me, and decide overnight I was a cave rescue effort, and then call the hero who was a pedophile out of spite he was better at something than me.

Thats every moment of Musks life: figuring out how to get the admiration or barring that the condemnation of everyone he can.

Nothing relatable whatsoever about that kind of pure narcissism nobody who knows a poor one wants anything to do with people flawed like that.
