    Either say ‘retard’ and own it or don’t say retard. Nothing gets better by masking single fucking letters. Especially when asterisks get interpreted as italicized text in markdown.

        Calling someone or something retarded is actually against moderation policy on lemmy.world.

        I know cause I was explicitly called on it by one of the admins when I first joined.

        Ironically I think the word is a great description of the policy that bans it, but it is what it is, not my house not my rules.

    Definitely just dumb as shit. He bought PayPal, Tesla, and spacex after someone else did all the work. He has no intellectual achievements. Fortunately for him he was born into money and is a sociopath so despite being a moron he’s the richest man on earth and I have to look at his stupid face every day.

      He didn’t buy PayPal, PayPal bought his payment company

      He didn’t buy Tesla, he asked AC Propulsion to form a new EV company with him. AC Propulsion were a car modification company; roadster 1 was like an AC Propulsion car — a lotus converted to electric

      Who do you think he bought SpaceX from? I haven’t heard that before. Musk was tweeting about SpaceX’s first launch attempt as if it was his company; the shit take is he started the company because he was pissed off that Russia wouldn’t sell him a rocket. Is the new anti Musk take that he successfully bought a Russian rocket?
