Elon Musk flew to China with Trump despite a federal judge telling him he wasn't excused from the trial over his own lawsuit against OpenAI.
Sources say he did not secure permission from the judge to leave the country.

@PalmerLuckey Killing a marketing channel that is clearly working is the "more regulation" that most conservatives fight against. Enforce opt-outs and keep freedom alive.

@AnimeVersatile @esjesjesj He's an entrepreneur who brings incredible value and strategic leadership to many of mankind's advancements. Oh, yeah, and he got wealthy doing that. Also, hearts filled with envy HATE that.
English

@esjesjesj Elon is an opportunist and profiteer to say it nicely. He successfully played billions of people who look at him as some kind of messiah. He presents himself as humanity first, but the only thing he cares about is his bottom line.

@JillSAnthony Prime Ribeye at Costco is $14.99/lb if you don't mind cutting them

I think everyone in marketing/PR at an AI company (& especially at large model companies) should watch this short piece of advice from @dylan522p w/ @patrick_oshag. Just a few minutes. Crisp and to the point. youtube.com/watch?v=LF3aUI…

@Eardstapa449 @imPenny2x We may very well agree. Curious. How are they directing your decisions on how you live?

@tj_hooper @imPenny2x I don’t envy the rich. I just don’t want them telling me how to live

99% of people really do not understand abundance as Elon describes it.
The fundamental reason is that they don’t understand compound growth.
Same people who would probably pick 1 million dollars today over a penny that doubles in value every day for 30 days.
It’s a bad choice by the way. You lose out on millions.
Imagine if that doubling object was a labor producing robot instead of a penny.
Compounding labor. It’s actually crazy if you try and wrap your mind around it.
So Elon mentions Universl High Income and the midwits flip a lid.
“The elites won’t share”
You don’t get it. They won’t need to share. They will make everything so cheap, it is effectively free.
Charities will have immense resources to distribute.
Unfathomable intelligence will exist to help optimize production and distribution.
An unfathomably large labor pool will exist that operates on solar power exclusively.
The public work projects that are erected will be unseen before levels of breathtaking.
I think we are incredibly blessed to steward this new age of abundance.
Can you see it now?
Can you see the future?

I read the article and can't find one drill down into any of the accusations she makes. For those who don't want to objectively look at the strategies involved in his decision making, this piece will manage work folks into a lather (as evidenced by this comment section). He's dismantling the UK's financial emperialistic control around the world, and nobody's appreciating it in this thread. SOO much good being ignored. The bottom line is, our nation is getting stronger through his actions.

US is destroying itself. Every department, every branch, every bureau and function of the federal government is being fatally corrupted or altogether dismantled or disabled: an administration sabotaging the functioning of the federal government theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

@whoopdeedoot @alfonslopeztena Serious question. What is "structural violence"?
English

@alfonslopeztena No, we aren't. The ruling class who owns all of our politicians is dismantling our government, stealing our money, and leaving us to die. You really have no idea what's going on over here if you're not living through the structural violence of it. Millions of us are about to die.

@keane72068 @imPenny2x Or, perhaps, this take is your perception filtered through the lens of success envy.
English

@imPenny2x i’m not sure you or he understand the depth to which some of the wealthy need to be “better than” and despise “the great unwashed masses”
English

@Eardstapa449 @imPenny2x That mindset is mindreading at best. While wealth and power are attractive to some, it does not automatically make them monsters. Check your envy.
English

@imPenny2x The problem is that the people actually running the world see the rest of us as cattle at best, useless eaters at worst. They have no desire to share or to relinquish their power.
English

@j_juliet001 @imPenny2x When "behind" is more than sufficient, the only thing to cure is envy.
English

@imPenny2x It’s a beautiful picture… and I want to believe in it too. But I’ve also seen how every “new age of abundance” still leaves people behind. Technology grows fast, but human systems don’t evolve at the same speed. That gap is where reality usually lives.
English

@Shivram_Krishna @elonmusk Yes, but, why not lob the check out of the equation. Rather, price to zero those silicon produced goods. The production infrastructure IS the divident.
English

@elonmusk We tied income to labor because humans were the engines of production.
Now the engines are silicon. The check isn't charity. It's your shareholder dividend in the automated economy.
Stop worrying about the printer. Start worrying about the distribution.
English

@Timcast Good. Conservatives should love this. Let NYC suffer their own voting, let them collapse into the gutter while we eat popcorn and enjoy the show!
English

Zohran nails it
Doing the exact opposite of what Trump did in the 80s to revitalize NYC
Tax luxury properties so the investment is worth less than other major cities, watch wealthy invest elsewhere, lose money, lose public services
amazing

@ChrisLoomis @DanPhilip_ @ClayTravis Fixed it: The top 1% is a small portion of the population who EARNS 1 of every 4 dollars in the country… your argument is more proof they should be taxed more. More importantly the tax dollars need to be used properly though is the issue.

I'm here to tell you, folks, that if Donald Trump attacks the Pope, he is dead -- dead, I tell you -- politically.
I mean, who could attack a popular Pope and get away with it.....?

@MaryWalterRadio @mamboitaliano__ Only Christ is infallible. The Pope is a man. No more. No less. He's like a CEO of any other large organization. This man made construct built between man and Christ is antithetical to what Christ would have for us. Intercessors need not apply.
English

@mamboitaliano__ Practicing Cradle Catholic here.
The Pope is only infallible in issues concerning the Church. I've always felt that if the Pope chooses to comment on worldly matters then he can be criticized.
