Well, you have to explore other languages. As Linus Torvalds once famously said:
There aren't enough swear-words in the English language, so now I'll have to call you perkeleen vittupää just to express my disgust and frustration with this crap.
Pfft amateur 😂
Never been to Scotland then
Scots aint technically english, its a cousin language or atleast the thicker dialects are.
Nyt on kunnollista
Marvelous. Contagious.
Btw seems like we need to start nationalizing shit. Can't have billionaires vetoing military decisions.
You could even say it's an infringement on democracy, since Elon isn't an elected leader.
Me too. Just for a few minutes.
I'm very close talker.
It's time to nationalize Starlink & SpaceX.
It's time to nationalize Starlink & SpaceX.
I really don't know what that would actually accomplish. How would any government benefit from doing that kind of a move, especially when the reason seems to just be that Elon is a douche, and that doesn't seem like a valid reason to do such things. Hell, even if we were to count this kind of blatant aiding of an enemy country as treason, I doubt this would be an appropriate response.
If anything, it might just set a dangerous precedent and in general be against the very same liberal values which are exactly why we're helping Ukraine against the foreign imperial occupier. Arbitrary nationalisation of the assets of politically inconvenient people is the kind of stuff that an autocratic regime such as the Russian Federation under Vova would do. And that's the kind of thing it actually does do, defenestration of political rivals is a convenient way to accomplish many goals, after all.
This is nothing, wait until megacorps have private armies matching national ones like the Hanseatic league
You mean like the East India Company which led the British colonization of India and lasted longer than the USA has been in existence (so far)?
Britain got in early on cyberpunk huh
Yeah that's a great example!
like Wagner?
like wagner.
WTF is scuppering?
To scupper something is to ruin it, prevent it, etc.
"We wanted to have a BBQ, but the rain's scuppered that!"
Never thought about it before. Now it looks weird written down 😄
"Scupper - an opening cut through the bulwarks of a ship so that water falling on deck may flow overboard"
like so much other bullshit, this comes from the navy. can't just say tossed overboard, nope, gotta have a whole new nomenclature regarding gutters on gunwales to say the same damned thing as landlubbers
I just learned a new English word, and it's maritime too! Also, yes, screw billionaires interfering with international politics. Also screw billionaires in general.
The thing that makes this even more perverse is that Musk doesn't have the power to stop Russians from attacking anywhere.
So just what the fuck does he think he's going to achieve?
No more government funding for Musk.
I kinda hope Anonymous might take a shot at Elon at some point. They are pro-Ukraine.
It's all well and good to talk about doing this, but when are we actually going to do it? I feel our window of opportunity to change society for the better is closing quickly.
I mean we already have a word to describe an absolutely insane, self absorbed, narcissistic, selfish, vindictive, asshat: it's Elon.
:P
At this point, there's quite a few people in the US I seriosuly think we should habe a talking with.
You know how sometimes after you're done pooping and you stand up to flush and you accidentally knock your cock against the front of the seat and then you're so mortified that your ballsack shrivels up and retreats into your taint?
That's what Elon Musk is. He's a retreated ballsack. A real taint seeker.
I usually only say this in person, but I'm constantly surprised that no one's tried to assassinate Elon Musk and his ilk.
If you didn’t want Elon to make these sorts of decisions then you shouldn’t have voted with your wallets to make him the richest person in the world. If you don’t like the way he’s using his OWN space satellite company to aid or not aid a country at war, then how about start YOUR own space satellite company to compete with him? Then you can let the Ukraine use your satellites to sink the Russian navy free of charge if you’re so magnanimous.
Not all of us were born with the emerald spoon in mouth he was. Its not as simple as Elon Musk is the richest person on earth because everyone thought his products were good and cool, or so simple as anyone with a dream can just go out and found a satellite company
We're not the ones who made him what he is.
Most of his money came from his family's emerald mines in Africa.Correction: The emerald mine is just what made him rich in the first place.Most of the money came from government either in subsidies, or defense contracts for Starlink; and tesla's inflated stock that is not based in reality.
Elon?
This is lemmy. That's why you are getting downvoted.
I think a picture of my asshole will suffice.
Elon The Musky Husky, American Traitor
