>After Tesla showed a steep drop in profits and a sliding stock price, Elon Musk was quick to blame fake protesters for manipulating public opinion against him. Rachel Maddow takes a look at polls of public opinion that suggest that Musk should reconsider the public appetite for destroying the U.S. government and firing public workers.
Our good friend Elon Skum, everybody!

people hate him plenty to protest for free.

Guy thinks he can can platform and fund hate while throwing NAZI salutes and people wont hate him. I thought he was a genius clearly not.

Hmmm… that doesn’t explain people donating their Teslas to be axed to pieces in public:
or the „Everybody Hates Elon“ collective in the UK…. or QL Richardson’s video … or …

Typical narcissist – takes no responsibility for negative results of his own actions – and blames others for the consequences from things he himself did.
[Similarly, he takes the credit for the good things done by others, and pretends he was the one responsible for anything good that happens.](https://www.youtube.com/shorts/uoPU5JedCR0)

Wow we really needed fucking polling for that one. To debunk the idea that there wasn’t a massive, international conspiracy of tens or hundreds of thousands of individual paid protestors, all of whom were so incredibly well paid and so incredibly dedicated to the cause that none came forward to collect the obvious fame and fortunate that would have resulted from revealing the conspiracy. Which would have made it the largest successful conspiracy in the history of the world by an enormous margin, coordinated across multiple continents, all to hurt one rich idiot.
The US isn’t a serious country anymore. That he wasn’t laughed at to his face by every news outlet for claiming this is a devastating indictment to how far we’ve fallen.

>Musk told analysts during the company’s first quarter earnings call on Tuesday that the demonstrators would never admit the real reason they’re protesting is because they get paid through government programs that have been victim to DOGE’s cuts, but that was the real rationale underlying their actions.
Oh, yup. He’s not an unhinged delusional narcissist.
For funding, maybe this is what he’s talking about (but it’s not USA, not about DOGE, and it’s crowdfunded by personal donations): [https://www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/everyone-hates-elon](https://www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/everyone-hates-elon)

And yet his accusation that buying protesters is somehow more insidious than buying the government. Is there a virus going around that kneecaps irony?
Hairy_rambutan on
On the other side of the planet (Australia), have disliked him for ages. Specifically chose a non-Tesla EV in 2021, non-Starlink internet provider in 2022 and non-Tesla solar battery storage specifically because of Musk. The signs of him being a Nazi-loving sexist creep were there quite a while ago.
HankAmerica on
Wait, other people are getting paid to hate him?
Devoidus on
Who actually believes that? Is there any confirmed recent incidents of this?
reddittorbrigade on
Some of them are sympathizers, families and friends of the employees Elon merciless fired.
Elon must be rejected by ALL the people around the world.
Elon has no empathy and conscience.

I paid myself $70k by not buying myself a cybertruck. Does that count?
Spoiler: wouldn’t buy that fugly truck from Jimmy Damn Carter himself

Elon Musk is mentally ill.

Unceremoniously throwing 200,000 federal workers out of jobs, closing USAID, stealing data, lap dancing for Putin and *checks notes* throwing up N zi salutes will usually make one unpopular. Just a guess.

Paid protesters lol. Who is paying them. Ohh wait that will be “the left” it says so on the cheques and their bank accounts. How do you apply for the protest job. Where is it advertised.
bzzty711 on
Waste of a poll. Next poll do Republicans lie. Is Trump a liar. Does current government have Nazi leaning ideas. News flash!!!
MatniMinis on
Clearly the paid protesters are also paid poll takers…

Age of information can work against them as much as it can work for them. When people are fired up enough to make the effort to find out that is..

Does this asshole really think investors are buying this paid protestors bullshit?

Nobody’s paying me to hate this fuck. Where do I sign up for my checks? I could do this for the rest of his life.

Yesterday’s earnings report was in the toilet, yet the stock rose like 30 points. I don’t get it?
techiered5 on
Oh come on as if you didn’t know, he’s the one paying for support paying commentators and agitators.
He’s the one storing this divisive political rich vs poor thing going on
Abject-District-6303 on
No, it is because he is a Nazi.
KinklyGirl143 on
They are absolutely moronic and yes they believe this. I fell down a hole earlier, well more like cesspool of hate that was *stupid fu***** *liberals*. And yes, it’s all you think it would be and so much more. Reddit is evil for allowing such rancid content and suggesting it to me.

The projection is strong…this is the same guy that came up with a scheme to get people to vote republican by paying his own employees millions of dollars in a faked lottery
NickelBackwash on
Imagine the richest man in the history of the world bitching that he’s victimized by somebody outspending him…
If public opinion is just money, then why are you so unpopular?
Pre3Chorded on
Polling doesn’t prove shit, this is so dumb.
The fact that there’s no paid protestors proves there’s no paid protestors. If there was, there’d be advertisements offering pay for protests, like there’s ads for open job positions.
Minute-Individual-74 on
Isn’t the huge drop in sales proof they weren’t paid protestors?
What did George Soros pay a bunch of people not to buy Teslas or something? Like come on, dude. It’s pretty black and white now
wranglero2 on
The power of the people. He needs people to buy his cars, he had forgotten that.

The only one paying people to vote and do whatever else, is him.

yay!

My only hope is that when RFK starts rounding up the autistic people, they come for Elon first.
>that wasn’t a nazi salute, he’s just autistic.
Ok fine, let’s make him a special boy and move him to the front of the line then.
JDogg126 on
He pays for protest actors so he assumes all protests are paid protest actors. Pretty much every accusation is an admission with the maga assholes.
