Responses that completely destroy the original argument in a way that leaves little to no room for reply - a targeted, well-placed response to another person, organization, or group of people.

The following things are not grounds for murder:

Rules:

  1. Be civil and remember the human. No name calling or insults. Swearing in general is fine, but not to insult someone else.
  2. Discussion is encouraged but arguments are not. Don’t be aggressive and don’t argue for arguments sake.
  3. No bigotry of any kind.
  4. Censor the person info of anyone not in the public eye.
  5. If you break the rules you’ll get one warning before you’re banned.
  6. Enjoy the community in the light hearted way it’s intended.

His primary genius has been in marketing himself, for a little while long ago I actually thought he might be one of the fabled 'good billionaires'. But I think it's hard to live as a fake self for years, he's probably much more self-satisfied and validated now, showing his true self as a massive asshole.

It's kinda funny to me when people paint others as people who have always hated Musk and wanted him to fail. Nah, I used to think he was cool. Then he called a dude a pedophile for checks notes trying to save some children and the mask was shattered. He's not done a single thing since to redeem his image since then.
