Wilson, who transitioned as a teen, described Musk as cold and absent, and revealed she no longer associates with him or his family.
So he's a sociopath. That checks out
Elon Musk's daughter has functioning eyeballs.
I saw a gif earlier that I can't find. It has Elon's seig heil salute that is perfectly timed to a group of Neo-Nazis executing the same salute. They were absolutely identical.
Does anyone know where to find it?
For some reason, lemmy absolutely will not allow me to upload that one gif. Here's some alternatives:
My eyes told me the same thing.
It’s mindblowing how anyone still genuinely thinks what he did was anything but.

"iT wAs A rOmAn sALuTe" oh you mean the "salute" that appears in exactly one painting from the 1700s, long after the Roman empire had fallen?
There are videos of people being asked to recreate it, and while most refuse to do it (because of the implication), some add their own flourish to make it look like something else. That should tell you everything you need to know.
Can’t really really refute painterly proof.
Looks like people reaching out for swords rather than a salute to me. The Nazis played some mental gymnastics to get to where they are.
And was the direct inspiration for the Nazi salute.
Indirect inspiration. Hitler got it from Mussolini, who got it from Gabriele d’Annunzio, who got it from a Broadway production of Ben-Hur, which got it from the US Pledge of Allegiance, which got it from the painting.
The painting? I believe it.

I suspect 90% of the people who want to give him the benefit of "doubt" when there actually is none, is very well aware of what he did.
