I was feeling bad for his ex right up until this gem:

”Then he took me to a bookstore and handed me his credit card. "Buy as many books as you want," he said. No man could have said anything sweeter.”

I feel like a SpaceX engineer probably doesn't need a sugar daddy to buy a lot of books.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

Doesn't a SpaceX engineer technically already have a sugar daddy?

Why cross these boundaries when you can just fill a yacht with porn stars and supermodels voluntarily and not violate any HR policies?

He's got a weird eugenics thing going on. I guarantee you he unironically talks about "breeding engineers" and shit.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 months ago

A wealthy man from Soth Africa has weird views on eugenics? I'm shocked!

Less of a thrill doing that than sexually harassing your employees I guess

Because he's a billionaire he gets away with doing things that would destroy a normal person over and over again, I don't like the tiered consequences that our society exhibits.

Especially in terms of "legally not rape" charges, even the average man has to face terrifyingly few consequences. So many women report assaults, unwanted aggressive advances and "not exactly consensual kinds of intercourse" without the men ever facing anything serious, not even stigma. Banging blackout drunk girls is a sport for some people.
