    Musk could give away a billion dollars a week for the rest of his life and never drop from the forbes list. (Considering how his personal net worth has basically never decreased over time). He doesn’t care about money anymore, once you go beyond a certain point you just stay there, no matter what fucked up shit you say or do.

    He could appear on live TV tomorrow sodomizing 10 human toddlers and nothing would happen to him.

    Threatening him with money will just not work. Ever. Unless we set up guillotines for ultra rich assholes this will only get worse, especially now that Trump and Musk showed their peers that laws don’t matter anymore.

      Yes and no. It’s still a hit to his attempt to grow his control (read: now he can’t threaten them with turning off starlink). Extra so if everyone else sees that there’s a viable alt to Starlink; which there will be if people start buying it so it can continue investing.

      As for guillotines, stop, I can only get so erect.
