I don’t know who needs to hear this, but Derek Chauvin himself pleaded guilty in federal court and admitted that he used excessive force.
Whatever the constitutionality or merits of his current effort to reduce or eliminate his federal sentence, that has absolutely nothing to do with his underlying murder conviction. Chauvin was convicted of murder in state court beyond a reasonable doubt, and he admitted his guilt. A subsequent challenge to his sentence does not erase, invalidate, or somehow put that conviction up for debate. Derek Chauvin is, and will remain, a convicted murderer.
And Elon Musk continues to prove, over and over again, that he may be the stupidest smart person I have ever seen in my life.
He’s not smart! Holy shit why do people think he is a genius? I just don’t understand, he didn’t invent anything, doesn’t design anything engineers are currently talking about having to walk him back because he’s deadset on something catastrophically stupid.
Because you can hate the guy all you want but he’s still smart enough to make himself untold fortunes. Neither you or me or the rest of the planet have been able to do something like that. Yes he did it in an underhanded immoral way but nevertheless.
The caveat with this asshole is that he’s also dumb at the same time making him absolutely unique which is why I call him the dumbest smart person in the world.
Making millions starting from millions is expected more so when you buy into successful businesses and run off the creators. Eg Tesla and space x
He’s not a dumb smart person, he’s a dumb person’s interpretation of a smart person. He was just born with too much money to fail. The guy is stupid as fuck.
And the drug use is not helping.
He continued to kneel on George’s neck for several minutes after being told - by his fellow officers - that he had no pulse. He 100% intended for that man to die.
Didn’t some of the testimony include that they’d had beef since high school?
Jail all billionaires. You can’t be that rich without being a thief. You’ve stolen wages from the people.

He also ran PayPal, been stealing from people for yeeeaaars.
He didn’t run PayPal. He swept in at the last moment with money just like he did with Tesla. The man is really good at taking credit for shit that he didn’t do
Not a “space” Nazi. Just a very rich and powerful one.
What did we used to do to rich and powerful Nazis? Because keeping those around seems like a problem for everybody.
Give them high paying jobs in the defense industry, NASA, and NATO.
I’m really loving that someone with the handle Nonconfrontational is banned. I can only assume that they were confrontational somewhere in this community.
They’re extra confrontational - that handle is satirical for sure.
I don’t care enough to check out their profile.
This is slander to space. Elon has never been there, and probably never will be. He’s not associated with it at all, and if asked, space has dozens of planets as witnesses willing to corroborate this.
He’s not a Space Nazi. He’s a Rocket Nazi. Not even the Rocket Nazi (that’d be Wernher von Braun); just a wannabe hack.
I distinctly remember when that video popped up on reddit.
My reaction was “i just watched a murder.”
It was very clear in the moment, nothing has changed that.
The father of all lies. I have seen no one that lies as much as him and these AI bros. They should be deported to Mars. They do not deserve to live on Earth
Deported to mars without a space suit
And without any of their gadgets. Just they themselves.
Nah, he can take grok and X with him
nah, destroy them instead of giving that to him
Oh boy, the Nazi that is now suing a US state over them trying to stop AI from generating CSAM has a bad take? Shocked.
The same state that actually showed Derek Chauvin some actual consequences for once in his life.
Minnesota is kinda awesome if you can overlook the continued existence of MPD.
Definitely.
Is it legal to wish someone to put a knee on his neck until this bastard passes out?
It’s legal to wish he gets fucked to death by Gritty of the Philadelphia Flyers.
“Space Nazi” affords him even the dubious accolade of getting to or enabling space travel.
Just call him a Nepo Nazi, as he is. Highlights the only thing he’s achieved: getting ahead based on being raised with “South African emerald mine” money.
I think we should give hmi that title, then strap him to the outside of a rocket and fire it off so he can earn it.
Even then, I think the title “Dead Nazi” would be more appropriate for that scenario. And I generally prefer that.
Elon Musk only had to shut the fuck up and mind his business and he could’ve been the happiest, most successful, piece of shit drain on society alive. Instead, he’s a miserable little bitch whining online about a murder committed by an officer 6 years ago. Christ.
To prove your point I legit don’t know (based on your word I should say remember) who the dude is. Was this the Minnesota cop who shot the dude in the car while he still had his seat belt on? Or the dude who shot the kid for being new to his neighborhood (who we all found out after the fact stole a pack of skittles).
Keep in mind I stole a few candy bars when I was in high school. Kids do dumb shit, all kids do.
Or wait was this the main asshole cop that suffocated a dude in the middle of the street by laying his knee on the guys back?
Or was this The New York or New Jersey cop who suffocated a dude for selling cigarettes on the sidewalk?
Fuck….
When you list it all out from memory it’s fucked up. And I’m sure I’m still missing some.
You forgot the one where the police served an illegal no-knock warrant to the wrong house and kicked the door in causing the homeowner to fire a shot (rightfully) believing there were home intruders and his EMS worker girlfriend was murdered in the officer’s return fire. Can’t you think of the poor officers? It’s awfully hard to read a house number
but the cops were all very afraid!
All the mass shooters in the world, and none can get this twerp?
“Why do people say such atrocious things” they wonder, as they endlessly reply, retweet, screenshot and spread to other social networks, etc
Engagement is engagement
When have people not said atrocious things?
…and how could it be bad to discuss those atrocious things that were said?
Yes, Twitter makes money from engagement, engagement is big business everywhere from bars to church to parks to online meeting places. Engagement is supremely important and valuable.
yes exactly. Why do you think that is???
Human behavior is motivated by several functions, one of the most common being attention. Note that attention is not qualified or given adjectives. This is because behavioral research has shown for decades that attention is attention and serves to reinforce the behavior, thus increasing the likelihood that it continues
“Don’t feed the troll”, basically
Think about it, what does Elon (or anyone like him) get from posting nasty shit or doing hitler salutes? Notoriety. And what happens when you engage with this to label it as bad? Does he suffer? No, he is emboldened. Both financially (as you’ve mentioned) and through the function of attention based reinforcement. Someone telling you you’re a fucking piece of shit is still someone willing to give you the time of day.
However, this very basic concept is both apparently extremely difficult to understand as well as reliant on impulse control which is increasingly in short supply. Thus, we are doomed.
I’ve found most people who tell me “that’s the truth” are lying.
Or when they preface anything with “honestly…”.
The gunslinger is the truth.
Roland is the truth.
The Prisoner is the truth.
The Lady of Shadows is the truth.
The Prisoner and the Lady are married. That is the truth.
The way station is the truth.
The Speaking Demon is the truth.
We went under the mountains and that is the truth.
There were monsters under the mountain. That is the truth.
One of them had an Amoco gas pump between his legs and was pretending it was his penis. That is the truth.
Roland let me die. That is the truth.
I still love him.
That is the truth.
When is a door not a door? When it’s a jar, and that is the truth.
Blaine is the truth.
Blaine is the truth.
What has four wheels and flies? A garbage truck, and that is the truth.
Blaine is the truth.
You have to watch Blaine all the time, Blaine is a pain, and that is the truth.
I’m pretty sure that Blaine is dangerous, and that is the truth.
What is black and white and red all over? A blushing zebra, and that is the truth.
Blaine is the truth.
I want to go back and that is the truth.
I have to go back and that is the truth.
I’ll go crazy if I don’t go back and that is the truth.
I can’t go home again unless I find a stone a rose a door and that is the truth.
Choo-choo, and that is the truth.
Choo-choo. Choo-choo.
Choo-choo. Choo-choo. Choo-choo.
Choo-choo. Choo-choo. Choo-choo. Choo-choo.
I am afraid. That is the truth.
Choo-choo.
“The man in black fled across the desert, and the gunslinger followed.”
“The man in black fled across the desert, and the gunslinger followed.”
The source? I just made it the fuck up
That is the truth.
