Summary
Elon Musk accused 60 Minutes of deception, saying its staff “deserve a long prison sentence” after the show aired an interview with ex-USAID administrator Andrew Natsios, who refuted claims of fraud in the agency.
Musk has previously criticized 60 Minutes for allegedly deceptive editing. However, Mediaite’s Colby Hall reviewed the released footage and defended CBS, stating it followed standard journalistic practices.
Meanwhile, JD Vance condemned European speech laws but distanced himself from Musk’s stance.
Supposed most powerful billionaire that has the world at his fingertips, can do no wrong and controls everything … can’t take a bit of criticism from a TV show.
This guy’s skin is about as thick and tough as wet tissue paper.
Dictators like President Musk always have the thinnest skin.
I appreciate that this is a figure of speech, but I really think that humanity would be better off if said skin was painstakingly investigated and its thinness verified throughout. For science.
The hole way through.
It’s obvious if you look at how he runs Twitter. There’s actually more censorship now than before this ‘free speech absolutist’ took over.
That’s because they all think “free speech” means “my fringe speech”.
Twitter/X is a “free speech” platform where the swastika is protected, and the Rainbow flag is banned. Every account still on there today sees this as a good thing, or as the cost of messaging on that platform. All of them should be ostracized and dropped until they close their accounts.
Note this well - this isn’t just rhetoric. He truly and sincerely believes that people should go to prison for the “crime” of criticising him.
The US is on the path to gulags and mass graves.
The world understand the USA is having some kind of episode right now . We greatly appreciate it if you could manage to keep it within your borders. Your neighbors would be glad to help rebuild once it’s calmed down.
Except this isn’t an American thing. The whole world is slowly sliding to fascism. For fucks sake Germany is on route to elect fucking Nazis again. Haven’t seen how their elections ended but it wasn’t looking good.
America spearheaded this idiocy with Trump’s first election. Hopefully now that it’s well beyond the point of fucking us we’ll now at least be an example of what not to do.
Pretty sure that Britain got on its Brexit bullshit before Trump was elected.
Orbán is throwing a tantrum rn that actually he was the first “Trump before Trump”
Trump was campaigning on the same shit at the same time. Both events are examples of far-right authoritarian tides rising around the world.
According to musk the guy who exposed his employees past racist history committed a crime. It would be funny if he wasn’t basically the president
Spoken like a true Nazi.
it’s hard to get more nazi than musk
These guys are the alpha males right? Trump and Musk are alpha? All I ever see is them complain about people hurting their feelings.
The thing about being an Alpha Male is that if you think you are one, you most definitely aren’t.
When I was younger and in the Rick and Morty fandom it’s something I noted quick, so many losers saying “I’M LITERALLY RICK!11 HE’S SO COOL AND AWESOME AND NON-CONFORMING!111” and they’d fucking idiots with the most basic bitch ass taste imaginable…
I realized it was a rule that “If you think you’re Rick, it means you’re Jerry.”
Have you ever met the soy boy ass-bitches that worship him and tate. Lol they are always edgy weaklings.
I see their “fuck your feelings” bumper stickers and think, man you worship a freak who shatters at the slightest criticism
And if you tell them that, they’ll throw a tantrum.
They wish they could fuck my feelings because that would be the first and only piece of ass they’d land in their lifetime
Alpha… as in, needed more time in development. They’re unfinished.
alpha-wolf isnt really a thing. A wolf pack is usually a family lead by the father.
Read thru the lines, you can see a lot of small dick energy there. Especially musk, what he’s saying about 60min makes me feel he is literally trying to be low resolution copy of Trump. A small sized teen boy is mimicking the senior big bully and scare rest of his class. It’s incredible how Americans make these psychologically undeveloped boys rich and in charge.
Musk is plenty awful for many valid reasons; no need to body shame people for having a small penis.
I meant nothing to do with actual dick size and everything to do with insecurity and want to be seen and etc. what’s the better term for it that’s man friendly?
Just call him what he is - a scared, disgusting little boy who can’t exist comfortably anywhere unless it is literally illegal to criticize him.
If Musk was born poor he would have been a school shooter.
I believe that.
Isn’t there more gun control in South Africa?
Nah, South Africa is super capital L Libertarian, hence why it sucks so hard.
But how did they got rid of Elon?
They didnt have to get rid of him, he came to plunder the USA cause there is more money here.
…because his daddy already plundered ZA?
I’m not sure I understand the question. Did I miss some kind of official denouncement of him from their government?
Still plenty of illegal guns. Musk totally strikes as the type of guy who would have known some illegal gun dealers and grabbed an AK-47 if he was born to a poor white family down there.
I get confused… is that the famed American free speech that Mr. Vance wants to foist upon us backward Europeans?
This is how these people think. If you even dare disagree or ask questions, you deserve the nuclear option.
peoplenarcissistsYeah.
How very Nazi of him.
America is so weak we’re letting a 4chan edgelord immigrant troll control our lives.
Our enemies couldn’t be happier.
Unelected Kleptomaniac megalomaniac Neo-nazis deserve to swing on a rope.
the president said he who saves his country isn’t guilty of a crime, by the way. :)
I watched that piece. Nothing on there was beyond what we’ve been being told for the last few weeks. This is just hushing the criticism to keep it all quiet.
“Free speech absolutist”
Sounds like Putin talk. He wants to Nelvany the 60 Minutes staff
Free Speech Absolutists when people disagree with them be like…
Removed by mod
can’t wait until Musk gets Removed
Nothing is going to happen so long as the hopeful Luigis are still communicating with each other on the platforms that the Oligarchs own.
Mario is probably planning something big
Fuck I will take Bowser at this point.
By repeatedly calling for arrests he’s trying to normalise this rhetoric as part of his position.
Keep reminding everyone he’s an unelected civilian with Trump on a very short leash calling for arrests of private citizens. This is never normal and is just as reprehensible the 100th time as the first time.
Keep calling it out.
And keep asking elected officials especially republicans, who seem up for sale to the highest bidder, how much you have to pay to get musk imprisoned with a long prison sentence, because we’re all willing to chip in, and we will even let them seize and keep his assets too if it removes his face and voice from every story on every feed
Or he’s just having a tantrum because he has no self-control and his flunkes are afraid to tell him when he’s being a cunt.
