    When you think of Henry Ford, do you immediately think “racist, anti-semite who stole ideas and was harmful to the working class”?

    I mean, maybe you do since people on Lemmy are a little more brushed up on historical facts; but the average person?

    Not a chance in hell that people remember Musk only as a piece of shit 100 years from now. Unless there is some massive societal crash, he will be remembered as “the guy who created Starlink and Tesla robots”.

    I’m tired of these dumbass posts that pretend like karma is some real thing and that certainly all the horrible people in the world will have horrible things happen to them eventually. It’s pure copium from the mind of a child.

      We will only remember Ford as being a racist anti-semite in due time. Edison got the same treatment. So will Musk.
