    Just so you're aware. I don't care.

    As for why he didn't do some of the things he said he would, you will have to ask him.
    Do any politicians do everything they say they will do? Nope

    Just so you're aware, I know you are looking for a reason to exhibit your homophobia

        It's odd that you're fixated with Elon over your country's failures. And they are numerous. You healthcare system is on the verge of collapse. There's a national drug shortage. Your military can't defend your country. I'm not making up any of that. It's all true.


        As far as Elon destroying Twitter? Would you like to place a bet on it? Doesn't have to be money.

          Actually Elon is rebuilding Twitter. On the other hand Mark Zuckerberg is destroying Facebook. With his latest censorship announcement, after December 1st IMHO as much as 50% of current Facebook users are going to be leaving for more friendly media and along with them will go a sizeable of Facebook's advertisers.

            Why would you say I'm fixated with Musk? This is a thread that YOU created specifically about him. I'm just following the topic. It's seems to be you that's fixated on something other than the thread topic. Why is that?

              Context, is your friend. I qualified your fixation by clearly stating that you're more fixated on him that your own country. It's true. You never talk about your country unless I pry it out of you. Even then you give half-assed responses to avoid talking about the problems in Canada.

              Tell us again why you don't talk about Canada and choose to fixate on American politics? To be accurate, you only focus on American conservatives. Are you that much of an extreme liberal that you need to push your Canadian socialism on Americans?

                  When you were a kid, did you want to grow up to be rich and successful? Do you have kids? Do you want them to grow up to be rich and successful?

                  Would you want your kids to grow up and produce electric cars to help save the planet?

                  How about building rockets to unlock the secrets of the universe?

                  How about building tunnels to help with congested roads?


                  Those are all things that liberals use to love. Only problem is that liberals now hate Musk because he called out their bat-shit craziness.

                      That's all good stuff, but the problem with idolising people is it makes you blind to the not so good stuff.

                      For example. Musk claims to be a free speech absolutist, his words. But he has a team on twitter searching for accounts that criticise or make jokes about him and cancel them. And you are just fine with that.
                      He also expects people to work 50, 60, 80 hours a week because he fired half the employees. And you praised it. If Musk wants to work those hours, let him, he can't mandate it on others.

                        You didn't answer any of my questions. But that's par for the course for you.

                        Anyway, Elon isn't forcing anyone to do anything. And he's not asking them to do it forever. He has a vison for Twitter and if the old regime isn't all in, they're free to go. It doesn't make Elon a bad man. You hated him long before any of this. The exact moment you started hating him is when he said he's switching from democrat to republican.

                          Seriously dude, I don't hate anyone. Just because I am pointing out someone's failings doesn't mean I hate them.
                          Why would you think I hate him? A person's politics are unimportant. Character and integrity are far more important. You show neither, but there are also liberals lacking those traits.

                            More of your hypocrisy on full display.

                            You said that I idolize Elon. I say that you hate him. I'll play your little game but don't come crying like a little bitch when the tables are turned.

                            Who has more integrity, Musk or Trudeau? Try to answer a question for once.

                              Oh brother. I have answered many times more questions from you than you have answered from me, but I don't really care about that, it's just more proof of your lack of character.

                              You are trying to get me to compare a lying politician to a lying businessman. Lol
                              I would have to say that the lying politician, trudeau, has slightly less integrity than the lying businessman, Musk.

                                I think it's established fact that Elon has done more for mankind than Trudeau.
