Elon Musk issued a curt rebuke of ketamine abuse allegations after a viral clip of his erratic behavior at a dinner recirculated online.
The clip—taken in March during a visit to Donald Trump’s Bedminster golf club in New Jersey—shows Musk balancing spoons at a dinner table while one of his baby mamas, Shivon Zilis, watches in silent concern.
At the time, X user and “retired army medic” Molly Ploofkins tweeted the clip with the caption, “Musk playing with his silverware while tripping on ketamine at Bedminster.”
Everyone likes to laugh at Turnip and Muskrat for being, talking and acting like idiots … which they are … but enough of a country voted to have this clown in office, who then selected this unelected monkey to run their country.
Who’s the idiot in this scenario? The idiot doing idiot things … or the people who made it all possible and allowed the idiots to gain power?
It’s going to take a lifetime for me to look at an American as anything ressembling intelligence.
They’re all idiots.
People that voted for Trump are idiots.
People who didn’t vote for anyone are idiots.
Dems who failed to read the room are idiots.
Republicans supporting Trump are idiots.
I think Musk is his own special class of idiot though.
He’s got all the problems of Dr. Manhattan and none of the upsides. Everything bores him and it’s destroying him. Well, couldn’t have happened to a more deserving individual.
I’m an American, and it’s going to take me a lifetime to look at America as anything resembling intelligence.
That’s the thing and something I’ve noticed for many years and in meeting many Americans.
The majority of Americans I’ve met in person were good wholesome people and most of the time I couldn’t tell the difference if they were American or Canadian (unless they had a strong accent from the American south).
It’s when you start talking about politics or religion that things seem to fall apart. There’s a strong Christian ‘identity’, it’s certainly not religious … cult like but not religious.
But in the mix are good natured people with good natured ideas of politics and inclusion … but the loudest most obnoxious ones always seem to win out.
I’ve done my best to not paint all Americans as selfish, ignorant, self absorbed, hateful individuals … but in light of everything that is coming out of the US government, which should represent the ideas and attitudes of a country … it is getting harder and harder to like America or Americans.
I don’t blame you. I grew up here thinking that most people were generally good/decent people. I was propagandized to hell and back and grew up believing that America was as good as it got in the world. Other places (like Canada) weren’t bad, but just but as great as America.
It wasn’t until I left my cult-like religion (Mormonism) at age 18 that I truly started learning more accurate history and exploring other cultures that I realized how deep in the hole I was as a human. I spent 20 years thinking that America was imperfect but had the potential to be better, and to come to terms with it’s thorny past. Obama being elected seemed to prove that potential.
Trump (then Trump 2.0) had destroyed that last illusion and I’m not sure what it would take to rebuild any sense of pride in my country. My entire extended family (as far as I’m aware of) are all in support of what is happening here, and it is stressing any vestige of relationship I had left after leaving their religion all those years ago.
Trust takes years to build, and a moment to lose. America has lost any trust in this moment. It’ll take a lifetime to rebuild at best. My son is in for a harder life because of it and I can’t help feeling guilty
It’s called American Civil Religion.
Mate, the ones I went to school with knew about Thailand, knew about Singapore, but couldn’t point out Malaysia to save their lives.
The idiots are the people who didn’t vote
Well and of course anyone who voted R
Yeah, but according to them, the system and the Dem party forced them to sit it out.
The idiots who allowed it to happen still in denial, still blame the party and the system.
That’s the funniest part about it. “Look at that idiot” you mean your leader, the guy you elected twice? Yeah… What an idiot.
Also worth pointing out that the idiots Trump and Musk are succeeding in their every goal. People loved to laugh at Mush for turning Twitter into shit as if that wasn’t what he was going for in the first place.
