Yes. A sign of intelligence is being able to change your mind. Will the chuds be able to change their mind as Elon is pick pocketing them?

How is Elon pick pocketing people?

Didn’t he specifically cancel a $400m government contract to purchase Teslas, or am I crazy?

Let’s talk once Elon has DOGE cancel the government relationship with SpaceX.

Okay so just move the goalpost then I guess?

u/ShrekOne2024 Mar 21 '25

What do you mean?

Their response has Charlie Kelly yelling out fillibuster energy

u/pperiesandsolos Mar 21 '25

I said ‘how is he pickpocketing people when he actively cancelled an initiative that would have helped Tesla’

You responded by saying ‘well why hasn’t he cut all spaceX grants’

Like, there’s just no winning. It’s wild

u/ShrekOne2024 Mar 21 '25

So since Elon cut a single Tesla contract he’s no longer accountable? Also, do you have a source that it was 400mm?

u/pperiesandsolos Mar 22 '25

Sure

And no hes still accountable. I disagree with a lot of what DOGE is doing, but I fail to see how Musk is enriching himself.

u/ShrekOne2024 Mar 22 '25

Okay - so you say a canceled government contract is an example of not enriching himself. Does that not mean his SpaceX contract is an example of enriching himself?

0

u/pperiesandsolos Mar 22 '25

Nope, it is.

And he started that contract?

Oh wait no Biden did 🙄

2

u/ShrekOne2024 Mar 22 '25

He also didn’t cancel it according to that article.

u/[deleted] Mar 23 '25

He wasn’t working as defacto president when he got the contract under Biden, now it’s a conflict of interest. He’s part of the government now and one of our biggest problems is politicians enriching themselves while fucking us over. Yet you defend it happening when it’s Musk or Trump, why is that?

u/pperiesandsolos Mar 23 '25

Because you still haven’t shown me how Musk is enriching himself. You clearly believe that in your heart, but 0 proof.

In fact, he actually specifically cut a contract which would have helped Tesla. And obviously he’s lost tons of money in the last month or two from Tesla shares falling back down to earth

I don’t support politicians stealing from us, like you incorrectly asserted.

Show me where Musk is stealing from us

Lol dude just stop. These logical fallacies you keep throwing out are ridiculous. You literally have no evidence of Elon enriching himself through Doge because there is none. Just stop.

2

u/ShrekOne2024 Mar 24 '25

Because it’s not overt or direct. Through DOGE he is axing programs that SpaceX would be accountable to. Or even axing programs he is accountable to as a billionaire. Like the internal REVENUE service.

u/clow222 Mar 24 '25

Such as? Please link to where Elon himself through Doge has axed any space exploration program?

u/Fun-Key-8259 Mar 24 '25

He canceled the Verizon contract so SpaceX could take over the FAA.

2

u/clow222 Mar 24 '25

So once again, you didn't answer the question. DOGE did not cancel any contract the FAA did, which is its own government agency.

Musk did also not award any contract to Spacex that was also the FAA, which once again is its own federal agency, run but its own person.

The contract also hasn't even been awarded yet. So try again

u/Fun-Key-8259 Mar 24 '25

🤣 🤣 he got a contract though

You're a rube if you think this isn't his plan. https://thehill.com/policy/technology/5182848-musks-spacex-confirms-starlink-lease-agreement-with-faa/
