    What are you talking about? I think he’s a lunatic, but he does seem to be having a lot of fun.

      I get what you’re saying. People seem to view your comment as an endorsement of Musk, which it clearly isn’t. But if I had Musk money, I would love to tell a government to fuck off, because there are plenty of righteous reasons to do so, as opposed to just stroking your ego as Musk is doing.

        I know a guy who is quite rich.

        Doesn’t much care about speed limits because every time he loses his licence for 3 months he fucks off to another country for a while while he can’t legally drive here.

        Its kind of funny.

          Exactly why fines should be proportional to your wealth/wages rather than a random fee that hurts the middle class and poor immensely.

            Yeah, I do agree on this in general.

            Just cause this guy is a good dude for a rich guy doesn’t mean the system doesn’t suck.

        TBH if I had money I’d be minding my own business and using it to improve lives, but I understand the fantasy. Like playing Saints Row II, its fun but I wouldnt actually get in a car and hold somebody at gunpoint in real life.

      See… That’s the thing. I don’t think he is having fun.

      Think about it. The man has more money than he could ever spend. But he’s so deeply insecure he is compelled to stay involved in these petty piss matches. And it infuriates him when people didn’t treat him like Earth’s special boy. He could be doing anything else.

      I think he’s a terribly unhappy person.

        You make a good point. He does seem to get genuinely upset relatively often rather than just laughing as he trolls the world.

      but he does seem to be having a lot of fun.

      With all the money he has and all the things he could be doing, he chooses to be glued to twitter. No, he doesn’t seem to be having fun. Not in the slightest. MySpace Tom is what having fun looks like. Musk is what trying desperately to look like you are having fun looks like.
