    Has anyone done the math on if Musk would give all his money away to all U.S. citizens how much would that be to each one?

    Or even Musk, Gates and Bezos combined?

    Update: A bot did the math: $723 and $1535 But after the cut from lawyers it should be about $8

          I think his point was that it would be better if the money was given to a poorer population.

            Absolutely asinine argument. The original poster picked USA because they’re both American citizens.

            Just as simple as that.

        If you genuinely think like this I’d say you’re projecting from a golden toilet.

            I am guessing you never had to interact with someone going through a tough time? Not everyone has it easy like you mate.

                USA people die from hunger all the time. I have also seen “literally people dying from hunger” in USA.

          Had to read it three times all the while telling myself : what am I missing ? …before catching on and coming here to see the comments !
          Upvotes were very high so there had to be something.

        Because the people who didn’t get the joke are going, “Ohh!”

        Those of us who did, we appreciate you explaining quickly before the thread degenerated. Plus you were concise, not pedantic or condescending.

        Happened to me on Reddit all the time. Had a comment that imo was a goddamned hilarious gem and it gets +27

        Then I just write some throwaway trash that gets hundreds or thousands. Couldn’t make it happen if I tried

      Troll / jokester. They’re using a picture of and a name based on Zhuge Liang aka Kongming or Koumei (and yes, that one anime from a few years back is based on him), regarded as one of the greatest tacticians of the Chinese Three Kingdoms period, maybe one of the greatest tacticians ever.

      And the profile picture is based on Zhuge as depicted in Koei-Tecmo’s Dynasty Warriors series, though I am not sure which one in the series. Quite possibly the sixth, based on my research.

      So yeah, not only is the guy making a variation on a common joke, he’s basically one step away from having an anime profile picture.

        So idk if you know but this guy is a fairly reputable gaming journalist/leaker, not even close to a troll. Also he’s literally making fun of Elon in the tweet.
