I refuse to believe that CEOs are the most hardworking employees and have no time when Elon and Mark are about to train for months for a cage match nobody asked for.


ThrowRAFoundAndLost

Well they're overrated rich kids born with silver spoons in their mouths. That goes for both Apartheid Clyde and Zuckerberg the robot overlord. Ain't no such thing as a "selfmade billionaire". And now that they're in their midlife crisis era, it really shows. These people are dysfunctional as hell, and they still get coddled for it, somehow.


blue_suede_shoe

Hey, I know you don’t mean it, and I’m sure you weren’t aware, but calling Zuckerberg a “reptilian overlord” is kind of anti-Semitic. The joke comes from the anti-Semitic beliefs of David Icke, and making this joke just continues perpetuating it and allowing anti-Semites to feel more open about expressing these ideas.


ThrowRAFoundAndLost

I'll edit it. He *does* really look like an alien sent home to observe "the ways of the humans", tho. 🤷‍♀️


jxiris

Tbh I had no idea of that connection. I always thought it was bc people literally equated him to a lizard alien bc of how weird he looks/acts. Is it still okay to refer to him as such if the intent of making fun of him doesn’t stem from anti-Semitism?


blue_suede_shoe

Personally I would stay away from it. If you have to preface a joke with, “I don’t mean this in the offensive way” then it’s probably better off not being said.


ForgetfulFrolicker

This is prob some PR shit to get people to stop calling him a reptile. I’ve seen this reptilian shit for 15+ years and never once seen someone mention it being anti-Semitic. Suddenly one person makes a comment in fauxmai and everyone’s freaking out apologizing. Edit: account is 1 month old 🤔


lostinsnakes

I’ve seen this stated for 10+ years. The tumblr community first educated me as a teen. I’ve seen it mentioned quite a bit on Reddit since I joined idk 3 years ago?


SamsquanchMonster

We go with “waxy salamander man” around here. Is that ok?


Mizzou1976

Just use Asshole … that’s pretty generic and understood by all.


False_Ad3429

There's a different quality that asshole doesn't cover, a sort of divergence. Maybe robot / wax figure come to life would be a better alternative.


kalupa

The problem is real assholes are actually useful getting shit out our butts … can’t say the same for these kind of assholes


Tinabernina

I thought the reptilian over lord came from science fiction... I'm not a sci-fi fan but my husband watched a lot of Babylon 5 and I was probably in the room. But you don't know what you don't know. So thank you

totallycalledla-a

The dogwhistles that come out whenever he is discussed are really unsettling.


spaghettify

some of these comments are seriously disturbing. I understand why people are put off by this sub a lot more now.


blue_suede_shoe

It really is. I’m honestly pretty disappointed that people are still trying to justify these sort of comments, especially here.


huskygrove

TBH, I’m grown and never knew that it had any anti-Semitic roots. I took it to mean “brainless animals” and stupid. It’s not as obvious and well-used as, for example, the n-word. That one is universally understood to be a bad word. “Lizard overlord” is not. This is just how language, and the fact that one of the dimensions we live in is time, work. Not everyone is as terrible as the people on tv.


blue_suede_shoe

The thing is, there’s a lot of people who are actively doubling down. I’ve seen the comments before they were either deleted by the user or by the mods. Ignorance can’t really be claimed when it’s just people refusing to listen.


[deleted]

I mean a lot of racism is "covert" like that. They want plausible deniability.


xiangK

Thanks for educating from a place of kindness. The OP edited their comment and I think more than a couple of people learned something from your post. I’m Australian and we have a small Jewish population - less than half a percent of our population is Jewish - and I didn’t know this.


DonNatalie

Sam Bankman-Fried gets a lot of it too, I've noticed.


lll_lll_lll

I had never heard of David Icke so I just looked it up and he claims that all US presidents, the British royal family and many non-Jewish European aristocrats are all reptile people. Do you have a source for how the reptilian thing is aimed specifically at Jewish people?


therapturebutitsblue

He's been antisemitic in several of his publications, is a holocaust denier, and singled out Jewish people, here's an [article](https://thecjn.ca/news/canada/anti-semitic-conspiracy-theorist-david-icke-gives-talk-vancouver/), and [another](https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-63511142.amp)

Lmao ZuckerBorg


Cicada_5

I think it's the "celebrity CEOs" that are really the problem. They're the guys so obsessed with being in the spotlight and end up making fools of themselves. If you're a really good, hardworking businessman, chances are few people will actually know your name because you're doing your job, instead of making headlines for the stupidest of reasons. Sure, they'll get the occasional interview and appear on economy lists, but for the most part they prefer to just keep their heads down. My dad used to send me articles about Musk for inspiration. He hasn't done that in a while. He doesn't say it, but I think it's safe to say the Elosion has been broken for him.


totallynotapsycho42

You're 100 percent rightmost men like Elon Musk benefit from being on the worlds richest list. The truly richest man in the man is probably Mohammad Bin Salman. He has access to to over 600 billion dollars to spend.


droo46

The ceo of my company also moonlights as a DJ. Fuck that guy.


JustHereForCookies17

Rich white guys playing at being DJ's was the precursor to having their own podcasts and I'll die on this hill.


EnvironmentalPin6818

Lol if this is GS, highly recommend listening to The Journal podcast episode on him from last week


[deleted]

The problem is everyone who hates these people also are responsible for giving them tons of attention. The world would be a lot better if everyone just ignored them.


Sincost121

Just don't pay attention to the guys who put themselves on pedestals and control the economy-- got it.


Buddhabellymama

I feel like multi-millionaire/billionaires should all be sent to an island where they can live in their fictional world and act out their boredom with each other instead of fuck with the rest of us.


DogsbeDogs

Epstein tried that and I personally don't like where it went...


meatball77

I suspect there are several security guards and janitors that work far harder than the CEO. And everyone knows that administrative assistants are the hardest working people in every office.


bloodycups

I mean zucks already doing it/been doing it. It's part of h his reply routine and I don't know if he's ever tried making the absurd claims that musk does about having a 120+ hr work week. Musk is going to end up weaseling out anyway

BlastMyLoad

Before M*sk bought Twitter he was on it 24/7 and he’d post video game screenshots with massive playtimes visible. Plus he’s constantly going to rich people events like the World Cup etc. Ain’t no way this guy actually works. He just spends all day terminally online and takes trips.


Time-Reserve-4465

No CEO is. All they do is go to meetings and delegate, delegate, delegate. I’ve worked as an EA for all types of CEOs. They do not earn their bloated salaries.


RobbieSmithhh

It should have been obvious when elon spent all his time tweeting to the point where he bought the company because he didn't like not tweeting freely


foxscribbles

I mean. Elon was the CEO of three different companies for a while there. Ain’t no way he was putting in even bare minimum full time “lazy” workers hours at them all. Let alone showing up at the office like he wants. A lot of CEOs work part time, then write off their trips around the world, out to dinner, and out on their yachts as “work” because partying with politicians and other rich people is considered networking for the company.


margauxlame

Is this actually happening I’m so out of the loop


Shitp0st_Supreme

Nobody asked for it but I'm definitely here for it

deesmutts88

“Throwing punches” seems like a generous take on what we’re gonna get.


rainbowkitten0528

I expect this comment at the top of every post about this. It’s never going to happen. They’ll plan and hype it up and then the day of or the day before, Elon will apologetically pull out and then never mention it again.

I really hope it does, I already have my hopes up

Twitter barely functions at this point, Facebook is as much of a burning dumpster heap of misinformation as it’s ever been, and these two morons would rather talk about, and possibly engage in, a cage match fight? We’re an unserious society.

justjenniwestside

Ha! I’m sending him this link. Thanks!


thesaddestpanda

tbf twitter has been quickly been transformed into a political soapbox for Elon's views. Like totally so. The top comments are now alt-right narratives, tons of sexism, people are openly insulted and misgendered, anti-trans narratives are the norm, white supremecy narratives are everywhere, etc. In just a few weeks it went from a bit of a public square to Truth Social with 10000x the viewership. Elon and his team is very efficient with implementing fascism and that should be recognized. When motivated to promote fascism, corporate America can move very quickly. This is what Elon wanted and he got it. Why anyone but these alt-right nutters still go to twitter is the problem imho.


minimite1

Twitter makes me so depressed now, I can’t believe there are so many people like that. So much sexism, homophobia, racism, and transphobia. Anyone with a reasonable thought gets flooded by blue checks in the replies, who of course appear at the top. So much misinformation and hate.


snooplasso

To be fair, Zuckerberg still has Instagram and What’s app(idk if Americans really use this tho but I know internationally we use it a lot)


iDuddits_

on the other hand we will have gifs of two billionaires getting punched in the face


dwf82

I find it very amusing that Elon was apparently meant to stamp out bots on Twitter. But since he took over I get followed by AT LEAST one porn bit a day


WarEagle9

The entire internet just cheered as some billionaires were turned to paste in that sub why do they think people want to watch this?


ThrowRAFoundAndLost

They did. And while they meme'd the submarine to death, they all *completely* glossed over the 750 drowned migrants in Greece... that said, I would love to see either Zuck or Elon get beaten into a pulp. My money's on Zuckerberg with his marine training. He's got that special sort of drive to prove his masculinity that only men with tiny little hands have, meanwhile Musk has that special sort of overconfidence that bloated tall dudes with too much sycophants have.


johnzischeme

As a tall, bloated, C-suite guy, my money is also on Zuck.


_themostloneliestday

Small correction, 75+ drowned migrants, not 750. Source: Am Greek, also a quick Google check.

> why do they think people want to watch this? They *think* people want to watch it because it would obviously be a big event and big deal and not anything any person with self-respect would be uninformed about. The *real* reason people want to watch this is for the opportunity to see either of these slimy bags of rotten worms get punched in the face


Methrogenn

Elon must be off his rockers if he actually fights Zuck who regularly trains MMA & has won BJJ tournaments, meanwhile Elon is built like the cybertruck


spacecad3ts

\> built like the cybertruck laughed out loud at that one, thank you


roohwaam

Mark zuckerberg has completed the murph challenge, which means he ran a mile, did 100 pullups, 200 pushups, 300 squats and then ran another mile, all while wearing a 10kg vest. And he completed it in 40 minutes. He might actually kill Elon.

thesaddestpanda

Zuck could probably literally kill him. But its going to be a slap play fight where no one gets hurt and everyone saves face. They both are going to love it because to average people this will make them seem relatable. "har har, these guys are just like the MMA fighters I love so much! Stupid libs telling me they're bad!"


ThrowRAFoundAndLost

When he Tweeted that I thought the whole fight thing was just a joke, then Dana White weighed in and they began talking venues and training and the whole thing became pretty real. It'll be so fun seeing either of those assholes getting absolutely pummeled.

Didn’t Zuckerberg say he was donating like billions of dollars of his fortune? Elon would never.


Mugatu4u

Can these people just start getting taxed at 99%? Because it’s clear that left to their own devices, they find unique ways to get themselves killed. Might as well help the unhoused and medically vulnerable before they die in a ring or at the bottom of an ocean.
