Has this happened?

Bunch of Harkonnen scumbags.

Because they’re in a race against each other that they can never win. Elon Musk may have gotten a little wiggle room from his competition when SpaceX went public but you can bet your ass (cause I know all of you don’t have a dollar to waste) Larry Page is running his brain ragged trying to think about how he becomes the most powerful one. It’s just a pissing contest and unfortunately they’re really careless

To billionaires money is just like a high score in an arcade cabinet. And they’re also evil.

I ask myself the same question. It feels like such an empty life. More and more money that they would need many lifetimes to be able to spend, which will be worth absolutely useless if and when they end up fucking up the whole world. It doesn’t make sense at all. Yes, it’s nice to have money to buy whatever you want, I won’t argue that, but come on. At this point I’m leaning towards them just having so much fucking ego that they can’t stop anymore. If anyone has another possible explanation, I’d really like to know.

Well they probably are poor and thus have less means to defend themselves.

Its only illegal if someone prosecutes them. That isn’t going to happen before the purge.

Since when has illegality stopped parasites rich people?

Specifically which part is illegal? Is it lack of planning permission? Is it an environmental law? Etc.

Not really. If he has permissions for a temporary install, it is above board. He just needs to get a permanent permit before moving to a long term generator instead of temporary fixes.

Should the permissions have been blocked? Now that’s a diff question

While I hate being cold to peoples suffering, didn’t most of them vote for the face eating leopard party. They asked for their corporate overlords personal profit to be protected from their lungs, their environment, any consideration. They asked for billionaires to be above the law.

They are clearly being wronged here, there should be heavy fines, shutdowns and even jail time but my empathy is in short supply

in one of the most racist state missisipi.

Mississippi black communities, not only are they SOL they’re about to be raided by local law enforcement.

There was an incident in South Korea some years ago where a greedy developer built an apartment building with substandard concrete; the building later collapsed and killed a few hundred people. The guy was tried and convicted and as he was being frog-marched to his sentencing hearing, friends and relatives of the victims were coming out of the crowd and beating him while his escorts just looked away.

It’s really enjoyable to imagine that happening here in the US, but then it’s enjoyable to imagine winning the lottery, too.

People like this would be shot. People would group together and hire gunmen to get rid of criminals in the old west.

Of course their security was just a few body guards and that’s it. Nobody was living in high tech buildings separate from everyone else.

Vietnam would have had him executed by now

It’s still punishable by death! Not legally, officially, but very much in reality!

Sounds like just anothwr day in the USA

Yea I’m not sure why this isn’t the normal way to think. The logic of “they are just doing a job and getting theirs” doesn’t hold up for everything so where is the line for these people?

Oh shucks i see you’ve signed up to drag me to the death camp! Not your fault! You’re just getting yours! Now let me be polite and handcuff myself!

We need to be more serious.

Yes. I’m pretty sure it’s a contractor’s job to get the permits. Is it not?

Not removing blame from Elon. Just smearing the blame around cause all those fucks are responsible

At some point participation is complicity but unless we make it hostile to work with, for, or in the interests of these inhuman monsters, people won’t know not to. Labour is not in a position to know what work is illegal or not.

Working for the wealthy needs to be seen as a threat against society. It’s deeply anti-social. We have no way to differentiate them in their range of evil, and they made it impossible to find out. So at some point, to protect the working, poor and middle classes, if you’re wealthy, you’re a threat. Don’t want to be treated as a threat? Give up your wealth and join the peasantry. We need to police our own to protect ourselves from the threat of wealth.

I agree, Elon is not at fault here. All he did was finance it with enough money to convince people to ignore the law.

No, but Julia Roberts and Meryl Streep will win hella Oscars playing the plucky white women who “take them down.”

training wheels of justice

My city finally got a court order against a billionaire for unpermitted building that allows us to bulldoze his house. Just took 7 years in court to get the ruling…

And instead of bulldozing the house, we were able to use the court order to strongarm them into fixing their site so it no longer damages the environment, their neighbors, or city infrastructure.

The upside for the city there (aside from having to bid out and manage a major project in-house) is that we get a lot more tax revenue from a house that is brought into compliance than a scarred, demolished site.

Musk will power those spinning wheels himself with his natural gas turbines.

/s

Don’t worry, it’s only affecting a poor area. No billionairs are affected.

keeps treating regulations like optional DLC

He, like any shillionaire, sees people as NPCs.

That’s why he was so enthusiastic to kill infants, children, teens and adults by cutting USAID.

If he’s ever admitted to a hospital, I genuinely hope that he’s left to suffer and rot.

it’s more turbines, not sure if it’s the same site or another

No, Grok has been classified by the DOJ as vital national security infrastructure and is not allowed to be shut down.

No,that was portable generator trucks that were not ‘installed’. This is new.

This would be a great time for an injunction to force the data center to shut down all of those turbines until the matter has been resolved legally.

Of course you need to be able to pay for a lawyer who convinces a judge to pass that injunction.

Other methods are also acceptable.

Or at least sabotage the facility?

As Trump is learning with Iran, if you make enemies by the millions, you risk awakening a plumber.

Seriously…

If we are to learn from history, and the successes of various resistance groups in Europe when occupied by the Nazis, we would learn that targetting the higher ups and figureheads don’t work. What DOES work, is targeting the workers - the average people who facilitate the machine. When the architect of the holocaust was assassinated, it only sped things up and made it worse. So instead resistance groups started doing drive bys on average ol’ Deborah’s and Johns who was employed to operate the Nazi bureaucracy, do the paperwork, doing the monitoring, doing the deliveries, average folk who worked for them - as destabilizing the machinery is far more effective than targeting figureheads. As leftists know so well - it’s the workers that do all the work.

So rather than shooting Musk, it will genuinely be more effective to shoot at Tesla/SpaceX/X employees until they stop showing up to work. Same goes for banks, private equity firms, hedge funds, healthcare insurance companies, etc. They don’t even have security detail. There’s a million other jobs they could be doing, real work like helping to rebuild, instead they choose to make these demons dreams come true in exchange for a financial bribe. As my atheist father would say about religion - “I fear not the cult leader, but the millions who follow them.” Workers and employees of these companies are just as fair, and empirically more effective targets than the billionaire CEOs.

…In a videogame, of course. I would never incite self-defence violence.

Shoot him into space on one of his or Bezos’ rockets. Watch him explode as a result of the very thing he tried to accomplish.

It needs to die ugly. All the musk children need to die or be sterilized. Everything it cares about needs to end, and be thrown into wherever we decide to dispose of used nuclear fuel.

Along with any dipshit using AI to begin with. As much of a complete piece of shit as musk is (and he is a HUGE piece of shit), the end users of this shit share in the blame too. Any idiot using grok or whatever the fuck anthropic call their horseshit are culpable.
