What's great about this, and Stephen Fry is brilliant, is not that he's absolving Musk, or that he's criticizing Tesla, but that it is an argument likely leading to Elon Musk protesting,

'No, my cars are good enough that I can be a Nazi!'

See what I enjoy about this comment is all things considered there's a high likelihood you will live past the age of 60 at which point I hope younger people then call you a piece of shit on the daily simply because of your age. LOL

The probability is that, as you age, your ability to change you attitudes in order to keep up will slow down to the point where you will seem regressive and problematic to 20yo children when you are 60.

The era that my parents grew up in would seem awful to most people now, but my parents were unaware that there were problems, and they have a hard time seeing a lot of them now.

I don't know about you, but that sounds miserable. And what makes you think that you will be excluded?

[–] whoisearth@lemmy.ca 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Shhh that's not important now. My goal is to outlive all of you, that's my solace.

[–] teslasaur@lemmy.world 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

But. Then you would be the 60 year old asshole? Are you thick or did you not think this through?

[–] whoisearth@lemmy.ca 0 points 1 month ago

I revel in being the 60 year old asshole. 13 more years!

Did you really miss what I was saying there by that much?

[–] teslasaur@lemmy.world 0 points 1 month ago

He probably said something reasonable that they disagreed with 😄

[–] AWittyUsername@lemmy.world 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

He said sexual abuse victims should grow up and stop feeling sorry for themselves.

He jumped on the "I'm a Jew " bandwagon, in order to deflect criticism of Israel's actions in Gaza.

Anti trans JK Rowling supporter.

Goddammit. Why is no celebrity available to like anymore? I guess it's true, we should not idolize anyone. Everyone is a piece of shit in some way or another, and to some level.

Except Keanu Reeves. He's literally Jesus Christ. ❤️🔥😭

I don't have full context, but he seems to be transphobic, or possibly trans exclusionary may be more accurate.

To put the video in short: Essentially gets asked if he still supports Stonewall even though they support trans kids and speak out against TERFs (worded much differently) and he says no I don't support them any more, calling it nonsensical, shameful, and sad.

Thanks for the added context. That's what I guessed based on comments, but wasn't certain.

I think being a transphobe makes you a piece of shit, so you’re wrong actually. lol

[–] teslasaur@lemmy.world 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Man, you drank some kool aid didn't you? If someone doesn't think like you, then they're an asshole, in spite of an entire life of not being an asshole. Cool cool

Perfect comeback there bud. You definitely made me say "shucks" while I snapped my fingers in a dramatic fashion 😘

[–] Jericho_Kane@lemmy.org 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

[–] teslasaur@lemmy.world 0 points 1 month ago
