Elon on Joe Rogan

[Wildabeest]

If you are pro tariff. OK but you should be able to acknowledge these facts.
You should want them implemented slowly and strategically. To give time for domestic production. To enact a lumber tariff without the ability to produce domestic lumber is simply a tax on citizens. We need time to build sawmills. Otherwise we will have to just pay a higher price to import.
Steel/ aluminum is the same we need time to build mills and factories.
To choose to have tariff wars with multiple countries at once is stupidity. They know we are going to be fighting multiple wars at once. We will be hurting.
Choosing to be attacked from multiple directions at once is bad negotiating and a terrible war plan.

You watched the address? Its ALL great, with just a few inconveniences.
Like I said, I appreciate action, but am concerned about collateral damage.
The market isn't happy with smoke and mirrors.

There should be more concern about Elon’s Ketamine use for depression.

Based on everything that's occurred over the past few months, Tesla may be better off if he's no longer associated with the company. It's getting ugly.

The “ mission accomplished” speech for Ol’ Donald?

Did we hit a point where it's now just memes and irrelevant convo from the original post?
I'd say we are probably at the point to take Old Yeller out back, unless we can get back on topic.

Our last president didn’t know when he was shitting his pants. President Elon’s mental state is of little concern…

My post has nothing to do with supporting Biden. It points out the serious concern about drug use that effects the brain. Elon has demonstrated drug use publicly on Rogan and admits using ketamine.

Haven't listened to this one yet.
I like his setup (Rogan's) as it lets people talk, it will become obvious if the person is a kook, reasonable, somewhere in between.
It is definitely more insightful than 30 second snippets, well edited "interviews", etc that the "real news" puts out that most people use for information.

That's also why podcasts are great.... if it sucks hit the skip/forward button.

This is true I agree. Unfortunately it also opens the door to intelligent and charismatic manipulation. Cult leaders can't hook you in 30sec. Sometimes you just have to ask yourself (what's the motivation here) My ears hear it's raining but my nose smells piss.

 

[cusecat04]

Much rather have to engage my brain and not get "brain washed" vs the other option where its just believe us, we are the "news."
I think the idea of "what's the motivation here" has to be applied in all information gathering.

Not sure he's a cult leader.... supposedly spreading his DNA via invitro vs the old fashioned fun way.... sounds to weird to be a cult leader.

Probably safe to lock just about every thread after the 3rd post these days. I miss hunting season. At least tag season is around the corner and the NR complaints will change it up a bit. Might get to wait for 10 posts before it becomes political!

Wouldn't count on it.
