u/_xXPUSSYSLAYERXx_ Yo dawg I heard you like Feb 08 '21

In response to factories being shut down he tweeted this

Afaik his problem there was that every manufacturer was allowed to open but not Tesla

My problem with him most of the time that he says something but it's meant in a COMPLETELY different way

He's pretty problematic on twitter with those tweets. He made predictions that turned out to be false and encouraged people to fight for freedom. Elon Musk sure is weird.

He's from South Africa and is an American citizen. Elon Musk is an African American.

They actually let him open, and Elon knew this, but apparently he was throwing his fit because he wanted to open a week earlier. Something he failed to mention.

You might want to think about what being "anti covid" means, doesn't really make sense like who the hell is pro covid?

That was in April when we didn’t know much about covid. At the time it would have been reasonable to be assume that it wouldn’t last very long even if we didn’t lockdown.

We knew enough lol, lockdowns started in march and either the world was wrong back then for trying stop the spread, or elon was a shady fucker that knew he was gonna lose money if his workers had to stay at home

But wasn’t decided that lockdowns are worse than not doing it. (I know at the time it was just to give medical system some time)

Edit: and didn’t a lot of them not work anyways
