Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Fucking lol. Bet this is just another way for Elon to grift some more sweet sweet DoD money. Suddenly the army is going to "need" 10k milspec cybertrucks at $10million a pop. You know, for efficiency.
Eventually Trump's gonna go in front of the media and say something like "We gotta get new missiles. Elon's making new missiles - future generation hyper 100 times sound so very, very fast. $500 billion contract to HyperMissile..." There's no information about HyperMissile anywhere. But HyperMissile.com was created the day before and the only thing on the website is a ginormous poop emoji.

Ah, Musk has fired me as head of marketing and hired you instead. Drat.
It's so easy to predict what Musk will name his things lmao
Surprised Tesla isn't renamed AutoX and when he does planes AeroX.
WeaponX is also extremely Musky for a weapons division.
SeX for reproduction
Wasn’t that the naming scheme?
Model S
Model 3
Model X
Model Y
Edit: I had no idea Tesla actually made the model Y since it looks exactly like the model X but is bigger
Wait is that for real? So cringe
So much commitment to a shitty joke and then the shitty website isnt even formatted properly for a payoff.
The American version of the V2 rocket killing more people in production than it did in combat.
Slave laborers. I just needed to be a bit pedantic.

I wanted to leave a Wikipedia link and quote here but pages had no easily quotable stuff. I do not want to link to a
.milpage but it's convenient.As if "forced labor" wasn't creepy enough - the following paragraph makes things even creepier. I wonder if that was intentional. Hey, they might have used ~~slaves~~ forced labor but there was significant technological advancement!
...i think season two is on disney+ in april...
First you need the period of Elon Musk being publicly anti-grift until he realises it's a grift and he can get in on it. He's gonna go out and talk about the mic being corrupt and then, in a few days, when someone has explained it with enough bazinga terms, will he understand that yes it is corrupt and would you like some money Elon?
Then he's gotta fuck up the grift somehow. Tale as old as time.
Sadly, as much as I hope for really funny things to happen, this will be what he does.
