It's always projection.
Start asking MAGA who paid them to be MAGA.
My payment is Musk's tears.
Dude literally tried to buy elections. Even if they were paid (they aren't) he would have no right to complain
Remember that it's always projection with these fucks.
HE is paying people to steal the election for him & paying people to play games for him so he can claim he is the best
so he assumes others must be doing the same...NO.
I wonder if any of those people on that call had the guts to point this out to him. These people are never called up on their bullshit and that's how they get ahead.
He doesn't get that most of us aren't bigoted pieces of shit and we hate him for his actions. He probably doesn't know what righteous anger is. So our protests have got to be paid for. More projection from a right winger.
During a call with investors Tuesday, Musk blamed “paid” and “very organized” protesters for his electric company’s remarkably weak earnings so far in 2025. “They’re obviously not going to admit that the reason that they’re protesting is because they’re receiving fraudulent money, or that they’re the recipients of wasteful largesse, they’re gonna come up with some other reason, but that is the real reason for the protests,” said the billionaire.
Y’all were gettin’ paid to protest? That girl who got caught setting fire to Teslas, she was paid too? All the people protesting.. paid? Uh huh That’s my first nope 🙂↔️
My second nope: you literally have been paying people to vote in your favor.
He’s so full of it 🤣 He’s regurgitating his own excrement and totally dim to the absurdity or irony of what he’s defecating.

Projection. It's always projection with these cunts.
I need to figure out who's giving out all this free money because I'd really like for some to come my way.
Paid by who?
Paid by who, you little dust bowl
"The elite wealthy who secretly run the whole government"
Oh, you mean you? YOU MEAN YOU ELON???
George Soros, obviously. He's their favorite rich bogeyman.
Dipshit immigrant buys a presidency and then cries about "paid" protests.
Loooooooooser.
Richest man on Earth whines about other people being able to afford to buy protestors?
Funny that's how he thinks immediately, that movements can be bought and sold... almost makes you wonder huh...
Leon Hitler can piss in the wind.
He believes his own lies? Not that surprising really.
That's rich coming from someone that bought Trump the election.
Describing the left as "very organized" is the funniest thing I've read all year.
That should have investors chomping at the bit to have him replaced.
Hating Musk is one of the few things we can all agree on.
"They all showed up at around the same time." = "very organized" :D
that’s much more organized than any leftist group i’ve ever seen
So, like the usual double-speak rhetoric from this party, just gotta invert what he says:
Elmo Muskrat pays for protestors, and is sad that his paid protestors aren't as effective as real ones.
I hope some of these investors tell him why he's getting such hate. Maybe he'll listen to them.
sore loser.
Great photo, he looks like a frog
Who the fuck has all this money to pay for protesters?
Wait it must be the same people who can afford to give away drugs in Halloween candy....
Time to wake up, Mister Musk! Wake up and smell the coffee!
I dream of musk reduced to working at a cell phone accessory kiosk in a forgotten mall, peddling glittering iPhone cases and rambling about how he made comedy legal again.
The richest guy in the world, and he is so horny for any love and respect that the smell of desperation fills any room he is in. You can even see it anytime he makes a media appearance. The guy actually exudes a breath-taking level of anti-charisma. He's truly revolting to anyone who sees him.
All that money, and he has to rent wombs to manufature his DNA Storage Units/ Organ Donors/ Human Shields because no woman will go near him. I've heard his dick doesn't work anyway, due to a botched wiener enlargement surgery.
So he thinks the gamers are his peeps, and they'll love him, right? Nah, all those great toys, and still none of the neighborhood kids want to play with him, because he's so fucking wierd.
It fills me with such glorious schadenfreude to see him demonstrating in real time, the old saying "Money can't buy happiness."
Nah fam, we hate you so much we do it for free. We just want to watch you burn.
How dare you use our tactics against us.
This is the same guy who wanted to buy votes?
So... given the "Every accusation is a confession" rule, what protests do you think he's funded?
He did pay people to vote, which is kinda similar.
But actually way worse, and illegal.
and illegal
Is it? I didn't see any charges or penalties for it.
Paying for votes is definitely illegal, but he may try to claim a lottery isn’t.
However, only politically connected republicans appear to have “won” any of the lotteries Elon held.
Nobody has to pay me to hate you, you fucking fascist loser. I do it pro bono.
He still can't understand that people actually hate him.
Who's paying them? Genuinely, who, in his grandiose delusions, wants his demise and is paying people to protest, just to lower his stock prices. Who does he actually think is "out to get him".
George Soros, maybe?
Just remember, every accusation is a confession. Musk pays protestors, so he believes others do as well.
He’s conflating paid and organized in an attempt to make them synonymous. Basically, anyone you ever see holding a sign is just an actor and their message is not worth acknowledgement. Don’t think too hard about how much you’re getting utterly fucked, Billy. That’s what a “globalist” would do!
Sounds to me like he’s lying to investors about the true nature of a risk to the company
Than stop paying for people to show up on your side and then you won’t have a problem. The people against you are doing it for free.
His narcissism won't let him admit that no one likes him. He's a Prince, his mother told him so.
Pretty crazy how the richest man alive can't out pay the protestors current employers. So even in his narrative, he still ain't paying people.for.shit
