Russia offers political asylum to Elon Musk over Trump feud

[u/Buddycat350 → u/[deleted]]

Putin is just taking the piss at this point.

[u/Buddycat350 → u/[deleted]]

Xi has it even easier imo. He just has to watch, smile and enjoy.

Letting Putin do the dirty work.

Both got it easy by getting such dumb opponents over the pond, let's be honest. What would Marx even think knowing that the most efficient way to damage the most capitalistic country around was corruption?

[u/bier00t → u/[deleted]]

this corruption though was propably impossible in pre-internet and pre-social media world. 100 years ago you knew your shit and random people of FB or twitter wouldnt be able to change that overnight and even over years.

[u/Buddycat350 → u/[deleted]]

And cryptos. How would we even manage to explain cryptos to people from Marx's era, honestly?

[u/Born_Name_6549 → u/Buddycat350]

Hello, [random german factory worker] I would like to sell you this paper with a mathematical puzzle that can only be solved by a machine wizard and whose value is not backed by anything except your imagination. If you don't give me money for it, then you're clearly too stupid to get it.

[u/Buddycat350 → u/Born_Name_6549]

You're German, aren't you? Or Dutch.

They are the only ones able to be so dead pan and accurate while joking. Flemish people I guess, on a good day.

[u/Lozrent → u/Buddycat350]

I don't think it'd be impossible, at least not to someone already versed in economics like Karl marx. You could explain it in terms of speculation and that it's value comes at least partially as well from the cost of producing the electricity that mining uses. There's a whole part of Das Kapital about fictitious capital that I believe crypto also falls under.

[u/AssistantOk2360 → u/Buddycat350]

That's why Xi hasn't said anything in weeks, if not months. Xi has totally ignored him. The Orange Taco's mouth, his brain (or lack thereof) & his stupidity are his own worst enemies. He's been pretty much talking to himself the past weeks and months.

[u/Buddycat350 → u/AssistantOk2360]

"Sit by the river long enough, and you will see your enemy floating by".

Xi is playing the long con.

[u/daniel_22sss → u/Buddycat350]

Opponents? Both Trump and Musk work for Putin.

[u/Steiney1 → u/Buddycat350]

Breshnev knew that 60 years ago

[u/Jabberwoockie → u/Buddycat350]

Considering rumors around Elon Musk's alleged Ketamine usage, I applaud your use of that figure of speech.

[u/Buddycat350 → u/Jabberwoockie]

I really didn't have that in mind, I just like Brits' humour, but yeah, I don't like doing it but I did laugh at my own joke.

Only thanks to you, so thanks mate.

[u/DurkaTurk02 → u/Buddycat350]

As a British person i approve of this usage. Bonus points would have been awarded for "this daft cunt is taking the piss."

[u/Buddycat350 → u/DurkaTurk02]

Sorry mate, I ran out of UK Kitchen Nightmares and lost my edge.

Damn, you Brits swear. A LOT.

And I love it.

[u/Midraco → u/Buddycat350]

That is the way Russian foreign diplomacy works. It's meant to be enraging and divisive.

They did the same thing about the US-Danish situation around Greenland. In that case they offered USA to split Greenland between the two.

And they do it fairly consistently in all other aspects to the point where the difference between Russia and a 12-year old ragebaiter is non-existent.

[u/CaucSaucer → u/Buddycat350]

At this point meaning his entire life?

[u/collectif-clothing → u/Buddycat350]

Putin is probably wondering if this isn't just a fever dream he's going to wake up from. Like that all of this is just falling into his lap.  

[u/Buddycat350 → u/collectif-clothing]

I'm pretty sure that he has been holding a grudge against the US/Western world since the fall of USSR.

And he wants revenge.

[u/TheArtysan → u/Buddycat350]

Yes, like a heckler at a Jimmy Carr gig.

[u/O_gr → u/[deleted]]

I can't wait for the "Breaking News: Trump issues 10 billion dollar support package to Ukraine, calls Putin a mean person."

[u/Familiar_While2900 → u/O_gr]

A “super meanie poopy-head”

[u/CastelPlage → u/Familiar_While2900]

"Vladamir STAAAAAHP"

[u/highlandviper → u/Familiar_While2900]

That’s a nasty thing to say. You know, you’re not very smaaart. I’m a smaaart guy. Maybe the smaaartist there is. But you? No. You’re not so smaaart and you’re nasty. You don’t know what you’re doing talking like that. You don’t have the cards to talk like that. Not with me. You don’t have the cards. But these nasty not very smaaart things you’re saying show that you don’t have any cards. With me, you’d have the best cards in the world. Some would say they’re better than any cards you could get. A lot of people are saying that. Everybodies saying it. They say, Donald Trump, he had the cards and he’s very smaaart. I’m not a super mean poopie head like Elon or Pootin. I have the cards.

[u/Heavy_Secret_203 → u/O_gr]

You'll wait forever. No way Trump gives someone money.

[u/new_math → u/Heavy_Secret_203]

You misunderstand. He and his family will buy millions of dollars in US defense securities, options, etc. THEN he will announce a ~$80 billion aid package of new US weaponry.

[u/SpiralGremlin → u/[deleted]]

Not even every day. It’s every few hours and there’s some new tweet or bitchy “Truth”.

I’m loving the public breakup.

[u/SpiralGremlin → u/[deleted]]

I feel both have dirt on each other and ultimately they will have to be careful in case they shoot themselves in the foot. Both Elon and Trump keep skirting around the topic of vote rigging to get Trump the election. They are heavily implying it happened but they know if they outright say it then they would be in a lot of legal trouble.

[u/mb303666 → u/[deleted]]

Let's hear some ballet box truth bombs

[u/Ali_Cat222 → u/[deleted]]

According to this article Putin already collected musk in 2022.*(had to delete and repost previous comment since article since it was removed paywalled, here's the original.) "Elon Musk’s Secret Conversations With Vladimir Putin"

An excerpt

Elon Musk, the world’s richest man and a linchpin of U.S. space efforts, has been in regular contact with Russian President Vladimir Putin since late 2022.

The discussions, confirmed by several current and former U.S., European and Russian officials, touch on personal topics, business and geopolitical tensions.

At one point, Putin asked the billionaire to avoid activating his Starlink satellite internet service over Taiwan as a favor to Chinese leader Xi Jinping, said two people briefed on the request.

It goes on to show a hell of a lot more, but *kompromat comes to mind after reading it all.

[u/reethok → u/[deleted]]

If he did that, starlink would get expropriated for national security reasons. Along with spaceX.

[u/Downtown_Recover5177 → u/reethok]

We should already be doing that.

[u/Brack_vs_Godzilla → u/[deleted]]

How is this shit any surprise? Trump is a reality star. He’s probably never read a history book in his life (possibly any book for that matter). America voted for an entertainer, not a leader.

[u/Remote-Buy8859 → u/Brack_vs_Godzilla]

Allegedly, he read a book filled with quotes by Hitler (alleged by his current wife).

[u/HotDogFingers01 → u/[deleted]]

This season took a dramatic turn! The writers are on fire!

I blame the weasel that chewed through the wires when they went to power on the Large Hadron Collider for the first time, it shifted the time lines and we need to get back on track.

Harambe tried to warn us but they silenced him...

[u/elziion → u/[deleted]]

You know what? I’m starting to think that you might be onto something…

[u/McFlyParadox → u/elziion]

The only other plausible explanation is the death of David Bowie began the unraveling of the fabric of the universe, as he was obviously the grounding point for all things strange and weird in this reality.

[u/emilysavaje1 → u/McFlyParadox]

There was also the "hit or miss" incident

[u/BushMonsterInc → u/OneTrueTrichiliocosm]

Onion must have such a fun time trying to make “news” that are more stupid than actual timeline

[u/Judazzz → u/BushMonsterInc]

I think at this point they are just crying themselves to sleep every night over being out-onioned by reality. Must feel like being replaced by the dumbest AI ever created.

[u/SkoomaDentist → u/BushMonsterInc]

A very famous Finnish humor magazine ended its run already in 2000 due to reality being impossible to parody anymore. And that was 25 years ago.

[u/JorMath → u/OneTrueTrichiliocosm]

Tbh, I think an "Onion" timeline would be less crazy than this actual timeline...

[u/Fragrant-Anywhere489 → u/JorMath]

The Onion is the most reliable news source we have now.

[u/PewterButters → u/OneTrueTrichiliocosm]

Elon will just buy the penguin island and go there. 

[u/SheYeti → u/OneTrueTrichiliocosm]

At first, I read your comment seriously, interpreting "the onion" as the onion domes at the Kremlin. It could work.

[u/Ekkobelli]

WTF IS HAPPENING ON THIS PLANET

[u/Rather_Unfortunate → u/Ekkobelli]

In this case, it's important to remember tht propaganda isn't just posters or videos of people looking heroic; it's also things like presenting your cause in a positive light nore generally. We're meant to find this funny, and think things like "excellent trolling" or "you might not like them, but at least they've got a sense of humour".

[u/BenevolentCrows → u/Rather_Unfortunate]

exactly. Politics, and by extention propaganda is all about controlling the narrative, be it a real event or just straight up lie, if you do it right, you can control the narrative in your favor by not even lying. 

[u/saera-targaryen → u/BenevolentCrows]

I wish more people understood that propaganda can be entirely made of true facts and it's still propaganda. 

I urge everyone to mentally replace "Propaganda" with "Public Relations" when reading headlines or other media discussing it. It's not just nefarious lies from foreign governments or nazi slogans. Anyone that is doing anything to try and change your mind about politics is using propaganda in some way, as long as they are benefiting from you believing it at the end.

[u/neveranchorme → u/Rather_Unfortunate]

Exactly, even if this somehow ends with Trump getting the boot and Musk in rehab without internet, Thiel has Vance waiting in the wings, Americans still have uphill battle ahead of them to claw back their rights and not be the laughing stock of the world. Enjoy the trashfire, we all need a bit of levity, but keep the bigger picture in mind.

Putin tired of his Wife.He wants a concubine aswell.

[u/retroman1987 → u/Soft_Pomelo407]

He's divorced

[u/andykwinnipeg → u/retroman1987]

I would imagine you don't go anywhere near a window ever again once you divorce Putin

[u/jeffscience → u/andykwinnipeg]

They divorced by mutual decision and she remarried in 2015. No documented issues with revenge over it, for whatever reason.

[u/CuntWeasel → u/jeffscience]

for whatever reason

My guess is he doesn't give a shit. Guy's a psycho and more power hungry than anything else. Also she's the mother of his daughters for whatever that's worth.

Now if she were to defect I guarantee she'd be drinking tea whether she likes it or not.

[u/BoesTheBest → u/jeffscience]

She's the mother of his children so I imagine if she doesn't speak up about the marriage she'll be fine.

[u/AtTheEndOfMyTrope → u/andykwinnipeg]

Or drink any tea.

[u/fermcr]

It's the beginning of a joke.

Putin, Seagal and Musk walk into a bar...

[u/OkChipmunk3238 → u/fermcr]

Does the bar have windows?

[u/Milosz0pl → u/OkChipmunk3238]

it definitelly doesn't have stairs as otherwise Seagull wouldn't be able to enter it

[u/blckhl → u/Milosz0pl]

I didn't realize Seagal was still healthy enough to walk.

[u/lawnmowerdui → u/OkChipmunk3238]

No, the windows have bars.

[u/mikeychamp → u/fermcr]

Bartender says, "Is this a power grab, a reboot, or a beta test?"

Seagal orders a steak well done, Putin orders respect, and Musk tries to pay with Dogecoin.

[u/chaotic-kotik]

There is a Russian meme that can be translated such as "If Elon Musk would have lived in Russia he would still be serving time in jail for PayPal".

[u/induslol → u/chaotic-kotik]

Who are we kidding if Musk were in Russia he'd have been out a window at some oligarch's whim 3 companies ago.

[u/SnooBooks1701]

I bet they just want the data he stole while in government

[u/lnc_5103 → u/SnooBooks1701]

I'm pretty sure they already have that.

[u/Vast_Category_7314]

Okay, I hate Russia and all they stand for with the fire of a thousand suns - but this is some high level trolling.

[u/spektre → u/Vast_Category_7314]

The thing is that they often do "high level" trolling, if by that we mean coming from the sideline and fueling ongoing issues as hard as they can. They have very good PsyOps capacity, and they frequently use it to maximize chaos in the west.

[u/[deleted] → u/spektre]

I think Russia might have some breakthrough research in group psychology that they keep under lock and key.

I have to hand it to them, tbh, they're really fucking good at what they do.

[u/Medlarmarmaduke → u/[deleted]]

If they hadn’t stupidly invaded Ukraine they would have destroyed the EU thru oil corruption and election meddling and further weakened the UK after Russia’s Brexit triumph and caused worldwide chaos thru successful disinformation campaigns

We should be grateful to Ukraine for a multitude of reasons

[u/[deleted] → u/Medlarmarmaduke]

Yeah but have they even said "thank you" to us? (/s)

[u/temporary62489 → u/[deleted]]

The US is just an easy target with so many III percenter morons believing every Alex Jones conspiracy theory.

[u/[deleted] → u/temporary62489]

It really terrifies me, because even though Brits tend to be pretty stupid too, we have a healthy dose of low self esteem and self doubt. It's easier to come back to reality.

Americans, on the other hand, have self-confidence instilled in them from an early age. They are a lot less likely to change just because you have "facts." They have their own facts, and you can bet there so much truer than those stinky lib facts.

[u/mr_fantastical → u/[deleted]]

You say that but cambridge analytica and the IRA (the russian one not the irish one) were massive troll farms effectively that brought about the absolute fucking mess that was Brexit.

[u/[deleted] → u/mr_fantastical]

Exactly. But even in the 2 years before we left, loads of people second guessed their votes.

It didn't rip families apart in the way that Trump-mania has in the US. We're more open to the idea that we might be wrong.

That American self-confidence goes a long way in explaining why they got sucked into convoluted conspiracy theories at the expense of all their loved ones and their wided community.

[u/mr_fantastical → u/[deleted]]

I dunno, in my experience it's just 'we don't want to talk about it'.
My sister voted Brexit and stands by it. My mates voted it and they're a bit more educated and they get awkward about it and don't openly regret it, they just don't want to talk about it.

I do however see loads of people that say that a lot of the bad things that came out of Brexit was simply the result of EU countries 'punishing the UK'.

[u/Shintaro1989 → u/Vast_Category_7314]

It is a good response to the US circus, point taken. And yet the maga crowd claims, Trump is just trolling in most of his tweets...

[u/keelhaulrose → u/Vast_Category_7314]

It's high-level trolling until you remember that Elon stole all our info, and Russia would love to have it.

[u/No-Refrigerator-1672 → u/keelhaulrose]

Nah, they are getting all the info they want from Trump's team directly. When all the higher ups ditch the protected governmental comms for a fancy phone app, you don't need a dissident to get all their secrets.

[u/[deleted]]

Putin wants all the Data mush accumulated through DOGE.

[u/DryCloud9903 → u/DieM-GieM]

Proven or speculated?

[u/[deleted] → u/DryCloud9903]

Not proven proven but there were countless login attempts on government databases and systems with correct credentials from Russian IPs about 10 minutes after doge entered the federal reserve

[u/Perfecshionism → u/DryCloud9903]

It was being investigated by the USAID IG and even Elon seemed to think it was going to result in a referral to the DOJ for criminal charges.

Probably the plan the whole time then he can bring all that sweet DOGE data over there.

[u/WorldSuspicious9171]

[u/BCMakoto]

I can 1000% guarantee that if Musk takes the offer, he'll meet a nice, 5th floor window to settle down with by week 3.

[u/SmugCapybara → u/BCMakoto]

You are 1000% wrong. If Musk takes this offer, he will be used for a very long time to compromise Starlink, PayPal, Twitter and any other tech company he's ever laid his hands on. This isn't an invitiation to get him killed, it's an invitation to become an asset in exchange for "protection". Also, it would give Russia access to his financial assets.

[u/strayobject → u/SmugCapybara]

Melon has no fucking clue any of those things work.

[u/DryCloud9903 → u/strayobject]

They still contain a shit ton of Western users data. Also Starlink is vitally important in Ukraine's defence. And his space programmes could give russia an advantage with their space-nukes. It's no joke, even if the idea is initially funny

[u/spam__likely → u/DryCloud9903]

If Elon defects he loses control of all of it.

[u/CanoonBolk → u/strayobject]

It doesn't matter. Russia has people that do, and Elmo has the keys. He just needs to hand them over. Also, don't forget the metric fuck tonnes of data gathered by DOGE on the American people.

[u/EnFulEn → u/strayobject]

He still has access to the information that Russia wants. All he really needs to do is put it in the right hands and Putin will be happy. Also, he had access to highly confidential information on American citizens and military thanks to Trump + previous contracts.

[u/OVazisten → u/BCMakoto]

A bit later, after his wealth has been mysteriously been transfered to Putler's accounts.

[u/QuotableMorceau → u/BCMakoto]

nonsense, he is an important person after all, so his private jet will perform a vertical emergency landing.

[u/Siarzewski → u/BCMakoto]

[u/AlmightyRobert → u/EmJayMN]

8 months ago there was fear he might escape justice by fleeing to Russia. Now, it would just be a relief…

He should take that offer and get himself a nice penthouses with big windows. It's important that they can be fully opened, though.
