Don’t kid yourself he will just buy his version of legacy, everything is for sale now.
Don’t bet on it.
History is written by the victors, and we have a long road ahead making sure his ilk aren’t the victors.
Dude has infinity net worth and most people still consider him a loser. And I don’t think any of the other billionaires can ever change that.
And if they try someone will just repost the pic of Musk pre hair transplant- 38 minutes
even epstein dint want him on his island. he had to settle for scraps from ghislaine.

We need to start a “Bounties for Billionaires” appeal where anybody can donate and each billionaires gets a bounty on them. At the end of each month, the billionaire with the most money gets all the funds put into a pool for anyone to claim.
The kicker is, it has to be by guillotine (French-style) and the other billionaires can donate to the next pool to not be on the list, but they have to have a dinner in a room with the losers’ heads on spikes (Russian-style)… and the billionaire donations are public for everyone to see who they donated against!

See Henry Ford as an example, his history got whitewashed into “popularizer of car” instead of “nazi dipshit who forced car dependency upon us”.

he will remembered as a pedophile that called thai divers pedo, and hanging out with MS kung fu instructor and epstein.

He’s well-remembered for both. Musk doesn’t give any shit about space beyond owning the rights to it.
but SpaceX does experiments!
In the most “Your steak comes with a salad” kind of way.

Killed off USAID,
Donated 288 million to Trump’s election,
Trump thanks him (and his Gen-Z computer nerds) for “being good with voting machines”.
Emails of him literally begging to go to Epstein’s Island.

That’s wild. I thought it was only 60 million and thought it was bad at that. How the average person doesn’t see this level of political donations as election interference is crazy.

I’m hoping we remember him for the look of fear on his face before being assassinated.

Let’s see what the great American magnates of the past are remembered for:
- Henry Ford was remembered for selling his cars at a low enough price and paying his workers a high enough wage that they could easily afford to buy the cars they made.
- Andrew Carnegie was known for paying for the construction of a library in every town.
- J. P. Morgan was known for bailing out the economy of New York using his personal wealth and influence when the Federal Reserve did not yet exist.
All these men were also known as ruthless barons of industry who stamped out those who opposed them without second thought, but at least they also did a fair bit of good to at least try to offset their ills. Elon is just openly a horrible person. History will not be kind to his memory.

Henry Ford is also still known as a nazi empathizer. You can be a lot of shitty things, but Nazi tends to stick. Reminds me of the end of Inglorious Bastards.
True, but if someone pointed and said “Eww, is that one of those Nazi cars?”, I’d assume they were pointing at a Tesla, not a Ford (or even a Volkswagen or Mercedes, oddly enough).

Well, I’m not saying that they’re only remembered for the good things. But you’ve almost certainly heard about the good things that Ford’s done as well. What notable good thing will Elon be known for? I can’t think of anything at all.
one can only hope he turns his image around [mildly NSFL]
Because this is what we expect

Henry Ford is known for the production line, which is what made vehicles affordable.

They’re not affordable anymore. What good is that Nazi sympathizers legacy now?

VonBraun was also famous for rockets, but was still, under it all, a fucking Nazi.
Nothing he did after being a Nazi made up for that.

Near the bottom of the list of the saddest things I saw last year was a video clip of an “every day” major Musk fanboy coming to terms that their hero was a wackjob drug addict. It looked like Musk had taken a bit too much MDMA, Ketamine, or some amount of both as he was having these spastic episodes of body shakes and eye rolls during the middle of the interview. Mysteriously difficult to find the video clip now.
