DISCO s1e4 “The Butcher’s Knife Cares Not…”
Even before it became common knowledge that Elon Musk was a twat, I found the way the media fellated him to be egregious.
It didn’t start with the media, it started with the crypto libertarians and tech bros. I might be misremembering but I think the news media got on their knees in the mid 2010s.
Well, that and the stupid cameo in iron man. But in general when people say media these days they mean the fourth estate not paramount pictures
In the mid 2010’s when Tesla started producing real electric cars and SpaceX first landed a rocket on a floating raft, he genuinely seemed like a visionary who was going to fix a lot of our problems.
Unfortunately at some point he decided he wanted to be the source of most of our problems.
How funny would it be if they did a George Lucas and just edited the audio to remove Musks name.
Elmo would be so mad. His ego wouldn’t be able to take it.
I fucking FORGOT about that part lol
How much do you think Musk paid to get his name dropped? I bet you he paid too much.
He didn’t have to pay for that back then. He was worshipped by the rich pseudo progressive people, meaning modern Star Trek producers and writers.
He even was in the second Iron Man, because back then he was viewed as a real life Tony Stark. That was before he openly showed what a fucking bigot he was
Man it was really stupid (and cringe) of them to talk about musk in discovery. And it aged terrible lol
They could have at least read up about him if they were going to name drop, it was clear if you paid attention back then how bad he was, though it was more understandable for someone not paying attention to not know
Jason Isaacs improvised the musk part in hopes of getting a Tesla
He mentioned it in an aftershow
Was it before or after the “pedo submarine” thing?
Because I’m having a hard time understanding how much attention one would need to pay.
Though to be fair, I am pretty sure Edison wasn’t a fascist, because fascism hadn’t been invented yet
To this day , that title is in my list of top 5 titles, and probably the top Disco title.
All right yeah that’s what I thought. Well past when red flags were already coming up all over the place. No excuse for them to have been worshiping him by that date.
