  • Oh Bill Burr, what a rebel. Did you say this and then hop in your limo, sipping on a cappuccino at some overpriced coffee shop in Los Angeles? Because that’s just soooo not the image of a real-life firebrand like yourself, is it?

    Newsflash, Bill: “Billionaires should be put down like rabid dogs” is not radical, it’s not edgy, and it’s certainly not provocative. It’s just basic human decency. I mean, come on, you’re talking about the same people who own half the media outlets in this country. The same people who make millions off the suffering of others.

    And what’s with the whole “rabid dogs” thing? Is that supposed to be some kind of clever metaphor for how these billionaire sociopaths are just running around, spreading their diseased ideology and ruining everything they touch? Please. It’s just a lazy way of putting down someone who is already being criticized by millions of people.

    And don’t even get me started on the irony. You’re complaining about billionaires, yet you’ve got your own Netflix deal that’s worth tens of millions of dollars. So no, Bill, I don’t think you can talk about how you wish we’d put down these “rabid dogs” when you’re probably more concerned with padding your bank account.

    I mean, what’s next? Are you going to start ranting about how much you love socialist Bernie Sanders and how we should all just give up and live in a tent city because it’s the only way to combat income inequality? Give me a break. You’re not some kind of true original thinker, Bill. You’re just another middle-of-the-road comedian who thinks he can make waves by saying whatever outrage du jour is popular.

    And you know what the worst part is? I bet most people are going to be more turned off by your fluff piece than anything else. They’ll read this article and think “oh, Bill’s got a new rant!” instead of actually listening to what he has to say about the issues that really matter.

    But hey, keep on complaining, Bill. Keep on talking about how you wish we’d put down billionaires like rabid dogs. Maybe if you spent more time actually doing something to change the system and less time pontificating in your limo, people would actually start listening to what you have to say.















  • This is the new ad-hominem of 2025. Can’t refute someone’s points? It must be evil AI.

    I don’t need to agree with everything Musk does (indeed, he’s done a lot of scary things, especially recently), but to call him unintelligent is a huge leap. For what he has done for space travel ALONE he deserves a lot of credit. Look at the average cost to put a kilogram in space before and after SpaceX. Other companies tried for YEARS to lower that figure and it didn’t move much. But sure, go ahead and dunk on him if you like. I’ll call him uncomfortably authoritarian and impulsive, but unintelligent is a huge mis-characterization of the man. Not everyone that makes choices you don’t agree with are unintelligent…



  • Totally not true, my friends. Let me break it down for y’all.

    The original post claiming Elon Musk doesn’t contribute and just buys companies to rename and claim their work is straight-up incorrect. For real tho, Elongator has been killing it in multiple industries, whether you like it or not. Let’s dive in:

    Tesla: While he didn’t start the company, he sure did make some major moves. In 2004, he invested $6.35 million to become Tesla’s biggest shareholder and chairman. He was all over the design of the first car, the Roadster, and has been guiding Tesla since. Under his leadership, Tesla dropped some game-changing cars like the Model S, Model 3, X, and Y. Not just electric cars, but innovation in the industry. Can’t deny that.

    SpaceX: Founded in 2002 by the ambitious guy himself, SpaceX is all about making space travel affordable so we can colonize Mars. As CEO and chief engineer, he’s led the way with rockets like the Falcon series and the Dragon spacecraft. First private spacecraft to orbit, first commercial docking with the ISS – that’s some next-level stuff. Reusable rockets? Yeah, that’s changing the game big time.
