Elon Musk threatened to sue Ashley St. Clair for custody of their infant son after she voiced support for transgender people.
Why hasn’t Elon Musk killed himself yet?
“Gods” don’t kill themselves they kill the plebs that think they are gods.
Shit, these billionaires are terrified of their mortality. It’s why people like him and Peter Thiel try so hard to fund ways for themselves to extend their lives as much as possible.
Maybe it’s because all of their greed will be for nothing when they die, as they can’t keep accruing and spending their wealth after death.
Maybe they hate that they’re just as mortal as us filthy poors, and no matter how much money they throw at it, and no matter how much they think of themselves as Different™, they’re eventually going to close their eyes forever, just like everyone else.
Her words sound sincere and she’s asking how she can further help. Well girl, you’ve got Goliath banging at your door.
100s of billions of dollars to his name yet not one child to say “I love you dad”. What a sad empty life
A one year old son. Which means they were together when he already went full batshit crazy.
No empathy for her here. Only feel sorry for their son.
I mean she was 23 or 24 when she said those things. Most of us are total morons at that age.
I hate that there’s no room for atonement and growth in the current conversation. I don’t know anything about her other than what I see in this article, but if she’s genuinely sorry and looking to support the people she hurt, that’s worth a ton. She grew as a person. Good for her.
A) While many of us are total morons at that age about a lot of things, by that point in your life most people know not to be hateful toward others. Even so, I will concede that we should be more forgiving of the things she said.
B) The point is not that she was too young to know what she said was wrong. The point is that she dated Elon while he was publicly and outwardly a batshit crazy Nazi. It’s one thing for the other women who dated him when he was better at hiding how crazy he was, but this child was conceived AFTER he did the Nazi salute multiple times on stage in public. At 23 years old you should know not to date a literal Nazi.
Most of us are total morons at that age.
Speak for yourself.
I’ve known 12 yr olds with more maturity and learning about owning their actions, dealing with heavy shit like death, pronouns and minority rights than a 53 yr old just in this past year. Heck, just in the last month I was confronted with a child no older than 6 owning his mistakes and apologizing for it. No excuses.
Part of the problem is allowing people to treat others like doormats, shirking responsibility over their actions brushing it off like an age, era and/or gender thing and this does nothing but create infighting over stupid shit like ageism.
Be better than this.
She can own she made a mistake like any fully functioning adult would.
There has to be room for forgiveness if you ever want people to positively change. She admitted that she was wrong and is trying to atone for it by advocating for the cause.
People can absolutely change as they get older and gather more life experiences, and we should be supporting those who realize the things they thought before were wrong and are working on changing themselves for the better.
She can own she made a mistake like any fully functioning adult would.
“I feel immense guilt for my role. And even more guilt that things I have said in the past may have caused my son’s sister more pain,” St. Clair wrote, referencing Musk’s daughter Vivian Wilson, who is trans. “Idrk how to make amends for many of these things but I have been trying incredibly hard privately to learn + advocate for those within the trans community that I’ve hurt.”
Isn’t that exactly what she did?
I see that and Good for her. However my comment was directed to the above commenter making excuses on her behalf using age. Im circumventing a flawed thought process of excusing abuse and bullying should be owed forgiveness over weak arguments such as age without ownership or meaningful apology.
Personally I’m glad she herself showed maturity here and didn’t use such excuses.
I think people at any age need to be given room to grow.
And people holding them and they holding themselves accountable: this is growth. We’re saying the same thing here. Not sure where we are missing each other.
