Fine Taylor … you win … I will give you a child and guard your cats with my life.

What the fuck. This some shit some creepy guy posts on a private message board he's the admin of... wait a minute..

What’s awful is that Musk shows all the incel traits without actually being an incel. You have to have a real shit personality for that to be true.

[–] DaddleDew@lemmy.world 83 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

Money and fame are the only reasons why he isn't a full incel.

[–] scrubbles@poptalk.scrubbles.tech 36 points 1 month ago (1 children)

just never really grew out of it

[–] stoly@lemmy.world 26 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I actually think you have the best take here. One thing about being stupidly wealthy for life is that you never have to grow as a person. He's stuck as a teenager even though he's 50 or whatever his age is.

[–] scrubbles@poptalk.scrubbles.tech 13 points 1 month ago

and nobody calls him out on it, or if they do he's so far up his own ass at this point he just thinks they're haters. Taylor probably is one of the few who could actually call him out, but that would mean acknowledging him at all - which she is well above.

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

Not really. Incels usually begin with the shit personality and ascribe it to the lack of sex, but they maintain it when getting laid and tend towards being abusive partners

[–] kamenlady@lemmy.world 78 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Vivian knows firsthand what an incel her fathar is. Godspeed!

Right? Like it's fun to say, and even looks nice

[–] candybrie@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Yeah, I'm betting all of Musk's kids could pick better names for themselves than he did. Including his 4 year old, X Æ A-Xii.

He's as weird or weirder than any other grifter

All sex billionaires have is paid for. A non quid pro quo relationship is an impossibility.

[–] PhilMcGraw@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I get what you're going for but you're not giving their sexual partners much credit. Do you not believe women can turn down or validly consent to sex with Elon Musk because he's a billionaire? It says a bit about what you think of women.

[–] waitmarks@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

i don’t think that’s what he’s implying. Once you get to that level of fame and money, it’s impossible to know if someone actually likes you or is just using you. Since he squandered his marriage from before he got rich, he’s probably run into a lot of situations where he thought someone liked him, but was actually just trying to get money out of him. Not that it justifies his behavior in the slightest, but it must be quite a disillusioning experience.

[–] cordlesslamp@lemmy.today 5 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Well, it could happen if they're in relationships with another billionaire?

Well at least it gives me hope that children of even people like Elon can turn out to be quite decent. After all, this man has sired something like fifteen kids, imagine they all turned out like him. Gives me shivers thinking that you would have to put up with 15x the bullshit Elon produces

[–] JovialMicrobial@lemm.ee 4 points 1 month ago

Fortunately, a lot of children of shitty parents grow up to be good people.

Many adult children of these sorts of parents tend to become estranged from their family of origin when they fail to become their parents clone.

This part is just my observation, but it seems that the more a terrible parent wants their kids to be exactly like them more the child will rebel and run in the opposite direction once they're free.

Musk wrote: “Fine Taylor … you win … I will give you a child and guard your cats with my life.”

What does this even mean? What's the joke (or not) he's trying to make? I honestly don't get it. He wants to get her pregnant, than leave her for the "cat lady that she is"?

[–] IonAddis@lemmy.world 46 points 1 month ago (2 children)

It's a veiled rape threat, the kind that is worded ambiguously enough that it flies under the radar for many but terrifies those who've experienced similar scenarios with creepy, weird, abusive men.

[–] scrubbles@poptalk.scrubbles.tech 23 points 1 month ago (2 children)

He's for a long time had a thing for Taylor, making weird comments that you'd expect out of a creepy high schooler. Things like being weirdly jealous sounding of her boyfriends, to iirc inviting her over, making a joke about comparing her to his wife, and now this. He obviously has a thing for her, and she does not give a fuck. He's a grown up "niceguy" for sure.

[–] Wirlocke@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I wonder if it's because, regardless of being rich and famous, he can't coerce a pop star like Taylor, he's not that rich or famous.

She's unattainable, and for a narcissist that's irresistible.

Good observation, I bet you're onto something...

Ah... So it's not the first interaction of this kind? Is there a list of all the other times he's been creepy niceguy on Swift?

[–] scrubbles@poptalk.scrubbles.tech 9 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I honestly tried to find one, but Google and Bing's horrid SEO means all I can find is endless trash articles about today's tweet. I wish the internet wasn't stupid now and I could actually search for things

If I understand correctly, Swift mentioned she didn't have kids as a reference to Vance's shit take on childfree individuals voting. Good ol' Elmo just had to make it rapey.

[–] stoly@lemmy.world 15 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Apparently he has a procreation fetish and has something like 12 acknowledged children and who knows how many unknown children. He manipulates people into allowing him to sleep with them, gets them knocked up, and walks away.

She signed her endorsement of Harris/Walz as "Childless Cat Lady", lampooning some crazy shit Vance said on a campaign stop

[–] cupcakezealot@lemmy.blahaj.zone 12 points 1 month ago

taylor swift should adopt vivian (i'm obviously just joking but it'd be pretty baller)

[–] M0oP0o@mander.xyz 9 points 1 month ago (7 children)

Hate to point out someone with as many children from different people as musk is not really "incel" territory.

[–] rustydrd@sh.itjust.works 71 points 1 month ago (4 children)

"Incel" is more a state of mind nowadays (or a set of beliefs). Musk fits that pretty well.

I thought I read somewhere he doesn't actually have sex with most of the women he's fathered children with, he just provides them with containers of his genetic material.

[–] M0oP0o@mander.xyz 13 points 1 month ago (1 children)

If this tale is true that they would inseminate themselves and somehow that makes it worse.

[–] LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.dbzer0.com 16 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I mean if someone told me you can become a multi millionaire and had two options, and one included not getting fucked by a creep, and one did... I think I'd say the better option is clear

[–] bitjunkie@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago (3 children)

I'm extremely skeptical of the veracity of such rumor mill fodder, but will upvote anyway because the mental image is that fucking hilarious.

As someone who’s banked genetic material and was conceived via ivf: that’s so fucking weird

Owner of massive social media giant official statement: "I will rape and impregnate you. 😊"

Only in 2024.

[–] Phoenicianpirate@lemm.ee 8 points 1 month ago

The one major issue with many people like Elon, and I am referring to white supremacists who believe that genes are the only thing that matters, is they legitimately believe that nothing else other than what your biological parents matters. People like this are also obsessed with sci-fi series like Dune and Star Wars where bloodlines are literally all what is needed to make someone ascend to greatness.

This is why they are also shit fathers. Elon probably has never known what his childrens' personal lives were like and does not care. The most he would do is provide the finances needed for education and living and nothing more. It is no wonder why many of his kids can't stand him. It isn't just that he treats them coldly but that they never had any real opportunity to bond with one another.

Same thing with Donald Trump and his kids. His relationship with his own sons is transactional and he raised them to trust no one, not even him. I used to wonder how in times past noble and/or royal siblings and children would rise up against and usurp their power or kill one another. It started to make sense after this. Even they didn't really think of each other as one family that should stick through thick and thin together, but as rivals who sometimes help each other and sometimes fuck one another over.
