I maintain that anyone dumb enough to sleep with Elon probably shouldn’t be working on brain implants.
Getting pregnant is a brain implant ;-)
It’s sort of guaranteed nest egg.
They might not have slept with him.
The last one to make the news rounds he was just a sperm donor. I think that was also at Neuralink.
Even his affairs are artificial inseminations. He and his father believe in the whole “we need to breed back the white race with good stock” and so he’s all about having plenty of kids that he has nothing to do with
I never thought I’d have to ponder the question of whether it is an affair to be a sperm donor if you conceal it from your partner.
It’s definitely not the right thing to do either way.
Probably not. Affairs deal with emotional or sexual relationships. Donating sperm precludes any relationship with the recipient in all but the most personal of situations. I.e. you donate your sperm to a friend.
And in donations you don’t retain parenthood rights I believe. So it’s a question of who gets to control your body and the answer is only you.
It really depends on the situation some couples want the doner more involved like a godfather, or uncle. Some want it illegal for the kid to ever talk to you or meet you even if you someday decide you want to. I know s couple that brokered their situation threw a third party so the doner wouldn’t even know anything about them.
“with good stock”
The guy has Asperger syndrome, from the get go he’s not the pinnacle of human genetics…
WTF is that supposed to mean? First of all Asperger’s is named after a literal Nazi, we don’t call it that anymore. Second of all, plenty of autistic people have kids and relationships and are very happy. This comes off ableist as fuck
No disrespect intended, nor drama
What’s the name of it now?
^^^^ this
Eugenics in is the garbage heap of history for this kind of thinking. Evolution is never ‘done’ and there are no perfect people, there is no ubermench, no Superman, and no Pinnnacle of human genetics, you could be born cut and discovering new fields of math and science by 8, then die of a congenital heart defect at 26. You can live 110 years fully functional and never develop past the intellectual benchmarks of a 7 year old. There’s no perfect. No one’s genes are ‘good’ or ‘bad’ only more typical or less typical, and typical can be a lot better than less typical in some categories, much worse in others. One of my kids started talking at 6mon. Like full on sentences. She developed very early. So it’s she a genius? She’s very smart, she hits all her benchmarks at school. But no, she’s not moving up in grades or anything, early development isn’t superior development, that’s a big misconception. What you think a perfect human is won’t match what others think. The more you learn about human biology, the more your going to learn that the statics can’t be boiled down to RPG stats. It’s millions of factors and what is good or best is entirely subjective.
Maybe that’s why they are working on brain implants
Of course he does. I can’t find a link, but he once thought of all of his kids as a genetic dissemination of his gifts. He literally thinks he’s some kind of special, and not some rich kid cosplaying as Da Vinci or similar. The bar for narcissistic behavior has been raised.
Bro just has a breeding kink
It’s actually a hallmark / strategy of his family. “The only thing we are on this Earth for is to reproduce”
Why is this posted in Technology? I want to read about cool tech, not some stupid guy’s sex life.
a tech billionaire who is involved with multiple technology companies sexually abusing staff is tech news
Same reason this sub is full of people desperately trying to make people use Linux. For some reason they like these topics
At some point I became upset he’s able to get this much action when he’s the worst fucking person on this planet.
Money is a hell of an aphrodisiac
I remember him bragging on Joe rogans shitty podcast saying he had been working 16hrs a day seven days a week for years. When does he have time to have all these kids
Spoiler alert: they’re secret for a reason. The reason is so he doesn’t have to deal with them.
I’m guessing banging your employees counts as work to this guy.
His idea of work is shit posting on Twitter
Yup. He’s “working” 7 days a week but only doing like an hour or two of actual productive (if it can even be called that…) work. This is how a lot of C-level executives use weasel words to make themselves seem important.
They’ll show up to the office at 8AM, but they’ll say that they started “working” at 6AM because they woke up and had an idea while in the shower. Then they’ll play golf with their friends (“business associates”) in the morning and say they’re working. Then they’ll go to lunch with their affair partner (“potential client”) on their way back from golf, and say they’re working. Then they’ll sit in one meeting in the afternoon, where they don’t even do any actual work but do a lot of talking with a lot of buzzwords to sound important. And finally, they’ll leave the office early and talk online about what a hard worker they are for starting work at 6AM.
The “I work 12 hours a day, 7 days a week” stuff is all just capitalistic “we deserve to get paid more because we work hard to run the companies” propaganda.
I think Kim Kardashian once claimed to work like 12 hours a day, but we can look through the footage, the act of filming to her means that lunch with her mother and riding a quad in Hawaii counts as labor.
Just narcissists lying about shit as usual.
Wait is he fucking them? I thought most of these children were born via IVF.
Idk man, putin and kim jong-un seem arguably worse than the autistic Twitter guy
If you met some these execs, you’d probably run in the opposite direction. They’re a weird bunch.
Secret child-man? Or conspicuous man-child?
Are they trying to pull an infinite money glitch with the child support, or what’s going on here
You know how the Tesla board voted to gone him a $50 billion compensation package? After child support gets deducted he’s actually making a modest six figure paycheck.
He’s such an egomaniac that reproducing is a kink for him. Imagine being one of those kids and knowing your dad gets off at your very existence while him also caring so little about you other than your genes
The inheritance battle will be quite colourful when Elon finally overdoses on Adderall
It seems like x is also the number of children he has.
At this point if you’re a woman high up on corporate ladder working for Elon it is a job requirement to bear his child.
Such a pathetic person
Another employee says she refused Musk’s requests to have children with him several times, according to the Journal.
What. The. Fuck.
SEVERAL TIMES
Elon “Nick Cannon” Musk
Just because he’s in tech does not mean this is tech news. Please stop posting this and leave it to the gossip websites.
At this point he’s just a rich douchebag and has very little to do with tech. He has not made one smart business move recently let alone a smart tech move.
Musk reposted a chart that claims Europe is suffering from a “fertility crisis,” saying “civilization may end with a bang or with a whimper (in adult diapers).”
Right. Europe. Civilisation. Coming from a bigoted, lying, racist, billionaire that’s hardly surprising.
Further, so what?
Someone call CPS on this woman. Elon Musk has the brain capacity of a 4 year old, this should be considered child abuse.
/s just in case
guy has 12 children and probably talks to none of them in any sort of meaningful way
I cant even picture how he would have meaningful relationships with the children as they have three different mothers so at least three different households on top of him being CEO of multiple companies. I wonder how often he even sees the kids. Maybe this is the Republican dream of spawning more children but never having to raise or care for any of them outside of maybe an annual trip to Disney Land or some shit.
He spends all his time on Xitter so unless something changes about that, his day jobs aren’t the culprits.
The same as 99% of other extremely wealthy parents, they don’t. The nannies and tutors raise the kids or in the case of illegitimate kids, the mothers are given hush money or fight and usually receive large child support checks.
This has been the norm since the middle ages or before. Why are so many people shocked and surprised by this?
That’s what confuses me, not that he’s doing it, he’s a narcissist piece of shit. It is every one in this thread with the surprised Pikachu face.
Lucky for them.
… which is provably the main thing they’ve got going for them, having started off with such trash genes.
He probably thinks his superior genes should propagate without him having to take care/share his wealth with anyone.
We know why he is doing this… He don’t give a fuck…
But why are the women doing this? This kinda confirms a lot biases that loser cucks shill online tbh
Then everyone wonders why losers worship these clown daddies…
The fact this has 40 up votes right now makes me feel like lemmy is losing a diverse user base. Like, where are the women to down vote this obviously shitty take?
Let’s list some reasons why these women could have done this that aren’t “women are sluts for clown daddies”:
- he’s their boss, and leveraging his insane power over them to make it hard to say no and keep their job
- he’s just an extremely powerful man and they’re afraid of pissing him off
- they have insecurities, (like the “loser cuck” fallacy!) that they aren’t valuable or desirable as partners, and attention from someone as powerful as him feels like affirmation of their value even if they don’t like him or he treats them badly
- they understand that, by not resisting his advances, they might be able to provide themselves a link to a financial source that could support them and a child
- he literally sexually harasses, assaults, or rapes them and they don’t feel like they can criminally pursue one of the richest men in the world
Like, yeah, some of them might be individuals who have bad taste in men or are shitty people themselves. I’m even certain that some of them are! But damn, can we take the perspective of the woman for one second? It’s not a good look to find yourself agreeing with incels on the internet
Or they’re shitty tech executives and are shit people, which has nothing to do with gender.
Sure, notice that I included this possibility in the last paragraph.
Also notice that that possibility doesn’t reinforce the perspective that “women are sluts for clown daddies”
I’m a man and I’d probably slut it out a bit for a clown mommie
Aight you got me there
I, too, am down to clown tbh
The fact this has 40 up votes right now makes me feel like lemmy is losing a diverse user base
Feel like it’s worth pointing out that user has over 360 comments, and they created that account 5 days ago.
Also keep in mind Lemmy doesn’t work like reddit. Scores are not universal, it depends on the instance you’re looking at it from.
That’s a good (and reassuring) observation!
Still, even if it’s a bot/troll/etc. post, if we don’t call it out when we see it, the culture of the community slowly shifts towards “bigotry is acceptable here”…
I’m gonna keep pointing this stuff out when I see it whether the user is acting in good faith or not :)
Why are the women doing it? Power imbalance is probably a big factor.
You think elon is pressuring all these women to get preggers lol
Partly psychopathic manipulation, partly sleeping around for career advancement. It’s a tale as old as time.
REMEMBER: If you have to have sex with you boss for advancement, that doesn’t make you a slut, that makes them a sex-offender.
“career advancement” is euphemism designed to switch the power dynamic.
To the extent that a boss demanding sex in exchange for career advancement, I agree that makes them sex offenders. But those women still have a choice. They making the wrong choice doesn’t mean they aren’t the victim, but they still should be accountable for their choice.
Agree. Rape and sexual assault nare one thing, and always deplorable. But as presented above, this isn’t that. It’s consensual sex with the hope of advancement.
If the power dynamic is abused by the boss for the purposes of attaining that sex, that’s sexual assault.
Oh so I shouldn’t have divorced my ex wife then
If you have to sleep with someone to get a promotion, its not worth it.
100%
What are you basing this on?
Read the article MondayToFriday linked to you.
So nothing …
But why are the women doing this?
Child support payments from one of the richest men on the planet probably aren’t small.
And then we wonder why Andrew Tate has a following lol
“Why would my child need a dad, when I can get paid cash money!”
The main error here is thinking that because some women are motivated by money that we can generalize that to all women. And then use that to justify general misogyny.
There are horrible women and horrible men in the world. Prejudging everyone in a class because some members of the class are horrible is wrong.
Yeah, as if plenty of men wouldn’t have a baby with a rich woman if she was offering $100k/mo child support or some shit.
The numbers work differently if you swap the sexes like that, but the motivations don’t.
No doubt that is a nuanced and fair take but that’s ain’t the world we live in.
People make snap decisions on bad or wrong data all the time.
Andrew Tate is also in a Romanian jail right now, if I’m not mistaken.
Its a shame Adin Ross didn’t join him. He could probably use the companionship. Also, it keeps Adin’s dumb ass off the internet.
Take Sneako too pls
I feel for the other inmates
That’s why we banned cruel and unusual punishment
Please, do not even pretend that a human trafficking serial rapist gives a shit about “the role of fathers in a child’s life”
Does he have to give a shit beyond pretend?
He is a human trafficking serial rapist. End of story. Anything else is just spewing his own propaganda to legitimize the very real hurt he does to the world.
How naive is u?
They’re never gonna see any of that money.
Why are women doing this? They have a baby with him and they are able to get child support and spousal support for 18 years and maybe for life. This is a nice deal for a few nights of sex with this idiot.
that and they wont get fired from their job
So women care more about the money than ensuring kid has a father?
Not “women” in general. But there will always be willing idiots somewhere.
True, let me fix that
I would definitely raise a bastard for 5 figures every month.
Economics do be like that and we are all subject to needing money.
I was getting more at society loves to shit on men for walking out on kids but women don’t get grief for setting up a family without a father…
There are women who intentionally choose to be a single parent. Like they’re single, they get a sperm donor, have a kid. It’s not some insane thing. Kids should have a supportive and caring environment, whomever raises them. Not every kid with a single caregiver is neglected, nor is every kid with 2 or more caregivers properly cared for.
Humans run the complete gamut from the good to bad, smart to stupid.
There will ALWAYS be some people ( this includes women) willing to do anything for a chance at money or even to just rub elbows with the rich, powerful, famous
Ever heard of groupies? Wilt Chamberlain supposedly slept with 10k women and has how many kids.
But to answer your question absolutely.
Some do, most don’t. A lot fall for powerful men with lots of money, and my guess is that Musk throws out advances on as many women as he is able and playing the odds with and advantage means he will find a lot of the women who desire what he has to offer from money to attention to the experience.
I would bet that out of the dozen at least one did it for the money, at least one was an accident they decided to keep, and at least one did it because they thought he night marry them.
Nothing is universally true for all women exceot for the fact that they are women.
You don’t get spousal support because someone was a sperms donor to you or had a short term affair with you. That’s not how spousal support works.
But why are the women doing this?
Because of the implication.
I mean he is Elon Musk, he can’t talk in a meaningful way at all…
For the sake of his children, I think that might be for the best.
Dude genuinely thinks he needs to spread his DNA round because he believes he’s a divine being.
No shit, I would genuinely love a source for this. You may be joking or exaggerating at least but whatever the case nothing would surprise me about this POS.
Not sure about the divine being thing, but he has been spewing “We need to make more kids to preserve our culture” shit at far right rallies so…
Take that as you will.
Yep he “Know nothin’ 'bout that”
I hope they all turn out to be trans.
One (that we know of) is trans and she hates him.
Probably more. Just search for ‘x’ in a name register and filter the normal ones like Alex.
Kinda fucked he only has them in executive and C level positions because they are banging him
Talk about quid pro quo…
Oh no you can bet this guy is into Eugenics and refuses to fuck anyone he deems has “inferior genes” without protection
