This is the same guy who Trump supporters claim never tells a lie, yet he openly admits to lying.He claims everything is a figure of speech when called out on his absurd statements.
Hearing in the case over Elon’s million-dollar giveaways today. What a shocker - turns out Elon was totally lying before when he said the winners would be chosen at random, or his lawyer is lying now when he says they’re not:
Class-action lawsuit, anyone?It’s a dishonest scam, not an illegal lottery, your honor!
Like I said, I'd love to see Musk go up in smoke like Ivar Kreuger.I swear to God, Elon's decision to associate with Trump is going to land his ass in prison.
I dunno, who is the injured class? People who gave their info for the fake contest? What’s their injury? I am not a litigator, though, so maybe others see potential there.Class-action lawsuit, anyone?
I doubt there's a viable class action here, but if Elon's taking their personal information and monetizing it in a way that causes some type of measurable harm to them, I guess you could make the argument and see where it goes.I dunno, who is the injured class?

Yeah it would likely be a pretty attenuated damages argument. But you could perhaps make out this argument:I dunno, who is the injured class? People who gave their info for the fake contest? What’s their injury? I am not a litigator, though, so maybe others see potential there.
Elon could end up losing, in various ways, the vast majority of the biggest individual fortune in the history of the world all because he got "red-pilled" by a bunch of internet trolls a few years ago. Just absolutely laughable - dude loved making 69/420 jokes so much that he somehow set himself on a path to alienate all of his customers and governmental partners for the sake of trying to become the king of memelords around the world. He will forever be the example that proves that the idea that capitalism inevitably rewards merit is bunk, because he became the world's richest man despite never advancing past the emotional level of a teenager.I doubt there's a viable class action here, but if Elon's taking their personal information and monetizing it in a way that causes some type of measurable harm to them, I guess you could make the argument and see where it goes.
The bigger risk, in my view, is he's committing some type of wire fraud, which is of course a crime. Not likely to be charged, but it's incredible to me the world's richest man, with billions at stake, would take serious risks like this to run a scam for the king of all scam artists.
He's kind of the Howard Hughes of the social media age.Elon could end up losing, in various ways, the vast majority of the biggest individual fortune in the history of the world all because he got "red-pilled" by a bunch of internet trolls a few years ago.

Hopefully he’ll one day enter his recluse era.He's kind of the Howard Hughes of the social media age.
When do people this rich (relatively) go to prison, when they haven’t fucked over huge numbers of other rich people?I swear to God, Elon's decision to associate with Trump is going to land his ass in prison.
