The ketamine abuse and 3am twitter scrolling is really taking a toll.

Also the shoulderpad on Elon's blazer shouldn't be bulging/coming out that far by just reaching his arm out slightly, how does he not have a tailor?

Then again I'm guessing any stylist that suggests anything other than what he was already going to wear is going to get fired immediately.

Rich people are cheap bastards

And musk probably fired them after they pointed out how terrible his wardrobe was/made any suggestions

I think it's a hangover from the early 2010s men's fashion trend that made suits way too tight all over the place. If a suit jacket isn't impeding your movement it's too loose and you'll look like one of those NBA pictures from the 90s.

I think he may have just bought a Hugo Boss or Christian Dior off the rack that's one size too large. The jacket sleeve shouldn't be halfway down his hand, it should stop at your wrist. It looks like Vance has the tighter cut (and wrinkled sleeves), Trump has his usual gaudy 80's businessman look and Musk bought an overpriced ready to wear.

The vanguard for Western civilization apparently don't understand Western fashion as well as someone who briefly dated a tailor.

he looks like nostalgia critic

Both of them looking at each other like "I'm going to take this rube to the cleaners"

Is there that much of a height difference or is musk doing some 'bow to thee' bullshit?

trump-drenched "When Elon Musk came to the White House asking me for help on all of his many subsidized projects, whether it’s electric cars that don’t drive long enough, driverless cars that crash, or rocketships to nowhere, without which subsidies he’d be worthless, and telling me how he was a big Trump fan and Republican, I could have said, ‘drop to your knees and beg,’ and he would have done it,"

Yeah, that's what I was thinking of. Subservient little chud. Worth billions of dollars but still doesn't know how to weild power. What a loser.

That's what bothers me the most about these dudes. Charles I/V took all that Aztec silver and just threw it into invading Egypt and tried to be a crusader guy and fucked it up and failed back to Germany. Like an empire's worth of people died so he could do his fonteleroy bullshit. He got so many people killed. And these modern pretenders that have more money than God are just the most frustrating boring shitheads. What the fuck!? It's like if Luke Skywalker confronted the Emperor and the Emperor was just a icky dude who cheated at card games. If we're all gonna die because the shit you do at least do something big with it. I'm probably not saying this correctly but if I'm consigned to die for your fascist bullshit at least give me the dignity of being buried under the foundation of some kind of monument. Instead I get this boring shit.

I get it, I just think they think that's what they're doing and it's just such low level shit once the shine wears off that most of us aren't falling for it anymore. It's hilarious how bad Musk is at what he does given the immense resources he has at his disposal. He's just so unimaginative and basic. Dude had one of the largest echo chambers in the world at his fingertips and he turned it to white power trash rather than leverage it into an information powerhouse that could have made him a freaking god.

Thank you. I honestly feel like I'm insane for having these thoughts but I have them.

Trump is only an inch taller.

I would not be surprised if libertarian-approaching had terrible slumped over posture

He’s so cool

The black maga hat evokes vibes of some sort of elite foot soldier with their own special armour, like captain Phasma or some shit. For me this really is the worst detail

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago

Could be a coincidence but it's definitely reminding me of what the chuds call the 'no quarter' flag. Basically an extra fascist American flag.
