No, you don't get it.
He does not have $1 trillion sitting in cash, it is 99% stock in his companies.
To make that wealth liquid would mean selling all that stock which would swiftly destroy *both* the companies (Tesla, SpaceX, others) and the wealth. If he sold it all, he'd end up with maybe $100b max, several hundred thousand people would be out of work, the companies ruined and many of their suppliers also ruined.
Okay, but now Elon has $100b in cash, and can "solve the world's problems".
$100b divided by the world's 8 billion people is $12
If you were in charge, several of the most innovative industrial companies in the world would be destroyed, hundreds of thousands out of work, and space would again close to human civilization for another generation.
But everyone on earth could have one nice meal and you could revel in your altruism.
If you as a leftist want to understand why people are upset about the Charlie Kirk assassination try to picture it happening to someone you empathize with, like a black rapist or something
One of the most concealed, reviled, and avoided truths of human existence in a materialist society built on egalitarian principles is that the value of human life is neither objective or abstractly priceless.
Human life has specific subjective value. Not only are some human lives worth more than others, but some people are more concretely classifiable as human beings than others. There are people that walk the earth which cannot and should not be considered human beings.
These are innately instinctive truths which have been understood about human nature ever since the dawn of civilization. These truths represent horrific disruption to every system of government touted as correct by the amorphous blob which defines western hegemony.
Everything you were taught in school, every movie you were fed, every song you listened to, and every chiding lecture from anyone even slightly important on television has existed to reinforce the message that the value of human life cannot be counted or compared.
And yet, it not only can be, but is calculated to mathematical precision every day by corporations, government agencies, militaries, think tanks, hedge funds, and banking institutions.
Value is a relative concept. Your value to the world around you is exclusively determined by your effect on the world and those in it. Even the most minor ineffectualities by peripheral presence contribute to the great piggie bank of how others see you.
If you are ugly, you have less value than the beautiful because you inflict a sensory burden on those around you.
If you are stupid, you have less value than the intelligent because you are unable to contribute as much and often create problems which smarter people must develop solutions to mitigate.
If you are poor, you have less value than the rich because you simultaneously are far less capable of actionable consequence and autonomy, but you likely inhabit a number of other negativities which compound upon your squalid existence.
Refugees represent an almost exclusive drain upon the society in which they inflict their presence. They are not simply within the category of “immigrant” which is a mixed bag of utility depending on context. They are purely a vague category of disenfranchised and prospectless mouths to feed whose use to society is mainly through the steering of their destination for the purpose of political pandering or to be used as pawns in societal destabilization.
A refugees life is almost certainly worth far less than a ridiculous little waffle eating squirrel, simply through the mathematics of emotional impact that squirrel had compounded through the amplifier of social media. A squirrel that entertained thousands, millions of people will always be worth more than even most human individuals of well repute.
Even a wild squirrel eating an acorn on a tree branch in a park will be worth more for the sole act of making a little girl smile than a smelly pissed stained homeless person on a subway, who has accrued enough collective ire, imposition, and sensory assault on his surroundings that any society would be justified in feeding him into a sluice that processes his mass into fertilizer.
Progressive identity politics ridden grandstanders will cry and shit their pants over the most obvious truths about existence, which they cannot even parse in their schizophrenic slogan built delusion reality where no individual person has value but the category of being “a person” is everything.
“Did he deserve to go to jail just for being loud on the train???”
Yes
“Is your personal stuff worth someone else’s life?”
Much more
“(Random crime) doesn’t mean he deserved to get shot.”
No, his existence already justified it.
This is the world you and everyone actually lives in, one where the localization of your reality dictates value.
I would wipe out the population of three different continents just to save the life of someone I loved and if you disagree I’m a better person than you are.
You don't know what you're talking about.
These people have spent the past DECADE proving that they are irredeemably UGLY inside, and they won't relent until they can make you feel some semblance of the pain and bitterness they feel every day towards God for making them fucked up freaks.
The only time they care about rules, civility, unity, etc., is when those things can be used to HANDCUFF you while your kids are transed and your money is stolen to pay for some fag war or some group of people that hates you and is replacing you.
There is no reconciliation. We are not gleeful and we are not out for blood, we just know that WE CANNOT LIVE WITH THESE PEOPLE ANYMORE.
Their moral lassitude is the reason why American cities are unlivable. Their virtue signalling comes at the expense of child abuse, medical malpractice, and a couple hundred thousand dead Ukrainians. They will ALWAYS play dirty no matter how much we play fair. They need to be politically disenfranchised, publicly shamed—they need to be properly trained with electric shock therapy to keep their fucking mouths shut.
These are not people who think critically from first principles, they are THE mob you speak of. They are mob mentality incarnate—that is why they are called normies, NPCs, and the like. The idea of them exercising "free speech" is a joke, because the only thing loaded into their software is CNN talking points.
I think you are overthinking things. Your last game, "Rage", was very bad. In fact I would go so far as to call it Penis Poop. What I would suggest you do is stop being a little fucking pencil neck dork defending people wishing your president was dead (you're being a smarty pants), and get back to making games that are actually good, as that is something we are all in desperate need of right now.
