They don’t mention it causing turmoil at Xitter, presumably because they are already at maximum turmoil capacity
You know, I thought they already were at capacity before Elmo agreed publicly with fascists.
Theres nobody left there to ask
Perhaps they contacted Twitter for a comment on Elon’s drug use and got a statement that read: 💩
I still can’t believe that’s a real thing he did, it’s straight out of a comedy skit.
I loved when the writers would try to get in contact and would point out the reply in their articles. Seems they got tired of it after a while unfortunately.
I’m usually ready to laugh at this asshole, but if he has a drug problem, then I pity him.
Important note: pity and sympathy are similar, but not the same thing.
Normalize pitying your enemies instead of hating them.
Yeah do like Mr T. And pity the fools.

What about his toxicity and narcissism? Are they also cause for turmoil everywhere he goes?
No no, now that he has a drug problem, we’re supposed to pretend he’s not a narcissist, never said anything racist or sexist, and is just a misunderstood entrepreneur.
He’s following Hitler’s lead
drug use? it would explain a few things…
I think I read somewhere he’s hopped up on ket every day (but someone correct me if wrong)
How could someone who doesn’t actually do anything using drugs cause turmoil?
Just listen to what he says, nod your head and go back to your job.
Ok then, I guess…… maybe don’t work for the company if you don’t like it? I dunno….
Do I “nod my head and go back to work” or do I “quit my job”. It seems you’ve jumped into a subject that you don’t quite comprehend and are firing off answers from the hip.
Yes, but what’s the coolest answer
Okay, so either you
A) Don’t know who Elon is and that he’s the CEO of Tesla
B) Don’t know what a CEO is or how their role affects the company
C) are just a troll
D) any combination of the above
Yes, but what’s the coolest answer
Musk denied the report, saying he is subjected to random drug testing by NASA.
But too late, it’s been mentioned in a headline so now everyone just believes it. Obviously it’s true because it’s something bad about Elon Musk.
Or are anti-drug laws bad right now too? I’ve lost track which is more important to believe bad things about.
Dude has lied about way more important shit than that, so why should anybody believe him?
He smoked pot live on camera. If he were actually getting random drug tests he would have failed instantly and had his clearance revoked. Because you can tell a clearance investigator that you murder hookers on the weekend after raw dogging them and nobody cares. But if you have ever even LOOKED AT the devil’s lettuce, you are a security threat.
The reality is that “random drug testing” for clearance purposes mostly boils down to if you piss off someone AND don’t have a supervisor who will tell their supervisors that you can’t come to the piss truck today because you are super awesome and that this is hurting national security.
I would expect that they started doing the drug tests because he smoked pot live on camera. I recall there was rather a kerfuffle about it at the time.
Anyone with a clearance (which would be required if you were the money mark for a rocket company because you were pissy that russia wouldn’t sell you an ICBM…) is eligible for random drug tests. That technically applies to random bureaucrats who do data entry. The Emerald Apartheid is not special in that regard.
Different orgs have different criteria for what triggers a “random drug test”. None are actually random and it is always funny when someone figures out what kind of paperwork puts your name in the pool to go piss in front of somebody.
And, once you make it past the peon stage (or are someone’s kid), you have enough connections that you will never take one again.
To put it in context: I have a friend who gets “randomly selected” any time he lets one of his managers know he had a layover in DEN on a trip. And I know people who openly smoke “really skunky tobacco” on their lunch break who will never get called in.
Do you understand exactly how easy a drug test is to beat unless you have a fucking junk scanner?
I’ve worked in lots of places with random drug testing that were full of drug users. For almost everything but weed, drugs are out of your system within hours or days. Being subject to random testing doesn’t mean he isn’t using drugs.
He’s really working hard to follow closely in the footsteps of his idol, Hitler.
Here’s an archive link to the original WSJ report.
It’s interesting to look back at his AMA on reddit in 2015. Every response was so to the point and on topic, even friendly. Clearly something changed since then.
the insanity and the cartoon villainy are a no comment
Drug use? … Or he was always just an idiot.
Just because you’re naturally stupid, it doesn’t always mean you’re on drugs.
or both?
There’s a high chance of both being the correct answer.
After all… you can’t spell “cocaine” without “AI”.
Criticizing Musk is what all the cool kids are doing. Everyone that likes to follow the latest fad seems to want a piece of the action.
just say it, you know you want to say it. sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeple
