No, the word you're looking for is parasocial interaction and attachment.

Thunderfoot is a loser who had an obvious and cringe crush on Ana Kasparian

>>12723440
>crush on Ana Kasparian

Who wouldn't? She's ugly enough to fuck me and dislikable enough for me to smash, if only just to make her cry.

>>12723047
Ah thunderf00t who gave up a promising career in science education because he had a crush on Anita Sarkeesian.

>>12723047
Who's this Neanderthal?

>>12723047
Thunderf00t's utter seething gets funnier the more SpaceX launches rockets and achieves their goals.

>>12723047
Someone mail this sperg a comb. I can smell his greasy hair through the internet.

>>12723337
every time elon muskrat does anything, thunderfoot makes a video busting it

>>12723337
parasocial interracial attachment?

>>12723047
Yes, because people should rightly be up in arms about Elon Musk. He's a fucking hack who hates science and loves money, that's the top and bottom of it. If Elon's fans didn't worship him like he's the second coming of Pickle Rick himself, Tesla and all his other overvalued ventures would collapse.

>>12723047
God, he failed basic math at his last video

>>12723047
Why do Trumptards worship Elon Musk so much? Fuck Elon musk. He is a self-obsessed narcissist who is using his wealth for vanity project and to make a name for himself, instead of putting it to a beneficial use. He's a typical conservative. He has no morality or values, and a lot of white trash like OP aspire to be like him. I always think it's hilarious that white trash Republicans worship rich people and they always seem to think they'll be rich one day. In reality, of course, you're probably a looser who live in a fantasy world. And this is how Co derivatives get retards like OP to vote for them. They convince all the white trash that 'deregulation' is good because one day they'll be rich and they'll have to worry about muh ebil regulations.

>>12723047
This dude is still around?

>>12724748
>t. Leftist who hates Elon because conservatives like him

>>12723047
Is this the dumbass on YouTube that makes a living being an asshole while "debunking" obviously gimmicky products sold via kickstarters?

>>12724157
Why aren't you upset about the government propping up other auto makers?

Do you dispute that Elon has built novel rockets that are putting stuff into space or created a car that transports people without an internal combustion engine?

I definitely do not like the Tesla worship, but it's no more annoying than people being awed by BMW's or Rolls Royces, just more recent.

>>12723047

>>12724748
shut the fuck up cracker

>>12724748
>t. thundercuck

>>12723047
No. There needs to be some opposition to Musk and his mass following that's grounded in science. It is perfectly reasonable to call bullshit on sci-fi futurist bullshit, especially when it is a private company on the public dime.

>>12724962
I'm not mad at the government handing out subsidiaries when its rational, I'm mad at the government handing out subsidiaries to pump and dump scheme. Musk's companies are about as valuable as the South Sea Company in 1715.

>>12724748

>>12725097
>Politicians giving money to prop up GM is rational
>Tesla being popular is a scam

You are so braindead.

>>12725118
GM at least has some potential. All Musk has done so far is launch a car into space. Hey, if you want to keep investing in TESLA stock and shilling for them because the entire value of Musk's enterprises revolve around thinking he's some God genius when in reality he's a fucking idiot with a child's understanding of science because you're trying to make another buck out of it, fine. But I have my right to speak as well, and I say he's a fucking con merchant who's companies are fundamentally worthless and not backed by science.

>>12725169
I don't worship Musk, but I think your hatred of him is equally as moronic as his idolatry.

I can respect he's used his money fund engineers to make advances in rocketry. I can respect he's started a car company that has captured people's attention. I think GM was going bankrupt because it was poorly managed and not producing competitive goods.

You are no different from the people you despise.

>>12723047
>Elon Musk derangement syndrome
pls define

>>12725201
I do hate him, because he's an idiot that shouldn't be in charge of anything.
If GM failed then fuck it as well.

>>12725169
GM went bankrupt 10 years ago. They were given ~$40 billion USD. Ford/Crysler got another $40 billion. Crysler went bankrupt.
Tesla was given $500 million 10 years ago.

GM now wants another $40-60 billion from Biden admin.

>>12725218
Sounds like a personal issue to me, aka Elon Deranged Syndrome.

>>12725224
GM going bankrupt is not an argument for funding Tesla.And keep in mind you're only talking about the cars, not Space X or The Boring Company.

>>12725232
Yeah I do have EDS because he's a fucking hack sucking up public funding through pushing pseudoscience. The dude is a literal parasite.

>>12725255
Tesla got $500 million. A literal drop in a bucket compared to what GM/Ford/Chrysler got.

You're complaining about bulb issue on a sinking Titanic.

>>12725266
Also 500 million / 80 billion is less than half a percent. What GM/Ford/Crysler got were 1000x more than Tesla. Tesla had already paid back with interest too shortly after. While GM/Ford/Chrysler never paid back and forced tax payers to eat the cost. Now Biden wants to give another 40-60 billion to GM/Ford, this time without having to pay back.

>>12725266
Then argue for defending them, not funding Musk. while defending them. All pseundoscientific conmen hacks deserve to end up on their arse, Musk incuded.

>>12725291
Sounds like Musk Derangement Syndrome is worse than I thought.

>>12725351
You have Musk derangement syndrome, in that you're running around coping trying to get more people to buy Musk's stock with nothing backing it, scientifically.

>>12723047
Is Thunderfoot hebrew?

>>12725674
Worse, he's Br*t*sh

>I vote Democrat because everything is whitey's fault!

>>12724748
Max Planck, one of the greatest scientists of all time who found quantum theory, was a conservative and believed in God

how does this make you feel?

>>12726482
You need to be a particular level of dumb to believe le epic old books of tales. That level of dumb is the same that allows you to think what you said is an actual argument.
Thunderfoot is correct.

What would you consider to be a "beneficial use"?

>>12724748

dipshit, do you not realize who regulation benefits? the fucking rich. they write the policies, you absolute brainlet.

>>12724748
>all these replies
Keep up the good work, anon

>>12724748
every year more and more regulations are added and your wage stagnates further. the only reason minimum wage is pushed is because it kills small business. bezos is now pushing it because he can afford the hit while his competition can't so he gets to consolidate more of the market. you are the corporate pawn, sjwtard. hence why corporations now push your blm shit day in and out. your stupid riots destroy small businesses and bezos consolidates more of the market. good work being a useful idiot as always.

>>12726781
I agree Elite fuckers use regulations to crush smaller buisnesses, but i don't think thats the main reason why "real" median income isn't rising since the 1970:
>females now work too instead of being homemakers increasing the workforce by 50%
>the average mom, dad & 2 kids household now has doble the disposable income
>cost of living for the average household doubles / "real" hourly compensation drops by half
>The average household now needs two bread-earners (80 hours of work per week instead of 40) to finance an average middle class experience
It's literally just a question of supply and demand, economics 101.

Elon has done two great things for the world: Paypal and Space X. Almost all his net worth comes from bugmen buying his overpriced stock. Stock has always been his product, its a bit like bitcoin, it has no clear value but its still in demand. Its incredible that the SEC opens an investigation because Gamestop overpriced but they dont care about all kinds of random tech stocks trading at a price/book value=50

>>12727460
Nothing happened in 1971 that has not happened dozens of times already. Its not as if fiat money was invented in 1971. The gold standard is retarded because if you really believed in gold you would simply use gold coins for money. Its ultra obvious that the point of paper money is to print and get free money, and that goes regardless of "backing" or not, you can have a warehouse with 10.000 tons of gold and still get hyperinflation by printing.

>>12723047
Are you?

>>12726563
OK then that makes you fucking retarded because he's Max Planck

>>12725218
such an idiot that he became one of the richest people in the world, wow so dumb indeed.

>>12724748
because he provides a figure who is generally regarded as intelligent for the right which they are in short supply of currently

>>12723047
Man, the fall of Thunderf00t is a sad thing to see. He put out frequent high quality videos in the atheist scene. Unfortunately he seems to be catering to YouTube algorithms for profit. He's likely tracking which videos get watched, why they're watched, and then repeating the same shit ad nauseum. It's been years since I watched his videos, and I watched one of his Elon Musk videos. Absolutely pathetic, and it's hard to imagine this is the same guy who used to pwn creationists back in the day.

>>12728762
The Forbes billionaire list is propaganda. There are people far richer than them and they're not that smart.

>>12723047
He was right about the hyperloop. Kind of autistic but pretty based fellow.

>>12729770
And now he's pwning slimeball Muskrat and his cultists. What's the problem?

Oh... doesn't feel so good now that the shoe is on the other foot and your favorite billionaire is getting buried by thunderchad.

>>12724748
Conservatards are huge bootlickers. They like to submit to some daddy figure. And there is no better person to bootlick than the richest man on Earth. Maybe they think if they brownnose hard enough they might also be the richest person on Earth too or will be acknowledged as the good bootlickers they are.

>>12724748
>Co derivatives

Wouldn't those be integrals?

>>12730499
I don't even follow Musk, and I don't have a horse in the race. The video I watched on Musk was pretty stupid though, and not of the same quality as his atheist videos.

>>12729770
Things went downhill after he started shilling for the EU and against Brexit in 2015
And I'm not saying Brexit was necessary a good thing, however the EU (in it's current form) sucks donkey-dicks and should be defended by nobody, even if you're in favour of a European Superstate.

>>12731886
It was obvious from those videos that he really didn't care about the bigger issue with Brexit, he was simply worried that it would impact funds for his lab. If someone called him up and said if Brexit goes through, we will fund your lab for the next twenty years and double the budget, he would have been calling Nigel Farage a Europhile for being too soft on the EU.

>>12726563
>le infantile understanding of what God as a concept is
I cannot stand faggots like you, there are no larger pseuds than people like you. Please fuck off forever.

>>12731895
Totally agree, and I thought that was really disingenuous and stopped following him after this fiasco.

>>12724748
>>12731872

>>12731895
>>12731906
I believe it. That captures the vibe I got from thunderf00ts musk videos. They seemed like he was just pandering to an algorithm to make money. No heart, and came off completely disingenuous, like even he didn't believe the shit he was saying.
