Everyone likes to worship this guy so let's remember what he was like before his million dollar makeover
I was not aware Elon Musk is a notable person because of his appearance.......

he could look much worse, it wouldn't change his achievements and influence; he would still be attractive to many people because of that.

Musk might be a bit of a twat but least he's not a an emissary of the lizard people like Mark Zuckerberg

Never liked what she does with her hair because it doesn't do her justice at all but Godspeed to them, I'm going to listen to Grimes songs all day long.

Dude has said so many weird things about politics I find it hard to believe he's not off his rocker and at odds with her stated opinions, but we'll see how this goes I guess.

I liked Geidi Primes as much as the next guy, but I hope you don't expect me to forgive you for this, Grimes.

I don't even like Musk and I find so many replies in this thread beyond puerile.

But he was ugly before!

Grow up, ffs.

I though ERA loved Musk, why so many angry people
There is a group that REALLY REALLY hates musk. Even if it would be "Elon Musk heals cancer" they would reply with "BUT WHAT ABOUT HIS ANTI UNION STANCE"
(He talks about that here btw: https://electrek.co/2017/02/24/tesla-union-elon-musk-addresses-employees/ )

Also people seem to see him as black or white - either savior or villain. While just like anyone else he has bad personality sides to him that just happen to get in the news because everything about Musk/Tesla in it gets clicks on news sites.

Personally I think he did some amazing stuff (with tesla/spaceX) - but I've read his bio and also see in what way he can be a total asocial person making decisions that other would deem weird/inappropriate.

It’s disappointing to see so many people act like it’s not possible to see something in an individual other than looks.

Not sure why anyone's surprised by folks not having the best opinion of Musk, essentially one of the figureheads for silicon valley "disruptive" hyper rich white men who think space travel is more important than worker's rights.

People going for their looks are a goddamn embarrassment.

This thread is why j-pop and k-pop artists are always supposed to appear single
It's not really about her, it's the fact that she's only a somewhat popular "hip" artist and Musk is a billionaire with a fixation on space and tech. They just seem like they would run in different social circles.

This thread would not exist if it was some billionaire we never heard of. Have you not noticed how obsessed this place with Elon's every move?

Tell that to Elon Musk/Bezos/et al, not me, because they're the ones who evidently think you cant have both.
I never heard of spaceX having a problem. Only Tesla, and Musk promised to work on the issues that were raised.

He's a notorious workaholic himself. From a business insider article:
Elon Musk, the founder and CEO of SpaceX, is a notorious workaholic. During high periods of stress, he's been known to sleep on the floor of his factory so he can work nearly around the clock, and he hates having his time wasted with unnecessary meetings. But many people still want to work for him at SpaceX. Part of that might be related to the perks Musk offers his employees. Josh Boehm, who worked at SpaceX, recently shared on Quora how Musk encouraged employees to put up with long hours when he was an employee there.

It's surely not what is expected based on what we see and hear of Grimes, but I mean, he's a fairly young billionaire and as much as I like Grimes...Musk is surely not the lucky one in this combination.

The level of confusion in this thread is weird tbh.

When for some people a single sentence said somehow represents a whole human being I don't know what to say...
Do you forget what it means to be human when judging others? You know the whole fallibility thing, how personality are complex and deep, points of view, bias, how opinions change and need to be to contextualized ecc.

For example, in the same interview from which people selectively quote the 'I'm the alpha in the relationship' thing, Justine also says she greatly respects Elon as a brilliant man and a visionary. Relationships aren't one sided, and you cannot judge them by hearing just from one side. I dare say you cannot even judge them from the outside, without even knowing the people involved.

But yeah, bashing people is easy.

Never heard of Grimes but she’s cute. They’re definitely an odd looking couple in that pic.

He's a boss. Richer than any human has a right to be. Is funneling money that could help public transportation into a pet project which will increase car dependence and is privately owned, he has shitty conditions for is workers, is running an anti-union campaign, supports climate deniers while pretending to be an environmentalist

Literally all of his projects are taking money that used to go to public owned and governed enterprises (space travel, public transportation, infrastructure) and funneling them into his private ownership.

Also, he's insufferable and self-promoting in ever interview as if he's god's gift to man.
Whats your real reason for hating? His done something with his life?

Money and power is attractive.

Which might sound a bit offensive to her, but come on, she would not be dating him otherwise.
ugly people m i rite, who'd want to date them unless they had money and power!?

some people are really hung up on his looks and don't understand different people like different things

I love how much of an absolute mess this thread is, and how much people care about other people's choice in partners.
