Parker is right.

Parker is right.

Elon isn't that smart
Ya'll are completely lost if you think Elon is 'smart'.
Elon Musk is not the smartest guy “in” the world.
Money is the most salable good
Elon is the smartest brain-rotted narcissistic ketamine fiend who agrees with everything he reads on 4chan and still bought and destroyed his own social media site.
hahaha
Any humble pleb is smarted
"The smartest guy in the world" lmfao
Could depend on which definition of abstract you consider also.
Either something existing “in thought” but no real physical or concrete existence (which we obviously know as wrong, and what Parker is considering as Elons “representation”.
OR to extract or remove, and consider something theoretically or separately from something else. I could see it meaning, as an “abstract representation” meaning you are separating out and considering the actual VALUE of whatever the real thing is. The money is representing the value of the real thing. I could see it working in that way, if thats what he meant. Under the second definition and not the first, which is the way it seems nostr:npub1w69ya7xs697hk3hky3gllryz8rwverfa0ylz89chf9qnhfcskc2s64zltw is taking it, right?
Not an Elon apologist! Not a big fan of him! Just something i was considering. Thought experiment 🤷♂️😅
"The smartest guy in the world"
I think he just hires really well and takes all the credit........
If only he could be here to see it 🫂
I like nostr:nprofile1qqsvf646uxlreajhhsv9tms9u6w7nuzeedaqty38z69cpwyhv89ufcqpzamhxue69uhhyetvv9ujucm4wfex2mn59en8j6gpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgqg5waehxw309aex2mrp0yhxgctdw4eju6t0t25cfd definition of money as "time and energy in abstracted form"
In that case, I don't think Elon's defition is entirely wrong
i like nostr:npub1a2cww4kn9wqte4ry70vyfwqyqvpswksna27rtxd8vty6c74era8sdcw83a's view that money is a ledger. a ledger is an abstract representation. the moneyness of anything is ultimately subjective. Without goods and services money does not exist because there would be no value for money to represent. However, goods and services do exist without money (i’m not arguing with the necessity of money). The fact that money has properties like time value does not mean that it’s not abstract. The fact that we use concrete things as money does not mean that money is not abstract. I think Elon is correct.
Fuck Elon, fuck X, fuck screenshot of X repost on nostr
If he is our smartest, we are in trouble.
elon's a smart guy
but he's not smart about everything all the time
his mouth gets away ahead of his brain all the time
richest ≠ smartest
actually parker is not right. absent money, goods and services can be bartered for. just like before money existed. absent goods and services, money is useless. a person with a billion dollars stuck on a deserted island is not a wealthy person. just a guy with a billion useless dollars
to add, this is not an elon thing. he is just repeating what others have correctly said. its rooted in the austrian school, but I suppose that is incorrect as well

Elon still thinks humans play a role in global warming/climate change. Let that sink in
