Responses that completely destroy the original argument in a way that leaves little to no room for reply - a targeted, well-placed response to another person, organization, or group of people.

The following things are not grounds for murder:

Rules:

  1. Be civil and remember the human. No name calling or insults. Swearing in general is fine, but not to insult someone else.
  2. Discussion is encouraged but arguments are not. Don’t be aggressive and don’t argue for arguments sake.
  3. No bigotry of any kind.
  4. Censor the person info of anyone not in the public eye.
  5. If you break the rules you’ll get one warning before you’re banned.
  6. Enjoy the community in the light hearted way it’s intended.

There was this brief, beautiful moment when Musk seemed respectable. He was into renewables, and electrification, and investing in space. It sounded great. And then he opened his fucking mouth and just hasn't shut it since. Once he started talking, everyone else started noticing and publishing all the terrible shit that was there all along but no one either knew or cared about until then.

Twitter killed (the image of) Elon, and now Elon is dragging Twitter to the grave with him.
