Just my 2 cents, and echoing some of the sentiment in this thread.
IMO, if he’s buying Telsa stock, it doesn’t make your buddy a Nazi, or even a Nazi sympathizer. He’s just a guy making money in a capitalist system. It is what it is, and I’m not going to blame anyone for trying to make money where they can. I have friends in the same situation, making money off Telsa, and also despising Elon as a person. I don’t hold it against them, everyone needs to find a way to support themselves. You aren’t going to sewer your own financials just to be morally superior, because that’s going to be a net loss, and it’s pissing into the wind in terms of fighting the system.
If he’s overtly supporting Elon himself, that’s a different story, but it sounds like he just is making bank off the stock, will ride it out as it’s in his best interest, and there isn’t much cause for concern.
Again, like other commenters have said, just talk to him. Make him aware you understand he likes Tesla, but ask him if he supports Elon politically/ethically. Make your decisions based off of that. A lot can be accomplished with just a casual conversation. I wouldn’t recommend talking to him with an accusatory or defensive standpoint. I would be pretty casual about it to see where he sits.
Good luck friend. It’s nasty out there.
This guy sucks Elon’s toes
Wow, that’s actually a really impressive analysis
Unfathomabely based
Not one comment in here about Lord of the Rings.
Which I agree with. Amazing movies. Glad everyone’s on the same page.
For me, it’s James Cameron’s Avatar. Visually stunning, especially for its time, but the story has to be the most cliche, predictable, boring, lazy piece of writing to ever have existed. It’s like they held an environmentally conscious 11 year old at gun point and made them write a story. The cigar chomping military guy working for corpos wants to pilfer a beautiful planet for its resources with disregard for the native populations that live there. Where have I seen that before? Oh yeah, ALL AROUND ME, EVERY FUCKING GOD DAMN DAY. Get an original idea.
Fuck this stupid piece of shit dumbass movie. It’s intellectually insulting. It’s a disgrace.

Had my eye on Children of the Sun a while back. Thanks for the reminder it’s on sale, I think I’ll pick it up too.
It’s less money in their pockets and more money in ours. That’s not going to be a double win in their books.
Getting Epic’s money isn’t a slam dunk for profit. You’re hedging your bets taking guaranteed Epic money for lower potential sales vs non-guaranteed Steam money for higher potential sales. Having a bad exclusivity deal on Epic and then selling your game at a loss (90% discount) on steam isn’t profiting both ways, and sometimes isn’t profiting either way.
I also disagree with the sentiment that you’re reinforcing bad behavior. If anything, you’re signalling to them that you won’t support exclusivity deals, and are happy to wait for a deep discount on Steam. Ultimately, that’s a win for consumers.
That said, fuck exclusivity deals, and I’m much in the same boat where I’m hard pressed to support developers that take them.
You can play Nintendo games on PC, with the added bonus of not giving money to that ghoulish company.
I played BotW and TotK on my PC, and let me tell you friend, with the increased frame rate, and the ability to run reshade, it looks and feels better than ever.

Hey it’s me, your therapist. It’s for the nudes.
Thanks for putting yourself on the pyre to prove a point. Hivemind is worse here than Reddit imo, because at least Reddit has a diverse user base…
I’d reckon from his parents, but I never saw the incident myself. You know kids in high school though. Spread a rumour and it catches like wildfire. I wouldn’t be surprised if it was actually a machete.
Kid nearly lopped an arm off another kid with a samurai sword. Guess he was bullied and he lost his shit one day. Kid with the sword got help, and the kid who got cut didn’t lose an arm.
If I lived in a country with lax gun control, this would have been a much different situation.
Chemically induced motivation. Just how I like need it
