Entire human race? Only risk groups, how big they may be. Calling it human race is about too far for this virus.
thoushaltnotpass
Said the guy who thinks the US will be coronavirus-free in 40 days.
nitsujcm
The entire human race: low percentage of those over 65 is the entire human race?
WayneBruceWayne
I feel like this is the worst meme format for this, considering Elon is telling his workers to work no matter what
ZAPZAPMOTHAFUCKA
So for real: the whole human race isn't at risk, and the economy has already started collapsing. At this point we're trying to minimize
ZAPZAPMOTHAFUCKA
The impact on the healthcare system and reduce the number affected by the virus. It's not going to kill everyone.
Arcian
Them: "You need to self-isolate!" Me having self-isolated since I was 15: "S-sure."
asmallcat
Funny using a guy for this meme who is making his employees violate the county rules cause he thinks making cars is essential.
princessvaliant
He isn’t making them. He said he would be working and if they’d like, they can, but not to if they’re sick or uncomfortable with doing so.

Pathfinder Kingmaker is on Steam for sale at a whopping 15 bucks. You're welcome.

My job ain't shutting down. Must be nice to be able to clickety clack from home. Lol it's the owner's fault not the office people's.

Now we need to stay at home and can't go to work. Mandatory Fun I guess.

Nothing is more cringey than hearing "you don't have to go to work" when millions cannot afford to not work a single day.
olson23409
Yea that is going to cause way more problems than this virus..
LurkSidewalker
This is the guy who insisted his factory stay open

Fucking really
TavisMcNamara
Did he say more than that? If all he said is the panic is dumb... Yeah. Tp shortages and panic induced bs is DUMB.
TavisMcNamara
Quarantine and such are important. PANIC is dumb.
SomeDetroitGuy
Weird that you chose the guy who called this "the common cold", pressured the government into letting him keep his factory open and
SomeDetroitGuy
encouraged his employees to work through it.
ohnoyoudid
Save? Well now I'm not doing that
utgort
Gee funny how he is keeping his factories open.
MultiplePersonalitiesProfile
“The entire human race” is far beyond hyperbole. Also, Ole Musky is not the best face for a corona virus awareness post.
sirinigo
Umm, 2-weeks maybe?
nxrble
12 or more or it’s for nothing
Emracruel
Not for nothing. The whole point of this is to slow the spread of infection. Not stop it (that is unrealistic).
DidNoOneNoticeThis
Yes. And if you don't slow it for long enough a quarantine was pointless. Letting everyone out in 2 weeks just makes the bump happen then.
Emracruel
I fully understand then, but the hope is that the bump has been delayed/slowed because people that were exposed now know it. Families 1/2
Emracruel
Of those infected that didn't know 2 weeks before can now quarantine, instead of spreading the virus. 2 weeks is far better than no weeks
danopotato
Elon is a piece of shit
GrandProtectorDark
Eh
InspectorMonroe
Musk is a cunt.
MrSquiggle
Tesla forced employees to keep coming to work and Elon Musk has been tweeting that the virus is no big deal, fuck that piece of shit
Scahrossar
Elon is an asshole.
Necc0
it'd be great if elon actually believed this
SirBrendan
Fuck Elon Musk. Fuck the Musk worship. He's a piece of shit capitalist who has behaved like all the others.
GrandProtectorDark
Same goes for the anti-worship

⓵I see Imgur is still sucking off funny meme man while he ignores orders to shut down until the sheriff literally comes to Tesla and forces

I don't think it matters who the person in the picture is.
Iplacetinyflagsindogpoop
They don't. Because le funny meme man smoked weed in front of a camera. Huehuehue
GrandProtectorDark
Or that Rifneo is simply completly overreacting over a simple sign-meme that isn't even remotly about musk
kakosekosi
just love how he wants to push for colonizing mars so the human race can't be wiped out by a catastrophe but then he says the virus is BS.

temperedtorture
It's almost like he's a snake oil salesman like every other billionaire with government support.
GrandProtectorDark
He's overly ambitious in his promises regarding timelines, but putting him next to magic watergatherers and Weight losd pills is a bit much
GirthBrookss
Ya how dare he sell and popularize those useless electric cars that are clearly scams /s
RayMC
Lmao what is even remotely “snake oil” about what he sells? Anything that may seem over-promising (ie Mars) isn’t a product yet.
khora
Did he say the virus is BS or that the reaction to it will be more harmful than the virus itself?
princessvaliant
He did not say it was BS.
Kodaxmax
it was literally something along the lines of "the coronavirus is dumb" on twitter. As a TSLA investor i wish his interns would take away hi
RayMC
I’d seen several doctors angrily say the same exact thing during the week we did.
Kodaxmax
his twitter access
lykwo
Yeah, some person who just started, who works for next to nothing, taking away something for the billionaire owner.
Kodaxmax
im don't feel like explaining humor to you
SomeDetroitGuy
He literally called it "the common cold" and downplayed its severity while encouraging workers to go to work through it.
khora
“Nevertheless, as mentioned above, please do not feel obligated to come to work if this is causing you any concern”
SomeDetroitGuy
And literally the next line is "I will personally be at work, but that is just me." That's him making it clear he expects you at work but
khora
“I’d rather you were at home and not stressed, than at work and worried.”
easytigger
And then fucked off on his private jet, AWAY from the factory. https://twitter.com/evdefender/status/1240345334020288521
SomeDetroitGuy
was just covering his ass with the previous line.
heyitssnowing
I’m still working. Staying at home doing nothing would be great
Goosexi
Same. Meanwhile i drive around and see complete idiots out shopping for a new TV.
heyitssnowing
Can’t be quarantined with a shit tv
magphoenix
Word. I was just telling my family yesterday that work is ruining this quarantine. I could be doing so much gaming
PotooGeatAndWise
I gotta make my boss money.
MountainMikeD
With all the long-term projects I have had on the backburner working at home means I'm actually working more now. Well, not this instant ...
TheBeardlyOne
Also still working. I'll stay home just as soon as I know me and kids won't go without.
AnIrishLegendaryPhotographer
Same here. Can't do my job from home.
stardewvalley28
Same here grocery store stocking
cottonballs00
Same here. But I'm masturbating more than usual, So, I'm doing my part.
tossabeertoyourwitcher
Can't pull that off, ya gotta be ready. Being home w the gf means sex could happen any minute. Aaaany minute... this could be the month...
BeetleDaddy
Same here. Fuck Taco Bell
servingmytimeinusersub
Agreed
jmbmpt
Im doing 24h shifts in the ER, and staying for 4 days at home Im between. While you still have enough people not sick.
ACanadianPerson
The real MVP
marvolokilledharambe
Amen to that. They still have me going into the office 2-3 days a week, which seems to defeat the purpose of me being home at all.
Ohno12333
Same..
NervAssEva
Same. I so wish I could “self quarantine” for two weeks!
TrapsAreIllegal
I'm working from home. I dislike it tbh. Rather be in the office.
MyBallsTouchTheWaterWhenIPoop
Retail here. Hopefully you're staying safe
DevilDolly
Tell me about it. All these posts bragging about the free time, wish I had that! Wish I could whine about being bored or having too much fun
Cthulhuchooseyou
Same here. Tech is not going to run itself.
some1username
Yup, people gotta have power
OutoftheDarknessIntotheLight
Yup. I'm working handling employees taking leave for quarantine or high risk. Someone's gotta do it and I'm still making money
IncromulentManchild

ObtuseDoorFrame
It's not exactly kosher to complain about working from home. Many people would love the opportunity to do so but will go broke instead.
squishcat
yeah my hoss went on maternity leave so I don’t have work for a month.
squishcat
boss*
GirthBrookss
By this logic everyone should stop complaining about anything at all in case their situation upsets someone.
ObtuseDoorFrame
In a time of crisis? When literally everyone is stressed out? Yes.
GirthBrookss
No
Zippla
I'd be okay with this.
dotnetbeast
Essential staff...according to this CEO.
T0zai
According to the ceo so is GameStop
KartFnocker
in case anyone didn't know, he forced his employees to keep coming into the Tesla factory despite the 'shelter in place' order earlier
TheWhiteBarry
"forced" ok sure. The memo said make your own decision. Did any of you even read it?
KartFnocker
if the state/scientific/health advice all say shut it down, you don't get to defer to your employees making their own decisions
TheWhiteBarry
That's your opinion. Not to be confused with the "fact" you presented that was factually incorrect
KartFnocker
ok
SpaceGhostToast
Thank you for the info.
carsandpibblesarelife
Auto industry was declared essential business, from what I was told by our boss. I'm in auto industry, were still working.
Beezlebubble
Aerospace industry. Same (we have defense contracts and such)
s1983kett
Not so in Germany... Volkswagen and BMW shut down.
carsandpibblesarelife
Huh, I work for BMW in the states...
mrlemonofbanana
Production was shut down, everything else continues, but mostly from home.
KartFnocker
Of course Musk and factory bosses want to be essential business, they sure don't fit the definition of the orders I'm seeing, though
carsandpibblesarelife
Not as far as production, unless their argument is to keep jobs open and working. People dont need to buy a car if they stay home...
KartFnocker
yea, I can see repair for sure, but a luxury producer like Tesla? No way
Kodaxmax
first of all he doesn't make those decisions, 2nd americas tesla sites did let most of it's staff go home. many chose not to
KartFnocker
he's the boss, no...? Who else has ultimate responsibility for those decisions
Kodaxmax
he is a CEO of tesla among other companies. He could stoop to manage legal and staffing, but i imagine he has better things to do.
KartFnocker
this doesn't hold very much water when he's been on twitter downplaying the virus
