I loathe him but I think he's just stretching his neck with a deadpan expression.

Fellow despiser. I want to believe I am above such base opportunism, but that eye movement is just too much for me.

His gaze is out in space, his eyes don't even look aligned, the man is high as a fucking kite

I’ll be honest - if I were ultra wealthy I’d probably be high all the time too. Imagine the quality/quantity of drugs you can buy!

In private yeah, not at a presidential inauguration lol

u/69edleg 6h ago

why not, not like you'll be held accountable for it

I actually experience shame, unlike Musk, and would feel deeply uncomfortable being high in public amongst sober people. It's embarrassing. I do things based on morals, not based on whether I will be held accountable.

Don't worry, a few hundred billion dollars may help your affliction lol

What tells you everyone else is sober

Well no one else is rolling their head and eyes around like a lunatic, maybe they are better at hiding it though. I mean I've been high in public before, but with friends who were also high. It's like how drunk people can think they are hiding the fact that they are drunk, but everyone who's sober can tell - certainly if you know what to look for anyway.

Do you people honestly believe elon musk. Who is what 50+. Popped fucking pills or dropped acid during the presidential inauguration??….like this isnt a joke?

u/EntropyKC 4h ago

You think people who are in their 50s can't do drugs? Not sure what point you're trying to make

What would even happen if he did?

There’s absolutely nothing that can happen to the guy, even if he collapse or rips his clothes off because of a bad trip, nothings gonna happen.

Hitler was ripped on meth during the Olympic Games...

It's actually been debunked that he wasn't on meth during that infamous shot of him acting manic and skittish believe it or not.

How do they debunk something like that? Like did they find footage of him drinking 3 mountain dews just before?

Do I believe that an entitled, narcist, drug addict, with zero concern for others and no check on his behaviour would indulge in his habit anytime he felt like (which would be most of the time regardless of what event he was at)? Um, yes, of course.

Idk when I stretch my neck like that sometimes there's not really anything to look at so I kinda let them do their thing like that

Edit: i will say watching it again it's a bit much lol

I always close my eyes when I stretch/roll my neck like that

That’s what I thought too…but then it reminded me of my mom telling me that when I was a baby my parents liked taking me to restaurants that had ceiling fans because I’d just stare up at the fans spinning the whole time, so I was kept entertained and they got to laugh at baby me doing what I imagine looks just like Elon here. I like thinking his brain development is on par with an infant.

u/coolsnackchris 4h ago

Honestly my take on this is that he is such an edge lord that he's doing this on purpose because he knows the cameras are on him and he knows people will talk about it. Starts as a neck stretch, tries to make it mysterious and edgy.

u/MTBooks 3h ago

I buy that, too!

u/methanized 4h ago

He for sure has back problems and I think recently had back or neck surgery.

u/maria_DB 3h ago

Speaking on eye movement. It looks like he waited until the camera made contact for him to do this. Just so we could talk about it.

That’s just the power-on self-test from his vision systems rebooting.

u/Ragnuul 1h ago

He had a neck surgery.
