    When IBM, the guys that developed the computer system to schedule and track the holocaust itself, go “OY, cool your rhetoric Elon”, you know you’re well off the deep end.

        Could you take a screenshot when you post this stuff? I really don’t want to touch that pile of shit in any way.

          I’m not sure a screen shot tells you anything that the url itself doesn’t. No need to click on anything.
