Elon Musk Faking His Gaming Account Proves He Is a Fraud (And a Stupid, Petty Fraud at That)

More confirmation that Musk is a total fraud

Lots more info at the link, plenty of gamer stuff
Look at his earlier photoshopped photos as a young man
He was bald back then, so that’s a rug that he’s wearing, or maybe a transplant
Intro:
Elon Musk has given all of his critics an incredible gift by faking his Path of Exile 2 account in a way that is so obvious that it would be impossible for anyone with even a rudimentary understanding of video games to deny.
Elon has been regularly streaming with someone else’s account, apparently that of a Chinaman he has hired to build the account for him, while pretending it is his own account. During the streams, he demonstrates virtually no understanding of the game, and yet apparently expects fans of the game to believe he is one of the best players in the world.
Though Elon’s video game hobby might seem like a small thing, the extreme form of fraud he has engaged in exposes his entire character. Further, the bizarre nature of how he has committed the fraud proves that he is fundamentally a weird, stupid person.

The basic claim he is making is that he is playing this game at least 80 hours a week. Just as a baseline matter, to get to that rank at this point in the game’s cycle, he would have to be playing that much (and would also need to be playing very efficiently). You can go on Twitch and see the above mentioned Quin or other top players and see how much they are online. So it’s weird to begin with that he would announce to the world that while supposedly running multiple companies and also manipulating the Trump administration and trying to interfere with various governments across the world, he is also playing video games 12 hours a day.
Please note that I am not against video games. Though I am not a pro gamer, I’m pro-gamer, and I think people who claim that playing video games is a “waste of time” are fools. Video games are fun and relaxing and they can allow you to remove yourself from your stresses and focus your mind-energies on something that is totally outside of your own life. Frankly, I wouldn’t even blame someone who has the free time for playing a new game a lot when it first comes out, as long as they are keeping up with their responsibilities. Frankly, playing a game 12 hours a day over a weekend is fine, as long as you get back to work on Monday and you don’t make it a regular habit.
However, the level of gameplay Elon is claiming to be engaged in simply by claiming he got to #59 in the hardcore ladder is not something anyone should do, with the one exception being if they are making a lot of money streaming it. Most of the people who are in the top ranks on PoE2 are Asians (mostly Chinese because they are the biggest population in Asian, but you also see some people who appear to be Thais and Filipinos on the ranking list). They are presumably the lazy children of rich people.
It does not make sense that Elon Musk would want to advertise to the investors in his companies, and to people in the Trump administration, as well as the leaders of the world, that he is spending 12 hours a day playing a video game. That simply is not reasonable.
However, he is clearly not doing that. His streams show that while he has some basic understanding of the game, the amount of knowledge that a normal person would pick up in maybe two hours, he doesn’t understand any of the complex mechanics of the game, at all.
What he is doing is paying someone who is extremely good at the game to build the account for him, which he can then go on stream and claim is his.

With the fake PoE2 account, Elon has committed an extreme form of fraud. Obviously, it’s not the kind of fraud that hurts anyone, but it also doesn’t benefit him in any way. If he is willing to commit fraud for no benefit, and in fact commit fraud that harms him, how much more willing would he be to commit fraud that benefits him financially?
It’s common for people to believe that if they catch someone lying about one thing that they’re probably lying about other things as well. However, that doesn’t necessarily always work, because a person who is generally honest in business might lie about something relatively harmless in order to avoid embarrassment. A politician who wants to have any success at all has to lie about Israel, even if he has otherwise good intentions (that’s a bit more murky, but you understand my point).
But this is a massive fraud that Elon has committed with this fake PoE2 account, and it is not being done to protect his ego by avoiding embarrassment or as part of some strategic political calculus. He’s doing it for literally no reason.
Although I don’t put much credence in “psychological research” in general, as so much of it can’t be tested in a scientific way, there is ample evidence that “pathological liars” exist. These are people who lie all the time, and will lie even when the truth would be beneficial to them.
Fraud is a type of lying, but it is a specific type of lying where you attempt to deceive people in order to gain an advantage over them (it is also typically more elaborate than a lie, the latter being a simple statement). In this case, the purpose of the PoE2 fraud is apparently to get people to buy into the idea that Elon is a genius and is capable of running companies, running the Trump administration, and also being a pro-tier gamer. But what it demonstrates is that he is incapable of doing anything without committing fraud. He is a pathological scam artist.
And again, it demonstrates more severely than anything I’ve ever seen him do that he is unbelievably stupid. Even if he has a psychological defect that prevents him from being able to do anything without committing fraud, if he would have spent a couple hours watching YouTube videos about PoE2, he could have made it at least plausible that he was actually playing his account. He just didn’t bother.
Conclusions:
People have been predicting the downfall of Tesla for a long time. Tesla is currently the biggest fraud in the world, and I agree with the comparisons that many are making to Enron (if you’re unfamiliar, the Wikipedia page on the Enron Scandal is fine).
However, Enron went down because of shareholder investigations into very suspicious accounting regarding the company’s profits. With Tesla, because the company exists in this ultra-inflated “growth stock” category, the price-to-earnings ratio is public and people are apparently fine with just going on faith.
One would have thought that the rising awareness of the superiority of Chinese EVs would have decimated Tesla, but the media has done a fair enough job covering up the developments China has made over the last five years, and the US government has done an incredible job outlawing the importing of Chinese vehicles. However, this has caused Elon to commit yet another fraud, claiming to have designed the world’s most advanced robots and claiming that these robots will be for sale very soon for $30,000.
This is a repeat of the “Full Self-Driving” (FSD) thing, where there is no evidence that the product will ever exist, and everyone is just expected to take Elon’s word for it. The robots he displayed at Tesla’s last even were literally just puppets, operated by a human. This is not a real robot. A human-operated electronic device in the shape of a person is something that has existed for decades.
There is much to say about the various other frauds he’s engaged in with Tesla, but that’s beyond our scope here. Whether or not Tesla is able to operate indefinitely is based on several factors:
- Whether or not people continue to believe in Elon, and to believe his obviously false claims that Tesla FSD, Tesla AGI, and Tesla humanoid robots, are just around the corner.
- Whether or not the US government continues subsidizing the company (subsidies, in particular the “carbon credit” thing, make up at least half of the company’s value).
- Whether or not the US government is willing to continue banning all competitors as well as forcing Europe to do the same.
- Whether or not the media will continue with their willingness to go along with this charade.
Another element to consider here is that many people invested in Tesla know it is a scam and a fake company but think they can make money along with Elon. It’s impossible to know what percentage of people are in that category, but I’m quite certain that the biggest investors all know it’s a scam (this was also the case with Enron). While those people could keep the company afloat, it could also lead to a cascading dump.
Elon’s MAGA Fraud: It’s All a Scam
It’s important to understand that Elon’s interest in electing Donald Trump was entirely based on wanting to prevent the hammer coming down on him. After the H-1B debacle, I think it’s clearly impossible for anyone to believe he actually cares about America. I disagree with most of the MAGA people at this point, at least the ones with significant influence, as most of them have become at least partially neocon in their orientation, including people like Steve Bannon who is trying to overthrow the government of China for reasons he is too plastered off his gourd to even being to explain. However, I do believe Steve loves America. He is getting paid by various Chinese fugitives to promote weird shit, and he no doubt needs the money, but I think most of his sentiments are genuine. Elon is not in this category. No one who supports flooding America with Indians to replace the American workforce cares about America, and it’s impossible to make that claim. Elon is purely involved in all of this to make money (and maybe because he likes the attention).
I think it’s also possible that Elon is attempting to make himself some kind of emperor, but that is a bigger issue, and it’s obviously not something very serious, given how stupid we know he is.
The fate of Tesla doesn’t really matter to me, beyond the fact that I want to see Elon fail because he’s a bad person. However, getting him away from Trump should be a priority for everyone. I agree with him about cutting taxes and reducing the size of government, obviously, but that’s something that everyone agrees on. It’s not something unique he’s bringing to the table, and I don’t think he is competent enough to actually accomplish anything in this area.
A person who is this fundamentally dishonest should not be anywhere near the levers of power, and the fact he is apparently making all of Trump’s decisions for him is very concerning. In some ways, he could potentially be worse than Jared Kushner.
Fake gamers are the lowest scum. Elon Musk is the Apex of Filth.
