You know, if Elon wouldn't have had gender affirming care in the form of hair plugs... 🤔

- Better example would be the plastic surgery on his jaw

- Hows tgat gender affirming? Its not like only men have hair on their head.
  
  EDIT: Why are u booing me im right

  The kind of man Elon wants to be has hair on his head. There's many ways to be a man and Elon wants a specific one.

  Baldness in men is seen as a failing somehow despite it being largely uncontrollable.
  
  Him getting his hair done to feel more attractive and like himself is affirming surgery.
  
  You are not wrong that anyone can get hair restoration and any human type can have hairloss. Male pattern baldness is another category.
  
  The thing people are saying this is about him modifying his body to be happier but trying to deny others the ability to so so legally.

  I think sometimes folks just go overboard and end up making what would be valid points into easily dismissed statements. Given our societal norms, hair would be more gender affirming if an individual is presenting as feminine. A better example for men would be treatment for low t.

  Yeah the hair isn't exactly, but the T and HGH is.
  
  I think he might have had maxillofacial surgery too, but it could just be the HGH.

Hm. That would insinuate that Trump is Jesus, and that’s not the message I feel we should be sending.

- He's for certain an Antichrist.

  I can't ever turn down the opportunity to share this site

  Would that make Musk the Anti Judas?
  
  1
- I understood it more as Musk betraying his previous fanbase. Those that used to think that he was a positive force, investing in cool things. Before he revealed himself as a deranged asshole.

  Same. Dude started off on the semblance-of-sanity side and then betrayed logic and science in multiple stunning acts of pure idiocy.
  
  This is Judas-as-metaphor, not picture The Last Supper.

- Here me out: Judas betrays Jesus.
  
  Not saying you're wrong. But I'm willing to let the man speak.

  I’m fine with the betrayal part. It’s the deification of the asshole Trump I have a huge problem with.

- So trump will go to heaven in April?

- That, or Jesus was the American people and we're in a post-betrayal world, which I guess would make Trump Pontius Pilate.

I can’t believe I googled this.

For those like me, I found that this does not seem to have even a shred of truth—there is no alternate reconstituted face of Judas, nor is this one mentioned anywhere.

- Well what the hell were they actually going to base it off of. I don't think there's any churches claiming the skull of Judas as one of their relics.

  There is no evidence for the Jesus pictures either, but I at least assumed it was another one of those half baked renditions based on genetic data from the region and basic biblical descriptions.

- It's from a parody news site. It's a joke

"using artificial intelligence"

oh, so it's completely worthless

35
- Nordpress is a satirical website. It's the belgian the onion.
  
  21
  
  Now everything makes sense

- That, or they opted to use buzzwords to secure funding from investors more willing to buy into the hype than actually interested about the research.
  
  Or it's just a joke, playing off of that trope or scientific headlines to make a caricature of Musk.
  
  14
- We didn't even Artifical intelligence, we have created Geniune Stupidity

  Now that's a tasty quote to save for later!

Weird, why am I getting Bezos vibes when everyone else sees Elon

18
- I see a white and gold dress
  
  39
- Please don't let this be the next "the dress" lol. It's too creepy to see posted everywhere.

- Bald

Elon Musk without hair looks like a smarmy ancient Egyptian bureaucrat who is way in over his head and ends up being executed shortly after being told to perform a routine task.

17
Hmm.

I would normally kneejerk at any mention of Christianity but since it's our favorite whipping boy I'll go with it.

Public use:

Help the public collection of Musk's nicknames, I'll start:

• Space Karen

- • Ellen Musk

Inshallah, Elon is the Judas to Trump's Jesus.

It was Elonia all along

I think that the comparison to Judas Iscariot is unfair. Judas got dealt a lousy hand in life, having to play the role of a snitch to fulfill a divine prophecy. He suffered pangs of conscience for betraying J.C., so he unsuccessfully tried to return the blood money that he received. He was so upset with the situation that he hanged himself. (That instantly makes me think of the M*A*S*H theme.)

Judas Iscariot is better than Elon Musk in every way imaginable. It's not even a contest.

1
- Matthew says he hanged himself, Luke (in Acts) says he...bought a field and burst open in it.
  
  Acts 1 18:
  
  "With the payment he received for his wickedness, Judas bought a field; there he fell headlong, his body burst open and all his intestines spilled out"
  
  Doesn't change your point really I just think it's a fun inconsistency to think about. One option so much weirder than the other.
