Lord Vader in our own galaxy

Darth Vader was a master intimindator. Now his likeness and an army of willing storm troopers walk among us. Personally, I prefer Yoda. BTW, after watching the attached video closely, you might see there's a suggestive inference within the 44-50 second mark. We do love to sexualize all forms of violence. When used cleverly, it does get traction. How much do we love, value, and exploit male potency?  

Why can't he sell all of his cars?
Darth Elon with government spars!
Since his ships explode
Tesla's board wants him stowed
On the Space-X Death Star to Mars

Hahah this is fun! Made me laugh! Lol you have great sense of humor but sadly thats what we can do; turn every questionable thing to humor. Altho i had high hopes for trump when he took over…i am not sure whats goin to happen but all i can do is hope for the best but it is SOME trump supporters and their extremist ways that are most scary for me! Almost like struck by a cult! Pleasure reading … you are very good at these: sending you light always

I’d say the X Twitter board would like to see Elon take his kitchen sink prop up on that rocket ship too, brilliant and sarcastically cutting Duke, just like all good Limericks should be, All fired up! cheers David

Thanks David. We can only try to match the erosion of democratic rule with more biting satire. It's just one small form of resistance, but we should not be silenced. Smiles!!

Duke this one has me in stitches, the image of the White House and a Telsa and the Starship explosion. Folks won't take too much more, Tesla charge stations burning, protests and it's not summer yet, I'm predicting upheaval like we've never seen! I wish I had been more of a Star Wars fan. The good news; NASA has rescued the astronauts Space X crew. yay ~ Happy St Paddy's Day! :D

Anaya, let's hope they get back OK...their going to be coming back on a Space X capsule so we're praying for them. I did see the French suggested the statue be returned since we don't deserve it any more. That was amusing and a statement about what's happening here. Let's hope there are many non-violent protests to the rapid erosion of democratic and lawful rule in our own country! I wrote something yesterday, which I will likely post this afternoon on this subject. Take care and smiles!!

Duke, this is another fantastic limerick poem that hilariously exposes Elon Musk's difficult ventures in both the automobile and aerospace industries, implying a feeling of chaos and instability in his firms. It implies that his big efforts are scrutinized and tested, drawing parallels between his endeavors and the fictitious universe of "Star Wars." The poem uses humorous and satirical language. Terms like "spars," "stowed," and "Death Star" combine modern corporate jargon with science fiction images, heightening the humorous impact.

Thanks SP. It's all rather remarkable to watch. The poor guy basically has "all the money in the world," and I ask myself what's he doing financing misery. All his political projects don't seem to stem from self-satisfaction or feeling good about himself. Rather, they seem to come from a dark unsatisfied ego that his exercise of power will never take care of. His lack of appreciation for others seems astounding really. His case presents a lesson about the evils of unrestrained power and money.

This reminds me of something I wrote a while ago. I’ll look for it. Trump’s helping him sell them but he sure had a hard time getting in and out of the car. He’ll want a tank next to drive over whatever annoys him tomorrow.

Lin, it really seems like something out of a movie with good and bad sides. Really incredible how show business affects how Trump portrays himself. He loves intimidation and being on stage with people bowing down all around. I wish they would both go to Mars and stay there. Smiles!!

hey he's 'sold' one to trumpety - well I guess he needs to recoup some of the money he 'donated' and with the tarriffs the shares have tumbled - talk about trump shooting musk rat in the back! lets hope the new car doesn't 'explode' or burst into flames like some vehicles have done - and his rockets seem to be going the same way - oops! hugs jan xx

Jan, what he's doing reflects a sick ego. No business person in their right mind would destroy a brand by doing what he's doing. He is some kind of sick control freak. More and more people are saying that his ketamine habit is affecting his judgment. Let's put it this way...I wouldn't let him be my chauffeur right now. Smiles!!
