Royal Society decides not to take disciplinary action against Elon Musk
-
Royal Society: "We grant you a seat in this society but we do not grant you the title of royalty."
Elon: "This is outrageous! That's unfair!"
-
Pussies.
-
I wonder why they consider an investigation likely to be harmful?
What the fuck is going on in the Royal Academy?Nine times out of ten it's kid fucking

What the fuck is going on in the Royal Academy?More likely they know that Musk has a well-documented habit of frivolous litigation and spreading lies about anyone that gets under his skin. They've decided it's not worth the fight

The Royal Society resides in London, so Musk can't make frivolous charges like in USA.
-
Membership confers little, and offers the ability to attend afaiu. He ain't attending anything anyway. He isn't voting on boards/leadership. He can, and is, being ignored rather than risk the wrath. Because plenty of other society members should also be fucking kicked out too, but if they only do one...
The real fix is likely to be a fixed term membership. Every five years you need reapproval

The cave diver Vernon Unsworth lived in Thailand, so Musk just tried to spread the rumour that he was a paedophile instead. And unfortunately Musk now has a bigger following and platform than ever
To be clear I don't necessarily agree with the Society's decision. I just think there is a pretty obvious possible motive without the Society having skeletons in the closet, regardless of whether it actually does or not

Nazis, got it.

How can you be in the society and not be a royal?

That little irregular melanom is not doing anything. Why bother cutting it out? It is growing a bit every year, but its not like the cancer spread yet, is it?
-
We just need to start calling him "Royal society fellow Musk" everywhere...
-
Fuck you nazi collaborating assholes.
Kick the fucker out.
Royal Society is now a fascist org.
-
They've just confirmed they're a willful Nazi Bar.

I never took it as an accusation, more of an insult. I honestly don't remember if he doubled down or not, but I do seem to recall he backed off after threats to sue. Dangerous insult to use. - if you call someone an asshole, it's pretty clear it's hyperbole. Pedophile, not so much.

He doubled down enough to hire a PI to investigate Unsworth and to tell Buzzfeed that they were "defending a child rapist" when they approached him for a comment, which is doubling down enough for me. He did claim it was all jokes and insults when Unsworth (unsuccessfully) tried to sue him for defamation

Fair enough, thanks for the reminder.

"The view of council is that making judgments on the acceptability of the views and actions of fellows, particularly those that might be regarded as political, could do more harm than good to the society and the cause of science in general. Council believes that disciplinary proceedings should not be initiated on such grounds,” Smith wrote."
So Nazi salute is called political views nowadays? I think people should quit the society en masse.
