Alt: Prince John villain from the Disney animated Robin Hood who Musk is emulating, raising taxes (tariffs, gutting social programs to give himself more government subsidies, etc) to pay himself more from taxes, the literal intro to the character in the movie is him fawning over a bag of money chanting "Taxes! Taxes!"

And they just announced that they’re going to kill Robin Hood so it’s pretty dead on

More like Prince John, the phoney King of England.

I feel like that's the pun with his name to begin with? Robin Hood, the Robbin' Hood?

Elon Musk, Elon Musk, dismantling the State;
Elon Musk, Elon Musk, thinks he's really great;
Takes from the poor,
Gives to the rich;
Stupid bitch,

Stupid bitch,

Stupid bitch,.

[–] davidagain@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Exactly that.

Don’t even give him that much credit, he’s merely Prince John.

Robbin the people

I hate this picture. It makes him look cute.

[–] PapaStevesy@lemmy.world 11 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I hate it because it's not a reverse Robin Hood outfit, it's just a Robin Hood outfit.

[–] Dultas@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Red with a green feather then?

[–] PapaStevesy@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Or is it a wide-brimmed visor with a...fish scale...or something?

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 9 points 2 days ago

That's just a regular robber
