      Well to be fair, and I do not personally believe this is the right thing, no one said democracy needed to be inclusive. In fact for most of history democracy has been the opposite. So it checks out.

        Is there a form of government that is inclusive? Seems to me that the practice of working to ensure that underserved demographics are represented runs counter to the thinking of the average power hungry dickhead who gravitates toward politics

      Exactly.

      According to NPR :

      https://www.npr.org/2025/02/06/nx-s1-5289337/elon-musk-doge-treasury

      “You could not pay me to marry outside of my ethnicity,” the account wrote in September. “Normalize Indian hate,” a separate post from that month read.

      In July of last year, the account posted: “Just for the record, I was racist before it was cool.”

      In other posts, from December, the account pushed for repealing the Civil Rights Act and shared: “I just want a eugenic immigration policy, is that too much to ask.”

    Remember when he polled Twitter about whether or not he should stop being CEO and the majority said yes and he ignored it anyway?

    Now suddenly polls on Twitter matter?

    You mean bots, right? Polling bots. Also this doesn’t account for all the people that have blocked you or don’t even use twitter anymore. It’s like if my friends all told me they didn’t like Chinese food and my conclusion is that nobody likes Chinese food.

    You mean he polled a number out of his ass. He doesn’t need to go through the effort of asking anyone to get an actionable result. The results from bots and racists would have been similar anyway.
