      It’s more that because of elon’s single-mindedness and pettiness that we can measure his effect on the platform and extrapolate that to other social media. So this would give us a good basis of measurement for the forced memes that big tech companies want us to spread when they aren’t being so obvious.

    mind that he was willing to do all this together until he couldn’t get enough shit from mango mussolini for his pockets companies. he can choke on a bag of dildos after he gets his nuremberg trial.

    if these people, all of them, including the Dems who capitulate, owners of the media companies that censor in their name and push their fascist agenda, all ICE employees, don’t get their own nuremberg trials, and examples aren’t made of them, the US might as well throw the towel and declare itself a lawless land and a failed state.

        Please, trump is just the lighting rod for your rage at a system that is in the final stages of being taken over by economic forces. He’s the finger puppet on the hand of the general elite. Just because he’s a moron doesn’t mean he’s not your equivalent of a WWE heel.

      Fuck! Nail on the head with that comparison! It’s literally like the worst white trash Nazi bullshit episode from Jerry Springer is currently squatting in the White House.

    So a dementia-ridden ketamine addict is trying to talk shit to a dementia-ridden amnesia sufferer.

    Sounds exactly like republicans.

        It’s not something that’s been reported, I’m just making the claim based on his absurd actions.

    Stopped clocks, etc.

    Eel on musk is completely correct.

    The fact that he’s correct on this point does not make him a good person. He’s still an absolutely magnificent shitbag.

    It doesn’t matter.

    If someone unearthed video of Trump raping an 11-year-old, Republicans would love him even more, his approval ratings would go up, leaders on the “religious right” would explain that it’s all Biblical, and Trump would successfully sue for the profits from video sales.

      If you truly believe this, you need to take a step back from one or more echo chambers, because you’ve lost touch with reality.

      Trump waffling on the topic, without any ‘hard’ evidence, has already caused momentum in the opposite direction.

        But it’s just performative resistance. They still vote to give him everything he wants every time without exception.

          That’s your assumption, not a fact. If hard evidence of Donald Trump literally raping a child was made public during his last campaign, I’d bet my life savings he wouldn’t be President today.

      I don’t like the presumption of video sales for CSAM.

      Edit: not a dig at you, but of the unpleasant viability of that statement.

      There’s pictures of him with Maxwell floating around that he’s been trying really hard to erase, right? It wouldn’t surprise me if he’s on the list himself and feeling confident that he’s not going to get fucked over because he knows there’s too many powerful people who have no interest in ever seeing those files released around or because he and the Elonjugend just happened to get rid of any evidence that could implicate him.

      Anyway, he’s only doing this because he’s mad that Trump doesn’t want to play Tesla salesman anymore.
