  2. Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
  3. You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
  4. Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
  5. Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.

I mean he doesn't really any roots or supporters among MAGA like e.g. Steve Bannon. Musk "joined" MAGA shortly before the elections, but MAGA is already... over 10 years old? Musk wasn't part of that and doesn't really "speak to" MAGA either. The people he appealed to didn't come from MAGA. It was clear to MAGAts as well that he's just an opportunist and a useful tool. They liked him because he's an absurd clown that makes liberals cry. @pyre@lemmy.world

funny, all the crying I've seen has come from him. literally bought a social media site to use it almost exclusively for constant crying.
