Good luck in November, America. Seems you'll need it more than ever.
The world needs it.
Democracy already lost to capitalism. Authoritarianism is the natural progression of allowing a minority to control most of humanity's wealth/power/resources — a return to the mean that applied for 99% of recorded history.
I was going to send my drone to Ukraine but I might need it here. Hilarious the maga folks think they’re the only ones with weapons
I am fairly sure Dump will win. I'm already prepping my brain for 4 years of idiots, scheming, sexism, racism, and all hail God. I'm sorry everyone, we have a lot of raging dumb idiots here
4 years of idiots, scheming, sexism, racism, and all hail God.
If you think it will end after your years, you're not prepping anywhere near hard enough.
I am out of the country before the election. Fuck it. I'm done with this country.
Where are you heading?
I bought a little bluewater sailboat about a year ago and went through most of my life savings getting it ready. Don't get me wrong, my "life savings" was pretty paltry for 30+ years of employment, and it's a really small boat. Next month I'll be leaving the west coast and heading west.
That sounds amazing--and terrifying! You're one of those real life "I bought a boat and just went people." While I couldn't do a boat open ocean, one day I hope to emulate you and do something like the Great Loop, and other adventures. Fair winds and following seas.
Hey, thanks. Yeah, I sailed a lot as a kid, then just didn't for several decades. It was always my dream to just go, but there was no way I could afford it. Then I found a pretty good deal, looked at my life and this country and just kind of said fuck it. It would be a blast to do the Great Loop! I hope you get to do it.
This was the plan the whole time. Duh
Right, 98% of it wasn't anything about making money, improving the service, building something new, or allowing free speech.
He just wanted to make sure Twitter said what he wanted it to.
It's been wildly successful on that front. Way way way more successful than, say, Truth Social.
Billionaires buying media. Just one more thing showing that democracy and insane wealth inequality are not compatible.
So cut his fucking security clearance already for fucks sake what the fuck even is this pussy shit.
If drug use and election disinformation aren't enough to kill his contracts, then the stupid fucking Democrats have no fucking balls.
Next week- Elon blames Trump's loss on voter fraud instigated by Jews working with Black people.
It’s true, I saw some tweets calling musk a genius.
It feels like why he wanted the site lol. The site is just a few steps above posting on truth social at this point.
When I become a billionaire I hope you guys don’t let me become just a trash human like basically every billionaire.
You typically need to be a trash human being to begin with in order to become a billionaire.
But you have to be a trash human in order to become a billionaire.
Yes, that was his goal.
