Free speech for Musk means Musk gets to decide what people are allowed to say.
Hopefully the outcome of the French investigation will be an international arrest warrant.
eh, can see how those are working great for the powerful people (examples: putin, bibi, the libya guy)
Trump doesn't mind Elon being the president in the press, because they convinced him this time around that he's the fully insulated mob boss. Layers of others around him getting their hands dirty, so he claims "oh, I didn't know that. That's bad, you should probably arrest whoever did that crime".
That is if our systems survive them flooding the zone with bullshit and making weak attempts to dismantle them.
My Chrystal ball says that Elon keeps realizing agenda 2025 until the resistance within their own ranks becomes unbearable. While Elon makes news Trump makes legislation to fuck over whoever he can. Only then, goat Elon gets scaped by savior Donald to appease Maga and everything is in shambles.
My money is on Vance removing Trump via the 25th amendment in spring of 2027, then firing Musk.
Why would he fire Musk?
So he can be the guy who saved America. If he keeps his head down and looks like the sane one while Trump and Musk go full Nazi and he removes them from power, he'll have an insanely high approval rating, even if he doesn't roll back anything they did. He'd probably win the 2028 election in a landslide, and since he'd have served just under half of Trump's term he'd be eligible for re-election in 2032.
Space Karen.
What a fucking snowflake.
He is really, REALLY becoming fucking absolutely unhinged VERY fast. He is trying to suppress any form of overlook VERY fast and very aggressively. He hasn't acted like this before. While it is expected, he needs to be told that he can go to hell.
What I fear is that he won't be asking for people to be fired, he will be soon asking for arrests and I am very, VERY confident he will brazenly calling for hits on people very openly.
always has been, he is the son of a slaver in apartheid SA and iirc grandson of a nazi. of course he is racist too.
now that he is the literal dictator of the biggest empire in the world, i don't think he needs to worry about softening it anymore. its logical that fascism will serve him judging from the... gestures hes been making. or the casual fascist shit hes been saying for years at this point.
i think your hunch is correct though. he didnt bother climbing onto that throne not to use it. the silver lining is that he already showed himself incompetent.
he's going full (kan)ye
The free speech absolutist at work
zero chance that dude resigned because of those tweets..
He realized how far over his head he was, and rather than admitting that to his overlord musk, he takes this lucky break, whines about harassment, and resigned.
when i saw the pictures the first thing that came to mind was how fucking terrified some of these kids might be. imagine just coming out of school and being appointed to be one of the main analysts for an oversight department to your favorite dictator in a major world power.
then getting access granted to major, and i say major, governmental systems with the expectation you fix it along with a handful of other kids with absolutely no prior experience doing it?
I have no sympathy for any of them, and neither should anyone else. The choices they have made will result in the suffering of millions. Whatever fate they ultimately meet will proportionally be infinitely merciful by comparison. They do not get some special dispensation for being naive.
It is possible to be both immature and abjectly evil. That is, most likely why Musk picked these young men. They have the hallmarks of sociopathic tendencies with the inexperience to be led into a fucking minefield. Here is hoping they trigger some explosions that don't take a billion of us with them.
Musk is more disgusting than anyone else other than his orange bf
He needs to be shot. Idgaf who sees this. Come see me.
I got warnings and a ban on reddit for saying he needs to be subject to capital punishment. Which I believe he does. Musk needs to be arrested and sentenced to death. He needs to be made an example of in that manner.
Yeah, main reason I dumped Reddit.

(Others being unsolicited photos of medical waste)
Huh?
Reddit has the great feature to show you post from subs like r/medicalgore. Doesn't even matter if you muted the sub or clicked "show me fewer posts like this", it just comes back
I got banned for saying all 1%ers need to be Luigid. 🤷♀️
The fucker started carrying one of his kids everywhere with him after Mangione did a Luigi on a POS. The poor tyke's name is "X Æ A-Xii". People are saying the kid is being used as a human shield...
Not that I am discouraging you or anyone from joining the Mario Party. It just highlights the sheer depravity that is Musk.
You see the shit kanye west wrote today?
Billionaires and their boot licking lap dogs are all beyond sick, its time we sharpen the guillotines, they live like royalty on our backs. Ive been on a strike for the last 5 years living in abject poverty because i will not work for wages not even providing me an existence worth living for. I would rather be broke and free than live as a slave deluded to believe in an illusory freedom while our lives are controlled by those who spend more money on weekend vacations than you or I could earn in a dozen consecutive lifetimes. All while dozens of homes per every unhoused person sit empty to artificially increase the value of property to the point where even renting a shitty 1 bedroom apartment is unaffordable and 1/3 of all food produced is thrown away because it cant be sold fast enough to make someone else more fucking money. I would rather die free and destitute then wake up and be psychologically whipped into obedience to make someone else passive income while i despise every second of my existence and wake up feeling psychological dread after the brief 1 or 2 day respite of the weekend or the 8-16 hours of sleep food and household chores between shifts. Thats not living its slavery with extra steps all these sick deluded fascist fucks and this system theyve built by destroying the social progress made in the 40’a 50’s and 60’s and worked tirelessly to eradicate to install a technocratic feudalist surveillance and police state it all needs to be violently dismantled and burned to the ground. Ballot box idealist bullshit doesnt work, they own the ballot boxes and the ballots, they own the news outlets they own the printing presses putting out educational material and have abysmally lowered the standards of what constitutes education today. There is only one side of the political spectrum in America. The democratic parry is right wing and blatantly enables the far right super fascist gop. But weve been so dumbed down that we believe the democrats are left, they arent, we live in a class dictatorship. There is no true democracy without economic democracy. I am MaGGA- MAke Guillotines Great Again.
A racist clock is right twice a year.
Nah I've ignored him ever since his kardashian days. Not surprised by anything he would say though
Its basically a 50 tweet diatribe of the worst shit fascist billionaires could say. Basically poor people are garbage hitler was great and fuck the jews and thst he wants to colab with p diddy cause he is his hero. It almost makes elon’s fascist salute look mild.

3yrs ago, I was 39, if you found a racist tweet from 3 yrs ago, I should be responsible, who cares if 3 yrs ago the kid was in diapers and shouldn't have had access to the internet, that is likely a good enough reason they should never have been allowed near government systems. Wtf did Elon do, walk into a highschool graduation like "you boys wanna see the inside of the government?"
A short while ago (like less than a month) he asked for people who are willing to work for no pay and are super diligent. What he was looking for were people who were rich enough to not need to be paid (their families anyway) and at the same time were his complete and absolute simps and will do ANYTHING for him and to prove their worth to the guy.
All of his young cronies need to be arrested and given at least a mandatory minimum of 20 years and a lifetime prohibition on using computers.
For no pay??? Lmaooo, bunch of fuckin' Pick Me's
Hah. You think it's no pay. They went after OPM and the Treasury first for a reason.
How about no and fuck you, fascist.
Oh the little snowflake is feeling hurt...
Can we fire Musk... into the sun?
That's a lot of ∆v, can we fire him out of the solar system instead?
We should fire him into an irretrievable orbit with enough food, water, and oxygen for months. Put cameras everywhere inside the capsule and live stream his descent into madness as he runs out of supplies.

Musk is officially part of the government now, so this literally is an attack on free speech
Not that any conservative cares.
they keep saying he’s part of the government, but congress never vetted and confirmed him… he doesn’t have security clearance….
They. Do not care. About the law.
Why does this keep needing to be said?
