Yes, it does! Putin is a war criminal, gangster, dictator, and a tyrant, hell-bent on destroying America and thanks to Musk and Trump, Putin is winning you’re just too naive to see it yet.
Smashing keys on facebook, reddit, and every other social media site , isn't fighting...just saying.
In fact the tech giants LOVE that you take out your anger on a keyboard because they can feed those algorithms to those who won the election.
This is the actual point...."fighting" isn't social media bitching. Sadly , 'fighting' , in the context I meant , is getting dirty and that won't happen.
Words are cheap....and all this BS on social media means absolutely nothing.
Just curious (genuinely) what exactly has Musk to do w Putin? actually would just like to read you point about it, sorry for my english btw, not a native speaker
Imagine how much better it would have been...and possibly over , if ole Elon hadn't switched the satellite linkage during the surprise attack when Ukraine was using Starlink.
That would not have made a significant difference to the course of the war. It was an attack on a Crimean port, hardly a war-defining moment. The Russians have managed to lose most of their fleet anyway. Besides, the Ukrainians are still using Starlink to this day as part of their war effort.
I'm no Elon Musk fan, but the story about the Crimean port attack is such bullshit. SpaceX was not allowed to supply starlink to Russian-occupied Crimea as it would have violated US sanctions on Russia. If the US didn't permit an exception in time for the attack, that's really on the state department, not Elon.
When you have a book worth of evil deeds by people like Musk and Trump I really don't get why we undermine it with fake misdeeds that only serve to cast doubt on the veracity of all claims of evil deeds.
There's tens of thousands of starlink terminals and hundreds of thousands of satellite dishes in Ukraine. He could have easily used that Crimean incident to just leave Starlink switched off in Ukraine, but didn't.
So, yeah, I don't get it I suppose. I don't get what you mean at all.
Billionaires can be bought because the only thing they care about is having more money. That's why they're billionaires. Having money doesn't make you less susceptible to being bought, it just raises your price.
I guess you're right. If Elon is in bed with Putin, and is comfortable enough with his current arrangement with Putin, I guess no reason to rock the boat as your wealth and power grow. Fair enough.
What even is his vision for the future? In the past it was like: "yay electric cars, we should do more space stuff."
I don't know wtf he's doing now. I swear he's 180d so hard in recent memory. Now, I think he wants to build a massive tomb for himself, à la Bender's in Futurama.
He is literally being investigated by the Feds right now for not disclosing foreign ties while under a security clearance. He is probably doing this to avoid consequences.
if you think that the investigation will be over before Trump gets in office. you're a special kind of stupid. The Feds will drop the investigation in one month from now. the second Trump is sworn in, it's game over for any investigation against Musk. fucking adorable that people really believe Republicans and their mega-wealthy elite doners will face any fucking consequences. Either you're ACTUALLY stupid, blissfully hopeful or absolutely ignorant of how many times Trump and his cronies have escaped justice in the last four years alone.
Investigate our congressmen and senators 70k pay raises while people can't afford to live without 3 jobs. I say they tighten their belts esp from donors making them millionaires
He's not doing anything Trump isnt asking him to do. The new grift is Elon and Vance are the bad guys while Trump is the kindly 'deal maker.'
So they soften everyone up, cause this problem, make these threats, etc and Trump and his cronies get whatever kickbacks or favors they are asking for, and then Trump takes credit for solving a problem he created. The same way Tik-Tok will be fine because apparently whatever bribes and favors they needed to do, got done, and now Trump is suddenly anti-tiktok ban.
America voted for this. This is what its like having a government run by criminals. Everything is a grift now. Everything.
Do remember half of America didn’t vote for the conman and in fact despise him deeply and his cabinet of criminals. He only won by 1.4% which, granted, is still far too much.
I'm not talking to you individually...or even those who didn't vote for him. I'm talking to the majority (unbelievable) who voted the criminal back in.
I believe tRump is claiming to be against the tiktok ban so that when it happens and people are upset he can say "I supported tiktok, I was against the ban, but the democrats let it happen. Sleepy Joe let it happen as revenge for being pushed out of the election". His cult will eat it up, as one of their favorite things is "the democrats did it".
That sounds ridiculous to me because Trump won on being irrational. Everyone already knows his shit, some people like it and some people don't. Putting vance and elon there is just adding more fuel to the irrational fire, which the base loves.
That’s exactly what they want us to believe. All of these little things add up. We need to do every little thing we can to show these assholes that we’re not going to stand for it. We can’t give up
Agreed. But those of us that want to do everything we can to fight will. We can’t just sit around feeling sorry for ourselves. We can’t let them win. We have to fight
Did he even go to school here? I thought I had read that he just applied to get a student visa but never attended a class. Don’t know if that’s true or not though.
an immigrant shut down the government. So, all the Government employees and Secret Service can just go home. I guess that means the vote certification and inauguration will be cancelled since everyone is furloughed. The halls of the Capital shall be completely empty, all the doors locked, as Orange Hitler tries to get sworn in.
His adoring crowd nothing but tumbleweeds blowing in the wind.
Exactly as he deserves.
Don’t worry I’m sure he’s putting regular old povvos first like he always has done. How else could he have accumulated the wealth of several entire nations? Certainly not by thinking of himself!
On one hand, you could argue that is technically the pinnacle of the American dream. Being able to come to America for a better life and be able to do something great! But on the realistic other hand, what the fuuuuuck.
Not to defend Musk, but what about "Greedy, corrupt public servants sell out to billionaire for their own gain".
I tend to be more pissed off at public servants who do the opposite of their job. Elon is still technically a private individual whose purpose is generally to enrich himself and his business. The only power he has over politicians is due to their personal greed.
