All these rich fucks have really let their money and power get to their head. It's like the world survives because of them and their shitty companies.

Surprised how quickly Zuck and the others followed suit under Musk. A line formed very quickly to kiss Trump's ass.

Mortem Tyrannis

They all wanted to go there, but some level of shame prevented it until Musk led the way. Everyone of these techbro oligarchs is trash; we'll be better off when they are gone.

spj54.bsky.social•49 days ago

trump and Mush are leading a revolution of great wealth over those they only see as cattle to be exploited for their authoritarian lust for power and greed. A few people stripped of everything can be dealt with if they seek retribution. (1)

spj54.bsky.social•49 days ago

A large population of a country that has been stripped of everything is a very dangerous population who, if they seek retribution. Can turn into a very bloody affair. Am in no way supporting violence, just stating that people can only be pushed to far.

how quickly did she have that shirt made after he wore his, wow

lmhinh.bsky.social•50 days ago

and it still looks better than his

daniskitchen.bsky.social•50 days ago

after some googling I discovered that he wore this in fall 2024 so she's had a few months 🤣

Fuck that guy

pwnallthethings.bsky.social•50 days ago

For anyone wanting a hand with the latin there, Zuck's one says "aut Zuck aut nihil", a reference to "aut Caesar aut nihil" ("without Ceasar, nothing"). Jay's T-shirt is "mundus sine caesaribus" ("a world without Caesars")

'aut Caesar aut nihil' is more 'either emperor or nothing); it's Cesare Borgia and OMFG Zuck quoting a Borgia is chef's kiss. the same kind of phrasing as 'Vegas or bust', 'my way or the highway'

without would be sine Caesarem nihil

marypcbuk.bsky.social•50 days ago

oh, the other obvious example of that kind of phrasing: give me liberty or give me death

marypcbuk.bsky.social•50 days ago

'sine Caesarem' nihil is giving me 'apres moi le deluge' vibes

essaywells.bsky.social•50 days ago

Aut caesar aut nihil means "either caesar or nothing", i.e. anything less than becoming supreme is failure, which means Zuck doesn't understand the phrase he's using (Zuck or nothing, but he's already Zuck, what are we even doing here)

lfillingham.bsky.social•48 days ago

When was that pic taken? Doesn't look like current Zuck. Current Zuck has accepted the primacy of Trump, which may mean transitively the supremacy of Musk. (A hard pill to swallow, Zuck thinking "Why couldn't I be co-president?"

syfuhs.net•50 days ago

Can you imagine a world without Zuck?

I can.

Zuck just keeps getting cringier. Love this shirt from Jay 💗

kkowboy.bsky.social•50 days ago

The larger point here would be don't let any one person have all the power whatever their shirt happens to say. Bluesky still isn't actually decentralized. Mastodon is.

joshuajfriedman.com•50 days ago

I mean, they aren't all of the way there yet, but they're working hard to get there and have made notable progress in a short time

kkowboy.bsky.social•50 days ago

Their architecture isn't actually all that conducive for that goal though (see https://dustycloud.org/blog/how-decentralized-is-bluesky/) and the Free Our Feeds effort seems to have pretty much imploded as well.

dmm1957.bsky.social•49 days ago

She is the CEO of Bluesky.

intrepidintellect.bsky.social•49 days ago

It's like these assholes popped out of a history book. He's fucking it up to weaken us. He's trying to make it hard for anyone to resist. That money you think they're trying to save for the government, is just enough to pay for a civil war. They're making us pay for our own demise! Genius.

… and billionaires

bojbojboj.bsky.social•49 days ago

is also a world without queens.

joea64.bsky.social•50 days ago

If I remember my Latin, it actually translates more literally as "A World Without Caesars" - but admittedly it's a distinction without a real difference.

jennvg.bsky.social•50 days ago

Caeser is a title like Tsar or Kaiser so I think king is fine but my seventh grade Latin is unreliable at best.

drgeophysics.bsky.social•50 days ago

Ronald Reagan loved that kleptocracy eh? He would be so happy.

schnuddig.bsky.social•49 days ago

Trump wants to support Musk and will buy a brand new Tesla... 😂🤣 This shows again that he is a bad businessman 🤗 Not usable as a man, as a businessman and by no means as a king. America is ruled by a narcissistic, stupid and hateful garbage troupe

refrigeratormother.bsky.social•49 days ago

I imagine a world without Caesars or kings often.

Happy Ides of March week!

fry69.dev•50 days ago

I'd also accept

cameron.pfiffer.org•49 days ago
