This is the "getting bought out and gutted by the most bottom of the barrel private equity firm" experience and hundreds of thousands of people get to experience it all at once and in public. Surreal

Elon Musk derives his power to cause profound harm from his companies. Those that not only support Tesla, SpaceX, et al. but cause these companies to thrive enable that harm. This sounds extreme, but we’re not getting anywhere with anything short of extreme.

Two weeks from now the crew of a nuclear submarine are going to see this email and the subsequent one firing them all.

"The thing about pendulums is that if you forcibly shove them one direction hard enough, they just stay that way forever" - People who barely won an election 3 months ago

Two years ago, doing a sieg heil in public was an immediately fireable offense for every single at will employee in the US. Now if you loudly say "Doing a sieg heil makes you a Nazi and that is bad" is the kind of political speech that corporations hate for their employees to participate in

"Print up all your code and put it on my desk" but for hundreds of thousands of federal workers

"What would you have done as Hitler rose to power?" is an old trope but like, my dawg, here it is. You finally get to answer that question. It is no longer a pure theoretical

The thing about advance compliance that people need to learn is that whatever you do to placate these guys will never be enough. They'll keep adding new things that you must do because they now know you're a pushover, and at the end of the day, they are just bullies that get off to cruelty.

Priority number one is that they want to genocide Trans people. We cannot let this happen

Elon Musk is a Nazi. He is a rapist and an abuser. He is profoundly stupid and uncurious. He has no business acumen or technical know how. His only skill is raising capital during periods of speculative economic excess Like Trump, his rise to power is a direct rebuke of Post Reagan neoliberalism

Data rolling over. Trump and Elon freezing business activity as they create so much future policy uncertainty. The find out part is getting close.

Say what you will about the Pope but his last significant actions while ambulatory was calling JD Vance a dumb piece of shit and a fake Catholic so you gotta give him props for that

We are going to see lots of kids in Middle and High schools doing Nazi salutes in the coming months and I do not know how society can respond to this and survive without completely destroying the GOP root to stem

Lots of liberals defended SpaceX over the years by insisting that the "Brilliant" COO Gwynne Shotwell was the "adult in the room" WSJ showed last year that she helped administer his creepy, intern rape and harassment breeding cult at the company www.wsj.com/business/elo...

Musk has 100 kids +/- a few dozen. lots of NDAs. It's only a matter of time before this comes out, this has been persistent and well sourced gossip for awhile

Camp outs in front of their houses are gonna become a thing fyi
