It's not just that Musk's "DOGE" is fascist, techbro capitalist, and illegal, that's the problem. It's ALSO a huge problem he has hired 25 YEAR OLD JUNIOR DEVS to write the most important code in the government! On top of corruption, let's add incompetence!

Mixing leftist/progressive politics with far-right or right-hatched conspiracy theories - even if "just a bit" - I don't think is a very good brew, and may even be dangerous. Esp. if some of the cited sources are from Supremacist Racists.

Criminal justice should be about making reparations for victims and healing communities more than about trying to "punish" someone so much that they are utterly destroyed and broken - only to be released again on that same community. Oh yeah and if there's no victim it shouldn't be a crime.

Cruelty is never a good policy. Ever. That's not something I will negotiate on or concede in any circumstance.
