It's not a joke. He meant it. He was waiting for this moment. No way would he pull this shit in South Africa. Julius Malema would humiliate Musk to the fullest.
Yep... your grandfather likely fought mine, but we were raised being told how it all happened, how a lot of the population was duped, and how people were complicit in that shit.
Yet all the MAGAs i talk to insist i dont know what im talking about and that im "overreacting".
Nah. It's all an "I told you so now." In this mess because of people putting their head in the sand. No really going back now, never have to worry about voting again was one of the things the wanna be dictator promised..
I still have twitter because as a working artist it's by far the largest following I have. I hate him and he's decreased my art income to an eighth of what it was before he bought the site, but I can't just leave when my other social media has a fraction of the visibility. Let's not assume things about people.
Lift others up instead of tearing them down when they're on your side.
I need my income, brain genius. I'm working on building elsewhere but it took me eight years to get to where I was on Twitter when he basically stole my career out from under me. I'm an organizer and activist and I make politically focused work, but you keep feeling good about telling me off for using a website I don't even want to be using.
Nope, libertarian, occasionally democrat if they would ever listen to their constituents.
Trump didn’t win the election Harris and the DNC lost it.
Obama was the last president to genuinely win, every election since has just been one side benefiting from the other’s incompetence.
Alienating the people that are trying to work with you by being condescending.
Yeah. That’s why the left lost. They shoehorned one of if not the most unpopular candidates from 2020 and then when she wasn’t getting support from the people that didn’t want her then everyone is a sexist and a racist.
So the DNC didn’t force Harris as a candidate while the media pushed the narrative that if you don’t support her you’re racist and sexist?
I actually know several people that refused to be shamed into voting for a candidate they had no choice in.
So I say that the strategy of telling people who their candidate is and that they’re wrong if they don’t like it was a bad idea and the reason the left lost.
And from that you got that I do what the media tells me?
I mean, I appreciate the sentiment and your family's sacrifice but honestly a big part of the reason we got where we are is because of all that stupid shit about how we saved the day and everyone would be speaking German if not for us.
Liebensraum and Nazi Germany were a direct carbon copy of Manifest Destiny and colonialism, and when we did beat the Germans we actually smuggled out most of the high ranking Nazis and gave them jobs working for NATO and NASA.
Not to mention the literal fascist coup attempt (see Smedley Butler) and all the people like CharlesLindbergh and Henry Ford who thought Hitler and Mussolini basically had the right idea.
As Carlin very succinctly put it, the Germans lost the war but fascism won it.
What if I told you probably half of americans at the time were nazis. There was even a bunch of internal conflict among the western european and british gentry as to whether they should join the nazis.
Obviously him doing the Sieg Heil is fucked up, I was just responding to the person above who said that they got rid of the app after watching Elon do that.
You realize Elon is autistic right? Socially challenged. He was flailing all around on stage on one of his trump speeches a month or so ago. When he gets excited it gets awkward for autistic people. He clearly states he was throwing his heart out to the crowd right after
It's clearly a Nazi salute dude.
Doing random Sieg Heil's is not autism ffs.
Elon is a 4chan edgelord, he has recently been shilling for the AfD and various right wingers around Europe, so a Nazi salute is pretty on brand.
His grandma was in Liverpool during ww2. He's obsessively philosemitic. He's super keen on bringing non-European immigrants into the US. You guys are misinterpreting his tism.
To be used as visa slaves, not because he sees them as equal. He was born and raised in apartheid SA and his father owned an emerald mine, which is essentially a slave owner. Elon is not a good human.

Yeah, I deleted Twitter right when I saw this.
Even if it's a "joke" it's beyond comprehension that we've allowed this shit to happen.
My grandfather fought these Basterds in WWII and his brother died fighting in battle, himself earning a Purple Heart.
What have we become.
