Internet disinformation is making this regime seem far more popular than it is. Don’t let that bullshit dishearten you, that’s what the fascists want. The majority is not cool with this, and we can stop it.
It's hard to believe that "the majority is not cool with this", because that fucker did win the elections. The American people voted for him, how could it be that the majority doesn't want exactly what he's doing?
There was at least some fuckery involved in their win, admittedly.
Gerrymandering and them nullifying voter registrations definitely had a pronounced impact.
Indeed. And I was referring to Trump's weird rambling that "Elon Musk knows 'those vote counting computers'". There is also this report pointing to vote manipulation in Clark County, NV : https://electiontruthalliance.org/clark-county%2C-nv (and hopefully more reports to come)
I’ll note that he didn’t win a majority, just a larger majority than Harris. This win was narrower than his first one iirc, the swing state bullshit just made it seem more dramatic
None of this would've happened without the electoral college bullshit.
Because the voting system of USA is bad at reflecting what people really want. It was designed from beginning to not be fair.
I think Proportional representation was a checkbox on some of the ballots in the USA.
It is so much better.
I mean not voting is often/in many places the most popular American presidential candidate, obviously not just because plenty are stupid or apathetic, but also because it's been made pretty hard to vote in many places.
It's more accurate to say that the majority didn't (manage to) vote against him. So the conclusion is more like the majority didn't care enough to prevent this, instead of the majority wanted this.
To you it might feel no different but seen from the outside it very much is different. The consequences are still bad, but your consequence shouldn't be resignation, Americas citizens failed themselves sure but they aren't overwhelmingly monsters.
With the amount of fuckery in terms of media and the whole election process in the US this is a more fair assesment.
The big sides of beer cases are lightweight, easy to conceal, and perfect for this. If you have a jacket with a liner, you can cut a thin line it with a razor knife and nobody will find your stencils.
*Spray paint stencil on tesla's
You mean swasticars?
There was a photo of a Tesla in Vienna, Austria with a swastika sprayed on the hood. It's started.
You are aware that very many Tesla drivers bought their cars before Elon went full-retard.
I’m on your side, but I’m not selling my car.
I do hope you’ll notice the anti-nazi sticker on it.
They wont. Its irrational but a large group views your car as a drivable hate symbol. Irrationality is kind of how strong emotions work. (Kind of like how truck bois would coal roll and slash the tires of prius owners)
Yeah but in total war, you take the fight to the enemy anywhere you find them.
I’m not your enemy. Tesla drivers are not your enemy. Look for actual signals, not false signals.
By the logic you’re stating, all Ford drivers should be harassed too, because Henry Ford did business with Nazi Germany. Toyota drivers should be harassed because Toyota got their start with military trucks for the Japanese Imperial Army during World War II. By that reasoning, we’d have to scrutinize nearly every major corporation for their historical ties.
If we’re going to address systemic issues, let’s focus on meaningful actions and accountability rather than blanket blame or misdirected hostility.
Just don't forget the cameras :)
Excellent plan!
That’s some cool graphic design there.
aren't they just symptoms of a manipulated electorate done by financial and political elites aligned with specifically right leanings (Rupert murdoch et al)?
the people that rise to the top of a shit system are indeed pieces of shit but we neglect the 70million idiots that will defend them because fucking Jesus and guns.
No one voted for him. Why defend him?
Once Trump dies in his sleep from medical, where’s this guy going to be? Vance is Theil owned. Theil and musk do not get along, going way back.
I have a feeling they all mostly put up with each other but can't stand the other one bit. I can't remember how many times some petty news broke about their squabbles only for them to call each other the greatest of friends when it's convenient. Like Ramaswampy saying all this shit behind Trump's back, getting on his good side only to get his face eaten later. And Greene accusing Boebert of stealing her thunder. Good god, they all sound like toddlers.
There’s this idea of developmental arrest. Zuckerberg is cited as such. Instead of growing up and developing normally, as a human, past the age of 25, a landfall hit, sure, from his own machinations, but as such his further brain development outside the focus of his business was halted. And this is how you get a mall ninja entrepreneur who carries a samurai sword around the office threatening to chop everyone for not doing a good job. In his 20s. I can’t imagine the lack of effort involved in growing up incredibly privileged isnt a factor, depending. I say that not as a guaranteed happening but as the easy path without checking yourself, like water naturally running downhill.
Same with Elon. The obsession with X as a name seems like an exemplar item on that. It’s like the name you use for something when 420-69 is already taken. He tried it with PayPal. He tried it with Tesla. He finally gets to use it on Twitter as a grown ass man decades later. I liked stickers as a kid, but I’m not slapping them on all my belongings at 40+.
Developmental delay doesn’t necessarily mean you can’t be smart, capable, or even genius. Broaden the parameters. It can mean you are a genius coder but have the emotional intelligence of a cucumber.
