R U nuts?
Elon Musk and his ilk
Just curious, are you american or that white kind of European?
No worries either way. But yea america is in a very visible stage of capitalist controlled oligarchy. The billionaires who run said oligarchy are using propaganda to make it seem like the oligarchy will help the voters who voted for the puppets of said oligarchy.
Ummmm hope this helps or I die before i need to pay a utility bill for oxygen!
You had your test handed back face down, didn't you
I don't know what this means or why people are downvoting me. I'm genuinely asking a question
I don't really follow the news so I'm guessing it's something I missed
Sadly you've been replied to by a bunch of folks who rudely assume a very USA-centric view of the world.
This post is talking about USA politics, where the leader of the country is currently a piece of shit criminal who is allowing billionaires (eg Elon Musk) to do whatever they want and dismantle long established government institutions, under the lie that it's in the best interests of the country.
I'm honestly glad you haven't heard about it, you must have done a better job than me of filtering out US news and rhetoric!
Especially when the first things they do are start taking apart consumer and environmental protections, disband social safety nets, increase taxes (tariffs) on imported goods, attack FEMA, and stop farm subsidies, all of which hurt the working class.
Not only do people still believe the ridiculous lie, they believe it despite the mountain of evidence they don't give a fuck about you.

These guys will let you get mangled in an industrial accident if it would save them a quick buck.
Elon wanted safety colors removed from some warehouse/factory, because he didn't like how they looked. People got in accidents because of that.
So not even to save money. They'll risk your life just for aesthetics.
The Johnstown Flood
Rich people tampered with a dam so they could have a nicer ride.
Development included lowering the dam to make its top wide enough to hold a road for a carriageway and putting a fish screen in the spillway. Workers lowered the dam, which had been 72 feet (22 m) high, by 3 feet (0.91 m).[10] These alterations are thought to have increased the vulnerability of the dam. Moreover, a system of relief pipes and valves, a feature of the original dam which had previously been sold off for scrap, was not replaced. The club had no way of lowering the water level in the lake in case of an emergency.
Bro we're nowhere close to bottoming out, so I hope you're ready. You'll feel it when we pass the point of no return.
