Imagine if a woman in government brought their kid into work. I suspect the praise would quickly change to scorn

Yeah, I do. It’s great when people are understanding and don’t hold double standards, but we have a lot of “Trad family” fetishizers here in the US and they absolutely expect women to keep their motherhood and work lives siloed because their end game is getting women out of the workforce and back to being barefoot and pregnant.

People are complaining about both Elon and Jacinda. You'll always finding someone complaining, be it political or financial motivation, on other.

I don't care enough to hate him, but I dislike him because:

  1. He takes credit for the skills of others.
  2. He pretends to be an expert on topics he clearly knows little about.
  3. He's a scumbag fascist.

I love Elon Musk because he shows that an out of control addict can be rich and powerful.

Broke: Get things done.

Woke: Get shit done.

Bespoke: Make the shit done.

I "love" musk because a smarter billionaire would have kept the corrupt system running on secret. Him being so open about having bought the president and the election might help to finally get shit done about rich people with to much political power (but it might be cope)

i don't even know how he managed that, assuming the swedish flag means anything the swenglish version should be "he gets the shit made"

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

Russians posing as Ukrainians supporting musk have a poor grasp of English is my guess.

Bad faith actors exist, yes.

I do not believe that is a real account.

If someone tells you that they love leon skum, then you already know that they are clinically insane and nothing else from their mouth should surprise you.

I hate these "Helps XYZ" descriptions.

In most of these cases it's just Hot Air and Bullshit

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago

You’re allowed to support Ukraine, except a… smaller version of it.
