    Dude has the tiniest white dick on the planet. He’s just doing all of this because he’s insecure about his tiny dick.

    He isn’t doing shit to the government. He’s doing everything for the government, which is a republican administration. Everyone in that administration is accountable, including Musk. Everyone backing the administration is backing Trump and doge and Musk and their policies. These people will not change because they don’t see anything wrong in their doing. Force the hand of those who disagree silently to become loud to force changes, by making them accountable.

    There’s a house near me that has recently put up a flag that has “Thank you Elon Musk” written on it. Absolute morons.

      It would be illegal to set that house on fire and shoot them when they run outside. I’m sure some people would mourn the death of some flag waving nazi sympathizers. (I think this is one of those instances that only allows you to be pro state violence, anything else is gauche.)

      A Washington Post-ABC News-Ipsos poll found that 39% of U.S. adults approve of Trump’s handling of the presidency; a CNN/SSRS poll found that 41% of Americans approve; and a NBC News Stay Tuned Poll found that 45% of U.S. adults approve.

      Source

      Turns out, Trump is more popular than Musk, but all of these numbers are still amazingly high.

          I haven’t been able to come up with a good explanation yet. Previously, I thought it was just plain stupidity and ignorance. Now, I think it might have something to do with the way media manipulates the masses. Still not satisfied with my own explanation though. Is it the culture? Modern tribalism? Cognitive biases? Who knows.

      I wonder if there are any studies done on how “they” got Americans in a state where they can be mislead to these unbelievable levels despite having access to open internet and everything.

    It’s one thing if we were gonna slash government jobs and outsource to private entities for pennies on the dollar. We’re not doing that though. We’re snatching the government-issued parachutes off people’s backs and shouting, “The Free Market will save you!” just before we kick them out of the plane.

      Private entities is the goal. They just need to get rid of everyone first to do it.
