If you still have a Twitter account, you are a piece of shit. That goes for everyone of you
A bit harsh I think
Is it? I don't think anyone gets a pass on supporting a nazi.
You know very well that musk is not just "a guy", he is ultrarich and is using his money to get more money, no matter the cost to the rest of the world.
You know very well that the amount musk promises to donate monthly is more money than most people will see in their entire lifetime - including you.
You know very well that trump is not just a political candidate. He is a fascist piece of shit and has already stated that he will be a dictator.
Why do you simp for these fuckers? They wouldn't bother to piss on you if you were on fire.
None of the statements I made are wrong.
Did you not pay attention when trump said he'd be a dictator on day one? Or are you just ignoring that easily verifiable fact?
Will you be disappointed if he doesn't behave like a proper dictator on day one, considering your love for truth and consistency?
I believe that it was related to immigration and further ruination of the environment - Two hot topics among the majority of his cult; the racists and the coal rollers. Really makes no difference. His intentions are to shit on due process and law and order and do whatever he wants. Perhaps it will be for one day only, but that just doesn't seem likely considering his general approach to the law and the sycophants he got in the SCOTUS.
I guess this is down to opinion then. I think the only type of joking and humour trump is capable of is putting other people down and I think that everyone should be wary of every single word coming out of his mouth (how difficult that might be) because he speaks his mind with very little filter.
And he is both. GOP played dirty and got a yuge majority in the SCOTUS. This was under trump. Rest assured that as soon as he is declared president, any lawsuit against him will be swept away. He fullfills most Umberto Eco's 14 features of fascism.
trump's handling of classified information has already put US agents at risk and we don't even know what else he has shared. His apparent inability to tell his cult to stop forcing their way into a US government building has cost lives. The whole abortion thing is downright medieval in some states now and will only get worse if he gets 4 more years (or however long it ends up being). And his love for putin and all things russia ("We have all the funding we need out of russia" - Remember this?) is a threat to Europe.
I'm sure there's more, but I get tired.
Sure. It was a pleasure, but the thread is getting old and I'm done.
Nah it's fine
I should change my name to INHALE_BEEF
It's really not.
Damn I just got back from twitter... It really changed in the past month it's all political stuff and I never used twitter to research politics I'm not even American I'm a Canuck but maybe that is close enough.
Moral of the story: I agree with you
It really has changed. I noticed it a few months back. Subtle rightwing and like, morbid "shock" content and even some animal abuse started popping up more and more. I just gradually started using it less and less, it was pretty obvious what was going on.
