I’m honestly surprised. We already know he’s an antisemite, a Holocaust denier, an extreme homphobe, and a misogynist who believes women are unintelligent. What could possibly be so damning that would make even Trump cringe?

I’m not. Break Twitter. Break Musk. Break all the big corporations and their ego-tripping overlords. There is no excuse for businesses of any type to not be accountable to the people they’re trying to profit off of.
You don’t want to be around to answer for it when you fuck something up, you don’t deserve to be doing business in that area. End of discussion.

But it’s also a massive hypocrasi. Since Musk did censorship on Twitter on behalf of both Turkey and Saudi-Arabia and Biden didn’t condemn that at all.
This has nothing to do with election strategy, this is just plain old corruption. If democrats wanted to win all they had to do is look at a list of what the American people want that is executable and do that and they would crush the current republicans with ease every time. But they are far too corrupt to do that.

Republicans now want to roll back Biden’s cheaper drug policy. Even though it’s already super, ultra watered down it’s still too much. They believe big pharma should reap all the rewards from taxpayer investment.

Their voting base will contort themselves in justifying it, sadly, because Biden came up with it.

@Background Pony #D717
Why would they give that money back by lowering drug prices? They can just keep the money and raise prices anyway.
Trump promises a factory in Cleveland I believe wouldn’t leave and gave them a massive subsidy for not leaving. They just took the money and left anyway and Trump didn’t say anything about it.

What job does government suck at?
I mean they suck at keeping corporations in check but that’s not solved by giving corporations more power.
But I do get what you mean. There is this tendency to view capitalism only in the ideal theoretical scenario of how it’s supposed to work. Not the complex real world of power, local markets, imperfect humans, assymerical power, propaganda, inelastic markets and many other things.
I have had it often when I criticize some aspect of capitalism people lecture me in how capitalism is supposed to work. I know how it’s supposed to work but the textbook of high school is not the real world.

They stick by Trump even though he got House Reps to halt a border security bill’s progress just to keep Biden from getting to use it as an accomplishment. What makes you think they’re not that partisan?

@BlueYoshi
Most people though do want the US to stop. Especially as Netenyahu is antagonizing Iran.
The problem is that they still have this dellusion of needing to go right when they need to go left to appeal to more people. Republicans got away with decades of unpopular policy cause they have a strong and reliable base and democrats need to have the same. They need a strong base of leftists that they can count on and who they will serve.

I’m not giving up.
I mean I don’t mind if Brazil makes Elon mad.
It’s just that Brazil’s government shouldn’t be seen as total saints here.
Lesser evil in this case? Likely so tho.
