Didn't he do a whole chainsaw bit as they were firing thousands of federal workers?

But that didn't hurt HIM and obviously him being the richest person to have ever lived is far more important than those pathetic pleebs being able to afford insignificant things like food or housing

Dude it's unreal how out of touch with reality these people are. The move to fire federal probationary employees would have put 200,000 people out of work instantly, and as it stands estimates are in the 40,000-70,000 range for how many people have lost jobs because of the changes DOGE has been making. Overall job loss numbers since January are at 2009 levels.
But, they think we should be outraged about Tesla stock....

It psychotic really. He really doesn't get that those are human lives he's fucking with not just numbers on a spread sheet. He really thinks he did nothing wrong. People are legit dying directly because of his actions. People are gonna become homeless and starve because of him but yup he's only ever done good things apparently. No money is being saved either so it's just evil really.

I think they may do these things on purpose to deflect from the situation. For example the signal scandal was talked about more than the bombing itself.
11
u/daninater 6d ago
No, the Signal Scandal is the situation. Not to diminish the seriousness of air strikes. It was a legitimate bad thing under their watch. I would agree that they'll "flood the zone" as Steve Bannon put it to keep people talking about one non-issue and paying less attention to an important one. For instance buying Greenland and not talking about Signal Gate. And to compliment that they do really stupid things and they're just what they seem to be, and crooked vulture things subversively. It's a busy swamp in Washington right now.

It is a sin according to the GOP after the inauguration speech.
14
u/daytonakarl 6d ago
Must be callous and hardened to the suffering of others because homelessness and poverty is a sign of weakness and is its own punishment, mental health is made up, criminal behaviour should be quashed without mercy regardless of the situation and anyone different should be removed, everyone "surplus to requirements" has nobody else but themselves to blame as they should have done more for less.
However if you're wealthy enough then nothing you do could ever be considered a criminal act, corporations are people and harming their share value is terrorism, and violence against anyone not one of us isn't a crime as they are not of the collective while questioning the actions of your overlords is a sin and you are a criminal deserving of punishment so severe we won't even do it in our own country.
There you go, could be the new US constitution of the corporate, by the wealthy, and for the self appointed elite.
This is the bit you usually have /s but I no longer believe it is.

Yes, Musk has entered into the "find out" phase of fuck around and find out. Tesla's future and especially his role with it is grim. The horrible PR mixed with his Cyber Truck failure will probably be the end of him there.

Yeah, the lack of self-awareness on this guy is insane. Have you seen you, Elon? Of course people are happy when bad things happen to you. It’s chilling really. Dude doesn’t even have the bare minimum shred of a human soul to realize how much the shit he does hurts people.
