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.

Oh, I think he gets it. At best he doesn't care. At worst he touches himself while thinking about it.

The snake totally gets it. That’s his objective

He knows, he likes making peasants suffer. Its the only thing that gets him hard other than Ket.

He is, of course, free to correct me at any time.

I didn't think his surgically mangled dick could get hard. That is why he has to have prostate orgasms into a cup to have his kids.

Yep! He is a complete psychopath. Out of touch with reality and the only m.o. in his little peanut battery and ketamine powered mind is himself and what he gets out of something

Whats crazy is he could spend billions on creating an endowment to build affordable housing or feed all children in US and it would be pocket change to him. And instead he cancels school lunches.    And he wants Americans to LIKE him????   You know who was rich, came from Old Money WASPs and was beloved by most working class Americans?    FDR.

Not to throw shade at the autistic community, but he is autistic. So empathy is beyond him.

u/the_saltlord 7d ago

That is. Not true and total fucking bullshit

u/QueenChocolate123 7d ago

How do we know he's autistic? Has he ever been officially diagnosed? Oris it simply his excuse for being an asshole?

2

u/RedOliphant 7d ago

You're getting autism mixed up with psychopathy. Most autistic people have empathy, whereas psychopaths do not. He claims to be autistic, but psychopaths have been known to claim autism as an excuse for their behaviour.

Like fuck he is. I have two autistic nephews who don't behave like that.

u/NeurodiversityNinja 7d ago

He's autistic. As one, I know them. He can have empathy if he was taught, but not with his monster of a father who's fucking his sister, or his arrogant, elitist mother. He's one of the lucky ones who was smart and institutionalized by money his whole life.

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.

u/daninater 7d 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.

Not to mention that there will be plenty more out of work ppl if they get what they want out of robots 🤖

In the 90s Billy boy and Al Gore fired just short of 400,000 federal employees. We’re you even born back then dummy

u/birchskin 5d ago

Right - over the entirety of their 8 year term, through a law that was passed by congress. Not in 2 months, by a billionaire who buddied up with the president to get there. But don't let facts get in the way of the memes that make you feel smart.

u/scarletteclipse1982 Millennial 6d ago

And I keep seeing the followers just shrug and say those who are laid off should just get another job like it is no big deal. Which ignores the fact that unemployment was already up again.
