But “business man = good at running things”…. That’s what the narrative has always been. Cracks me up. We all work for businesses and complain about how stupid our companies handle things, but still this myth is spread. Macroeconomic government administration is nothing like running a corporation.

We need new blood from the democrats. The old corporate democrat bull shit gave us Trump. They need to step aside for the progressive wing. The young people want that and a lot of the older folks feel the same if you drill past their 80s socialism propaganda programming. We want a new “New Deal,” not more corporate apologist bull shit. The billionaires and corporations have proven all they can do is abuse the public trust. We need strong protections to keep money out of politics first and foremost.

When history crushes MAGA like it did the Nazi movement, I hope all the supporters are ridiculed in society as much or more than post war Nazis.

The best poll on what people think of Elon.

They want to get rid of them then tank the economy so they can claim we can’t afford them. The rich are engineering a major crash. With this level of concentration of wealth, they can buy up a massive amount of assets on the cheap. Then their Network State plans will keep their assets fluid. Wouldn’t be surprised if Musk’s meddling was about directly stealing social security assets to boot. This is all just a big theft of the boomer generations assets. It’s going to get real ugly.

Don’t see how they could. It would be near impossible to enforce with current technology infrastructure.

Could MS suck any worse? It’s like they want people to not use their products. Capitalism is the ouroboros.

Seems like self hosting is going to be the only option the way things are going.

He’s incapable of complex thought. Tariff use is supposed to be nuanced and in line with price differences between American production costs and foreign ones. They are meant to make American products competitive but balanced to limit inflationary side effects. Not done in big dumb across the board numbers like this. He’s fucking stupid.
