When will the time come where it’s natural to just call them Nazis?

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.

Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!"

Here's a question.
There are thousands, if not tens of thousands, of federal employees who apparently have received this email.
Who the fuck is supposedly going over all the responses?
These days, it's pretty easy to automate the process of sending out those emails and checking out who did and didn't reply. But who's to say if those responses are even valid? Would Elon even be able to know if some of them just responded with a copy of their shopping list from last week? Or an AI-generated random word salad? Or one of those Nigerian Prince emails? If it were me, I'd make it fun -- I'd just respond with what appears to be gibberish until you realize that the first letter of each word spells out "FUCK YOU ELON" over and over and over. If I'm gonna get fired anyway, might as well enjoy it on the way out the door.
There's zero chance that these emails are being reviewed and used to making hiring and firing decisions. None. At all. They're probably not even being read. If they're planning on firing you, that decision has already been made. All this is doing is giving Musk a way to justify his own job by saying he's doing 'something', and using the responses as justification for doing what he was going to do anyway, regardless of the content.

Federal employees number in the millions
It's also just a way to humiliate government workers - a group that the right wing has been spreading hate and nonsense about for decades. People like dumbass Stephen Miller think they are overwhelmingly leftists, so it's just a way to "own the libs" in the process of creating lots of misery and enriching the broligarchs.
Also it's a way to show how the employees are not listening. It will be be easy to say 'they' are not listening and have 'gone rogue'
Trumps appointees want a kingdom to shape for themselves. It would be fun to watch if the country wasn't slowly imploding.
If America is a car, MAGA is refusing to do routine maintenance and using that money instead to buy tacky plastic hubcaps, weather stripping, air fresheners, steering wheel covers, and stickers. By the time they're done we're going to be a half painted car with a seized engine and negative equity, with a bunch of metalized plastic crap attached to it and mismatched tires.
Not only are they form over function, but they have terrible taste.
They're selling the car for parts.
More to the point, they're high as balls on meth and deliberately steering towards a 1000-foot cliff because they think they're the Duke brothers and can totally make the jump.
America is an RV. It has wear, and items have needed maintenance or fixing. It’s a newer model than a lot of the other RVs on the road.
The rv has two families living in it. Every few hundred miles they decide who will be driving the next leg. Whoever is driving is responsible for all of the maintenance, repair, etc
The current driver is removing everything and leaving it in the side of the road. The bathroom, the sink, the pipes that keep the clean water separate from the sewage. They’re removing the dual tires and replacing it with a single spare tire. Over the years a lot of fixes have been put in place. Straps holding up different parts that were sagging. Pipes with flex tape wrapped around them. The driver is removing all of these fixes because he thinks they aren’t needed.
They’re removing have disassembled the engine and thrown out the hvac, cooling, and even the alternator.
They installed a nitrous kit to boost the engine’s power output.
There’s a few of their friends on the side of the road point at the items they think can be taken off. They’re selling those parts and keeping the money for themselves.
Sadly the drivers only experience with maintaining an rv is when he pretended to be one on a reality tv show. Before then he tried selling cars for a dealership his dad gave him but he wasn’t good at it and the dealership went out of business.
Get fucked, Muskrat!
Eat shit musk.
According to Trump's court arguments Musk isn't actually in charge of DOGE so why should they?
This should be the answer for anything fElon "demands" of our government. Every single person should point out that he doesn't run anything, so....fuck off?
I don’t know how they expected intelligence agency employees to do that. Just 4 bullet points of redactions and one that says “Redacted sensitive information from this email.”
fElon is one of the least qualified people to make such a demand.
Love to see it!
