Elon's lost the plot. It's a joy to watch.

Implying he ever had it

[–] Clent@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago (1 children)

That's part of the joy, he bought the plot and still managed to lose the plot so quickly it's easy to argue he never had it to begin with.

He paid billions to play himself.

He paid billions (largely of other people's money) to influence the US election and world politics. He succeeded. He won.

Not to mention I'm sure his tax cuts and deregulations will offset loses for buying X. Throw in gutting NASA, he opens more contracts for his companies. He will end up making money for sure.

What a dipshit

So reading all the comments here:

X is far Right, conservatives - bad.

Lemmy is far Left, liberal - good.

You both sound as bad as each other.

Already told on yourself - We all know you can't read.

You just become someone good when interacting with the good people 😉

No no you see once in Lemmy you can engage in the communist left vs liberal center-left battles. It’s turtles all the way down.

The horseshoe theory holds true in many cases. Far ends of the spectrum have more in common with eachother than they do with the people on the middle. Antisemitism is a good example of something you find in both extremes. Calls for violence is another example.

[–] Snapz@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

False premise... not wanting Palestinian babies to be slaughtered en masse is not anti-Semitism. Fuck that.

There isn't a far right and "far left" equivalency - one side are fascists and the other are anti fascists. Opposition of objective evil is NOT an extreme, it's a baseline position.

Quiet propaganda, like this comment, did a lot to bring our broken society to this point.

Israel is doing genocide but the Jews are real victims of US political discourse
