Let's be clear.

All these tech billionaires like Bezos and Musk and Zuckerberg didn't become right wingers because of some ideological awakening -- or because of "wokeness."

It's because they're BILLIONAIRES and they want to avoid taxes.

That's it. It's the MONEY.

We're where we are today bc people's hate for others was stronger than their desire to look out for their own self interest. No, not just MAGA, low information voters, too. We will only make it out of this dystopia if we stop judging and start listening. Empathy & compassion are the only ways back.

Just look at these paragraphs from the AP story.

Hegseth called Brown unqualified solely because he's Black. Then they fired him... and replaced him with a white guy so indisputably unqualified that he requires a Presidential waiver.

This is what "merit" means to them.
