Started interacting on the other site in 2016 to try to understand why Americans voted Trump in. Left the other place and still hanging around for the same reason.The impact of American elections is far reaching

The White House trying to persuade women to have more kids while denying us reproductive rights, healthcare, childcare, paid leave, affordable housing and equal pay, and destroying education is truly dystopian.

Trump: 5 kids from 3 women -- cheated on them all
Hegseth: 7 kids from 3 women -- cheated on them all
Musk: 11 kids from 3 women -- cheated on them all
And all three men—credibly accused of rape & sexual abuse—are lecturing us about conservative & strong family values?
The hypocrisy is the point.

Trump is seizing control of the investigative and prosecutorial powers of the state by staffing them with the most conspiratorial and blindly loyal nominees : Gaetz/Bondi, Patel, Gabbard.
Political retribution is his priority. The rest of governing he doesn’t care about.

This is the co-President of the United States threatening to kill him.

I already know in advance that a handful of people will complain about me posting a screenshot from The Emperor, but that is outweighed by the fact that I think people need to know about authoritarian threats. Sorry in advance to those who don’t want to know what’s happening.

Standard predatory American Businessman
Serial CEOs swoop in, eliminate a bunch of divisions, layoff a couple thousand workers, pump the stock prices, and cash out with a huge bonus. Then they do it again somewhere else. And again. And Again. It's not about the company, it's about that bonus.

So if Musk owns all the accounts on X, then he owns all the content on those accounts and can be held responsible for everything that appears on X, right? Defamation attorneys, start your engines.
Musk's complaint is that the sale includes Infowars' accounts on X, and Musk's legal team wants it to be clear they actually own those accounts, not The Onion or Infowars, and all people and organizations on the platform have a "license" to use it, not ownership.
