The worst part
Musk is worth around $232 billion
So $250 million is about .001% of his wealth
It’s like if someone with assets of $500,000
Gave a $585 donation
So
Thanks to excessive greed and Citizens United
Not only can billionaires buy our elections
It doesn’t even cost them all that much

Actually kind of shocked that so many on the so-called "left" on here would celebrate the death of the CEO of the Shorten People's Lives Factory.

I simply love learning and knowing about all the new AI defense industry companies with Tolkien-inspired names run by Silicon Valley fash guys. I love to think about how wealthy and unworried their chief executives are as well.

This is another thing people don’t realize about staying on X. Musk purposefully destroyed networks between activists & journalists, making it harder to work together.
Social media can be an incredible tool when it’s not controlled by fascist billionaires. It once helped start the Arab Spring.

I still think it's great that bluesky has incentivized blocking and disengagement from toxic content and accounts. When a platform incentivizes hairy conversation and community instead of engagement for ad revenue, amazing things start to happen.

I strongly believe that we underestimate the power of existential despair in our current cultural and political moment.
