The common folk are simple billionaires. The elites are baristas with blue hair and gender.
You have been appointed chairwoman of the American Communist Party
(I'm non-binary and agender but I still accept this title)
No Joke, I thought V for Vendetta took place in just slightly exaggerated UK.
It did!
Alan Moore wrote it as a rather pointed excoriation of Thatcher's Britain
It's one of the reasons that Moore distanced himself from the film, because he believed that it made the story too broad to actually have a point
I don't disagree with him on that
Surprised Tobias still has a twitter account after that one, usually Musk's MO is to ban folks who dare question is gigabrain intellect
He's paying for the blue check and Musk is desperately trying to keep Twitter afloat
Can we not post him ? Like at all ? If u want part of that soap opera - go to twitter
thesis: post it
antithesis: don't post it
synthesis: post it in c/the_dunk_tank
Of bad people, containment is better than expansion.
And of course, X is not a revenue source, it famously loss making.
what does the picture mean ?
Fascists have Zenkai boosts so if you deplatform them they come back 10 times stronger,Please ignore they fact no one talks about Milo Yiannopoulos anymore
The post should probably be in the dunk_tank where people who don't want to see this kind of thing can just unsubscribe from that comm. But it would be silly and counterproductive to deny people here catharsis and the ability to shit on elon's delusional fascism (or other any strain of fascism for that matter, regardless of how rich and famous the person expressing that fascism is. ahem.)
I understand we are a somewhat enlightened audience, but attention is what created him, and is what sustains him.
And it trivialises his malevolence, focus on his trolling the gullible.
but attention is what created him, and is what sustains him.
Then why recommend people go talk about him on twitter, where it might actually feed and sustain him in a tiny way, as opposed to here, where he will never know of it? Also, while I do think there are the type of people who thrive on any kind of attention be it positive or negative, it seems clear that elon actually cries, whimpers, and rages inside at being thought of as the pathetic dumbass that he is, and requires the fawning and worship of his sycophants as positive affirmation to maintain his ego against reality, against those who say of him what is true. Talking of his malevolence doesn't trivialize his malevolence.
The man’s face literally looks like a giant fucking tit and I love giant titties and yet I hate even glancing at him
This is just a shitty version of my meme.
ShowMr. Musk I will be seeing you in court for theft of intellectual property.
btw this motherfucker is the richest man on earth and thinks he's the scrappy underdog
I read it when it came out
Even then I was like "yeah that kinda sucked" and moved on lmao, and i was in middle school
i did a middle school presentation on the first book but couldn't get past the first chapter so i used sparknotes
I have grown to hate this trope with a passion. Like okay I get it, True Blood came out when gay marriage wasn't legal in the US. So something something allegory. If you actually had vampire/werewolf/farie powers, you wouldn't be a persecuted minority. We wish we could turn people gay by biting them, but that's not how it works. If gay people could fly and lift trucks, they would have never been in the closet in the first place.
My point is True Blood was at least tolerable for a few seasons. And my tolerance for this shit has worn out. Being non-white isn't like being in X-Men. The trope is always about white characters feeling persecuted for having super powers. In reality, if white people had special abilities, they'd immediately use it to justify white supremacy and go around killing people without powers. Like they do now with their non-super power.
"Wow I'm so different I can turn people into frogs and shoot fucking lightning from my eyes and the world just can't handle someone like me who exists outside the non-ability paradigm an---" no shut the fuck up. Fucking worthless writers and their chosen one bullshit sysysyaidisiebajaassaasdbabvxuwisondnkd
Then you get to the isekai harem slop that infests anime and manga. It's what sells (merchandise especially), so for every decent show there's like a dozen "chosen one gets sent to a magic world where he's overpowered and big tiddy waifus fight over his affection."
Musk's rebel fetishization is disgusting and pitiful. He genuinely seems to believe himself to be oppressed by society, despite wielding immense power over it.
He's a Nazi, through and through.
