^^^^
The white supremacy comes from how trump and musk are operating. I guess it’s true I’ve never read anything from Yarvin that suggests this is his motivation.

For page 17:

Fucker now giving away million dollar checks to Wisconsinites in support of conservative judges.

Is this really what we want in this country. Billionaires just doing whatever they want and daring anyone to stop them? The judicial system, even when it works, is much too slow to actually stop such brazen behavior.

Something is wrong with this guy, and clearly getting worse.

Burning Tesla is bad. If anyone that burns a Tesla runs for office I prob won't vote for them!

It's also completely irrelevant to Musk's credibility.

Maybe we need a Vandalism Credibility Watch thread

And this is why I can’t take anything TGL says seriously.

Advocating any kind of vandalism is wrong. I think it’s ridiculous to call it domestic terrorism, but it still isn’t the right thing to do. Protest by not buying them. Destroying them just hurts everybody in the long run. Oh and I’m sure a burning lithium battery is great for the environment.

I’m sure this isn’t happening as much as the media is making out.

Hate the man, not his companies. If you feel like EV’s are one way to protect the environment, why turn on the largest US manufacturer of them based on the owner’s politics? I still don’t like Tesla’s.

The flipside is also funny to me - Sean Hannity, who has railed against EV’s and Teslas for years, is holding a contest to give one away. It’s funny and sickening to see how the right is now giving Musk a reach around, whereas years before, he was the big liberal boogeyman.

to get back on topic, absolutely hate his companies. they’re the reason he’s in the position he is currently in. he deserves every bad thing that happens to him.

there are plenty of electric car manufacturers to choose from

Their target audience is not only people with low IQs, but people with no values. There has always been a segment of people like this, in every society, but they're not American
and they're the prime converts for maga

the other is people who think they are a lot smarter than they actually are

Quote :
"During the Wednesday episode of “The Megyn Kelly Show,” the host called the reports out of Politico and ABC that Musk – and his work with DOGE – might not be around much longer “sad.” She also found it shocking that Democrats would be celebrating the news.

“I think it’s sad,” Kelly said. “It’s like, imagine living in the time of Albert Einstein or Thomas Edison, and having them say, ‘I will help solve the nation’s problems. I’m happy to pitch in,’ and saying, ‘No, we hate you.’ That’s what the left is saying. ‘We know we hate you. We don’t need your brain to help us solve problems.'"

Is that before or after he went completely off the rails?

Because a close relative used to hate him (because she hates EV cars and is anti-science). But she liked Big Bang Theory. But now she really like him after he embraced Trump and DOGE.

Pretty sure I used that word years ago and had the riot act read to me by TGL. So no, it’s not.

And it’s spot on how everybody who hated Musk before cozying up with Trump now think he’s a prophet.

definitely didn’t read you the riot act over it. I just explained why I wasn’t ok with that word being used/my personal connection to why I felt that way

I’d be happy to post our PM’s

Quote :
"the reason why I felt the need to repeatedly ask you to defend your comment and eventually PM you is because of your use of the word retarded. I'm very close with a family whose daughter is developmentally challenged. it floors me to see or hear adults using that term (and describing things as "gay") without realizing how hurtful they are being to those who get called such things on a regular basis. words matter, man, and all I could think of when I saw you using that word was somebody calling my friends daughter retarded."


Quote :
"there are more than enough words in the English language to use in an attempt to disparage ones politics. using that word in relation to my (or anyone else's) politics makes about zero sense.

using a word like retarded to connote that something is wrong or bad is both intellectually lazy and offensive to those who are close with people with mental/developmental disabilities.

it's the exact reason describing something as "gay" in a pejorative sense is wrong.
"


not the riot act

He got receipts. I'm with TGL on this one, which can be relatively rare. Bonus is that it appears to have made a lasting favorable impact.

I have a few points to share on the 'retard' topic:
1. I don't think I've ever seen someone specially abled get called a retard, I feel like most kids nowadays are better than that. There definitely are some bad apples though. The same with gay, I don't think it's much of an insult for actual gays - no one uses it unironically. Of course, those who do should be checked.
2. There are a lot of people (thankfully not in-person in my experience) however, who use the word 'retard' JUST BECAUSE they want to be contrarians and say "it's not bad if you're not using it for an actual retard". Those people ARE retarded, and they deserve to get punched in the face!
