It’s really amazing to watch. The DOGE crew trying to convince MAGA that “acshually , the immigrants I want are gOoD!1!1!”
^that tweet makes it seem like it’s just a matter of time before the rank and file twitter influencers will rationalize it away and feed the appropriate DOGE talking points to the masses, who always eventually swallow their medicine.
It’s like Inception, but instead of highly trained operatives taking experimental drugs and playing in people’s dreams it’s just Elon, high on Ketamine and tweeting 40+ times a day. 12/26/2024 8:39:02 PM |

Quote : | " Elon agreed to, "Jewish communities now complaining immigrants who hate them are flooding their communities". While you can debate the veracity of the statement and it's racism, it is not "Hitler was right". " |
The tweet is referencing the long-standing neo nazi idea that Jews use their power in media and finance to push Dei and crt and affirmative action to displace “white” people12/27/2024 2:20:33 AM |

DEI expands the hiring pool, not shrinks it. 1/9/2025 7:56:58 PM |
StTexan THINK POSITIVE! 7697 Posts user info edit post |
Expands hiring pool but potentially puts less qualified people in positions? Is that what the other side would say? 1/9/2025 8:31:23 PM |
moron All American 34335 Posts user info edit post |
They can say that but it can be dismissed out of hand
Trump and most of his nominees aren’t qualified
If you want me to distill it down to a principle though, best we can do is look at the pool of people entering the education/training pipeline and look at who’s hired and where, and if there’s a big difference then there’s a problem with the hiring filter or somewhere else in the pipeline. DEI is merely the process of figuring this out to making this fair for everyone.
But most white people feel racism against white people is the most prevalent type of racism, despite all evidence, so they hear dei and feel theyre being treated wrongly. As Jon Stewart once said, loss of privilege feels like discrimination 1/9/2025 9:29:36 PM |

^^ You guys are alright probably just responding how any group would have after your ancestors committed atrocities, built an apartheid government to keep wealth and power in their hands, then had to try to unwind this without giving up that wealth but then things slowly started getting better 1/16/2025 8:26:21 AM |
moron All American 34335 Posts user info edit post |
^^ Thats really interesting
I have 3 friends where lsd caused permanent changes in their personality similar to what Sam describes about Elon. They would speak in egalitarian terms, but they would act just like Elon where their own thoughts or musings supersede what’s scientifically observable.
Between drug use and aging I wonder if that’s what caused the changes

there's plenty of legitimate things to criticize elon for. and I have, on many occasions. but hallucinating nonsense to try to smear him about is stupid on your part, and also makes it harder to shine a light on the legitimate stuff. have we not learned that from the last decade of trump yet??

Elon Musk appears to make back-to-back fascist salutes at inauguration rally
https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2025/jan/20/trump-elon-musk-salute
I feel like the first salute was intentional and that the second salute was cover so that this (^,^^) argument could occur. 1/20/2025 4:47:49 PM |
moron All American 34335 Posts user info edit post |
Elon is obviously not a Nazi, he’s a white supremacist, the American flavor of Nazi
Why he chose this salute… the most charitable explanation is he’s been watching a lot of wwii documentaries recently and his brain got crossed up? He was trying to dab but forgot how? He meant to do a chest pound and peace sign?
I think it’s most likely he’s emulating trumps strategy of creating a media firestorm as cover for more heinous activity.
Looks like the Nazis are happy. No matter what musk meant they got the message that it’s their time to rise https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/elon-musk-salute-reaction-right-wing-extremists-1235241866/
Whatever you thought you’d be doing if you lived during the rise of Hitler in Germany is whatever Youre doing now. I know things are different than in 2016 because I’m actually concerned with posting this sentiment publicly attached to my name now

^^ I only saw it on AP news recently. And even they called it a "straight arm gesture"
https://apnews.com/article/musk-gesture-salute-antisemitism-0070dae53c7a73397b104ae645877535
I've honestly been patiently waiting (for almost 24 hours now) for mainstream media sites to pick up this story, which we all saw with our eyes, and call it what it was....a Nazi salute. I'm taking this to mean most of American media is too scared to cover this. The Guardian has been covering this for what it is since the beginning. 1/21/2025 4:37:31 PM |
