Fuck these fascists. This is not just about Musk’s greed. All these sycophants around Trump obviously want so much more than money. They want unlimited unregulated power, immortality, a white patriarchal supremacist ethnostate. They’re setting up an Authoritarian Kyriarchical Totalitarian regime. An overt American Empire.

The terrifying part about all of this is that this infighting, while perhaps entertaining to witness, is ultimately a display of monarchy forming in America, a monarchy that a significant portion of Americans apparently are willing to usher in for the sake of relieving economic hardship.

In my view, this is because the power structures left in place by unfettered, unregulated capitalism have so neutered the power of the populace and stripped them of access to knowledge (and nearly everything else) that they are left with only a facade of choice every four years. They are left voting with their wallets or with their hate, because they are generally aware their vote means little more than delaying or accelerating the decline into fascism.

We all know this is only the beginning. As the pawns and knights and rooks jockey for position around Trump, eventually a concentrated mass of the most sycophantic and power hungry will be the ones left surrounding him. And Trump gives less than two shits about competency and all the shits about subservience.

After this jockeying for power has settled, it is likely the explicit and overt Empire building can begin, and the end of the world might very well transpire thereafter.
