Elon now has real political power to flex and as we know he is a dumbass extraordinaire. Now he’s come out railing against a stopgap funding bill that’s chock full of pork because that’s how you grease the skids
We are in for a rough four years

I don’t think :melon-musk: will last one!
I get that I might be off base but it’s still not clear to me why people think Elon has a ton of power now that he didn’t previously. Trump’s presidency doesn’t translate into Elon’s power because Trump already got what he wanted and has no loyalty whatsoever. I thought it seemed pretty likely that this relationship was doomed because neither personality is able to restrain their own damaging bullshit and stay focused on their goals so why would they work well together?
Yeah people seem to forget that under the first Trump term, every other week there would be a new wormtongue sweet talking Trump into his or her idea of what to do, and then Trump would get bored or annoyed with them and move on to another advisor.
The short answer is the chuds love him and so he can put pressure on reps with the bully pulpit
Musk I think is happy to be a sycophant, he spends basically all his time on Twitter grovelling for attention, I don’t see him taking issue with playing second fiddle to trump. We will see
Government efficiency is when no government
That is the core of libertarian philosophy
Would be on brand for Melon to re-invent the government, but just shittier in every way possible.
Such is the techbro way
Looks like we’re in for a hell of an accelerationism folks

yeah the dems are in full “FAFO” mode. they are absolutely giddy for this. apparently every one that posts about how happy they are for the “voters to get what they deserve” is fully insulated and independently wealthy.
so yeah the party’s actual base.
We’re going to need wheelbarrows to buy bread aren’t we?
I’ve been saying it for years: warlordism is the slimmest form of government
The first I saw this news on a reddit thread they were blaming BRICS for this.
And these were bernie type “progressives”.
… How??? Because Elon is South African??
Because aparantly the American ruling class is in the pockets of Russia and China.
Damn, if the capitalist class in the US is controlled by the bad guys, perhaps we should do a proletarian revolution and establish communism.
Oligarchy and guerrilla class warfare are so back. Roaring 20s time frfr
America needs to eat shit economically before anything can get better globally
That’s just the thing, if America eats shit economically the way it really might, then I’m not sure the union remains intact by the end of the decade. Like, suburbanite
guys who have never had to even think about having to tighten their belt will suddenly not be about to get there jalapeno poppers at Applebee’s, or afford the gas to go to an NFL game… And that’s the same type of dude who’s built themselves a small armory in their basement. Trump comes in promising the world, but plummets the country into 3rd world levels of poverty - that ain’t going to end well for them.
America’s gonna get the Milei treatment. Cool.
I mean, he did fix the economy. Not for the majority but the corporate class is doing great
It seems Musk started using his children as human shields because he’s afraid of getting got.
He’s got goons
The large son behind him is one of them
OK but then why did he name his latest child xM3atxShi3ldx
he needed some way to remember the strong password for his crypto wallet so he doesn’t lose it in a ketamine fugue
Implying Musk remembers the names of his kids
Elon Musk to become American Rasputin.
In the sense that he’ll be poisoned and shot?
does this mean we get to put his wiener in a jar
But does he like cake
🤣🤣The cake is a lie 🤣🤣
He is a billionaire he always had political power in USA lol
So is Bill Ackman
So is Howard Schultz
What happens when they tweet?
At least we can go back to genocidal ethnic cleansing being a bad thing… right?
[accelerationism intensifies]
