Just had a company event and out of nowhere they all started talking about ma freeze peach and how China is “literally 1984” and how we can see that our main conflicts nowadays are between “evil autocracy” and “democracy with western values where it could never happen that the press is lying”. I had to bite my tongue so hard the entire time, which I think they noticed. In the end I just said that I don’t want to provoke the inevitable world war 3 even more, which killed the mood hard lol.

It’s so frustrating to be alone in a group of “intellectuals”… Especially if you need to stay civil to not get fired.

      Oh God yes. The fake accounts. The trolling. The watching Musk breakdown in real time. He’s turning more and more of his lib fanbase against him by the day.
