In response to @Comrade_Spood's query on pt 1 (found by complete coincidence, but had to share considering that exchange lol)
ID: "You're always writing about politics. Why don't you post cat pictures like everyone else?
Me: Okay!"
Below is a photo of a tabby cat burritoed in a bright pink blanket on a sofa, they look to be intently reading Karl Marx & Friedrich Engels The Communist Manifesto which is open in front of them.
ID: Kombucha Girl meme, at the top it says "new year's re-" then on the left, above her disgusted face, it completes to "-solutions" (resolutions), and on the right above her impressed face, with the text now glowing red, it completes to "-volutions" (revolutions)
ID: drawing of a cute rond frog wearing a pink bow tie, who has waved a sparkling magic wand to produce a small fire in front of them, text says: "I will not be having problems this year. Instead, I will be causing them"

ID: Drawing of a single flower growing in a pot, it is looking sparse and only has 3 petals left, 2 more petals have fallen off to the ground next to it. Text says: "It's okay if all you did ~~today~~ THIS YEAR was survive"
ID: white text on a black background around a faded photo of a person with a black face scarf on and a hat that says "illegal" on it:
"But it's illegal"
"Saying that something is illegal is not an argument, it is an appeal to authority. Laws are arbitrary dictates to control a population, not universal standards of morality.

It says: "Stop buying your loved ones BORING gifts like: Severed Plant Genitals" next to a crossed out graphic of flowers, "Roasted Bean Bar" next to a crossed out graphic of a bar of chocolate, and "Shiny Rocks" next to a crossed out graphic of a diamond ring. There are also a couple of sad emojis.

It says: "Instead get them something they'll REALLY appreciate: Heat Death of the Universe" next to a graphic of the universe in flames with a green tick next to it, "Rift in Spacetime" next to a graphic of that rift with a green tick next to it, and finally "Cursed Knowledge" next to a graphic of an ancient looking book with a green tick next to it. There are also a couple of starry eyed emojis.

Oh, and since the exact people your post is about simply can't help themselves and are already pouring in to mansplain and make excuses for themselves, the obligatory:
And yet, he's still one of the what, 5 richest people on the planet?
He doesn't give a shit, and neither should you (as nice as the schadenfreude might feel). He got something worth more to him than plain old money - an established propaganda platform, which he is using as he intended - to war monger and otherwise interfere in politics to ensure fascism progresses as fast as he can help it. The "dent" (more like a surface scratch) it put in his finances is completely invisible and irrelevant to him.
And it should be to you, too.
He is NEVER going to end up without means or power, not even fucking close, unless we take them from him, and abolish the system that encouraged and enabled him to amass them in the first place.
ACAB, but that headline gave me a chuckle, at just how fucking blatantly criminal, and more importantly immoral, but also so so ridiculous they are. Can't you just picture a bunch of cops in full tactical gear standing around in some room in a post office, patting each other on the back as they successfully empty a bunch of birthday cards in to a pile.. 😂
(having read the article, and knowing cops, I know there were serious amounts of money stolen, this was just the image I got from the headline)
Good friend of Kettle Hitler

E: and also
his ex-wife is in jail for objecting to court-ordered reunification therapy meant to repair his relationship with two of his sons.
Yeah, because top priority when encountering a piece of shit incestual paedophilic rapist, is to reunite him with the children he set aside while he preyed on the others. 🤯🤬
Be it a system or an individual - abusers defend abusers. It's always projection in self defence, it's why they've constructed an elaborate conspiracy theory about secret paedophile rings run by the rich and powerful, yet when someone rich and powerful (and white and straight), and those who serve them, acts in direct defence of a paedophile, they look the other way.
The judge who made this ruling, along with everyone who enabled it, need to have their hard drives searched and the children in their lives questioned and potentially removed for their safety. I don't have a single doubt in my mind that if they did this, they would find at least one more paedophile.
As for the mother and kids, I hope they sue the state or the court or whoever it is they can, and win millions to pay for the new life they're going to need to build for themselves and therapy they're going to need for the rest of their lives (never mind compensation for the obscene miscarriage of justice of locking her up).
A great example of toxic positivity, that shit sucks.
hmmm, this rings a bell.. 🤔
Oh yeah:

He has no clue how to run a business.
This isn't a business to him, it doesn't need to be, its monetary value is insignificant to him, it was always about having control of an established platform, and feeding its audience his propaganda.
Ask them if they like this one better, when they say no, act ignorant and ask them to explain why, then sit back and watch them squirm
Your brother is on a (specifically designed and heavily funded) pipeline to being a total piece of shit (not just with misogyny, but racism, and probably queerphobia and ableism too), do what you can to get him off it. A quick search brings up what looks to be some good info to start you off:
Manosphere
Misogynistic influencers are trending right now. Defusing their message is a complex task
De-radicalising incels out of the ‘manosphere’ through Reddit
Making a Radical Misogynist: How Online Social Engagement with the Manosphere Influences Traits of Radicalization
Swallowing and spitting out the red pill: young men, vulnerability, and radicalization pathways in the manosphere
Exiting the Manosphere
There are also many youtube videos on the subject, though I haven't watched any recently, so I won't link, but look up something along the lines of "manosphere right wing pipeline" and you should see some results.
