Damn, they're not even waiting for their guy to be sworn in again before they start the infighting. This truly is a speed run to social cannibalism.

    Our best hope for the next four years is that they spend so much time fighting amongst themselves, they'll be too busy to completely fuck everything else up. I'm sure they'll try, but god, I hope there's still a Department of Education in 2029. Lack of critical thinking skills is what got us these morons in the first place, we have enough stupid people in this country already.

    I share your sentiment but I think they will attempt to out cunt each other on being vile, petty children. The will try to be as punitive as possible with policy and neglectful in their duties to facilitate the mechanisms of functional government. And, yes maybe not completely because they are probably not even competent enough to do that.

    I'm sorry my American friends but you're in for some catastrophic shitfuckery.

    This is what happens when your ideology depends on attacking others but all the leftists leave the spaces you use to bully others.

    They only have themselves to scream at now on Twitter

    If only they learned from every other abuse of power Elon has made on his platform...

    It's freedom of speech for Elon - everyone else has to tow the line, or hope to god he never notices them.

    It's "toe the line". This difference is pretty important. I thought it was "tow the line" more than half my life because it sounds like pulling on a rope to go in the right direction.

    It's actually more sinister. Get your toes on the line we drew. Perfect conformity of thought or action.

    That's the thing about autocratic rule.

    Once enacted, your say is forfeit and you survive only by mercy of the state.

    Musk and Trump are neck and neck for the "Littlest Bitch To Ever Exist" title.

    Isn't it awesome living in the timeline where the wealthiest person on the face of the Earth and the most influential person on the face of the Earth are both little bitch man-children?

    You f-ing morons, you served the only purpose you were supposed to serve, you voted the coming autocratic reforms of the USA into power. Enjoy becoming as persecuted as the "left" was as only the most ignorant or most pandering voices of the coming dictatorship are left.

    The free speech Musk believes in is his ironclad right to speak. To him, contradiction is not speech, and he seems baffled whenever it happens, like he's just been slapped with a fish.

    Musk isn’t confused at all. He’s been lying about believing in free speech this whole time. He’s an oligarch—literally the richest person in the world—who bought 𝕏itter in order to control speech.

    Just to be clear, I'm not trying to say that Musk is confused about what free speech is -- I'm saying he's confused when he hears ideas that conflict with his worldview. He cannot process the idea that contradiction of his beliefs should even be possible and that drives him wild with rage.

    I think it's important to understand that Musk doesn't think of most other human beings as "people" and he does not consider what they say as "speech". His worldview is entirely solipsistic and the only speech that exists is the speech he produces and the reflections of it that come back to him. To Musk, everything else is the braying of animals with diseased minds.

    I’m not that old (I’m not that young either) but I can’t remember a time when a party controlled both the executive and legislative branches and didn’t descend into incompetent infighting.

    I thought this time would be different but this gives me hope.

    Yeah, the way they kept this coalition together was by telling the business community that their more extreme stuff on abortion and immigration was just stuff they told the rubes to get their votes. Now they're in a position that both constituents expect them to deliver, and there's a lot of conflict there. Draining the swamp is the opposite of creating an entirely new agency that's all swamp, and while the business community pretends they want more border enforcement, a lot of immigration policies are explicitly designed to create an entire class of workers that's perpetually in a precarious position so they can undermine unionisation efforts (H1B1 visas being a perfect example of that).

    I think the lefts strategy should be to let the right eat itself and just stay out of their attention. Let them get all fucked up on infighting and forget about us entirely.

    I suppose, in a way, it's kind of refreshing to see conservatives have to face the kind of hypocrisy that we leftists see every day out of the supposed liberals in this country, but objectively, did they really think putting billionaires in charge of their party would mean less exploitation of the immigration and visa process? It's easier to rob people of their labor when they live in uncertainty after all.

    Musk wasn't giving out millions of dollars out of the goodness of his heart. It was an investment, just like people who pay the "speaking fees" of prominent Democrats. They're all grifters.
