Actually I don't think they even want to rule, they'd be happy eating poo poo as long as everyone else was eating it too, so long as someone they like on top.

Musk fanatics and similar just want feudalism, but only if they're the rulers. That's it. They just want to be able to do whatever they want with no one saying no.

And if they just choose the right Infallible Superhuman Champion, they will be granted immortality for their loyalty and vengeance against all their posting enemies.

Actually true. A lot of people see it as noble to "know your place" but service your betters and the group as long as it's "your" group. This is why they see people who argue for things like "equity" or "maybe reform the system even like, a little" as opportunists who are trying to get somewhere they don't "belong."

Elon Musk just personally banned webcomic creator Jeph Jacques from Twitter and made a post warning others to not gently caress with him. Feels like twitter is becoming an old school internet forum with a power tripping admin. Feels very familiar. Can't put my finger on it.

This is what I thought when thinking about trolling him, I didn’t have any DMs on there but my phone number was linked and in the million to one chance he decides to make my life hell, ugh no thanks.

I doubt I would hit on the perfect troll post to cause it but it could potentially happen where a billionaire doxxes me and sends his legion of brain damaged fans after me

Hardcastlemccormik posted:

From the point of view of someone who isn’t in the technology world, all they’ve seen of Musk is the equivalent of those magazine covers from Iron Man where Tony Stark looks cool as gently caress. That was all intentional.

They didn’t hear about the constant gently caress ups of the company (often without Musk’s name attached) since and many don’t care. It’s a lot easier to mock zuckerberg’s sunscreen covered face and weird video about BBQ sauce than it is to explain why anyone should care about widespread sexual harassment and the X% chance a Tesla might explode as it smashes into a small child of color.

This Twitter story is Elmo’s first major public gently caress up in a way normies might see it in a loud way, if they don’t subscribe too hard to the GOP’s latest culture war.

If you're ever ending a sentence like this, just delete the entire sentence.
