I’m guessing the variant of UBI he’s for is the one that essentially subsidises corporations so they don’t need to pay a living wage, while also using it as an excuse to eliminate all other benefits payments people on lower incomes are disproportionately reliant on to survive.

That makes sense.. uh, I got nothing as far as leftist positions go.

When teachers are finished teaching the next generation, they will then be asked to brandish their new school firearms as roaming mobs, shooting at any potential mass shooters. They will use a new pre-cog system that is based on skin col….errr suspiciousness!

Every day it amazes me how loving stupid Elon Musk is. Truly incredible.

Yeah he's profoundly dumb on a level where it doesn't surprise me he's gone completely down a far right rabbit hole. Easy to fool, bad public speaker, terrible understanding of basic concepts let alone politics, history/context, complex social issues etc. He's easily the loving dumbest and pettiest of the major tech bro figures at this point I would say.

The ultra heavy leaning into race baiting stuff seems like a relatively new venture and self-own though. It started off as more leaning into the American rights weird all encompassing obsession with Trans people as it's apparent number 1 issue atm.

To be fair, anyone perpetrating a mass shooting has probably had a pretty rough day, right? Cops are so empathic and understanding. Especially towards people who feel the need to blow other people away when they're stressed out.

It's crazy how much that one right wing guy in my building just loving looooooooooooooves twitter now and is constantly telling me about how he loves the poo poo out of it for the last few weeks even though he's failed every single time to put into coherent words what it is about it that's so great now regardless of whether he's drunk or not when he's going on about it. It varies.

Like never been on social media before now cause it was stupid when he first moved in (right take IMO), but it's apparently Twitter and twitter alone is just a-okay now and the place to be. Can't trust the regular media guys, gotta apparently go on twitter to find the "real" unbiased news and nuanced "just the facts" takes. Like it's just a bunch of poo poo memes, extremist absolute content, and stupid people stupid arguing there bro. Not sure what site you're actually on there bro or if you just like the idea of what right wing people are saying twitter is when it clearly loving isn't. :lol:

And now we wait, eagerly anticipating which avenue of insane loving horseshit 'centrist' Elon Musk will comment on defending our dim-witted, rapist ex-president. Will he claim defamation is really free speech? Try to diminish sexual assault? Claim the jury is a woke ai infected with a mind virus? Place your bets now.

I love how the only real avenue for Twitter to be profitable is advertising contracts, and Elon is continuing to scare them off harder and harder.

Elon really doesn't know how to run a company without someone competent to actually make the decisions and massive amounts of government subsidies.

Now, to be fair, when's the last time we can recall musk showing personal animus or bias towards a specific individual? Except for that Halli guy. And NPR. And that guy he fired because he told him he wasn't popular. And I guess his own kids.
