"Because they are inside a grift bubble, they push for authoritarianism in their own interest, without reckoning with the possibility that their actions can wreck the country. For them, America is a limitless passive resource. ...

The president and vice-president do not know the history of people like themselves, or that of other republics that were needlessly brought down by men of their particular sort."

"How does a country burst? To answer this questions, it helps to see matters as do the president and the vice-president: from inside a grift bubble. ...

This end of the United States is possible, in part, because our president and vice-president think that it is impossible."

Reminding us that money can't buy us love, Jared Yates Sexton writes,

"I doubt that I have to explain the significance here, but, out of an abundance of caution, let’s go. The world’s richest man had to instruct his in-house AI program to give him the simulation of a woman looking at him and promising that she will always love him."

”I don’t think the problem is that philosophy is not relevant. I think it’s just that there’s a lot of bad philosophy. You know—Peter Thiel, Elon Musk, Steve Bannon—these are the intellectual architects of…the current administration in many respects.”

Lol, the #TeslaTakedown crowd outside the #Tesla Diner in #LosAngeles projected a loop of #Musk sieg heiling. They figured diners should get to watch what they're supporting. Granted, some of them are openly into that shit. But that's the point! You sit down to dine with Nazis, you're a Nazi.

As I said yesterday about some other resistance hijinks, you could put a label on a projector that says "THIS MACHINE KILLS FASCISTS."

Holy hell. The Truck is such a complete fucking sales disaster that he's getting a corrupt deal with the military to buy them as targets.

THE TESLA TRUCK IS SUCH A COMPLETE FAILURE THAT THEY'RE SELLING THEM TO THE MILITARY AS TARGETS FOR TARGET PRACTICE.

No doubt at full price or some shit. Gotta claw those losses back somehow.

The #Tesla board continues to show its utter contempt for shareholders by following its illegal delay of the annual meeting with an appalling retention award of $30 billion to part-time CEO #ElonMusk. https://valueedgeadvisors.com/2025/08/04/tesla-board-gives-musk-an-outrageous-30-billion/

Et quand la justice demande des comptes à X, la levée de boucliers en France est essentiellement un retour d’ascenseur d’acteurs politiques favorisés par les infrastructures d’ #ElonMusk.
