“A self-interested, erratic megalomaniac has seized control of the US government.”

Both DOGE and Project 2025 where public knowledge when people voted. So people voted for Musk and everything that’s happening even if they are too stupid to understand what they did
I don’t want to be pedantic, but okay I will. Musk wasn’t on any ballot. Not a single person voted for an individual named Elon Musk. It wasn’t an option. Enough people voted for Trump and Vance for them to win, but they were the only two on the ballot. It may seem like a distinction without a difference, because Musk functionally has an insane amount of power and influence, but that power was delegated to him by the person that people actually voted for, which is how our government works. People might have voted for Trump hoping he would use Musk in this way, but they still only voted for Trump.
I feel silly writing all that out, but these kinds of distinctions matter imo.
Nobody votes for cabinet members. Why is it useful to say so?
Love the red background with stars. It really emphasizes communist dictator vibe. And calling his crowd “fascist fanboys” is just perfect :)
I’m still not entirely convinced Musk didn’t steal the election, but the evidence I’ve seen to support it is rather thin beyond circumstantial evidence about voting patterns. We don’t have benevolent hacker groups looking out for us anymore, I don’t think.
A lot of folks don’t understand that a lot of hacks/leaks relied on people from other countries doing the hack. If you’re a citizen of the country you’re trying to hack, you’re in for a real bad time.
The rest of the world is too busy fixing their own problems to be worrying about fixing the USA when we fucked this one up all on our own.
Honestly, we’ve been fucking it up all on our own and showing the rest of the world how little we respect their opinion since at least two weeks after 9/11/2001.
