    This image was crossposted from [email protected]. The average subscriber there probably has a much different interpretation of who the image could be referring to. Conservatives are not present in reality enough to even consider that Trump and Musk are the baddies — the “corporate bobble heads” and the “rich and corrupt” as the image says.

    To my pleasant surprise, the top comments on the crosspost are sensible:

    If you are “conservative” in any manner, you’ve been voting for the destruction of both people and society in both word and deed for the past 40 years.

    Sure, you may want me to be beaten to death, but at least you admitted eggs aren’t cheap now, this makes us allies.

      Wasn’t that the community that was taken over and is now conservative satire?

        Ah, I didn’t notice. I already had it on my blocked list so I glanced at it in another browser and saw about a dozen posts by a user named Donald J Musk that seemed to be sharing articles in earnest.

          I’m pretty sure that dude is just having a good time trolling. I ain’t gonna feed it but I can see some satirical notes in the things he comments.

          Oh, that’s possible! I wasn’t 100% sure either, hence phrasing it as a question.

          On a side note - I find it hard to keep track of similar (or same) named communities…
