"He's so stupid, hurr durr. He paid 40 billion and tanked the brand".

Yeah and he MADE 100+ billion this election by downright lying through his teeth.

Don't underestimate these people. They are intelligent (and often play a role to seem stupid, it's a deliberate tactic) and malicious to the core.

I mean, he was already the world's richest man, but evidently "the most of all" is not enough. They have 99% and we have 1%? They want to kill us for that last % because nothing will ever be enough for them.

Of course, they'll let the killing do itself - why bother with that if a few well placed lies are enough to keep the population permanently divided along the axis of race, age, gender, sexuality... you name it, as long as it isn't class.

Because this IS a class war and our side has been consistently losing for over three full decades.

Musk overpaid a ton for twitter because he made a stupid joke, tried to back out, and got forced to follow through in the courts. It is of course possible that these were Machiavellian machinations with benefits a rube like me could not possibly understand. Or, and hear me out here, he is just a buffoon who fell ass backwards into something that ended up working for him.

Either way, he is a serious danger. But the thing that makes him really dangerous is his wealth, a thing he did little to nothing to deserve.

Because this IS a class war and our side has been consistently losing for over three full decades.

100%. I'll just point out that the Democratic party leadership is very wealthy and their class interests align with someone like Musk. Maybe one reason we're losing is because the people we choose to fight don't want to win.
