Let's please stop pronouncing this piece of shit entity doge as "dozh" (doʒ), it's so ridiculous and we make fools of ourselves by parroting what we're told. We should deliberately "mispronounce" it, say something like dogie or dog-ee, I dunno--I'm sure you all can come up with something better.
Point is, I bet Musk gets a hard-on every time he hears reporters or democrats fall in line and repeat this ridiculous shit the way he likes it. "yes master dozh, dozh, tell me more about dozh master. 🤮 Disgusting. It's humiliating to cater to him like this. Fuck saying "dozh" like you're Musk's little bitch and stop running to serve to his every oligarchical whim like the lowly serfs he thinks of us as.
I refuse to pronounce it at all. Fucking cringy. I just call them Elon’s Nerdtroopers.
I've been calling them Hitler Youth
Oooh! That works too.
