Elon: "Oligarchy ftw"

You like that, Americans?

In political science, a reactionary or a reactionist is a person who holds political views that favor a return to the status quo ante—the previous political state of society—which the person believes possessed positive characteristics that are absent from contemporary society.

Reactionaries hate democracy because it gives power to those they seek to exploit.

Most people just conform to groupthink. But not people in my group. We all think the same way because we're right!

Well, he's not male enough to be secure in his masculinity to represent them.

He'll be bankrupt within 5 years, but honestly it's getting to the point where I see him jailed before that.

I dont understand the logic of this. Even if everything in that post was true and ignoring personal experience, how are neurodivergent people immune to propaganda? Why would people with dyslexia not be scared if they dont have the popular opinion if people without dyslexia would be scared? Do they think that "anxiety disorder" means that people with it are fearless?

Also, a large part of humans are aneurotypical so its not elon musks worst idea of how a country should be ran

Lets give it a try. Once a year, the people will vote who continues in the ruling elite and who of them goes to the guilliotine.

Ironically, the person who wrote the 4chan post didn't stop to think "is this true?".

So what he's saying is, he should have no political power?

[–] Sway_Chameleon 6 points 2 months ago

Of course he does. He'd then proceed to try to buy his way in as Supreme Leader For Life. Everyday this guy finds a way to become a shittier jackass.

Man who had his hairline surgically repaired and shows clear signs of taking human growth hormone to not look like flabby nerd he is thinks he's both high status and would be a leader in a hypothetical alpha male society.

I would imagine there are whole teams of Sociologists tracking his and JKR's tweets at the moment to plot the Brownian motion movement from rich idiot to full fascist.
