"Bill Gates wants to put a chip in my brain!" [Riots.]
"Musk is eliminating any oversight so he can put a chip in my brain!" [Thunderous applause.]
Judging from Tesla quality, you would have to be pretty desperate to use neuralink
It's not like you're going to have a choice. And if some of you die, that is a sacrifice Musk is willing to make.
Me: “This Neuralink sucks! It’s nothing like you said it was going to be!”
Tesla: “Yeah…why don’t we go ahead and activate Helly R. instead, mmmkay?”
Hey by the way, Canada's Christia Freeland, ex minister of finance, and candidate for the open position of prime minister, proposed a 100% tariff on all Tesla vehicles in Canada.
They keep reaching out to me, thinking that I want to help them do this shit. Maybe I should get inside and start sabotaging.
Simple sabotage is in these days!
If these people volunteer and we end up having elections again it could solve the problem...
Can’t have people in the way of testing on humans.
Just full speed ahead to Nazitown on self drive.
How long until they use their concentration camps for subjects? Promise the detainees freedom after "a few mild experiments" and you'd have plenty to test on.
If it came out he was forcibly experimenting on trans people, would you even be surprised?
That's just legit reason for Luigi at that point. Like that's so horrifying I think most of the population in the US would murmur quiet approval, even if they'd voted for dump.
"immigration incentives"
A potentially positive influence on receiving review on your concentration camp status
Sounds a little bit like how Nazi scientists did all kinds of weird shit to people.
nothing is coincidence
This is what Musk came to America for, the land of the free, free of laws, free of oversight, free to do terrible things without reprecutions.
I was gonna say "lol dude was in South Africa do you realize how corrupt and incompetent it is there with situations like Eskom routinely shutting off power to paid customers?"
But then I realized in South Africa the "evil black man" stood up to the Afrikaans to take back their country so they won't bend over backwards for him.
America on the other hand.... They're a bastion of recessive policies and racist undertones.
What you have to understand. South Africa took back democratic control. As a country we have been forced to process institutional racism. We have been confronted by it and have to work to over come it. It was done in a remarkably smooth way as well (but let’s not forget all those who died to achieve it)
The USA and many other countries never had this flash point realisation/reckoning - it’s just in the back ground with people who deny racism exists - or don’t understand privilege. It’s all just hidden under the surface.
South Africa has its issues and a hangover from this past but it also has people who work very hard to try get us back to functioning well. We are stronger as a nation because we have confronted these racial ideologies and it’s out in the open - there are words for it - it can be identified- and so now it can be processed and healing can happen.
It’s been a generation since and it’s going to take another two or three to get there but we doing it.
Counties with this sub surface crap will never confront their issues - and they will need a reckoning.
Free to be a Nazi
Free to buy the legislative, judiciary, and executive.
I prefer the best money can buy. Best politicians, legal system, healthcare, education....all can be had for the right price.
I wonder who fElon is rooting for in that Cabaret "Tomorrow Belongs to Me" scene....
I read that initially as fee-lon and was super confused lol 😅
It is astonishing that people voted for such corruption. Fucking idiots.
Yes, but they are winning against the WOKEMINDVIRUS, which was obviously having so much impact on their personal lives....
But now they've been saved from the scourge of, umm, people who put pronouns in their email signature.
Next they'll come for Mr. Ms. and Mrs.
You know, I just noticed: there's no "r" in missus, so abbreviating it "Mrs" doesn't really make sense. Maybe it's supposed to be a possessive, like Mr's, rather than an actual gender signifier.
The abbreviations Mr. and Mrs. derive from master and mistress, respectively. Over time we've kinda lazily shortened the pronunciation from mistress to missus but kept the abbreviation.
Good on her for staying, but as I recall, formal notice would’ve only given her 30 more days.
Well, might be enough time to shine light on it and cause a public uproar since this is pretty corrupt even by January 2025 standards (can't speak for March or May...).
Ultimately shock & awe only works if there isn't enough time to process and respond, so the 30 day delay is arguably very important here.
Gee, what a weird coincidence.
How dare you accuse the prince of crimes.
