They have your social security numbers as well as other personal legal information. Time to rig some polls or manufacture reasons for you to get arrested and be out of the regime's hair.
I mean, aren't all our SS numbers readily available? Don't you remember when our creditor institutions got hacked?
Doesn't make what Elon is doing OK in the slightest.
True
I'm still fucking bitter that the meme Elon latched onto was Doge. I fucking loved that meme and hate that it now has ties to fucking fascism.
Par for the course. Nazis have done the same thing to everything from Pepe the frog to the swastika itself.
Yeah, the point of dog whistles is to fly under the radar. Which means they steal popular symbols to use, so they can have the plausible deniability of “lol we were just posting memes about a comic frog” if anyone confronts them for their nazi shit.
Do I remember correctly that Pepe dies in the comic because the author didn't want to keep producing material for them to hijack?
To me, it's ok, because the people behind it pronounce it dōj and I always pronounced it doggy. So now we know the evil pronunciation is dōj.
The swastika was a sign of positivity until the 1920s
Kabosu does not deserve to have her legacy tainted by Elon Musk. She was a good girl.
Don't get me wrong, it's terrible that they were granted access to very sensitive information (government contracts, employee data, probably tax returns last I heard) with no oversight. That's gone, no way back.
But make no mistake, this is not a heist. It's a coup. They are seizing control of meta-infrastructures of the government: payroll, contracts, payments, communications, software. This is how you hold a country hostage.
No doubt, what, are we going to elect a Democrat and elon will just willingly answer to that guy? Yeah fucking right.
The only way we're going to get our country back is if we get a sane Democrat in office that rules the same way Trump does.
So it's never happening.
You can't play by the rules while your opponent cheats and expect anything but to lose.
Man I bet George Washington is stoked that we’ve skipped hereditary monarchies and went straight to emperors
Blackmail.
They can match employee lists against public donor lists and start targeting people.
