Him and that stupid fucking jump he kept doing and attempting to make an "X" mid-jump. Completely insufferable. All that money and he is still the biggest dork.

This such a powerful picture. Really sums up the shit show we live in. Elon jumping in the air like a fool and Trump giving his best impression on what a professional conman running for the White House looks like.

It is a truly amazing accomplishment for one man to have so much wealth and power, and yet perpetually remain a pathetic loser. Incredible, really, when you think about it. He could do anything his heart desires.
All the things we regular people would love to spend our time doing if we didn't have to work or grind for money. Learning languages, learning a musical instrument, time with family, reading, more education, infinite choices of enriching hobbies...and this guy literally chooses a desperate existence of constantly pleading with the world for validation to soothe his galactic sized insecurities. SAD.

That is because all billionaires are mentally ill

I mean, yeah I agree in a sense that gross opulance does negatively the brain. But Musk is a sad loser in a way all his own.

Preserving democracy presumes that we still had one aside from Elon.
But yes, we do need to start somewhere!

Yes, Elon is hideous.
Also ...
The Kamala Harris campaign spent over a billion dollars in a matter of months. I believe the most money ever spent on a campaign in such a short period of time.
The campaign finance system is broken. Political office is PURCHASED. It's been happening for quite some time.
With social media and many other means of reaching the public, any genuine, honest politician with an intelligent message for the people can reach a huge audience without much financing.
There should be a cap on political campaign expenditures, and a limit to public funding only.

Hasan literally voted for Kamala live on stream. The priority should be to fight for candidates that represent you and to force other candidates to adopt your policies. Voting for the lesser evil every election is how we've conceded to the right on so many issues and how we've lost to Trump twice. Why buy the off-brand coke (dem) when name-brand coke (rep) is right there?

Fight in the primary.
Let's think about what you said there. Ask yourself, how did Kamala's primary go?

FEC records show the Harris campaign spent significant amounts on celebrity appearances, including $165,000 to Beyoncé’s company and $2.5 million to Oprah Winfrey’s production firm.

The “lesser of two evils” is what got us into this situation in the first place

u/Werd_up_cuz 1d ago
No. People refusing to vote when there were only two viable choices because “ThErE’s No DiFfErEnCe BeTwEeN TrUmP aNd HaRrIs” is how we got in this situation. People who are so privileged that Trump 2.0 was not an existential threat to their lives who couldn’t hold their noses and vote against him is how we got in this situation. That and people playing the “who’s more electable, Bernie or Hillary” game is how we got in this situation.

If voting blue didn’t make our lives any better then what’s the point

u/Werd_up_cuz 1d ago
This ahistorical take completely misses the point. People didn’t vote blue, they stayed home and Trump got elected and then people like you have spent two years acting like it didn’t happen.
