She’s in the elite ruling class, so she gets to do whatever the fuck she wants with impunity while projecting false accusations onto anyone who fits in the ‘other’ category while her dumbass base of uneducated gerrymandered trolls eats it up.
Peter’s puppet will do whatever Peter prescribes. Expecting corporal Bowman to ever do the right thing for the right reason would be a grave mistake.
Actually effective real modern medicine is reserved for Oligarchs. Everyone else gets RFK feverdreams.
Sounds like an excellent ROI for everyone except the voters who wanted this product in the first place and the voters who didn’t want it at all. But hey, it’s quite a sight to see corrupt capitalism working…for itself.
Meanwhile all those nascently pathological conservakids were quietly taking notes on how docile all the decent and kind kids were learning to be so they could later be confounded and exploited by fully-matured conservative assholery in adulthood.
Many service members are in the same position and depend on Uncle Sam to pay their bills (and, ya know, to stay out of jail for derelicion of duty or insubordination)…hence why it might be a tad difficult to “remember their oath” and stand up against vaguely illegalish orders, which might morally preserve their soul, but crushes their ability to live. Only bringing this up because of comments in other posts related to the NG and USMC in LA, but I see a close parallel of maliciously manufactured helplessness to self-advocate.
This sets a really dangerous precedent. I mean, what’s to stop this from happening to any other elected official? Like, if something like this could happen to a SENATOR, what’s to stop it from happening to a vice president or even president?
That’s always been the tragedy for me personally. I absolutely loved the fuck out of SpaceX and what it was doing. It was the shining ray of hope for tech nerds like me hoping to work in a cool industry reminiscent of the 60s space race. And then Musk got on Twitter and got seriously weird and just never stopped.
As a reality television show for watchers unaffected by any outcomes, it’s a masterpiece. For the psychoneurotic main actors it must be exhilarating. For all the extras it’s a special kind of hell where most of the tunnels just lead to more darkness and uncertainty.
While I admire your passion, I’d love to see you broaden your perspective and capacity for nuance. You might be surprised at the diversity of thought found among the cadet and officer corps of the US military. If a strong resistance to fascism were to materialize, some of these officers may prove to be the best associates and allies. Lumping them all into the genocidal bigot bin would probably be a misstep for the long term subversive civilian element.
Tell me more about your knowledge of service academy cadets and midshipmen and their personally-held beliefs. Do you work at or near a service academy? How many interactions with cadets have you had in your lifetime? Curious to know why you believe them to be so bigoted.
The cadets that graduated this May enrolled four years ago under a different administration, for what it’s worth.
Sorry, my intent was to apply the label of “regulator” to the publicly elected officials and ghouls controlling the course of this legislation (i.e. regulating society). I are engineer, so sometimes I mix my lingo and analogies.
The floodwaters can only be dammed so long before breaking free. Whether that happens via controlled release of pressure or a disastrous blow out is up to the people with the regulatory power. Their failure to address the tide can only end in their painful ruin. For their sake, they better have fast legs if they don’t grow some hearts.
Wasn’t that a Simpsons episode? Wait, no, that was a rocket launch. Which is really ironic now that I think about it because even if it’s something as cool as a rocket launch, if it’s SpaceX, I will instantly change the channel or avert my eyes because fuck that asshole.

Well said.
I’ve found Air Shows and AFB Open Houses to be WAY better at showcasing military assets and personnel to the public and driving recruitment. Military parades are pretty cringe.
Servicemembers must feel so proud to be serving with him as their boss…
It’ll come eventually. It has to. No one becomes this infamous without penetrating retrospectives and analyses surfacing. It is surprising there hasn’t been a movie a la Zuck in The Social Network, but I guess it took a long time for a film about Howard Hughes, who looks like milquetoast compared to Musk. I suppose the plot is still thickening and anything made now or soon would be premature.

I’m sure all that arrogance will keep him safe from the people he’s about to disenfranchise. The people who have illnesses, diseases, injuries, and chronic pain that make their lives almost not worth living, but thank goodness they have medical care to assuage the suffering just enough. I’m sure those people won’t have an axe to grind if someone decided to deride them mercilessly as unproductive societal waste as they’re just trying to get through the day without treatment or medication.
