Haven't and prob won't watch, but doesn't surprise me... when you're that rich and nothing tests you anymore, you really lose the feeling of being a man or even human to a certain extent.
Then you just start poking things or become the equivalent of a bored kid burning ants with a magnifying glass just to try and feel something again.
Have only watched a little bit of this but this goes back to the comment about Mearsheimer and Realist politics. It's from a former MI6 boss on the situation with Trump, Russia, and Europe:
Funny how Trump is using Musk to do all the dirty work. Like I said before, if shit hits the fan, he's going to make Musk the fall guy. Musk is too drunk on power to realize he's getting played and is going to end up holding the bag.
Quote:
Musk’s apparent ultimatum to millions of Americans came hours after Trump expressed his desire to see the billionaire become more “aggressive” in rooting out federal waste and fraud.
In an all-caps Truth Social post, Trump wrote, “ELON IS DOING A GREAT JOB, BUT I WOULD LIKE TO SEE HIM GET MORE AGGRESSIVE. REMEMBER, WE HAVE A COUNTRY TO SAVE, BUT ULTIMATELY, TO MAKE GREATER THAN EVER BEFORE. MAGA!”
Looks like Musk, who supported the so-called Nazi party of Germany, the AfD, came in second and got only 20% of the vote. He was claiming they would hit 40% and come first. Here’s the kicker, though, the leader, whose grandfather was an actual Nazi and who opposes immigration and LGBT rights, is married to a bloody Sri Lankan. You have JD Vance who's married to Indian with half Indian kids supporting Nazis. WTF is going on in this world?
Like an educated version of all those rednecks in the USA who hate immigrants and wear pointy sheets but are all married to Mexican or Filipino or Thai women lol
Reminds me of Kid Rock who now loves bashing Black people, yet he had a kid with a Black woman and has a half Black son. He was even accepting an NAACP award a decade ago. These people are lost.
They’re the original Aryans of course. But jokes aside these minority women aren’t blameless they’re typical social climbers who’d probably fuck Rush Limbaugh if it gave them “financial security”

I'm having the hardest time wrapping my mind about the leader of AdF being gay and married to a woman. I'm not against gay marriage, it's just the juxtaposition and siding with Musk (and ult-right groups) whom we all know is super anti LBGT is so jarring! Like how does that work when they talk about policies?

The fact that the leader is a woman is already unreal considering the ideals of the far right where woman are supposed to stay at home and not in a position of power
It really epitomizes how much these people just want to fuck shit up and they don't care how or what happens to themselves or anyone around them as long as shit gets fucked up.
Any other scenario, and obviously it's wrong to do so, but the members of this party eat this woman alive for who she is.

It's that opportunistic way of thinking the most spineless people have. If they align with the group they see as more powerful, they think they will be spared when the group they are actually part of gets victimized.
The maga immigrants and poor people are a perfect example. They think if they join the maga movement they will be spared.

They’re also really, really good at making extremely stupid people feel smart and like they’re in the know.
You get the odd smart person involved that’s all like “it’s just logical, only the alpha should survive” and forgot what humanity even is but by and large it’s people that struggle to do anything of consequence on a daily basis and they finally feel like they’re a part of something and know what’s going on.
The United States joined Russia to vote against a UN General Assembly resolution condemning Russia’s war against Ukraine Monday in a stunning shift from years of US policy.
The vote against the Ukrainian and European-backed resolution saw the US at odds with its longtime European allies and instead aligned with the aggressor in the war on the three-year anniversary of Moscow’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
It came as the Trump administration has pursued discussions with Moscow about ending the war as the President Donald Trump has ratcheted up his rhetoric towards Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
"I can not fathom the emptiness, the insecurity, the insatiable need for attention and validation, the staggering arrogance, the malevolence and total void of human experience that is Elon Musk.
He's the richest man on the planet. You can't go anywhere or do anything without interacting with something he's part of in some way. There are literal millions of people who uncritically worship him, in spite of overwhelming evidence that he's a douchebag. Some number of them will come after me, as they come after anyone who points at their naked emperor.
They'll spend entire days going after me and people like me, slavishly serving a man who does not even know they exist. They are his army of fools, uncritically serving his every whim. And it still isn't enough.
He can have any material thing he wants, and he will never be happy or satisfied.
He has no real friends. Every single person around him is either a viper, a parasite, or both.
So what does he do? He bullies and threatens and harasses and trolls and behaves like the weak, scared, insecure child he has always been. That's a tragedy for him, but it's dangerous for us. He doesn't care what he destroys or who he hurts as he chases this existential thing he can not ever have.
You know the saying "hurt people hurt people"? He's a hurt person who is hurting our society, making people I care about less safe. The consequences of this one man's midlife crisis are global, and that terrifies me."
US is gonna have another 9/11 on their hands soon, and it's probably going to be US citizens that do it.
Another 9/11 or US Civil War 2.0? Politics is so polarized these days. It's either the bat shit nut jobs MAGAs, with the sidekick DOGE against the Democrats and any other demographic of Americans that Trump and Elon hates. Perhaps there are elements within the U.S. military, excluding the generals that Cheeto fired already, who could stage a coup?
An AI-generated video depicting Donald Trump absolutely smothering Elon Musk’s weird feet with his whole mouth with a text overlay that read “Long Live The Real King” ran on a loop on TVs throughout the agency’s headquarters this morning, according to multiple reports and eye-witnesses.

Or someone might take out Trump or Musk. When you fire that many people, including career intelligence officials, you risk letting go of the wrong person or group, and they might take matters into their own hands.
Then there are his own supporters, who rely on government programs that he and the Republicans are gutting. When people feel they have no options left, nothing good ever comes of it.
