OT: American Politics

Decided to check in on what was formerly R/The_Donald

Starting strong:

But on to the main event

MAGA isn't budging on this...then someone posted this, suggesting that this entire issue is a psyop to divide them:

but the top comments aren't having it:

Small sample, but The_Donald is usually pretty indicative of where MAGA is "intellectually" and I think they just realized that the emperor has no clothes....with the emperor being Elon this time. It will be interesting to see what Donald does/says here and if it aligns with Elon, if the masses just slide into line or not.
 
You're all cordially invited to join me.

Really easy trap to fall into man, but that's kind of the point from "their" standpoint.

This is all basically a chapter out of the playbook of Russian propaganda. You flood the public conversation with a massive torrent of bullshit, and try to create an environment where parsing the truth out of any of it is extremely difficult. At that point, well meaning people who just want to take care of their family and ignore the noise. But that cedes full control to the ownership class to dictate what is true and what isn't.

Oh I understand all that Mindz, I meant that in a tongue in cheek kind of way.

One can't simply turn a blind eye to the world around you and expect everything to be all wonderful and perfect.

A break from all the bullshit is needed by times though.

Happy fucking New Year, lol.
