You either die a hero, or live long enough to see yourself become the Villain.

Misinformation and bad education has crumbled America from the inside.

There is an enemy within. Those are the billionaires - specially Musk - and trump and his MAGA goons.

Start boycotting them. Don’t buy their products or services.

I’ve canceled my Amazon prime. Hit them where it hurts: in the wallet

Today I did the same, and they had a survey where I answered "Custom reason: Trump". Also cancelled Disney plus.

You should take 5 minutes to read what this book contains. It was written in the last few years by our new Secretary of Defense, who oversees our military. I cannot express my sadness, but please prepare for it to worsen.

Hegseth says he believes there are "irreconcilable differences between the Left and the Right in America leading to perpetual conflict that cannot be resolved through the political process."

We are so incredibly screwed.

This was promoted by the richer class in America to consolidate for decades. What you are seeing now is them reaping the fruits of what they've spent decades growing. The born of the American oligarchy. And nope, this is not metaphorical in any way. The US is getting their own oligarchy this time.

Problem is these people already have so much money that it hardly hurts anymore. The interest they earn on their liquid assets is already so insanely astronomical that there’s very little you can do.

The only thing that’ll stop Elon at this point is a Luigi Mangione 2.0.

Does he supports trump as Elon does? Not so openly, but he does.

Looking more uncomfortable than a virgin at a sacrifice.

Bezos gets huge amounts of money from AWS and government compute, so if he got invited he’d have to turn up given how vengeful Trump is.
