MODERATORS
Did you not read all of my response.
Consistency is required when looking at the problems we have.
This is happenong to Musk, but the same happens to people on the left.
Smears happen without proof, just for going against the status quo.
This seems to be a smear for not siding with Israel, and calling for peace.
Your response does not help make your point, it does the opposite.
I am not sure what you are trying to get across.
Reminds me of Trump derangement syndrome.
Again, we have enough to bash Musk as is, no need to lie or make up things.
Yes, that may be so.
That is why I commented, to educate myself on what I did not know, and what I thought it was about.
People that know or are confident in opposing what I say will hopefully teach me a different point of view.
Yeah right, as if anybody parroting your trumptard garbage is looking to "learn the truth"
Russian collusion with Trump is real, several of his employees went to prison over it. Then he pardoned them. Then he continued to publicly kiss Putin's ass even while trashing the American military and intelligence agencies.
Trump lost the 2020 election and failed to present any tangible evidence of widespread election fraud causing the vast majority of his legal cases to fail. He had his day in court about that and lost as hard as possible.
Then he incited the 2021 insurrection purely out of his own hubris from being a sore loser, and now he's on trial for that and will be going to prison.
Blue MAGA or MAGA
I am neither.
Thanks for the info!
Only Trumpers believe in Blue MAGA so you’re telling on yourself.
You're right, we don't have to make up anything. Glad you reached the point (but probably still missed it)
It seems you pointed something out, but failed to explain your thought process.
What did I miss?
That no one is making up a) his glowing endorsement of an antisemitic tweet and b) that advertisers have had their ads show up next to antisemitic (and otherwise racist) tweets, which is not a look many brands want to go with. We don't have to make this shit up; it's just what ol' musky does. And if it walks like an antisemite, and it quacks like an antisemite...
Not my responsibility to explain what you don't understand. That's a right wing tactic to try and make people explain each nitpicky bit
What do you mean without proof? Did you see the post the Musk said “is absolute truth”. Even Musk is not denying that that happened.
Trump derangement syndrome is where a person believes that Trump can do no wrong, is exceptionally strong and intelligent, and has been anointed by god to save the world from liberal vermin. It is rampant on twitter and among musk fanatics.
