@lindyli Didn't know about the James Murdoch-Tesla connection. It explains some things.

@lindyli and both Musk and Murdoch became citizens by “unconventional” means. Now they are destroying our democracy for personal gain.

@lindyli Gonna keep saying it: Every billionaire is a tax policy failure.

@lindyli On Mastodon, we have a much better, vastly improved town square, where not just 1bperson setting rules and behaviour codes. So far, for me a much nicer, gentler, kinder space with so many interesting people to interact with. 🥰

We don't necessarily have a democracy, though we purport to--perhaps it is time we fight for one.

@lindyli
They cannot hijack what was already lost. America traded democracy for oligarchy long ago.

This isn't about undermining or subverting something that no longer exists. This is about establishing a fascist regime in a nuclear-armed country.
