L O L G O Pthis is a fun way of explaining that you've never read any of these three books
Comfortably Numb@lolgop Just how fucking stupid this enormous asshole can be? I used to simply dislike him, now I despise him.
Bernie Luckily Does It@lolgop To be fair, about the only thing all three books have in common are that they're set on planet Earth, and we are, technically, there.
Aspiring Luddite🕯️📜@BernieDoesIt @lolgop Yes. Earth.
BUT IS IT FLAT?!? I'm just asking questions...
Ford Eytou@purist @BernieDoesIt @lolgop I'm seeing three flat earths, have we been duped into thinking there is only one flat earth?!?! 🥞 🤔

Ivan the brown one@Ivanthemiserable @BernieDoesIt @lolgop Main stream media HATES this one WEIRD trick to lower your AUTO INSURANCE!
Nicole ParsonsAll three books share a theme. The dangers of autocracy and cognitive prisons.
The freedom that's under attack now is the freedom to think as you like.
Musk is a man investing in embedded neurological chips to control even that.
@doctorow rightfully points out, what happens to the consumer if the manufacturer of such tech goes out of business?

Criticize him on social media and he'll cut off the security updates.

@Just_Tired @BernieDoesIt @lolgop
Musk is precisely that petty.
Sandhu@Npars01 Well, I just brainstormed what they had in common, thought "they take place on Earth," and left it at that. 😉
The point about cognitive prisons is a really insightful one. I really appreciate it.
JR@lolgop Or that he is really an A-.
beevo@lolgop my thoughts exactly. Like wow, lost the plots across the board.
michael_rose@lolgop that’s what happens when you can only relate things to yourself.
Literary Chris@lolgop what's really funny is that Fahrenheit 451 was Ray Bradbury having an "the curtains are fucking blue" moment about how people weren't reading books anymore. He ended up writing the best piece of dystopian fiction ever.
Rhythm Bastard@lolgop We're in Jennifer Government, damn it.
Doreen32128 ready to rumble!@lolgop Exactly! He is clueless about these books!
lachlan slowly taming rust@lolgop Weirdest thing I got out of my last 1984 read was that I forgot that it was a good book. I remembered it being important, but I forgot it was good.
@lolgop (I love the copy I own: It is the standard penguin orange cover, except the words 'Nineteen Eighty Four' and 'George Orwell' are lightly embossed, and then covered in black bars, like they've been redacted)
Anthrodiva@lolgop the man bought his undergrad degree, has no graduate degree (tho he cosplays like he does). Profoundly unlettered.
Lazarou Monkey Terror 🚀💙🌈@lolgop this is like him stealing clout off Iain M Bank's Culture Novels when clearly never having read them.
Peter Butler@lolgop Newspeak, soma (social media), and banned books. I don’t agree with what he’s implying, but it’s not a rocket science argument.
It’s also clear he wants to “Make America Great Again” by returning it to the 1950s.
MGoCoder@lolgop Musk is obsessed with the idea that “freedom” means he can say unbelievably stupid crap whenever he wants and no one will say “shut up you damn fool.”
Humanist Engineer@lolgop what a moron.
Pryzmo@lolgop Its so weird watching wealthy people try to create narrative that doesnt exist.
Guess creating one that does exist is more so our turf🤷♂️

Alex Coventry@lolgop The irony of him posting this as he turns twitter into a Republican propaganda machine...
AutisticMumTo3@lolgop I've read 2 out of the 3 books a long time ago (1984-1986).
Nate V.@lolgop Wow, ignorance on parade.
Alexander9@lolgop he knows what they are all browdly about, but no idea of the stories, themes, or lessons.
CJ the Awkward Lefty@lolgop I'd love to see him try to summarize the plot of any of them.
Never mind, that would require reading something he wrote.
E.G. Phillips@lolgop maybe he doesn’t think that this is a bad thing
edgeoforever 🍎@lolgop what do you expect from the guy who doesn’t get the concept of chess?
Amaury Cork ☑️@lolgop So he read the Wikipedia page of each book, found 3 keywords that match his ideology and wants to look cool to the sci-fi community!
elle mundy@lolgop it’s not a complaint, it’s a threat
Lean Sex Sigma 🇮🇪🇫🇮🏳️🌈
.@lolgop elon and the others aren't posting under the pretense THEY'RE censored, but rather letting you know that THEY control you.
