This really is excellent and should be required reading for anyone pushing AI bullshit.

@fazalmajid @blogdiva Assad killed 300,000 civilians over a decade in Syria: https://edition.cnn.com/2022/07/01/world/syria-war-united-nations-report-intl-hnk/index.html
which Elon bypassed with at least 500,000 deaths in 2025 as CNN reported.
Pol Pot killed at least 1.2 million people according to Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cambodian_genocide
So by the fall we can expect Elon's DOGE cuts to have killed at least that many people.
If we take the higher estimate of 3.3 million annual DOGE deaths, Elon will surpass the 6 million Jews killed in the Holocaust by summer 2027
@fazalmajid @blogdiva For those keeping score at home:
USAID was fully dissolved by July 2025: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/apr/18/trump-administration-usaid-doge-cuts
That means by July 2026 Musk's DOGE cuts to USAID will have been in place for one year.
The Center for Global Development's low estimate of annual deaths might be a million a year.
The Lancet mentions an estimate of 3.3 million deaths prevented by USAID per year.
Elon Musk’s SpaceX IPO will probably make him the richest person to ever walk the planet. And while his mountain of horrible personal conduct could fill multiple books, one fact in particular stands out: A year ago, Musk’s actions directly led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people. He did it knowingly. And, worse — gleefully.

McSweeney's on "AI finances" goes harder than most business publications.
