i actually can’t fathom how people use threads or whatever. none of my close friends ever did and the way they run things never incentivized me to go over there. but, man… is that interface ugly. it’s soooo interesting that independent social media is always so much more creative than the big names. they cannibalize themselves and are incapable of original thought or design because they aren’t userbase first.

It doesn't natter what the alt right or media claims, Elon Musk did a sieg heil salute.

And it matters that he did that. He is the richest person on this planet and now has major stakes in the US government

So yes, having neo-nazi's run one of the worlds leading countries does matter a lot

Call the beast for what it is

I don't know how much clearer it needs to be for any pro-"AI" academics than the collusion of government and tech giants announcing $500b in funding for "AI to cure cancer" while simultaneously preparing to gut the NIH: you are digging your own grave.

It's long been pretty clear that Elon's a neo-Nazi. He's an Apartheid baby who's obsessed with genetics, let blue-check Nazis run wild on X and is backing a German neo-Nazi party. There's no reason to give him any benefit of the doubt.

But the press will, and that allows him to guve a shout out to his base and then say he's just trolling the libs. #Elon #fascism #trump
