Musk is simultaneously a Nazi and a coward. He knows he's a Nazi. He knows what he did was a Nazi salute but he's too cowardly to simply say "Yes, I'm a Nazi."
And of course the mainstream media is too cowardly to say it too. But we know what we saw.

HOLY MOTHER FUCKING FUCK !??!!

Now is a great time to enthusiastically confirm your support for LGBTQ+ rights - particularly those of trans and enby folks at the moment - and the rights of women, BIPOC communities, and anybody else that the new US administration is actively trying to oppress.

It shouldn't need to be said, but right now it _does_ need to be said. If you are able, consider donating to organisations that are trying to protect them.

Turns out Donald Trump isn't the only world leader with a tech billionaire "first buddy" who gets to serve as an unaccountable, self-interested de facto business regulator. UK PM Keir Starmer has just handed the keys to the British economy over to Jeff Bezos.

Don’t forget folks, self care is so important right now. Create little positive things in your day. Bake cookies. Go for a walk. Talk to someone you love. Indulge in your hobbies and interests. Find your moments of joy. Give yourself permission to find things to be happy about even when the big picture is not going well
