ExtremeDullardElon Musk is hella guilty for sure.
But I think everybody keeps forgetting about the sonsabitch kids who worked for DOGE and took orders from Elon Musk. Kids like Big Balls: they too have blood on their hands, and they too should be on the list of people who should be put on trial when this whole fascist affair is over.
Also, I wonder if they’ll ever feel shame or remorse when they get older and they reflect on the evil they did as kids at an age when they, perhaps, didn’t know no better…
Big Balls keeps getting called a “kid” but he was just 19, wasn’t he? if he’s too old for Trump he’s old enough to know better
A 19 year old doesn’t make the best decisions in life. Neither does a 25 year old. You realize how dumb you were when you were younger as you age.
And I’ve aged enough to tell you this: if Corristine was as dumb as I was at 19, he may have been too old for Trump, but he was certainly much too young to hold a position in the Federal administration and execute orders from a nefarious adult South African Nazi - or more importantly, refuse to execute them.
“Nazis were just poor innocent kids following orders” that’s how fucking stupid you sound defending those cunts. Anyone involved with doge knew what the fuck they were doing, age has no bearing on being a Nazi piece of shit.
If you bothered to read my initial comment, you would read:

Them kids are guilty as fuck and they should pay dearly for that they did. That doesn’t mean they didn’t make bad decisions because they were too young. Two things can be true at the same time.
His maternal grandfather, Valery Martynov, was a KGB lieutenant colonel executed in 1987 by the Soviet Union as a double agent.
I can’t have security clearance because weed is federally illegal (despite being legal in my state), but just give this fucker the keys to the castle.
Like, I know you shouldn’t judge an individual by their ancestors actions…but like…c’mon. Really?
LucidlethargyThese kids were old enough to know better.
They don’t get a pass.
SibshopsFeels like crocodile tears, his whole point was to kill brown people.
That, destroy any agency that could expose his shit businesses, and scrape as much private info as possible.
JohnmannescaYears of apartheid training sprung into action, yet couldn’t understand common business-oriented language despite claiming to be a nerd. It’s shameful on nearly every level of being how a self-professed engineer that builds war crime machines for fun that can’t read believes he’s killed/harmed nobody.
AlmaccaThat interview where he claimed it was zero, with no blow-back from the reporter was infuriating. If you’re gonna ask him questions like that, you have to assume he’s going to lie to cover his arse and bring receipts.
Obviously not as bad, not that it’s a competition, but the hundreds of thousands who lost their jobs & careers over Elon getting carried away.

Elon musk should be publicly executed and that day should be made a holiday
This is a public holiday i can get behind! Wait, I can get behind all of them
It’s not just that awful guy Elon; the Secretary of Health has also directly caused the deaths of several hundred thousand people by ruthlessly scrapping vital global programs that took decades to build (the CDC does not exist anymore for example - at least not as a credible, scientific institution which it, of course, needs to be to serve it’s purpose).
Added to this are many horrible war crimes for which the US regime, together with Israel, is responsible.
Hell, it would be impossible to list all the crimes against humanity without writing an entire novel about them. There are just too many in not even two years.
So, in short: It would be good if U.S. citizens were aware of the global impact of their irresponsibility.
But hey, maybe the world will learn from this, which will only accelerate the inevitable downfall of the U.S. There’s even a somewhat recent historical precedent for this: Russia.
That country was once a superpower, too, but it was ruined by the greed of its billionaires and is now an autocracy that serves solely to enrich its rulers - back then, by the way, this was already happening and only possible with the generous support of the U.S. billionaires under Clinton.
So it seems very, very obvious: This is apparently inevitable for the U.S. as well, because the only thing that could stop it would be the population—and despite all the obvious crimes, the people aren’t fighting back. So the country is lost.
The world, for its part, will adapt.
CDC doesnt exist anymore???
yall needa revolt
Why? Yeah we’re all gonna die in horrible ways but
What a pointless comment….
im just shocked
If you only seriously realize this when using some random social media app, you’re the perfect example of how this could have happened. If not, then all the more so.
I realized that they basically defunded the CDC now because I live REALLY far away from america and dont subscribe to depressing us news
It’s less trustworthy in the guidelines but it’s not defunded.
Then maybe you should hold back on making sarcastic comments about things you know nothing about.
Aside from the fact that mainstream social media apps are being misused by billionaires for their own purposes, that’s the biggest problem here: people who get in the way of a meaningful discussion because they feel the need to post something they find funny.
This isn’t a topic where jokes are appropriate. You may not grasp the consequences, but it’s exactly as I say: Hundreds of thousands of people are dying because of this.
And yet: You think this is a joke. That’s disgusting, nothing more.
Business as usual for the heartless empire.
Elon is a monstrous turd who has certainly killed plenty of people with his actions but I really doubt those numbers. The only time I’ve heard people cite these things about USAID they’re based on projections from how many people were receiving aid, not actual, recorded deaths. From what I understand, some of the void left by USAID has been filled by other international and local organizations so those projections are extremely flawed and inflated.
Do you have a source for this?
Yeah, probably too low
Some of the void has been filled, yep, so it’s only 300,000 so far, according to Al Jazeera.
Agreed. I’m sure there have been and will continue to be some deaths as a direct result of abruptly halting aid like this, but I wouldn’t be surprised if the broad result was actually a soft power vacuum that enabled China to casually dance their way into being the good guy for millions of people, paving the way for good international relations in regions that were otherwise gonna be hard as fuck for them to enter. Now their foot is in the door.
A little carried away with politics and became a trillionare in the process.
Could I see a source on that? (Unless it’s an exaggeration, in which case please ignore my thickness)
Edit: I mean the number of deaths, not the elon quote
I believe most of them were due to USAID cuts.
https://www.impactcounter.com/dashboard has some stats showing deaths in the 750k range.

Edit: Ah, I see you meant source for the # not the quote
I was looking for a source for the quote, so I appreciate you.
Sounds like he doesn’t really regret getting involved in politics at all based on his follow up answers. Probably just regrets that he alienated the people most likely to buy his cars.
I’m sure nothing has ever been his fault in his narrative
Food shortages. It’s largely timing because the Russia war had already limited shipments of grain and increased costs, and they cut off food suddenly. It’s not like there was a transition period and they had time to plant crops and have a growing season.
