There are tons of left leaning people that are on our side because they can think for themselves: Scott Adams, Tim Pool, Dave Rubin, Victor Davis Hanson.
Tim Pool is a fence center because it makes him the most money he just happens to know the majority of his donations come from the right so he slightly leans right.
^ This applies to nearly EVERY journalist, commentator, news figure.
Many people don't get it. They think "FOX" is on our side. Or loony lefties think MSNPC is on their side. No, no they just say whatever keeps you watching and clicking.
Too many people don't think for themselves anymore. Sad!
On the other hand, what's really that wrong for him to sit on a fence when one big criteria on being a profession journalist is to literally be impartial? I mean, if you DEMAND some other person to sacrifice his earning powers to double, triple down his "beliefs" that's not too far away from the failures of "Get woke go broke".
That's exactly what people say is wrong about "if you aren't with us you're against us mentality", one shouldn't demand "worshipers only".
I'm kind of 50/50 with him. I think it's fine, not like he is running for office (yet). He is good at his business and I would want him in my state. The neurolink thing kind of worries me if fully realized.
Nowadays got to worry about the Bernie Sanders types who pretend to be against the establishment so I do understand why a lot of people are overly cautious here.
Because most of the people claiming that are literally saying not to talk about that person here. It's ok to think someone isn't MAGA. Not ok to try to force that down everyone's throat.
ā08 Obama was the only Democrat my parents ever voted for in their 40+ years of voting. When you combine how unappealing McCain was, with how good Obama and his media sycophants were able to make him look, plus the whole āopportunity to make history by electing the first African Americanā, Obama seemed like the easy choice.
Honestly I sorta wish I wasn't redpilled. Being red is nice, but the Dems are going to take power forever soon. Being on the winning side for the rest of my life would be nice, even if the policies are literally retarded. I don't know how I'll be able to stand year after year of dem president
I voted for Obama and Clinton. We need to redpill as many people as possible. Reagan was a Democrat at one point. So was Rupert Murdoch. So was David Horowitz. So was Thomas Sowell. If we crucified everyone who once upon a time voted for Democrats, we wouldn't have very many thought leaders left.
You don't know your own argument until you know your opponent's. People who've been redpilled are invaluable in their ability to show where the secret paths are out of the leftist woods.
Its easy to see in retrospect that they had that election sewn up one way or the other.
In my mind, it's completely irrelevant who you voted for before GEOTUS, we were so screwed before he showed up its a miracle we lasted long enough to see him get elected. Thank God for this timeline.
Even though Obama talked about āspreading the wealthā and āfundamentally transforming America?ā And that Church he and his wife went to, where the Rev. Right said āGD Americaā.
08 was my first election, and Iām proud to say I wasnāt fooled.
You're not wrong but I couldn't bring myself to vote for McCain. I decided around 2004 (the original "Giant Douche v. Turd Sandwich" election) that I wasn't going to vote "against" anybody (for Prez at least) and that the person should have to earn my vote one way or another.
McCain had ample opportunity to do that and he failed. Ditto Willard.
Being too young for the Reagan years, Trump was the 1st time l ever voted for a major party. I always voted libertarian. Even though I have never won an election before, with hindsight I'm glad I never voted for a McCain Romney Bush Obama Clinton etc uniparty establishment trash.
I voted for Obama, because after George Bush and 911, I believed I was going to get transparency, I knew I was fucked when I downloaded his birth certificate and opened it in illustrator, I didn't vote for him a second time, and I was dealing with Stupid Storm Sandy.
Elon is not a guy to sit in meetings where he's not advancing his Telsa or SpaceX company. Love 45, but some of his meetings are more for media effect than that their actually effective.
It's more effective than you think. His every move is 4 D chess. If elon is a bad choice than he will just end up getting exposed. And one who tries to fuck over POTUS winds up getting exposed as a fraud
Do you even know how many subsidies Trump got for his businesses when he got started? Do some reading. Also, Elon or Trump didn't make the rules regarding gvt subsidies. If they don't use them, some other company will.
Yep! Right after āCharlottesville.ā Elon claimed that he couldnāt work with a racist who praised white Supremacists as āvery fine peopleā. I was really disappointed that he bought into that false narrative hook, line and sinker. He needs to disavow.
My guess is the Deep State has been trying to entice Musk, and Musk knows some of the things they offered and can see the corruption built into that. Musk is going to Red Pill millions of people.
The White House official page just posted a photo of the red roses in the Rose Garden in bloom. Maybe youāre reading a little too much into symbolism.
He's very public about the fact that he's a socialist. People here just want to ignore that because they like some of the things he's said recently.
It's just as silly as the people pretending that we should import 1 million foreigners per year because 10% of them don't vote to destroy our country, and say "muh based legals" all the time, while 90% DO vote to destroy our country.
The source is his twitter where he said, verbatim, "I am a socialist". Search "Elon Musk socialist" and stories about it with links to the tweet in question are the first links.
And no, he wasn't being ironic, either (which he made clear in comment replies).
I know plenty of conservatives that drive them because they like it. They know itās essentially a coal powered car. They donāt care. They just like like the ingenuity and the gas savings. If I had enough money to own and maintain several cars, a Tesla would definitely be something I would consider for getting around town.
And ask them from where the charging stations get their power from...they'll never admit to coal or nuclear as it would make them look bad; so they'll either say renewable sources, or just give you a pikachu face then call you a nazi.
Teslas are empirically better cars, and for reasons that have absolutely nothing to do with environmentalism.
Get behind the wheel of one (call your local showroom for a test drive; if you're smooth, you could even get them to loan one to you for a week to "see how a Tesla fits in to your life") and you will see.
They're egregiously fast, and autopilot literally changes your driving life forever.
Lol, somebody better let all the leftist trash driving their Biden-sticker-adorned Teslas here in coastal California know that they canāt afford them.
Because they think being on the side of "the people" will save them when the radicalists come for them.
Though the truly rich already have their underground mansion bunkers in New Zealand, with a plane ready fueled to take them there when "it all goes down."
Thatās hilarious there will be the utmost irony of some psycho destroying an extremely energy resource intensive energy efficient car just for SJW gibs.
On Joe Rogan he talked about minimalism and not needing all of those properties. You could be right though; you don't tell a psycho bitch that you're leaving her in 2 months. You pack up your shit and tell her when you are already out the door.
Do you think he was directing the red rose people to red pills? The two signals seem confusing otherwise, unless the democratic socialists are trying to userp the term red pill.
But all of the things happening to Musk, plus his Trumpesque twitter presence, it seems like a really plausible explanation. To suck socialist dick after they have continually screwed you over would be monumentally stupid.. but I guess that's one of their defining characteristics..
Guys, I think if you actually read the whole tweet you'd realize he's probably referring to more "government investment into future tech" (which means more cash for Elons ventures" versus) "government controls the means of production", which he certainly alludes to as well as he clearly isnt a socialist faggot just as a general person.

Right that was 2 years ago. And today heās saying heās been redpilled. Meaning, his mind has been changed from what he once believed. Aka, heās been redpilled on the bullshit that is socialism.
Nope, he's never supported Trump and he's always been pro-socialism
"By the way, I am actually a socialist. Just not the kind that shifts resources from most productive to least productive, pretending to do good, while actually causing harm."
Before the election of Donald Trump as President of the United States, Musk criticized candidate Trump by saying: "I feel a bit stronger that he is probably not the right guy. He doesn't seem to have the sort of character that reflects well on the United States."[276] Following Donald Trump's inauguration, Musk expressed approval of Trump's choice of Rex Tillerson as Secretary of State and accepted an invitation to participate in two councils advising President Trump.[277][278] Regarding his cooperation with Trump, Musk has subsequently commented: "The more voices of reason that the President hears, the better."[279] He subsequently resigned from both business advisory councils in June 2017, in protest at Trump's decision to withdraw the United States from the Paris Agreement on climate change, stating: "Climate change is real. Leaving Paris is not good for America or the world".[280][281] In May 2020, amidst Musk's restarting of Tesla assembly plant production during the COVID-19 pandemic, Trump tweeted in support of Musk, which Musk welcomed and publicly thanked him for on Twitter.[282][283]
In August 2019, Musk came out on Twitter in support of the 2020 Democratic presidential candidate Andrew Yang, whose platform revolves around the ongoing problem of job displacement through technological automation and artificial intelligence. Musk said in a tweet that universal basic income, which Yang supports, is "obviously needed."[284]
I think the socialist comment is being taken too literally. The comment isnāt supposed to mean that he likes Karl Marx or something. Heās saying that he, as a capitalist, is benefiting the world, thus qualifying as a sort-of āgoodā socialist who is doing good for society.
If anything, his comment is a silent roast of traditional socialism because it moves resources āfrom most productive to least productive.ā Heās attacking the notion that only traditional socialists care about general welfare.

Paris even for a global warming loom was a fraud. So obviously would have shifted production to hell holes with a fraction of the regulations the US has.
Unfortunately, I think you are right. The rose clearly is meant to represent the socialist rose. He is saying to get red pilled on socialism. Bummer. JR. should take down this tweet.
That is good news. It almost seems too good. Tesla is the most popular car in my smug leftist area and love the thought of how much this must irk those people.
My point being is that it doesn't matter whether that rose was meant to be a reference to socialism. No one read it as such.
All the lefty media just trained their crosshairs on him for that tweet. He will get so much shit from the them now, he will be pushed to the right soon by their hatred, even if he wasn't there yet.
Don't get me wrong, I absolutely hope that you are correct and joins the Trump train or becomes conservative leaning, but I still think it's veiled. However, we will see as people are getting goddamn tired of the censorship coming out of the left.
Thank you, all that this person could do was downvote, mock and use emojis. That's the best argument that they can make. It's like talking to leftists when you use facts.
It's ambiguous what he is saying, which may be his intention. Everyone is going nuts over this lol. Musk aligns with Trump and conservatives in some ways, and not in other ways. The end
I wouldn't put too much stock into this as far as the whole movement goes, but the tipping point for California to be more competitive (at least at the top: Gov., Sens.) could soon be on the horizon.
Elon talking shit and encouraging others to wake up is good and it hurts Newsom and the Dems in CA. Especially if he actually leaves that would be a red pill moment for a lot of people for sure and maybe even some in Silicon Valley.
This is a tough call for reddit to make now. Do they continue loving Elon or now hate him for siding with their own elected president of the United States?
There is a lot of compatibility between us and Andrew Yang supporters. Andrew Yang supporters are some of the most calm-headed and solution oriented people I've ever had the pleasure to talk to. I'd love to see some come build a coalition with us!
Yeah, Yang was the only Dem candidate that truly seems to love America. I donāt agree with his policies but heās the kind of guy that you could actually have a respectful debate with.
He also passes the āIād have a beer with themā politician test.
GEOTUS needs to bring Musk in closer. Now's the time. Can't always agree, but Musk is at least a true American who doesn't believe Orange Man Bad.
People can change their minds fren. Not all of us were on the Trump train when it left the station.
That's why it's so easy to spot a Karen of either gender. They think you are what you are forever and they hate it if you're not like them.
There are tons of left leaning people that are on our side because they can think for themselves: Scott Adams, Tim Pool, Dave Rubin, Victor Davis Hanson.
Tim Pool is a fence center because it makes him the most money he just happens to know the majority of his donations come from the right so he slightly leans right.

I don't want to listen to someone because I agree with them. I listen if what they say has value.
On one hand he's probably one big fence sitter.
On the other hand, what's really that wrong for him to sit on a fence when one big criteria on being a profession journalist is to literally be impartial?

Oh sorry. I donāt even watch the guy to be honest. Iāll start watching him when he takes off that stupid fucking hat and shaves his neck beard.

SHILL ALERT!!! ....oh wait...
That is one thing about this site (and reddit) that I don't like.
You're either with the narrative or you're a "shill"
Wait, you said either gender. That implies two genders! You bigot!!!
Haha!!! Yeah, I go by plumbing at birth, not feels.
In fact 13 percent of Trump voters previously voted for Obama. Minds can change, Iām one of them myself.
I voted for obama in 2008 because I thought maybe we would finally just "end racism" by electing the black guy. My how that backfired.
I find this post funnier than I should. Made me lol.
If 0bama just did his one job, there wouldn't be BLM.
ā08 Obama was the only Democrat my parents ever voted for in their 40+ years of voting. When you combine how unappealing McCain was, with how good Obama and his media sycophants were able to make him look, plus the whole āopportunity to make history by electing the first African Americanā, Obama seemed like the easy choice.
Plus the iraq war, stock market crash, katrina and real estate crash were all blamed on republicans for whatever reason
Just like good 'ol 'rona
As is tradition.
We are literally blamed for slavery despite being the party that was created mainly on the platform of the anti slavery movement.
Honestly I sorta wish I wasn't redpilled. Being red is nice, but the Dems are going to take power forever soon. Being on the winning side for the rest of my life would be nice, even if the policies are literally retarded. I don't know how I'll be able to stand year after year of dem president
You're blackpilled my friend. Lay off red pills for a bit, you're overdosed.
Yep
I voted for Obama and Clinton. We need to redpill as many people as possible. Reagan was a Democrat at one point. So was Rupert Murdoch. So was David Horowitz. So was Thomas Sowell. If we crucified everyone who once upon a time voted for Democrats, we wouldn't have very many thought leaders left.
You don't know your own argument until you know your opponent's. People who've been redpilled are invaluable in their ability to show where the secret paths are out of the leftist woods.
Trump was a Democrat as well...
"They all loved me, and introduced me to their children when I was a democrat"
As is custom with Democrats: āHere have my first born childā.
They must have been confused when Trump didnāt take them into some private room.
Well ..... thats why Biden is a dem... he listened to Trump!
Yup. Facts.
Its easy to see in retrospect that they had that election sewn up one way or the other.
In my mind, it's completely irrelevant who you voted for before GEOTUS, we were so screwed before he showed up its a miracle we lasted long enough to see him get elected. Thank God for this timeline.
It was a sham election
Even though Obama talked about āspreading the wealthā and āfundamentally transforming America?ā And that Church he and his wife went to, where the Rev. Right said āGD Americaā.
08 was my first election, and Iām proud to say I wasnāt fooled.
McCain was a saint at the time comparatively.
You're not wrong but I couldn't bring myself to vote for McCain. I decided around 2004 (the original "Giant Douche v. Turd Sandwich" election) that I wasn't going to vote "against" anybody (for Prez at least) and that the person should have to earn my vote one way or another.
McCain had ample opportunity to do that and he failed. Ditto Willard.
I voted McCain Because he was on the R ticket. But I hear you on the proverbial giant douche v. Turd sandwich
Being too young for the Reagan years, Trump was the 1st time l ever voted for a major party. I always voted libertarian. Even though I have never won an election before, with hindsight I'm glad I never voted for a McCain Romney Bush Obama Clinton etc uniparty establishment trash.
First winning Prez candidate I ever voted for too. Two more in a row and we can get a streak going.
I voted for Obama, because after George Bush and 911, I believed I was going to get transparency, I knew I was fucked when I downloaded his birth certificate and opened it in illustrator, I didn't vote for him a second time, and I was dealing with Stupid Storm Sandy.
Yep. I didn't vote for him in 16, but I damn sure will in 20.
Well said!
He left the post because Trump wouldnt extend the Tesla tax credits. It was a good move for shareholders/virtue signaling to the left.
Tesla was vulnerable then. It's a giant now. He doesn't need to bow to anyone any longer. This is the new Elon. Enjoy
He is standing with us at the most important time in the Trump presidency. So hell he is welcome aboard
You would suck at running a business. If the government is giving you tax cuts, you take them.
Elon is not a guy to sit in meetings where he's not advancing his Telsa or SpaceX company. Love 45, but some of his meetings are more for media effect than that their actually effective.
It's more effective than you think. His every move is 4 D chess. If elon is a bad choice than he will just end up getting exposed. And one who tries to fuck over POTUS winds up getting exposed as a fraud
He left because he didn't get his Tesla tax credits renewed.
Would you rather him have stayed and tried to commit espionage like everyone else who has gotten strong armed by Trump?
Do you even know how many subsidies Trump got for his businesses when he got started? Do some reading. Also, Elon or Trump didn't make the rules regarding gvt subsidies. If they don't use them, some other company will.
THIS. All day long.
Dude has an unnatural obsession with Elon on a personal level for some reason.
Fucking Elon Derangement Syndrome.
Damn that is steaming pile of dumb opinion
He left because he didn't get his Tesla tax credits renewed.
It was never about Orange Man Bad.
Yep! Right after āCharlottesville.ā Elon claimed that he couldnāt work with a racist who praised white Supremacists as āvery fine peopleā. I was really disappointed that he bought into that false narrative hook, line and sinker. He needs to disavow.
My guess is the Deep State has been trying to entice Musk, and Musk knows some of the things they offered and can see the corruption built into that. Musk is going to Red Pill millions of people.
Have you heard him on Joe Rogan? He really sounds like a true libertarian like the POTUS.
One more African American vote for the good guys.
underrated
If Trump tweeted out that "Elon Musk is one of my favorite African- Americans" ... it would cause SO many heads to explode.
This must be so hard for the lefties. What will they do with their Teslas? I absolutely love it.
This is nimble navigation!
It struck me as odd as well. There are a lot of crazy, libtard twitter users that put a rose at the end of their name. Why a rose?
The White House official page just posted a photo of the red roses in the Rose Garden in bloom. Maybe youāre reading a little too much into symbolism.
He's very public about the fact that he's a socialist. People here just want to ignore that because they like some of the things he's said recently.
It's just as silly as the people pretending that we should import 1 million foreigners per year because 10% of them don't vote to destroy our country, and say "muh based legals" all the time, while 90% DO vote to destroy our country.
Can you post some sauce to back this up? He railed against the stimulus check and specifically called out UBI on Joe Rogan earlier this week.
The source is his twitter where he said, verbatim, "I am a socialist". Search "Elon Musk socialist" and stories about it with links to the tweet in question are the first links.
And no, he wasn't being ironic, either (which he made clear in comment replies).
I guess you didn't see him on Rogan this week blasting Socialism and government authoritarianism
you misunderstand the deranged mind. They drive electric car not because they like it but for the virtue signaling potential.
I know plenty of conservatives that drive them because they like it. They know itās essentially a coal powered car. They donāt care. They just like like the ingenuity and the gas savings. If I had enough money to own and maintain several cars, a Tesla would definitely be something I would consider for getting around town.
And ask them from where the charging stations get their power from...they'll never admit to coal or nuclear as it would make them look bad; so they'll either say renewable sources, or just give you a pikachu face then call you a nazi.

IKR - Like zero to sixty in nothing flat.
Teslas are fucking dope.
libs cant afford teslas tho
Lol, somebody better let all the leftist trash driving their Biden-sticker-adorned Teslas here in coastal California know that they canāt afford them.
Fo sho, never thought of it like that before.
The demographics regarding wealth and politics stance have totally shifted in the last 25 years or so. The Uber wealthy more often than not liberal.
Because they think being on the side of "the people" will save them when the radicalists come for them.
Though the truly rich already have their underground mansion bunkers in New Zealand, with a plane ready fueled to take them there when "it all goes down."
Libs just go into debt for everything they want, so in that sense they can 'afford' them
ššš
Thatās hilarious there will be the utmost irony of some psycho destroying an extremely energy resource intensive energy efficient car just for SJW gibs.
I so hope he moves to Texas and tell California to fuck off
I rather hope California goes completely red this November. Completely red.
That would be nice but those nuts never change
It's called the land of the fruits nuts and flakes for a reason after all.
On Joe Rogan he talked about minimalism and not needing all of those properties. You could be right though; you don't tell a psycho bitch that you're leaving her in 2 months. You pack up your shit and tell her when you are already out the door.
hilarious username- would pay literal money to hear a remake of the song with new lyrics
Ha! this shows how reddit killed t_d.. I used to be on it all day every day, now I see it's been 19 days since I checked here. Ty btw
Good to know
Reddit dipshits are on suicide watch after this lol

Do you think he was directing the red rose people to red pills? The two signals seem confusing otherwise, unless the democratic socialists are trying to userp the term red pill.
It is what they do.. subvert the language..
But all of the things happening to Musk, plus his Trumpesque twitter presence, it seems like a really plausible explanation. To suck socialist dick after they have continually screwed you over would be monumentally stupid.. but I guess that's one of their defining characteristics..
Care to offer counter sources if that's true? You can't ignore the symbolism here. It was included for a reason. The elites use symbols all the time.
Heās referencing it. Saying he has been red pilled on the bullshit that is socialism.
A lot of dumbshit liberal twitter users have that rose by their name. It's a growing trend, from what I saw.
Elon openly admits he's a socialist, look it up.
Here I'll do it for you: https://www.qwant.com/?q=elon+admits+he%27s+a+socialist&client=brz-brave
Guys, I think if you actually read the whole tweet you'd realize he's probably referring to more "government investment into future tech" (which means more cash for Elons ventures" versus) "government controls the means of production", which he certainly alludes to as well as he clearly isnt a socialist faggot just as a general person.
He said heās a fucking socialist, so itās not a stretch:

"By the way, I am actually a socialist. Just not the kind that shifts resources from most productive to least productive, pretending to do good, while actually causing harm."
"True socialism seeks greatest good for all."
He's definitely not pro-Trump:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elon_Musk
Before the election of Donald Trump as President of the United States, Musk criticized candidate Trump by saying: "I feel a bit stronger that he is probably not the right guy. He doesn't seem to have the sort of character that reflects well on the United States."[276] Following Donald Trump's inauguration, Musk expressed approval of Trump's choice of Rex Tillerson as Secretary of State and accepted an invitation to participate in two councils advising President Trump.[277][278] Regarding his cooperation with Trump, Musk has subsequently commented: "The more voices of reason that the President hears, the better."[279] He subsequently resigned from both business advisory councils in June 2017, in protest at Trump's decision to withdraw the United States from the Paris Agreement on climate change, stating: "Climate change is real. Leaving Paris is not good for America or the world".[280][281] In May 2020, amidst Musk's restarting of Tesla assembly plant production during the COVID-19 pandemic, Trump tweeted in support of Musk, which Musk welcomed and publicly thanked him for on Twitter.[282][283]
In August 2019, Musk came out on Twitter in support of the 2020 Democratic presidential candidate Andrew Yang, whose platform revolves around the ongoing problem of job displacement through technological automation and artificial intelligence. Musk said in a tweet that universal basic income, which Yang supports, is "obviously needed."[284]
Paris even for a global warming loom was a fraud. So obviously would have shifted production to hell holes with a fraction of the regulations the US has.
Unfortunately, I think you are right. The rose clearly is meant to represent the socialist rose. He is saying to get red pilled on socialism. Bummer. JR. should take down this tweet.
He literally mocked Marx and communism in another tweet today. Itās our Red Pill.
That is good news. It almost seems too good. Tesla is the most popular car in my smug leftist area and love the thought of how much this must irk those people.
counter point: Do a search right now on: elon musk take the red pill tweet

My point being is that it doesn't matter whether that rose was meant to be a reference to socialism. No one read it as such. All the lefty media just trained their crosshairs on him for that tweet. He will get so much shit from the them now, he will be pushed to the right soon by their hatred, even if he wasn't there yet.
Don't get me wrong, I absolutely hope that you are correct and joins the Trump train or becomes conservative leaning, but I still think it's veiled. However, we will see as people are getting goddamn tired of the censorship coming out of the left.
Yes, look at his history. When you do research into his character, it makes way more sense than suddenly his becoming pro-MAGA.
MAGA is not about Trump, but it is the antithesis of socialism.
Heās a fucking socialist. Thatās the āpolitical boxā he says heās in.

Thank you, all that this person could do was downvote, mock and use emojis. That's the best argument that they can make. It's like talking to leftists when you use facts.
Has no one on this forum seen or heard of the DSA? The rose is their symbol, they use it constantly in their materials
Yang is a clown, his entire platform was a joke
Wait till he sees what his former friends say to that. His red pill will accelerate
It's ambiguous what he is saying, which may be his intention. Everyone is going nuts over this lol. Musk aligns with Trump and conservatives in some ways, and not in other ways. The end
Just saw matrix again for the first time in years, it really was ahead of its time.
Same here. It's a documentary. It has to be.
Or perhaps like 1984, a warning
Trump needs to get a Tesla version of The Beast to drive all over California in.
I love big oil. It employs thousands of my fellow Texans.
If Trump says he is welcome, I trust his decision. So far Trump has not disappointed me with his decisions.
Even the guy making electric cars, the holy grail of the islamoleftists' environment corps, is on the Trump train now.
Hi everyone - can someone tell me who created this video? I know it was on TD before and removed. Thanks! Lots of love to the Pedes here! https://mobile.twitter.com/GOPPollAnalyst/status/1262077700350631937
I wouldn't put too much stock into this as far as the whole movement goes, but the tipping point for California to be more competitive (at least at the top: Gov., Sens.) could soon be on the horizon.
Elon talking shit and encouraging others to wake up is good and it hurts Newsom and the Dems in CA. Especially if he actually leaves that would be a red pill moment for a lot of people for sure and maybe even some in Silicon Valley.
If he goes to Austin, it isn't different there than tech valley. Dems run the whole place. A scar of blue in the middle of a sea of beautiful red.
I dont think he actually will move but if he does it will be as a punitive move to make a point.
He may disagree with us on some things, but he is an American at heart!
Elon is base now. He is welcomed.
Taken. We have the best movement don't we folks?
Seems to be a lot of division shills and negative Nancys on site again.....
Elon is redpilled like that rose š¹
KEK
And we show you how deep this rabbit hole goes...
Where's the link?
Is this real?
When democrats tell people who don't share TDS to fuck off, there'll be someone on the other side waiting with open arms. Another one walks away
I love this timeline
This is a tough call for reddit to make now. Do they continue loving Elon or now hate him for siding with their own elected president of the United States?
There is a lot of compatibility between us and Andrew Yang supporters. Andrew Yang supporters are some of the most calm-headed and solution oriented people I've ever had the pleasure to talk to. I'd love to see some come build a coalition with us!
Who?
Let's just print infinite monies! = solution-oriented. Okay then.
Yeah, Yang was the only Dem candidate that truly seems to love America. I donāt agree with his policies but heās the kind of guy that you could actually have a respectful debate with.
He also passes the āIād have a beer with themā politician test.
