    It’s been obvious for a while but people all over have no problem giving him money to fund Nazi causes. I live in a sold blue state and see at least a couple cyber trucks whenever I drive somewhere. I’d estimate 1 out of every 8 cars around here are a Tesla. Like WTF people… If you’re a giant MAGA supporter I get it, but if you’re a Democrat then you’re sending the wrong message.

      Yep. The minute I learned who he was, my plans to buy anything from that douche were nixed. No way I’m driving around with a vehicle that broadcasts a message like that. Might as well slap one of those dumb red hats on my head, but in this case, people know that I’ve given money to a warped cause.

    Elon is a drug-abuser, pervert and white nationalist who should not have this much say in our government. Or anything else for that matter.

    Stephen Miller almost exclusively toils in weird Nazi-like shit, so I’m assuming this money went to arm white nationalist malitias or some crazy Q-anon fuckery.

        It’s pretty pathetic how much the NYT shills for conservatives. They were big cheerleaders for the 2003 Iraq War. Conservatives whine about liberal media even though it doesn’t exist.

          It does. Depending upon how you use the term. If you use it in modern slang vernacular. Then no. There is no liberal media. But if you use the term as it’s historically been used. Nearly all media including conservative media are liberal media. Where liberal means economic liberalism / capitalism. Their problem with the liberal media is. The liberal media does whatever sells. It will happily sell the truth or a lie. But only whichever one sells most. And thus authoritarians cannot count on it to constantly push their lies and rhetoric.

    I remember getting screamed at by his fanbois when I tried to explain that he was actually an engineer, and was a shitty lying piece of filth.

    Then he fired his PR team and it all came out.

      I thought his fanbois are trying to convince everyone that he is an engineer? They took issue with this? What do they claim he is then?
