Elon Musk’s America PAC has dropped $100 million to support the GOP in critical races that could control the future of the Senate. It includes TV commercials, digital ads, and a social media blitz across platforms Musk owns and platforms he doesn’t. The eleventh-hour push is a brazen attempt to stoke the anti-trans moral panic and turn equal rights for transgender people into a make-or-break…

Only hatred can unite America, but what will happen when they run out of targets?

    But they weren't coming for me before....

    Seriously how can people see anything but the worst outcome? Oh cause education was defunded and they were not taught critical thinking. It's a straight line to that inevitably.

    Whenever you see someone driving a Tesla you're seeing someone who's giving a Nazi money.

    When your platform consists of killing the poor and widening the income gap, I guess you need something to sell to fascists who need someone to blame.

    Cool, so I guess the tradeoff is: we won't have to suffer under an agenda of "trans for everyone" and "men in women's sports" and obviously those were really real problems everyone was dealing with. 🙄

    In exchange for that, we have coverup for pedo rings, endless Middle East wars, donnie self-dealing to the tune of billions, ICE run amok, unaffordable health care, kids dying from measles and other preventable diseases, a food supply we cannot trust, an AI data center in everyone's backyard, unaffordable fuel, runaway inflation, a future run by oligarchs who want you all jobless and replaced by AI, etc...

    But thank god that I don't have to put up with men in women's sports!!!111

    Hey, you left out the part where they progressively automate away the human workforce, and use AI killbots to mass murder the unemployed until they reach a sustainable population of slaves they can use to rape, hunt for sport, etc.

    And focusing on someone else's life decisions will surely solve all the issues people have in their own lives.... not.

    Imagine being so filthy disgustingly rich, and what you decide to choose with your money is... that. Pathetic.

    ikr? Like given infinite money I'd actually really enjoy seeing how much solar I can distribute and running design contests for the most effective housing that still provides access to green space (and then building it). I bet with some help I could design some really awesome parks.
