This is how you deal with misbehaving children. Define a boundary (don’t do X), establish consequences (If you do X, I will do Y), and then follow through consistently, exactly as you described.

Ideally you don’t have to treat world leaders like they’re children, but these are the times we find ourselves in.

Fuck, if that were true we’d have just gotten done with 8 years of President Sanders 😥

There’s no way that you can license an online comment like that.

I expect nothing less from Satan’s maggoty cum fart.

Not that there’s much reason to be charitable towards Musk, but if you’re in the mood:

Even if you don’t think so, they’ve essentially been grabbing handfuls of cables and yanking then out, no guarantees they even know HOW to restore everything how it was.

This is more like Stalin’s Great Purge

FYI because the actual reasons for this feud are under-reported:

1. Colombia has been accepting deported immigrants for years without complaint. They were being sent by charter or commercial aircraft, and the Colombia government was notified ahead of time that they were coming.

2. Trump sent a group of deportees on a military aircraft

3. Trump did not notify Colombia that this aircraft was coming, and as such tried to lands a military aircraft in a sovereign state with no warning

4. Colombia said fuck that, the plane eventually landed in Honduras, and Colombia sent another plane to pick the people up from there.

5. Colombia said “what the fuck dude” and Trump the a temper tantrum

6. Side note, every single one of those deportees was arrested by the Biden admin, so it’s not like this is even Trump delivering on his campaign promises. He’s just doing a worse job at what Biden was already doing.

And so was Jan6. And here we are.

The troubled teen industry is a fucked up place.

Elan.school is a great story of one of those awful places.
