.ra files taught me why proprietary is a bad word.

Why does the duck have parsley in its mouth? Are they going to eat it later?

Plus it’s not the government making this claim, but an “alt-right influencer”. Their audience isn’t going to fact-check anything they agree with anyway, so why not just lie?

I’m primarily going to hold you to this statement:

We have seen the crowd turn against someone, hating someone, many times. It always blows over. Thats why we dont talk about what happened a year ago anymore.

The bad will generated in the past few months won’t blow over for Musk. This also means that, for example, if Tesla gets rid of Musk in the year to come, then their value in a year doesn’t really mean much to this argument. :) See you in March 2026.

Oh, of course…but why the car? Because there’s a car bomb, IRA-style?

I’d love to understand this joke, could someone explain?

I don’t know about that – a kind-hearted and gentle idiot would have a hard time, I think

As I said in a different thread recently, the only issue is that the name “vaccine” has been tainted in the minds of idiots. Rebrand it as “natural immune system therapy” or something, and market it as something the establishment is firmly against, and they’d be lining up to get it.

None of these people understand what vaccines actually do.

I’m convinced the best solution to this problem would be to rename vaccines to something completely different and brand it as a natural remedy that the establishment is fiercely against. “A natural therapy that strengthens and heals your immune system. Ancient asian medicine rediscovered. Witches were burned at the stake in mediaeval Europe for treating people with it.”

I mean, I agree with you, but this is also a huge problem. This is why you have someone who pretended to be a successful businessman on TV as a president now. I really miss the days when boring but competent people could run a country.

I assume your question was rhetorical, but these people have no fixed principles or commitment to truth. They don’t want free trade for everyone, just no regulations for them.

A weird little detail in all this madness is that “Doge” as in an italian renaissance leader is related to the word “Duce” so I guess “Il Doge” would fit Muskolini perfectly?

Yes, but they’re great for propaganda. This administration can both place themselves in power and be anti-establishment at the same time.
