The issue is, while the haters do seem like they are the standard outrage machine, I dont think people who are not into politics realize how batshit insane the Republicans side has gotten, which Musk is solidly a part of.

We are used to living this relatively cushy life, where we think that everyone is entitled to the political opinion, and we seem to take it for granted like its never going to change. But in reality, if Trump wins, it may very well be the end of American democratic experiment, and set us on the path towards a much lower standard of life. If EU and other markets start losing faith in US economy because we have a dictator in power, you better believe you are going to feel that, cause nobody will give a shit about the tech sector.

Like, its REALLY fucking bad right now with how close the polls are, and its scary that many peoplendont realize this fact.

So I dont think that at this point and time, its wise to chalk up all the hate rhetoric as just online outrage. People should be outraged. Vote blue downballot in November, and maybe once MAGA movement dies, we can go back to some form of normalicy.

I almost wonder if the parent is asking in good faith, like, “oh thanks, I didn’t notice…” ?

Women are dying because of anti-abortion positions being espoused by these republicans.

People aren't just outraged. Millions are terrified.

There's a 50% chance come November 9th that my girlfriend and I have to have a very serious discussion about how we will protect her rights and literal safety, that we have to make serious sacrifices to go somewhere safer, including leaving family.

I have friends that would have to go into literal hiding, living fake lives to not get systemically harmed and targeted.

Project 2025 damn near calls for my execution, and the execution of people I love, for things that no well adjusted people consider wrong.

America had a blatant and clear taste for actual full blown Nazism in the early 1900s, and people don't seem to realize that it was never rooted out, just made quiet for a few decades. We LOVE eugenics.
