The fascinating thing to me about Musk is the way he seems to genuinely believe his own bullshit in a way other far-right grifters don't. Despite constantly hanging around on the site he owned, feels like he was legit surprised to learn its greatest influencers are majority foreign bad actors?
It’s hilarious and revelatory that a bunch of giant MAGA/America First X accounts are actually based in Eastern Europe and Nigeria.
Top MAGA Influencers Accidentally Unmasked as Foreign Actors
A new feature on Elon Musk’s X has given deeper insight into the online “America First” movement.

Some special ed teachers' brains are really busted from having stewed in a system of compliance and (white lady) saviorism for so long. Just saw one woman talking about how she was going to make her own (disabled) child earn lunch. Like, no ma'am you are not doing a "good job"; go feed your child.

So weird to me how so many folks try to make the case that because something is a "foundational value" it should be inherently preserved. Like, yes, it's foundational but the value is like, "some people are less people than other people," soooo, we can let that one go, my guys.
