This is why I still think that the internet, not the issues, are the root cause of this culture war. People (including journalists…who are people) imagine the loudest, angriest positions as default positions because those are the ones that get eyeballs in an ultra-competitive attention economy.
“Supporters of inclusion view those who hesitate or have questions as bigots.” that’s not fucking true. we keep explaining how transition and athletics works BECAUSE we believe people who don’t know will mostly come around once they do know! if we thought they were all bigots we wouldn’t try!!
NYT actually published this sentence, which asks us to take baseless moral panic bullshit seriously as a reasonable position.
Supporters of the Holocaust considered Jews to be subhuman saboteurs of German society, too. So fucking what??

Anyone want to bet that no one looks at the email responses that Musk asked for ?
It requires too much manpower and organization. Even w/AI
He will hold them in the event he has an interaction with someone.
If so, he can look up their response or lack of, and use it as cause for action.

DOGE recommended firing workers at:
-FDA, which oversees Neuralink
-FAA, which oversees SpaceX
-USAID, which probed Starlink
-CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X.
"Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

“If [Soulja Boy] had a career he could get cancelled for this type of slander. Luckily he ain’t been relevant since 2007.”

So the Dems are aligned in using the Hegspeth allegations to oppose him. Dumb.
The man is not qualified for the job. That is all that matters. He has never managed more than 100 people. He won't be the actual one running DOD because he has no clue how.
And this is what the Dems focus on ?

You aren't an artist if you put words into a computer program and post the resulting output as if you did something. That's not what art is. You have no craft. You've done no work. You've engaged no creativity. You're nothing. Tagging that shit as art of any kind is just lying.
