        Honestly I think there are at least 4 really REALLY good arguments for nationalizing spaceX. Fuckwit Musk is a national security risk.

        Literally, and I’ve seen people glorifying that Elon’s Xitter is a ‘free speech’ platform. It’s not even the closest thing to that. It’s a proprietary application where Musk can control whatever he wants and push any kind of narrative that he wants.

        I want to say yes, but to be honest Putin doesn’t even know how to turn on computer and he never uses internet.

    I kind of understand Reddit, but why do people hang in there with Twatter when there are currently three grown ass alternatives?

    I used to joke that Republicans were Russian sycophants, bought and paid for by Putin himself to destroy America. But it’s not actually, and maybe never was, a joke.

    Yeesh

      No they just take trips to Moscow for fun! And that Russian agent that lied about Hunter Biden was totally legitimate!

    I’m shocked how many people are still defending a xenophobic, right wing, white nationalist because he opposed Putin.
