  • Did you not read all of my response.

    Consistency is required when looking at the problems we have.

    This is happenong to Musk, but the same happens to people on the left.

    Smears happen without proof, just for going against the status quo.

    This seems to be a smear for not siding with Israel, and calling for peace.

    Your response does not help make your point, it does the opposite.

    I am not sure what you are trying to get across.

    Reminds me of Trump derangement syndrome.

    Again, we have enough to bash Musk as is, no need to lie or make up things.



  • This is a win for the status quo bloods and crips.

    To me, there is a lot to bash Musk on, but the twitter files confirmed and should have enlightened many of the problems we currently have with politicians/media/corporations being in bed with each other.

    This seems similar to the Russiagate stories pushed by legacy media.

    Smearing opposition of the status quo, then once the population believes the lies, the truth starts to comes out years later by MSM journalists.

    I make mistakes and I am willing to learn, so please if anyone can articulate and explain in detail?

    Why all the baseless hate against Musk, while we already know enough about how he treats his workers to be against him. No need to be hostile or to lie when talking about him.

Through their many literary works where camaraderie remains a fundamental theme.
