Elon just started an AI start-up (can anyone guess the name?), and his obtrusion into government data is to train the AI of his new company.
- Without checking I'm sure it's xAI.
  
  I swear that guy is stuck in the 90s with his obsession with the letter "X". Probably because it still taboo to officially call something "SS" in spite of him doing Nazi salute.
- His ~~offer~~ threat to buy openAI does seem like a pretty glaring tell in my opinion. (along with that server which could act as it's gateway to the data)

Turns out even republicans are starting to clue in. Good for them! (Wish they had paid attention a decade ago).
- No, they're not "cluing in." They aren't rejecting the regime's disastrous and evil goals; they're just squabbling for power within it.
- No. They aren't on our team. If they are trying to save themselves now they will be fucked by both sides.
- Republicans are so fucking stupid I do not believe they are cluing in
- Seriously yes finally to all of this.

"It doesn't matter until it affects me."
- Remember those that denied this long are not on our side. They should not be included in rebuilding. They should be the first line of cannon fodder. We were their pawns, and now they will be our pawns. They will have to prove themselves in civil war. If not, they can fod.
  
  Absolutely. They're only in this situation because their masters aren't hurting the right people. Nothing else has changed in their beliefs.

Musk is a terrible leader with bad ideas. As time goes on even his biggest supporters see his decisions as ineffective and myopic with a tendency to hurt the people that gave him the mandate to do so much damage. Elon Musk is unable to form a good idea and unable to do any work himself. He is a sponge soaking up what's around him and is such a sloppy mess of garbage juice that being in his orbit will leave a permanent stain on you.
I can't wait to see what he does to rush Boeing into finishing Air Force One.

Wait, THATS the picture he chose to have put up? The one with the weird tuft of hair sticking up in the back, where he looks like he's holding in a massive shit and has a series of tumor like lumps on his check?
I mean, fuck. If I were Elon rich I'd have Marvel's lead makeup artist on permanent retainer.
