Elon Musk Stuff

[HornHuskerDad]

Somehow "Government" and "efficiency" don't seem to go together.

 

[nashhorn]

Maybe musk can make it so, he understands the term layoff. Yeah I know that is foreign to govt but hey, it’s a new day coming (for good or bad).

 

[Mr. Deez]

Not sure how much everyone is following what's happening in Brazil, but there is a full blown war on free speech.

If we had actual leadership at the top we could put an end to this.

Here in the USA we could.

The scary thing is how much our government in involved in this.

That is scary. How is our gov't involved with Brazil 's gov't and their shut down of free speech?

 

[Monahorns]

I read on Twitter that the US government set up mail in voting stations to get Lula elected and threatened Bolsanaro if he said too much. I know most will not agree but I think the US federal government is a Trotskyite Communist regime and has been for some time.

It's one reason we get along so well with Israel...

 

[Horn6721]

Nothing would surprise me but who posted it on X? Is there a reliable source?

I'm sure it is. Brazil, the UK, and the EU are trying to do what American progressives would like to do in the US. Twitter was a cesspool of left wing advocacy and dutifully censored or at least punished dissenters. It engages them that Musk ruined it for them. They view it the same way the Soviets would have viewed Ayn Rand somehow gaining control of Pravda.

Our current regime embraces suppression of speech.

 

[Horn6721]

The current regime absolutely tries to repress free speech and individual rights.
While it wouldn't surprise me it would interfere in Brazil I just would like a credible source reporting.
We have seen the effects of false reporting.

 

[Mr. Deez]

Speak of what our government would do . . .

 

[Vol Horn 4 Life]

Speak of what our government would do . . .

Half of America including our government believe in censorship in the name of "dangerous speech" or "misinformation". They don't believe in free speech unless it's their speech.

Yep. Even if our law protect free speech, our culture doesn't. And if it doesn't, it's only a matter of time before our laws stop protecting our as well.

 

[Mr. Deez]

Lol. I wish Salma thought this way. And I don't care how old she is. She's still a 10. And Farrah Fawcett isn't even close.
