The more people hear about Elon buying elections, the less they want to vote for those candidates.
Honestly, Musk’s need for attention is a significant weakness Democrats ought to exploit. If Musk were smart, he’d be hiding his giving the way other billionaires do. But that’s not him. He’s gotta be in our faces all the fucking time. Dems should make this the face of the opposition.

Tech fascism is becoming impossible to ignore. It's a key mechanism of the climate crisis, the economic crisis, and the democratic crisis. Use your voice to raise the alarm and fight back. The establishment can ignore some of us. It cannot ignore all of us. 🎁🔗 www.nytimes.com/2026/09/12/m...

The most difficult part to navigating trumpism is the constant moving of goal posts. Policy failure? The art of the deal. Rising prices? Patriotism. Impending loss? Calls to cheat. Conditional $5k checks admidst rising national debt? The hottest economy. But it is only difficult because it's a cult.
MAGAs hear Trump says they'll get a $5000 check and they believe it. And even if they know it is a lie, they'd rather take a chance because government hasn't ever done that for them before... well except those covid checks, so it is worth a shot... because fascism is better than "woke democracy" lol
As a leftist, as a progressive, Clinton was not my ideal candidate. But listening to her here so clearly juxtaposes leadership styles between what we have that I'd vote for her again ib 2028. Bcz we have set ourselves back so far, we need a reset button. We need to start from a point of sanity
Hillary Clinton: "Xi is thinking, 'They they can't defend anybody anymore bc they don't have capacity. Maybe we can coerce Taiwan into giving up bc there's not going to be support.' If you look at the world map, it's not favorable to the US largely bc of wrongheaded decisions by this administration"
