Love economics and sailing. Probably love the economics of sailing as well. If I was capable of shutting up I would have done so already

“The communications backbone for an entire country’s military has gone down and nobody knows who is responsible” Yeah we’re gonna need to send people to prison and start nationalizing things.

Again: Why does Musk have operational control over any *military grade* version of anything. That’s not how DOD contracts work.

Elon Musk is too big to trust. A THREAD.

1. The Wall Street Journal and CBS News confirmed that Elon Musk was involved in the decision to stall out Starshield, the military version of Starlink, when Ukraine needed it most. www.cbsnews.com/news/elon-mu...

Lots of discussion about Elon Musk and corruption/undue influence on here lately. What I still want to know about it is the resignation of FAA Administrator Michael Whitaker over pressure from Musk and whatever happened with the 2023 investigations and subsequent fines into Space X.

Amy Acton’s mother sided with her stepdad after Acton alleged he raped her when she was 9-12 years old. Vivek Ramaswamy exploited that trauma for political gain. Ghoulish beyond comprehension. I hope she kicks his ass on Election Day. www.dispatch.com/story/news/p...

Wow. Vivek Ramaswamy admits he was responsible for the despicable attack ad featuring Amy Acton’s estranged mother.

🚨 BREAKING: Elon Musk personally proposed slowing down Ukraine’s Starlink access, and Trump agreed, The Telegraph reports, citing four sources. Musk reportedly later feared backlash from European customers and publicly denied responsibility, blaming the White House instead.

(1) This is vile racism & hatred from Trump (2) Important context that Trump tried to start a race war with his initial paramilitary invasion of Minneapolis, but was stunned to see (white native) neighbors defending their (non-white immigrant) neighbors (inconceivable to a person powered by hatred).

Trump tries to start a race war: "The once Great State of Minnesota is being taken over by Somali Immigrants ... The Somalians should not be allowed to get away with what they are doing. They view you as weak and stupid people. Fight back Minnesota, fight back!"

Musk advocating for Quebec separatism then following it up by saying Alberta & Saskatchewan should leave too gives away this is just about dissolving Canada for being lib, but I'm glad he's too dumb to realize it undermines separatists' chances by further associating them with right-wing Americanism

Le Québec devrait devenir indépendant et se séparer du Canada, selon Elon Musk. Dans une publication sur X, le patron de Tesla et de SpaceX a aussi dit que l’Alberta et la Saskatchewan devraient faire de même.
