Idiocracy 2024

Trump pulls the US out of the WHO.
Trump ends birthright citizenship with an executive order (you can't do that to Constitutional amendments)

This is going to be a shitshow

Elon Musk's and X's Role in 2024 Election Interference

The confessions of a concerned bird.
theconcernedbird.substack.com theconcernedbird.substack.com

As a former X (formerly Twitter) employee on an H1B visa, I can't reveal my identity without risking everything, but I can't stay silent any longer about what I saw and was made to do.

When Elon Musk took over, everything changed. What started as a social media company became something much darker. I was part of a team that was directly ordered to manipulate Twitter's systems to influence the 2024 US presidential election. It wasn't subtle, and it wasn't ethical.

Make sure everyone refers to him as President Musk* and give him all the credit for winning the election.

* yes, I know there is a puppet master up his butt; a human centipede broligarchy, if you will.

Good. Nip the republican useless fishing trips in the bud before they can waste the time they should be spending actually governing the country.

Fauci's $15,000,000 per year security detail and drivers paid by the government now canceled. So Trump is already saving resources.

I have never seen a politician execute as rapidly as the pace since Nov 6th. And he actually is delivering on pre-election promises, which I didn't expect TBH.

I had initially planned a reasoned response to this until I realized I was spending time I'd never get back.

That’s a drop in the bucket in terms of how much the US government spends. It’s a rounding error. It’s not saving resources. It’s pettiness.

You understand what the implication here is right? This has absolutely nothing to do with cost savings.

Honestly I know I’m completely wasting my time typing this.

Elon has already eliminated $420,000,000 off the federal budget during the first week.

Over the past 20 years, he took a government agency and reduced the costs by 90 to 95%. Meaning every $100 spent before by NASA, now he is able to accomplish with about $5 with SpaceX. SpaceX in its short history has put more objects into orbit than US, USSR/Russia, China, India, France combined!

I hope he can shrink federal spending by 20% to 30% to make US more stable and reduce taxes.

And maybe Canada can learn from that too. Carbon Tax, Capital Gains to 66.7% and Toronto City Tax increase is the true Idiocracy.
