Hugin , in Elon Musk keeps spreading a very specific kind of racism.

Rich white guys should be in charge isn’t exactly new or unusual as far a racism goes.

BigMacHole , in Texas GOP Invents Corporate Courts Ready to Do Industry's Bidding

Republicans allowing Corporations who Notoriously Abuse and KILL their Workers (including Child Workers) have a Separate and Bought Court System is EXACTLY why DEMOCRATS are the Deep State!

havocpants , in Elon Musk Deletes Tweet Promoting Tucker Carlson’s Interview With Hitler-Loving ‘Historian’

Is Elon playing some clever 5D chess that I don’t understand? Why is he doing things like this, how is it benefiting him? Has he lost his fucking mind?

mosiacmango ,

Hes a shitty racist that is extremely high at all times.

Imagine your meth’ed out rural cousins, but 200 million people/bots follow them on twitter for some reason.

ameancow ,

He’s a 4-chan troll that gained enough wealth from his parents that he can now actually believe and preach the things he used to read on those forums and not only barely see consequence, but actually ignite passions and movements in the world’s most ignorant and mentally challenged chuds.

We have to stop wondering what his “plans” are because he has none, he is just a stupid man, like so many others, and yet commands legions of devoted followers because our species is fucking stupid.

stoly ,

I enjoyed this comment.

DragonTypeWyvern ,

He’s just a Nazi with a shitposting addiction and he fired his PR team so they can’t hide it anymore.

chetradley ,

He’s pandering to his right wing sycophants and pushing the boundaries of free speech on his platform so that when he inevitably faces consequences, he can immediately play the victim and say “see, I told you this is what the left would do!”

Normally I’d say don’t give him the attention, but he’s a Nazi sympathizer, and those motherfuckers deserve condemnation.

Bob_Robertson_IX ,

He really went off the deep end when Grimes dumped him. I’m not saying he didn’t have issues before, but his compete public persona changed when their relationship ended. When his relationship with Amber Herd ended her did an interview with Rolling Stone where he was crying and talking about how life just isn’t worth doing anything of you aren’t in love. I think he really thought that with Grimes he found his true soulmate. My guess is that once she became a mother she realized that he isn’t someone she wants raising her children and she broke his heart and he’s gone full incel now.

One day she will be free of him and she’s going to tell her story. I can’t wait to hear it.

WoahWoah ,

Remember those creepy, desperate Tweets from Grimes to Musk about seeing the kids or whatever? God. Imagine literally the richest person in the world is also your incel ex.

Nope!

Sounds awful though.

NotMyOldRedditName ,

I don’t know if it coincides with grimes, but his daughter disowning him and him blaming the woke school system for turning her against him is also where the anti work crusade started, which don’t ya know, brings you down the far right rabbit hole into psycho land.

Edit: whatever his views were before this event, that was a defining moment where he had to make a real choice, and he made the wrong one.

captainlezbian ,

He faced a lot of abandonment in a short time period and instead of self reflecting lashed out. And when an angry white man lashes out against other people for self preserving, there’s a chunk of the internet there to help guide him away from ever getting better

The trust fund baby concubine of a billionaire isn’t the hero of the story.

SmilingSolaris ,

Who the fuck said it was about being a hero? You ain’t gotta think she’s had the hard proletariat steel worker rice farmer barista life to have a shred of empathy for this particular situation. Your empathy isn’t a finite resource, only to be delt out on a truly justified occasion after considering the class of the people involved. Rich or poor, having a child with elon musk probably sucks so much ass. Can’t we just agree on that rather than punching air? Or did you walk up hill both ways to your job at the business factory too many times to care about the humanity of someone with one too many zeros in their bank.

I say this as an eat the rich, burn them down kinda motherfucker. Don’t lose your humanity.

Grandwolf319 ,

Everyone replying to you is saying he is essentially a troll but imo it’s him affirming a narrative that benefits him.

He was born rich and then became a billionaire (and still would claim being self made). He truly believes some people are born better. That’s actually a core tenant of conservative ideology and the justification for social hierarchy that they support.

When you believe some people are born better, and that the market decides who has what it takes, then minorities over represented in poverty must mean that some races are born better/worse.

It’s basically social Darwinism and it benefits him if people believe that rich and successful people are better and thereby should be rewarded with more power. That is the benefit, the racism just part of the package deal.

You’re in luck! I’ve just launched an anti-crime AI focused company, designed to keep kids safe! Our predictive model will identify high risk individuals and other undesirables. We can then remove them to a safe location where they can learn to be productive in our work and education programs!

You should buy some, then when he goes to sell, sue him and tie him up in the courts so he can’t sell until it becomes negitive $5 Shrute-bucks.

It's good to see the right wing also has people willing to throw away their votes over one issue. Maybe that helps balance things out a bit better.

For anyone wondering about Georgia’s gun control laws:

-No background checks

-No purchase permit laws

-K-12 teachers are allowed to carry

-No red flag laws

-No bans on high capacity magazines

-No secured gun storage required

-Open carry / no concealed carry permit required

-No ghost gun regulations

-People with assault or violent misdemeanors can carry guns

-Colleges and universities must allow guns on campus

-Minors can possess rifles and shotguns

But Brian Kemp is urging all Georgians to pray for the safety of those in the classroom!!

massive_bereavement ,

Now guess from where were bought most guns used in violent crimes in other states: https://www.nbcchicago.com/news/national-international/chicago-gun-trace-report-2017/27140/

WoahWoah ,

Now this is the kind of errant pedantry up with which I shall not put!

Cadeillac ,
@Cadeillac@lemmy.world avatar

So you’re telling me the good guys with guns prevented the entire thing right?

callouscomic ,

Red flag laws will open floodgates of abuse to accuse anyone of being unstable based merely on perceptions. Not sure I trust those. But in general you made a great list.

BassTurd ,

If it means less guns, I personally dgaf.

capital_sniff ,

In your view what red flag laws go too far?

jordanlund ,
@jordanlund@lemmy.world avatar

You have to be 18 to buy a gun and the shooter is 14 so he didn’t get the gun legally.

He was also investigated at 13:

I thoroughly despise living in Georgia. There are so many gun-fetishist, uneducated, redneck morons who live near me that I have, at times, felt like I was literally suffocating.

The moment I can move, I will get the hell out of this hell-hole of a state. The only good thing you can even say about it is that it’s not as bad as Florida — where there are just as many idiots, but also sweat running down cracks you didn’t know you had.

And having a kid in school, this is one of my worst fears as a parent. The sheer helplessness those parents must feel right now, it’s both mind-boggling and maddening.

Fuck Georgia. Fuck the USA. Fuck the piece of shits who value their guns over children. And fuck anyone who believes that the cost of their own freedom is watching as children are murdered in the classroom.

I’m willing to bet this 13 year old didn’t walk into a gun store and make a purchase. I see this as a failure by the parents for being negligent with their firearm(s). Maybe one of those laws would have prevented them from making a purchase though.

So long gone publishers works will never be archived for public use.

Idiotic…

chiliedogg ,

People don’t see to understand what happened here.

The Open Library was a great tool designed specifically to let anyone access books without violating copyright. It was an elegant solution that allowed ohysical books that weren’t being used to be checked out digitally, and digital licenses to be loaned out from partner libraries, but kept track of the licenses so that it kept the 1:book/person limit.

During Covid, they intentionally disabled the systems that prevented multiple concurrent copies of a single license being used, and the publishers went along with it because national emergency, and because physical libraries were closed, so there were millions of unused books that were unavailable.

After the lockdown ended, the publishers asked the Internet Archive to return to the old system, and they refused to do it until they were sued.

They intentionally disabled the protections that kept everything legal, and when asked to stop doing illegal shit they refused. It’s absolutely their own fault.
