Everyone knows that armies are just a loose collection of undisciplined psychopaths that are basically left to their own devices.

People who hire hitmen aren't murderers. The hitmen are.

"I didnt kill anyone, i was just giving the orders"

[–] [email protected] 27 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

More right wing “guns don’t kill people” bullshit logic.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 hour ago

Guns don’t….rappers do. I saw it on a documentary on BBC2.

"the gun helps."

The gun is “just following orders.”

I read this as a call to action for the people Musk/Trump are ordering around. If everyone just said "no, I won't to do what you tell me" then we might avoid the collapse of the government/economy/country.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 hour ago

I think the person who originally posted it may have had that intent. I don't know anything about them. But I'm skeptical that Musk's retweet was for the same intent. 😀

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 hour ago

You tell them no, you get replaced with a yes man. That’s been the pattern.

[–] [email protected] 39 points 6 hours ago (2 children)

This adds to an ever-growing list of things.

  • He created a safe space for Nazis on his platform

  • He amplified pro-Nazi content on his platform

  • He offered support for Germany's far-right AfD party, which uses Nazi symbolism in its posters.

  • He did not one, but two Nazi salutes during Trump's inauguration.

  • He's endorsed established antisemetic conspiracy theories such as the "great replacement" conspiracy theory.

  • After receiving backlash for the two Nazi salutes that he did at Trump's inauguration, instead of apologizing, he posted Nazi puns.

All the gaslighting from his supporters with "you can't read his mind" "he's autistic" and "it was a Roman salute/my heart goes out to you" is quite frankly an insult to people's intelligence.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

Three salutes. Two to the podium, he then turned and did 1 more to the people behind and above him.

Most video only showed the first 2

[–] [email protected] 2 points 15 minutes ago

And the public (selected as partisan people) immediately cheered, without any confusion or protest.

People don't show that enough. The public reaction is more important than the original gesture.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 hour ago

If he just made a mistake with the salute, surely he'd apologize and say it wasn't intended, right? Right??

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 hours ago

Musk, Zuckerberg, and CEOs don't make social value. The workers do.

[–] [email protected] 71 points 7 hours ago (2 children)

Well, if he wants to follow that logic: Tesla’s CEO didn’t make billions of dollars, his workers did.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 5 hours ago

Yea, the fact that any CEO would take a stance like this just shines on his hypocrisy. If leadership bears no responsibility, they also shouldn't be taking home any of a company's profit.

Reposted by Musk Jesus fucking Christ.

ADL? Hello? You going to talk about this? No?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 6 hours ago

Musk = POS Nazi.

[–] [email protected] 45 points 10 hours ago (2 children)

“Workers” is (intentionally) obtuse.

They were paramilitary — private militant groups elevated to public status based on their allegiance, and plugged into the existing military apparatuses.

So like J6ers on the low end, or Blackwater on the high end.

Speaking of Blackwater, what is “Echo Papa” up to these days?

Prince had struck up a working relationship with El Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele, which not everyone at the meeting knew. … Prince eventually excused himself from the group, telling those gathered that he planned to pitch the detention idea directly to Bukele.

Not only would El Salvador accept and jail potentially hundreds of thousands of violent undocumented immigrants currently in the US, it would also take in “dangerous American criminals in custody in our country, including those of US citizenship and legal residents.”

Jesus Christ.

The holocaust had civilian participants as well. The Nazis recruited normal people to form a police force in the occupied territories, and then told them to execute "these jews over there" and they did. There was heavy alcohol abuse among these people, but there was no resistance even though there was no indication there would be punishement if orders were disobeyed

[–] [email protected] 1 points 14 minutes ago

to form a police force in the occupied territories

So, not civilians then.

Ahh, so he actually admit he achieve nothing and don't deserve the billions he own, his worker did.

Which one is it, melon husk?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

This does NOT belong in the sub.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 hour ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

Does that list include the same political posts that have infested damn near every other sub in existence? I go to shitpost subs for silliness, not more of the same crap we get everywhere.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago) (1 children)

I think you'll need to apply to be a mod of the sub so you can change the rules and sidebar then.

Anything and everything goes.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 hour ago

Fair enough. People are fatigued by the constant barrage of political posts, I just figured there were rules against this sort of thing. I'm new to Lemmy and still figuring out how to even view the rules in the voyager app.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 7 hours ago

MAGA come get yo boy, he's d̶r̶u̶n̶k̶ in a K hole and still out there doing Nazi shit and defending Hitler....

[–] [email protected] 71 points 12 hours ago (3 children)

Why the fuck is this fascist posting under the black flag? Does he consider himself an anarchist?

[–] [email protected] 14 points 9 hours ago

Symbolic appropriation is the modus operandi of fascism. That's why the swastika, a former symbol of peace, is now one of the most widely known symbols of hate on the planet.

[–] [email protected] 36 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

”Dark gothic maga" is trying to take it over I guess

[–] [email protected] 14 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Oh no, is that a real thing?

[–] [email protected] 18 points 10 hours ago

it's what elon musk is calling anarchocapitalism

[–] [email protected] 15 points 11 hours ago

At this point I don't think he considers himself anything other than entitled to put US and the world in his pocket =))

[–] [email protected] 14 points 9 hours ago

Hitler didn't murder Tesla. Elon did.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 11 hours ago (3 children)

can't tell if it's a tankie take or a fascist take... not that any option makes it less terrible

[–] [email protected] 31 points 11 hours ago

It’s a ketamine take.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 10 hours ago

It's an authoritarian take

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 hours ago* (last edited 4 hours ago) (1 children)

"guys is it tankie to compare communists with hitler?"

[–] [email protected] -1 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

I've seen tankies defending trump so I'll believe anything

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 hours ago

if your definition of "tankie" includes conservatives, sure.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 8 hours ago

I suppose the military and police are public sector workers, but doesn't that imply that he should be focusing on dismantling the defense department and like FBI, DHS, etc?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

"I didn't kill them, my gun did."

Same logic

[–] [email protected] 7 points 9 hours ago* (last edited 9 hours ago)

Only difference being a gun can't say no. The complicity of the grunt who carries out the order gives them a portion of the responsibility. That's certainly no absolution to Melon, though.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 11 hours ago

Agreed. I blame those who voted them into power and I blame those who haven't taken out the garbage, by any means necessary.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 hours ago

So the 4D chess move is to fire all the public sector workers so there's no one to do his nazi deeds. Gotcha.
