Elon Musk Buys Twitter

[Mayhem]

so at what point do we find out like 50% of Tesla is just built on scams lol

Looks like a lot of people forgot about the Tesla data leak back in 23 that showed customers reported that their Tesla's basically tried to kill them.

And the other 50% is built on government subsidies.

Pardon?! Can I get a more expansive TLDR?

Thousands of customer complaints, some including their Tesla suddenly breaking or suddenly accelerating, and so on. Also apparently employees at Tesla shared videos from inside the cars. So basically everything you do inside a Tesla is maybe known by a lot of people working at Tesla, awesome.

Does DOGE stuff go here? I'm just gonna post it here...

A federal whistleblower just dropped one of the most disturbing cybersecurity disclosures I’ve ever read.

He's saying DOGE came in, data went out, and Russians started attempting logins with new valid DOGE passwords

Whole (Twitter, couldn't find another link at this moment in time) thread about it. Its... not great.

Can we brand DOGE employees and volunteers as traitors to the US yet?

I sure am glad President Elon fired everyone investigating him and the regulators inspecting his technology surely that's not a sign that his cars are pieces of shit death machines /s

Our new best ally Russia is being invaded by the brutal Ukrainians, it's only right we share information with them. It's not like they are leaking information to the filthy Europeans or worst the evil Canadians /s

I've been there for some time now, personally. Not sure how they can be seen as anything else.

Well, remember, I posted pretty much from the start of this administration that when DOGE infiltrated the Treasury Payment Systems that putting backdoors into those systems was one of their goals.

WIRED even had an article about it almost right from the get go.

https://www.wired.com/story/elon-mus...ayment-system/

This was 2 weeks after the inauguration. They used unsecured systems to access extremely secured systems, installed servers that sent data offsite where nobody knew where it was going to and the like.

Here is my post on Feb 1 saying this:

Oh, I am just conjecturing here. However, Elon is not known to do things "for the benefit of the good of society". He does things he will personally get something out of.

However, his cronies over at the OPM have actively demanded access to those systems. Which caused the highest-ranking treasury official to resign in protest.

So now Elon wants to get out of politics. Sorry it doesn't work that way bitch. You don't get to fuck with american agencies, fuck with people's social security, throw nazi salutes up and then think you can go apolitical because your networth is tanking.

the most sensitive, delicate, thin-skinned loser of all time roflmao

[Moralgy]

Guess he wasnt a big tuff man after all. You can only larp as thick skinned for a few months I guess.

He will still do it from the shadows he just doesn't want people to see how shitty of a human he is every day on the news tbh.

There's good reason why eminent computer security expert Bruce Schneier called DOGE, "a National cyberattack" back in February. But it was obvious that Musk was up to no good with DOGE from the start. If you want to audit a large bureaucracy, you don't want bright young men with short (if impressive) cybercriminal-adjacent resumes. You want experienced accountants, professional auditors, consultants with systems analyst expertise, and a retired executive or three.

Musk wanted his young hackers for the same reason militaries throughout history prefer young recruits: they're impressionable, motivated, don't ask too many questions, and can be persuaded to do just about anything.

If the United States had a functional government (as opposed to a crippled one repeatedly hijacked by its enemies) Musk and his acolytes would all be in solitary, undergoing sympathetic and friendly interrogation while the NSA goes through all their devices and communications. And when Musk's highly-paid lawyers demand his release, they'd be told "national security", and that while their client would certainly get all the due process to which he's entitled, he won't be going anywhere soon.

In reality, of course, the Trump administration is part and parcel of the same threat to the United States as Musk and company, and all that will happen to Musk is that he'll continue merrily looting to fund his increasingly crazed obsessions and personal wealth. His DOGE boys, like the foot soldiers they are, will be sacrificed whenever he finds that necessary and/or convenient.

Yep. He's a Nazi shitwad. He'll always be a Nazi shitwad. Once you've ripped the mask off, it never goes back on.

It takes a particularly small, insecure, pathetic person to fall into Nazism. So now everyone knows who you are, Elon. You lie about being good at video games, fer crissakes, and then throw hissy fits when you expose yourself because you're not even good enough to fake it on a livestream. Everyone knows you've never built a goddamned thing in your life; you've lucked into buying up-and-comer companies and stamping your name all over them before your interference either destroys the company or gets you forced away from operations, because every attempt you make to improve things fucks everything up, because you have no idea what you're doing. You sad, pathetic trust fun nepo baby.

Also; mentioning that insults are getting to you isn't gonna make us stop. You're telling us it's working. Idiot.

He just wants to pretend he is, Musk will never leave the government his little scummy Muskrats are in all the departments that's not counting all the data they have stolen and backdoors left in the system. Musk wants to skitter away to the shadows to avoid blowbacks.

I guess every Presidential election can be described as a hijack of the government by its enemies, if your preferred candidate loses. We call that a democracy, or a Democratic tradition, and I'm very glad my opposite Democrats decided to vote unanimously (in their loss) to certify it for the first time in 20 years. If you didn't want Musk to be hired as a special government employee, and start up DOGE, then your best option was to campaign harder to make sure his appointer went down to defeat. Failing that, the best choice is to recognize the mistakes that led to that campaign promise being fulfilled, and use that to recapture the House and Senate in 2026.

Then you can chuckle if there's some Republicans that say the House and Senate got taken over by the enemies of the government.

In reality, of course, the Trump administration is part and parcel of the same threat to the United States as Musk and company, and all that will happen to Musk is that he'll continue merrily looting to fund his increasingly crazed obsessions and personal wealth. His DOGE boys, like the foot soldiers they are, will be sacrificed whenever he finds that necessary and/or convenient.

They'll also be sacrificed after a 2028 election, where voters next get the chance to register disagreement with the government, similar to how voters expressed disagreement with the Biden government by tossing his VP out of government and into whatever leftwing nonprofit or university or think tank she ends up at. They might also receive blanket pardons after leaving, since Biden issued them for multiple members of his government, family, and family's business associates. Trump famously does not rise above his political enemies to hold himself to a higher standard.

But by all means publicize all these allegations to help your political side win in 2026, and then investigate all of them in the relevant House and Senate committees with subpoena power. Or maybe propose competent right-of-center professionals to help Trump fulfill his campaign promises, if any of them would ever be willing to work with Trump after 2016-2021. Attacking former staff after firing them or forcing their resignation has its downsides.

Please do try that line of explanation when we put y'all on Nuremberg trials.

It's always "dems fault" for Trump winning and not the dumbass MAGA voters for falling into the cult and thinking a Hollywood elite conman would solve the price of eggs.

Tesla is up as of now 10% after hours, the earnings were horrible but Elon has promised cheaper vehicles something he said he wasn't going to do before, cyber cabs, full self driving and I think the moon as well but meme stock go up we will see what happens on the open. It's insane people still believe this guy he has lied every quarter and failed to deliver.
