    That’s the issue, Musk and all think they are the resistance. That’s why they say “take back America”. From the elites, ignoring that they are the rich elites.

      Perpetual victim mentality.

      Wait is this why we don’t have rich people building giant monuments and libraries and art galleries with their names prominently on them anymore? Because they actually think they’re the underclass??

      Because seriously some of the most fire art galleries I’ve been to are the ones that are paid for by the worst fucking exploitative billionaires you’ll ever read about. Shout out to the Guggenheim, btw

        I mean damn if Rockefeller plaza isn’t nice.

        But for sure everyone feels like the victim all the time now regardless of how well off you are. Maybe we are growing immune to shame? I dunno but I miss people like Hershey building a free theater and a nice garden because his employees would strike.

        Pretty much, they wanna be the goodies instead of the baddies, but they don’t wanna change anything, so they’ll just be the baddies while pretending otherwise

      Pretty sure Stephanie was saying the people still using Twitter love to think they’d join the resistance, but won’t even stop using Twitter. Not that Elon thinks he’s the resistance.

        Yes. And what I’m saying is that Elon and the people still using Twitter think they are the resistance. I’m saying they won’t leave Twitter because they think they are the resistance.

          None of the queer people I know think using Shitter is a good thing. It’s just that the ones still on Shitter don’t care enough about fighting fascism.
