    If you expect freedom of speech and discourse on Twitter/x, you’re sadly mistaken. You might as well start wearing a MAGA hat too.

    Fuck Elon Musk!

    JD Vance sought to emulate the authoritarian tactics of Hitler’s Gestapo, establishing a paramilitary-style security force that was distinct from the professional duties of the Secret Service. Such actions were met with widespread disdain, as evidenced by the boos he received at the Olympics. In the current climate, American politicians would be wise to limit their overseas travel, as they are likely to encounter nothing but scorn and mistrust from the international community. In the span of a single year, the United States has gone from being a beacon of democracy that its allies could rely upon to a nation that is increasingly viewed as a fascist state—a disturbing transformation that has justifiably eroded global confidence in America’s leadership and stability.

    However, I do love the idea that some staffer had to call the copyright office and had to file an emergency copyright claim on booing Vance.

    I can see why people can like Trump. It’s sad but I get it. But Vance! He has zero charisma and is a real sleazy bag. He has nothing for himself.
