If Musk and Trump were actually as smart as they think they are they would have kept their mouths shut. There was obvious mismanagement by the state and local government to allow this to happen but that’s going to get buried in a pile of right wing conspiracy theories. The only people who are going to lose in this situation are LA residents.

I don’t care who it disproportionately helps, this is a major win for society as a whole. Now do student loans next

“It’s a starting point”. For you, maybe, but an ending point of this job.

Didn’t they generate $400billion in revenue? This is barely a rounding error.

He’s above the low low bar that Trudeau set.

Why does everybody have stomach problems in the US? I have them and thought I was a minority, but seems like everyone is constantly Having diarrhea or constipation.

My (not so) conspiracy theory is Monsanto and micro plastics are inflaming the gut.

A certain Nintendo American was trying to help with that but we threw him in jail.

He knows what he is talking about, imagine thinking that lessons about how to harvest non-believers foreskins is not something suitable for a children’s library

“Consumers should not be affected by price increases”… Gavin Newsom is delusional or stupid. This would be the first time in human history where regulatory business costs are not passed on to the customer. Want he just saying “businesses will pass on the price increase from tariffs to the customer”? He know this for a fact because everytime he passes regulations that increase prices for a business in California they just pass it on to the consumer.

He still sucks, but his batting average on a lot of medical and food policies would make most MLB stars jealous.

It’s been years since I’ve worked at Amazon, but even before Covid the cracks in the system started showing. When I joined “consultant” and “MBA” were dirty words. But by the time I was leaving these same “does nothing, demands everything” leaders were all ex-consultants with MBAs. They were all “Program/Product Managers” that seemed to just create requirements out of thin air for no reason to justify their jobs. Engineers had a high bar for promotion, while these jackasses seemed to get one every 6 months. When I left, I was told I was not wanted back and was a “non rehire”. I now get hit up every week to come back and I remind recruiters that I’m a “non rehire” and they are so desperate they are willing to look past that and give a promotion. I usually end the convo by demanding a crazy amount of money so they will stop messaging, but there is always a new recruiter every week

Got the old Clinton special

Yes, because of the “super” delegates which was like 20 people who can automatically outvote the other hundreds of delegates.

If it weren’t for Hillary and the DNC being corrupt, Bernie would have destroyed trump in 2016. I know so many people where I was living in middle America that flipped from Bernie to Trump.

You don’t want to work for my company. You’re welcome

I like to shit on Elon as much as the next person, but as someone who works in aerospace mfg, if he understands 3% of SpaceX’s manufacturing and supply chain he is already in the top 99.9999999%. What they have accomplished is absolutely unfathomable and why we have to make exceptions when hiring experienced SpaceX people into our company to pay 2-3x standard pay for them. They really really know their shit and are making everyone in the industry better by leaving SpaceX.

Most of America doesn’t give a shit about California women’s right to an abortion, or that transgenders should be allowed in whatever bathroom they want, or that Trump is “weird”. They care about “am I better off now than I was last year?” And the answer for a lot of people is “no”. They look at the democrats brag about unemployment rates being low and that is inflation is brought under control, while most of America is still paying $5 for eggs that used to be $2. Everyday middle Americans can no longer afford simple things and their kids are worse off than they are. I know this problem wasn’t wholly created by Biden, Harris, or even Trump, but Americans felt like Harris didn’t care about their plight and that her upper class California woman self was really unrelatable. Then Harris spends a lot time trying to get celebrity endorsements and she is so out of touch that she didn’t realize celebrity endorsements actually lose you votes. People don’t care what Beyonce and Cardi B think about politics, well not the smart people or the people’s vote you actually need.

Apparently didn’t investigate enough. In high school I had a teacher that had a masters from Columbia and was a total moron. Made me realize that maybe Ivy League is more about who can afford it than brains. Also, journalism isn’t a history degree and it shows. You ever wonder why the best authors on historical topics all come out of Britain and have history degrees? Is well known that American “historians” post 1985 are all trash because they are journalists and not historians.

We need to stop being like “they went to Ivy League so they must be smart!” The most brilliant people I work with went to state schools and I work at a very recognizable tech company.

it does not derail the race based slaveryn in America that made it distinct from the rest of the world

This blogger can’t be this dumb, the derivation of slave comes from Slav because of the Muslim enslavement, specifically of whites.

Arabs continued the slave trade long after it was outlawed and still do race based slavery to this day. I don’t agree with downplaying it, but at least teach it accurately.

Didn’t they understand that risk when they entered the country illegally? I mean I know they are in a desperate situation, but if I was fleeing to Canada and then I get kicked out because I’m there illegally what right do I have to complain?
