It’s easy to get a following by fostering fear and hate. Literally just blame and vilify a group and blame them for all the problems your target audience has.

I do agree males are disproportionately impacted by certain things… look at prison, suicide, etc. but I also think feminism would correct that. I’m a truly equal society, men wouldn’t bare the brute of the stress of financial support, for example. I also think in a truly equal society, the notion that men chase women goes away. People are just out there trying to find love and/or happiness.

If you have that, a lot of the symptoms you mentioned, where men are disproportionately affected go away.

It’s because they hide behind “freedom of religion” when what they mean is they want a Christian theocracy.

lol of course he thinks the companies are “blackmailing him” and not that the companies don’t want to advertise in the cesspool he has turned twitter into.

Even if you didn’t like twitter before, it’s much worse now than Elon has worked his magic. Why would companies want to pay money to have their brands side by side with nazi posts.

I’m surprised no one has mentioned Home Alone.

Seeing it altogether- the naming is really quite ridiculous.

Something something drain the swamp. Trump drained the swamp by appointing his kids and his friends kids White House positions and forcing everyone to use his hotels.

Don’t even get me started how Fauci is corrupt!

There is no logic in the Republican Party

Can you even explain what is gender identity? Since you are so against it. What is it and why shouldn’t kids learn about it?

It is a little incredulous that somehow only you have figured out the real reason Musk didn’t activate Starlink.

With so many articles coming out, no officials making a statement, hell even a biographer shadowing Musk at the time. Even Musk gives alternate reasons and doesn’t say it, even if it would save him from a lot of bad press.

So the only one saying Musk didn’t activate Starlink was because of US sanctions is you, and not even Musk himself.

There’s not article, just you deducing from the US sanctions list.

What against US policy? Escalating the war? We already are sending tons of military equipment, some used in counter offensives.

Post the link and full article you got that from, I’d like to read but many of the links are pay walled.

Here’s what I read from one of the links you referenced, I would think Musk would say it’s against US policy if that’s the reason he chose not to activate Starlink

“There was an emergency request from government authorities to activate Starlink all the way to Sevastopol,” Musk wrote on X, the platform previously known as Twitter.

“The obvious intent being to sink most of the Russian fleet at anchor. If I had agreed to their request, then SpaceX would be explicitly complicit in a major act of war and conflict escalation,” Musk wrote.

An excerpt about the raid from American author and journalist Walter Isaacson’s upcoming biography on Musk, titled “Elon Musk,” was published by CNN. Ukrainian submarine drones loaded with explosives were approaching a Russian naval fleet in the Crimean city of Sevastopol when they lost connection and “washed ashore harmlessly,” according to Isaacson.

Musk was concerned about Russia responding to the naval attack with a nuclear weapon, Isaacson wrote in the book, according to CNN. Ukrainian officials

Musk didn’t allow it. Full stop. It’s not so,e government sanction thing.

Even quotes you reference are from Musk, himself, sharing why he decided so. Musk said he chose not to activate it because he’d be apart of escalating the war…

And there in lies the paradox of tolerance… which ultimately leads to the intolerant taking over.
