> Do my part to frustrate a man-child.

Who’s the man-child here though? Elon is running multiple companies, spread his DNA and ideas everywhere, and makes a very real impact on the world every day.

And then there’s you. Who believes it’s “noble” to frustrate someone you don’t like. In reality, you’re not frustrating anyone but yourself.

So I ask again.. who’s the man child? Elon? Or you?

And who’s the fascist? The man minding his own business, and doing his thing? Or the guy who desperately wants to tell that man what to do?

Did you spill your DNA everywhere writing this too? Or just on yourself?

If you’d like to continue believing that success is immaturity, or that freedom of speech is fascism, then that is certainly your prerogative.

Freedom of speech?

You mean like silencing users that use the term “cis” or “cisgender”? [0]

Or banning an account tracking his jet, even after explicitly stating that he was so committed to freedom of speech that he wouldn’t ban that specific account? [1]

Or complying significantly more often with suppression demands from authoritarian governments than the previous management of Twitter did? [2]

From your statements here it appears that you take everything he says at face value. I would strongly encourage you to stop doing that.

Really unconvincing argument. It’s just marxist straw grasping. I will continue on normally, but thanks for the suggestion.

I understand. I think that when faced with specific examples that refute my claim, I’d also prefer to shy away from addressing them and instead only reply to the final sentence of the post which was the least important.

> Elon is running multiple companies,

So? Nothing about that is inherently noble.

> spread his DNA and ideas everywhere

Much to my dismay. Most of his ideas have a long track record of being drastically incorrect or dangerous. And he treats his children like shit, so much that at least one of his children wants nothing to do with him. Also “spreads his DNA everywhere” is a really weird way to talk about how many children he has.

> and makes a very real impact on the world every day.

Agreed. He certainly impacted the millions of people he murdered running DOGE.

In a just world, he’d be behind bars for the rest of his pathetic life. But since we don’t live in a just world, I’m trying to do my (admittedly extremely small) part in correcting that.

> And who’s the fascist? The man minding his own business,

This is a hilariously wrong way to describe him. The fascist is the man who sieg heil’ed, twice, in front of a large audience, and then backed it up via every politically-related action he’s taken since then.

You’re not responding to anything I’m actually saying, and your statements are so hyperbolic that it’s not worth continuing in good faith. I’d welcome a good faith conversation if you change your mind.

> Name one of the millions of people he murdered. Just one. It’s funny that you can’t. But you will go on telling huge lies on the internet anyway.

Here are four: Yamah Freeman, Gbessey Kiadu, Ibrahim Koroma, Achol Deng. Elon Musk ran the “agency” that fed USAID “into the wood chipper.” He is therefore responsible for their deaths. This is murder. Please retract your statement.

Edit: here’s a bonus fifth name: Santina Sunday. This article has many paragraphs of detail about how and why she died. https://www.propublica.org/article/kenya-trump-usaid-world-f...

In short, please educate yourself and refrain from posting further fascist talking points until you do so.

I’m demonstrating your lack of value and your unclear thinking. My statements are plainly factual, which is why any marxist will absolutely hate them.

> Here are four: Yamah Freeman, Gbessey Kiadu, Ibrahim Koroma, Achol Deng. Please retract your statement.

None of those people were murdered by Elon Musk. So we have confirmed that you were wrong.
