I pity the family of someone who cannot get “wound up” about a man who gleefully dismantled USAID at the cost of hundreds of thousands of lives,[^1] ploughed hundreds of millions of dollars into far right politics, and did a fucking nazi salute.

Outside of Mad Max it’s hard to conceive of a more dangerous car to be involved in a pedestrian collision. The cybertruck is a symbol of staggering ignorance and selfishness.

We’ll probably still see them on the roads for many years to come—and laugh at the lickspittle Elon toadies who gleefully bought them, knowing full well what they symbolize.

Hear, hear. As much rage as there is that gets directed at this man, it’s only a tiny fraction of what he deserves for the atrocities he’s committed. I hope he rots in prison.

It's easy to "not care about politics" when they aren't voting to take away your rights.
