I personally don’t give a shit

You also personally don't give a sh*t if the US has a dictator, and you hate the Constitution and all it stands for. We know.

We have a dictator today. He's called Joe Biden.

haha.. Trump loves dictators and said he wants generals like Hitler did, but Biden is a dictator because ?

Explains why Russian trolls are running even more rampant on X

How is Musk not breaking election and contractor laws?

Federal government contractors are prohibited from making contributions or expenditures, or promising to make any such contribution or expenditure, to any political party, committee, or candidate for federal office, or to any person for any political purpose or use. A federal government contractor is a person who enters into a contract, or is bidding on such a contract, with any agency or department of the United States government and is paid, or is to be paid, for services, material, equipment, supplies, land or buildings with funds appropriated by Congress. Since corporate contributions are already prohibited, the government contractor ban applies primarily to contributions from a partnership (or a limited liability company that has not elected to be treated as a corporation for federal tax purposes) that has entered into or is bidding on a government contract. It also applies to the personal and business funds of:

Individuals under contract to the federal government; and
Sole proprietors of businesses with federal contracts.
This prohibition does not apply to contributions or expenditures in connection with state or local elections.

This is cut and dry: federal contractors cannot donate in the furtherance of elections.

This. It’s getting pointless to look for real discussion anymore.

I’ll discuss with you, but then I am a real person and a Democrat.

I would bet Elon has been committing treason by the strict definition laid out in the law. Of course he has to put his whole hand on the scale for Trump; Trump has so far evaded any real consequences, and billionaires generally don’t experience consequences, but every so often the chips align just so and perhaps Elon knows just how many felonies he’s committed.

Why does this guy have so much power in this country? He’s not American, he’s not patriotic, he doesn’t care about our values. All he cares about is accruing more wealth and power, and using politicians to gain them. It’s so depressing there is no mechanism to stop him.

Not a coincidence.

Allegedly they discuss personal matters. What does Putin have on Musk?

He used Russia, Chinese and Saudi money to buy Twitter, specifically to turn it into the propaganda trash heap that it is today.

A+ except you forgot about the Diddy money

Why do we allow billionaires to rule us?

Because the government keeps giving them handouts. Too big to fail, remember?

Also because many people seem to admire them and everything their money can buy.

Because they control our media and convince many that all politics is a brawl, that BoThSiDeS are equally bad, that we can’t change anything. People tune out. They stop voting. And that apathy lets the Republican Party, with their sick obeisance to billionaires, win and never holds billionaires accountable.

Stop listening to them.

If people stopped watching Fox and CNN and using Twitter, those companies would have far less power.

Exactly. But they just can't help themselves.

Money on one hand and the threat of cybercrimes/satellite interference and sabotage on the other.

It is probably Elon Musk money that has so many MAGA bots in here ruining the forum.
