I bookmarked this since all Musk-related stories are being flagged or otherwise downranked off the front page (strictly speaking, it's off topic, and thus expected..).
We are experiencing a historically unprecedented sequence of events.
P.s. If you know any alternate better information source(s), please do share.
- minimaxir 2y agoFollowing journalists and news sources on BlueSky will likely be more reliable, as they won't a) be flagged or b) be algorithmically downranked.
- metadat 2y agoAny specific links you can provide will be helpful.
- EA-3167 2y agoThe problem with that is you'll also get a lot of hysteria, not because this isn't a serious situation with potentially disastrous implications, but simply because journalists are hunting for clicks, and BlueSky trends... alarmist. My take is that Musk is in the process of really screwing up in a way that's going to bite him, because Trump has a very well documented history of feeding his underlings to the wolves. When all of this inevitably goes badly, starts dragging through the courts and congress, it won't be Trump taking the heat. How many of his first term's folks are there for the second? Even his truly hardcore sycophants like Bannon were excretes when the time came. I have no doubt that Musk has wicked intent, but I doubt his ability to make it come to fruition, or politically survive the attempt. Trump's ratio of heat to light is outstandingly in favor of heat, but it feels like people have once again lost sight of that.
