This is, like some other of your comments, very condescending. I won't speculate on what you hope to achieve by these remarks, just comment that I don't think this kind of condescension has done Common Lisp much good over its hist

> clearing up the way as fast as possible is safer for both. No. Speed kills, especially in the form of massive objects like a car. The car should slow and stay behind the cyclist until it is safe to overtake with adequate margin.

It's tinfoil hat territory, but the connection could run the other way in principle: the ex-exec could have been shopping for someone to injure Twitter and cooked up a plot in which Twitter was an innocent victim and Musk a double-cros

No, lettergram is misusing the term 'free market'. Free marketeers don't just want less government enterprise, they also want lower tariffs and light regulation.

That is erring on the side of hosting spam, urban legends and pseudoscience. The opinion was made in the AfD that no quality sources for the article: without them, no worthwhile article can be written.

The hobbling of Dodd-Frank by Obama and its gutting by Trump, in each case at the behest of Wall Street, is an obvious example. Cf. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glass%E2%80%93Steagall_in_post...

'How do you show he is lying?' maybe makes the scenario harder to digest than it needs to be: we have great difficulty with this with, e.g., huckster politicians, since we might see that what the huckster is saying cannot be true
