He didn't pay 44 billion for Twitter. He paid 44 billion to restore free speech. I think his cause is more noble than sheer capitalism Edit: down vote and hate all you want... mark my words .. Elon is going to go down in history as a v

That's the cost of free speech apparently. Elon's cause is more noble than sheer capitalism. Advertisers don't want to be on a platform that allows honest, open communication. A sterile non-controversial platform is much safe

I tried to get a job working for the New York times tech department they treated me like absolute ass. Glad they're getting ripped off.

I'm always struggled with these types of people who think they're better than you and expect you to treat them as such. The weird part is if you show them up or prove that you're better than them in some way they become extre

These current politicians are continuing to skyrocket the national debt. I don't have to vote for new politicians. I just have to wait for the dollar to collapse.

showing gratuitous sex scenes is not developing the characters and not developing the plot. is literally just gratuitous clickbait. May have been titillating before PornHub existed, but now it's just a hassle to watch.

> helping a country defend itself from a brutal imperialistic invasion not helping defend democracy?. It's not anything that I'm willing to work a few extra hours a week to pay for.

So what? USA is not the world police. If there's no strategic interest or benefit I don't think I should have to work a few extra hours per week to help pay for that war.

It's hard evidence that shows European healthcare systems being more effective yet costing much less. European countries have safety nets much more rigorous than the United States. Education is much cheaper in many European countries t

I don't understand how Russia is considered powerful. Its got an economy the size of Italy. Three US states each have economies larger than Russia. The US is light years ahead of Russia, economically, militarily and technologically.

Russia is not a military threat though. It has an economy the size of Italy. Three US states each have bigger economies than Russia. The US blew past it on every level militarily, technologically, and economically decades ago. It has nukes

Syria, Yemen, Crimea, Darfur, Rwanda...we throw countries to the wolves all the time. In many cases the USA IS the wolf. I think the USA killed half a mil innocent civilians in Iraq part 1 and 2? The people in charge clearly arent hung up

I think people come here despite the government. If they wanted a good government they would move to some country in Europe which pays slightly more taxes but they get way more value for it. I don't think the US government is doing a g

Russia's economy is the size of Italy. The United States would utterly destroy them and any other country (except mayyybe China) in an outright military battle. Like it wouldn't even be close. No help from Ukraine needed. We have

I disagree. Maybe you've worked in more efficient government agencies, but I've worked in both sides and the private industry groups Ive worked with arent perfect but are massively more efficient.
