      Musk, like Peter Thiel, Curtis Yarvin, Marc Andreesson - the list of tech billionaires goes on - doesn’t want a democracy. They want to replace the elites. They want a technocracy/monarchy, just like Musk’s grandfather tried to implement.

      Traitors is 100% the word.

      “I no longer believe democracy and freedom are compatible” - Peter Thiel

      “If Americans want to change their government, they’re going to have to get over their dictator phobia.” - Curtis Yarvin

    They have the IP addresses logging in, and the data going out, the proof is all there.

    Well yeah. The U.S is currently a Russian puppet state. This is known by pretty much every intelligence agency around the world by now. They did it to the U.K too but has so far mostly failed in the rest of Europe. Russia has been pumping money into right wing movements and making allies across the western world for decades and put up a lot of politicians with cushy jobs in exchange for services rendered.

    I was expecting truly incredible levels of stupidity and malfeasance, and yet, they’re completely blowing away my expectations every fucking day. Jesus tapdancing christ.

    I can’t even fake my shock at this point. And of course nothing will come of this.

    The fact that DOGE caused a security breach is the least shocking news I can think of.

      Lol not a fucking chance. The people who have the power to do so, didn’t want to properly put these fascist fuckers in jail when they had a chance. Now they just cower and play along.

        At this point, he wouldn’t even need to call it anything or make any excuses. His followers would just suddenly no longer have a problem with pedos.

          I don’t think they do have a problem with them, they already keep electing them in staggering numbers. The two most common denominators of conservative elected officials are incompetence and child sexual assault.

    What I truly don’t understand, is why?

    What’s the endgame? What’s the purpose? What’s the benefit?

        See, that still doesn’t make sense. How will helping Russia steal Americans data help other Americans gain more power, control, and wealth?

        Those who desire power do not share it

        You would think they would be working against each other. Despite the ultimate goals of the two groups being similar in shape and colour. Ultimately they are polar opposites because the intent is for each group to have “power, control, and wealth” for themselves and no one else.

          They don’t want Americans to gain power, control and wealth. They want a cabal of rich men to gain power, control and wealth. And they feel no loyalty to any country or person, and no morality. All that guides them is their nose for whatever will increase their own power, control and wealth. That might mean loyalty to Trump or Putin, but only because a lack of loyalty would obstruct the process of increasing your power, control and wealth. Loyalty itself is only another form of expediency for them.

    I wonder how long it’s going to take US citizens to realize that they’re subjects of Russia.
