0.5% isn't a landslide at any latitude

True.

But as a "social capital" seeker, I'm keen to see more the typical italian mafia boss. He lives in a concrete hole in a small bs town but he can bend the government to his interests. That's the pure love for the power.

Musk is way simplier. He wants people to say he's good. He's a child.

But he's also an asshole, so people doesn't love him and he doubles down, in his search for appreciation.

I think so.

It might do a difference in some situations, but probably not here.

AOC for example as a lot of power if compared to her wealth, while Musk sucks at politics and needs the money to achive power. At the same time AOC is galaxies away from the power Musk has just because of his money.

Putin for example wants to hide it, but he's not only powerful, before the war was worth 200 billions. I see money and power like interchangeable things.

I don't understand why you care so much, for me money and power get along 🤷

Sure, I took Elmo as a reference, bit I should have said the 1%, or the establishment or whatever.

The 1% needs a basement to stay on. The wider it get, the more stable it will be. Since the piramid it's not getting taller anymore, they're trying to make it wider at the bottom.

I'm 45 and since I was a kid I heard my father telling me his gen was the last getting richer than the one before.

We (westerns), did reach the peak and now every gen will be poorer year after year.

That's why rich people is hoarding wealth like never before. That's why Elmo wants to establish fascism, abolish worker rights and wants the people doing more childs. It doesn't matter for him if we get even poorer, he just wants to make his wealth future proof.

Politicians should be responsible for the people to vote.

An election with 63% of the voters should not allow a full mandate. Of course politicians will never agree to that on either sides, but it's how it should be imo.

Honestly, sometimes would be nice to have it while phone is charging and I want to use it.

Do you understand what he means with suicidial empathy?

That Gaad professor shows how deep is the rabbit hole Musk fell in. It seems like he follows any idiot who's is line with his own trip.

This is genius!

I don't know if he consider that a weakness.

He's a narcissist and it's how they work, they just miss empathy and they can't recognize their errors.
