If you're dreaming of comebacks via midterms and elections, you're kidding yourself. It will take an uprising. By trying to prevent it, the democrats are doing their bidding. 1252868687

alex @jalexg.bsky.social · 18/02/2025So...if, and I'm just saying *if* Musk & Trump were deliberately gutting all safety, security & enforcement apparatus, in order for, oh say Russia, to attack American infrastructure causing nationwide collapse... how would that look different from what's happening? 0111
alex @jalexg.bsky.social · 18/02/2025Obama was the 44th president, because his terms were consecutive. Grover Cleveland's terms were nonconsecutive, so he was the 22nd AND 24th president, like how Trump is the 45th and 47th. You can just look up the list of how many people were president, then subtract Trump, if this math is too hard. 010

alex @jalexg.bsky.social · 14/02/2025There is nothing in the universe more terrifying than someone you love and trust telling you they're going to hurt you. Locutus is the death of a father, the betrayal of a best friend, and the fall of a beloved institution, all in one horrible moment. 020
alex @jalexg.bsky.social · 28/01/2025His impatience is strategic. They're overwhelming people with so much horrific shit all at once that everyone gets instantly exhausted & demoralized. Basically shock & awe but with democracy as the enemy. And it appears to be working. 010
alex @jalexg.bsky.social · 24/01/2025Lest we forget: Data, a character who never fails to remind us he is not human and has no emotions, given the choice of any word in any language in the galaxy, chooses to name his child "Beloved." I'm not crying, we're all crying. 0200

alex @jalexg.bsky.social · 06/01/2025This is how democracy dies. With one side calmly, obediently following protocol while the other side sharpens their knives. Nobody's storming the Capitol, but rest assured accepting Donald Trump as president is gonna have a higher body count than Jan 6 2021. 010
alex @jalexg.bsky.social · 06/01/2025Sure. Who knows. My concern isn't "is Adrian Dittman a real person or not," my concern is "is the richest & most powerful man on earth a raving psychotic with nazi sympathies & the mind of a spoiled 13-year-old" His behaviour makes the answer to the latter really clear, regardless of the former. 100
alex @jalexg.bsky.social · 06/01/2025And while it is entirely possible this is not true & Musk is trolling here, I think we need to acknowledge that that, if true, is just as weird and sad as if he really was creating fake stan accounts & spending hours posting on multiple platforms as them 000
