How did a genius like Musk not know this? I'm stupid in comparison and I could have told him that.
It seems increasingly clear that he is not a genius.
I've said it before and I always thought it readily apparent, but intelligent people can be fucking clueless. With Musk I think it's a combination of that, Asperger's, and his dickish "my way or the highway" attitude about EVERYTHING he encounters.

I've known a handful of PRC citizens (as co-workers, mostly) and I found it surprising how varied their attitudes/opinions were.

I would suspect it's those considered politically reliable who are permitted to travel/work/study abroad, but those I've had conversations with spanned a range of views I found surprising. Went from very conservative nationalism (weirdly hard-to-distinguish from Trumpery and complete with anti-black racism and admiration for the US right) to still-believing leftist Maoism (bemoaned the fact they met more communists here than they did back home), and others in-between.

I'm probably very naive about it all, as I'm only talking a handful of people, but they were much less uniform in their views than I would have expected.

Almost all the PRC citizens I have met are in favour of the CCP. Not that I expect them to tell me otherwise. No reason to take unnecessary risk for chit chat.

The fact that Musk Puppet doesn't disclose the fact that the entire list of remove requests from the Biden campaign team (he wasn't even president yet) were non-consensual dick pics that violated even Musk's own Twitter TOS is all the evidence you need to prove Musk is attempting a buttery males scandal.
Well they should be suing trump then as he was in charge of violating the 1st right?

:)

he's now saying that twitter was the reason behind Bolsanaro's loss in Brasil

Musk is playing Jackie Wright's part and Donny is playing Benny.

Kanye’s Mother-in-law wants a former Twitter executive prosecuted for Treason. Treason? ...How bout Trump first. And for what? depriving the American people at a time of war of their sacred and inalienable right to see Hunter Biden’s dick pics?

says that if caitlyn is doing the tweeting they'll be signed. so there's some possibility that Ye got a hold of her phone and is tweeting

With Tesla and Twitter stock tanking, is he still number one?
Hope not?
Anyway, with the steroid infusion this Hunter shit has just gotten, its pretty clear that the R House is gonna ride this wave... The zone is gonna get absolutely flooded with shit. Thanks Elon. I hope dems have a strategy to deal with this shit... lawsuits leaning on the Jones verdict maybe? Thanks Elon. Thanks for shit Elon. Thanks Elon.

I imagine Trump’s indictment will overshadow most of this.

I am beginning to get with the lizard program… Its almost like there is a species within the species, a sub set of “us” that wakes up in the morning, puts their human mask on and ventures out into the world and fakes it.

I do agree that's extreme but I see where they are coming from, it's not about what Hitler did, but how he got to the point of doing that and got the people's support.

Look at what's going on in China. THAT is the kind of stuff we don't want to happen here. This is why protests are important and that governments need to be kept in check. They are suppose to be public servants not dictators and sometimes they need to be reminded this. Trudeau is a hypocrite for saying he supports China protests while he called the Canada one nazis and other names.

There are lot of people from China who are in Canada and do not like what they see, because they've experienced it at home. If you pay attention there is lot of stuff not on the news that's going on, such as bills to suppress free speech. Bill C-11 for example. The government will have authority over any content that you publish online. That's stepping into very dangerous territory.

I have a good friend that is very much Chinese and lived in your Canada for the last 6 years.

He thinks you're an idiot.

I am 100% positive that this "a lot of people from China don't like what they see happening in Canada" is purely made up horseshit from unsourced nonsense spammed by idiots that you identify with and uncritically sympathize with.

Or you just made that up right now in this post.
