    You’d think that would be a promotion, not a resignation.

      He’ll be shifted elsewhere within the fascist dictatorship.

    Headlines on this aren’t making it clear. He resigned after a judge limited his access. Racist social media posts are not the reason. That was part of the interview process.

          Some people are wondering if he was born and raised to be a Nazi. There is speculation that the name “Elon” came from the government body of Mars in the book “Project Mars” written by the nazi Werner von Braun.

      given that he uses sock puppet accounts, as horrendous as his main is, can you imagine how horrible the shit he must spew on his sock puppets is?

    Are we to believe that Musk (or his hiring team) didn’t know about these posts on his own platform?

    Or are we to believe that they knew about it and hired the little nazi shit, anyway? Because I’ll let you guess which one I believe.
