Das Gift des Naumann-Kreises, oder doch einfach nur konsequent zu Ende gelebter Kapitalismus im Endstadium? Vielleicht sollten FDP und AFD fusionieren, als neue Partei "AfDP". Passt doch auch, die finden alle den Faschisten Musk geil.

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine had a great way of exposing that attitude through the Ferengi. Quark, the proprietor of Quark's Bar, mistreats his employees again, and they are pissed. Station chief Miles O'brian tries to rally them to form a union of bar workers and to strike, and one of them, Rom, actually says:

Ferengi workers don't want to stop the exploitation. We want to find a way to become the exploiters.

The lie of the "american dream" - don't rally against rich people, for you might once become one of them^[your chance might be less than one in a trillion].

Bit late for that. I think at this point what you need is a revolution.

At this point, I really do believe the guy could step onto timesquare and just kill a bunch of people, and his voters would still do the mental gymnastics to explain all of that away as the act of a genius businessman just out there to save your average white suburbanite slob. If they even believed it in the first place, the probability of which is quite low.

So yeah, no, that seems quite unlikely.

I think in psychology, this is called "projection".

Eine Partei, ein Gesicht, ein Thema: konsequent wäre ein Prozent.

...because his daddy already plundered ZA?

I get confused... is that the famed American free speech that Mr. Vance wants to foist upon us backward Europeans?

A true revolution: now featuring AI generated Wilhelm screams!

Mein Gott Lindner, mach endlich rüber in die Staaten und lass' dich von Musk schwängern. Ist ja nimmer auszuhalten.
