Didn't this guy ban the @elonjet account for doing a lesser version of this?

Yeah I think that's the frustrating part of this. Either allow elonjet back or get banned for doing this. But having it both ways shows how shit a person Elon Musk is.
If anyone asks, to me, it's THIS aspect of it that's the big problem. Musk is literally doing the thing that he hated about elonjet.
He's always been a hypocrite and entirely untrustworthy. If you believe he is doing ANYTHING in good faith, it's kind of on you at this point. If people stopped interacting with these fucking musk articles we wouldnt see them every 2 seconds.
The thing he hated about Elonjet was that it targeted him.
The public learning that efficiency is billionaire's dog whistle for mass layoffs.
We destroyed public education half a century ago to cut the oligarchs taxes.
Half of our public still thinks giving the oligarchs the remaining crumbs they can no longer make corporate landlord rent with will somehow be urinated back on them as prosperity.
Our public can't learn.
The ideal laborers. You can exploit them until they're bruised and bleeding, then then just point at the powerless, starving, dying homeless person on the sidewalk and say they did it and you should hate them for it. Problem solved.
Wow more efficient! My job will get easier!
This is vile. These are non-elected positions and the people who hold them are doing a job the government asked them to do.
You can complain about the positions but you do not attack people personally over it. Especially if your followers are as stupid and dangerous as musk's.
This from the guy who smoked weed on the Joe Rogan p;dcast, talked about how he does ketamine at parties, and has been talking to Pootles for the last year, all while having a security clearance. Yeah
How's Rogan even allowed to own a gun?
His friends are cops who don't care. They get different rules from us.

So misogynist Musk went after a bunch of women for online harassment?
I hope they sue him. I seriously do.
SCROTUS: Lol
Incel King's got priorities: start with all the women who said no.
It's sickening. I just read about the professor who had to leave her job and home after he sicced his deplorable fanbois on her all because she was critical of Tesla's driver-assist.
Cummings said she already knows of federal employees who “have dedicated their lives to civil service,” already quitting their jobs in anticipation of what’s to come.
“He intended for them, for people just like this, to be intimidated and just go ahead and quit so he didn’t have to fire them. So his plan, to some extent, is working,” she said.
CNN reached out to multiple experts and academics who specialize in cyber harassment, doxing and online abuse. But several declined to comment on the record for fear of themselves becoming Musk’s targets.
Professionals too afraid to speak about their area of expertise. Public servants quitting because they know what's coming for them. And Trump's not even started his second run yet.

It's terrifying federal workers
Well yeah, that is clearly the point.
Wow elon is stupider than he looks. And he looks super stupid.
He wants to give the US the Twitter treatment. Deport his ass back to South Africa.

DOGE isn't an actual department with any power, as it wasn't created by an act of Congress. I guess Elon's power will just be telling Trump who to fire?
Directing angry mobs at people in these positions could be an effective way of vacating them whether it's an "official" department or not.

205 names?
That seems very low, tbh. I was kind of expecting more, this just feels like a weird power move.
I would like to publicize the name of a piece of human shit: Elon Musk. I would also like to cut him from the government as well.
I wonder how many of them voted for Trump...
Honestly, I’m half expecting some disenfranchised kid to learn from the Ukrainian conflict, and take one of these muppets out with a drone. It’s pretty tricky to shoot even as large a target as trump with his security cordon, but this pillock wanders around in public, and it really would be pretty ironic for someone to live-stream the tech-daddy moron getting fpv’d into a fine paste

If anyone needs cutting it's him
Imagine if we could cut Musk and spend his trillion $ on infrastructure
I can see why it would.
"One of the posts reads: “I don’t think the U.S. taxpayers should pay for the employment of a ’Director of Climate Diversification (she/her)’ at the U.S. International Development Finance Corporation,”"
Let's then speak a bit about hyperloop you turd. Is that where you think tax money should be spent?
