The common folk are simple billionaires. The elites are baristas with blue hair and gender.

No Joke, I thought V for Vendetta took place in just slightly exaggerated UK.

[-] FlakesBongler@hexbear.net 61 points 3 months ago

It did!

Alan Moore wrote it as a rather pointed excoriation of Thatcher's Britain

It's one of the reasons that Moore distanced himself from the film, because he believed that it made the story too broad to actually have a point

I don't disagree with him on that

He's paying for the blue check and Musk is desperately trying to keep Twitter afloat

Can we not post him ? Like at all ? If u want part of that soap opera - go to twitter

[-] miz@hexbear.net 43 points 3 months ago

thesis: post it

antithesis: don't post it

synthesis: post it in c/the_dunk_tank

[-] QuietCupcake@hexbear.net 11 points 3 months ago

The post should probably be in the dunk_tank where people who don't want to see this kind of thing can just unsubscribe from that comm. But it would be silly and counterproductive to deny people here catharsis and the ability to shit on elon's delusional fascism (or other any strain of fascism for that matter, regardless of how rich and famous the person expressing that fascism is. ahem.)

I understand we are a somewhat enlightened audience, but attention is what created him, and is what sustains him.

And it trivialises his malevolence, focus on his trolling the gullible.

[-] QuietCupcake@hexbear.net 3 points 3 months ago

but attention is what created him, and is what sustains him.

Then why recommend people go talk about him on twitter, where it might actually feed and sustain him in a tiny way, as opposed to here, where he will never know of it? Also, while I do think there are the type of people who thrive on any kind of attention be it positive or negative, it seems clear that elon actually cries, whimpers, and rages inside at being thought of as the pathetic dumbass that he is, and requires the fawning and worship of his sycophants as positive affirmation to maintain his ego against reality, against those who say of him what is true. Talking of his malevolence doesn't trivialize his malevolence.

The man’s face literally looks like a giant fucking tit and I love giant titties and yet I hate even glancing at him

[-] moonlake@hexbear.net 17 points 3 months ago

This is just a shitty version of my meme.

Mr. Musk I will be seeing you in court for theft of intellectual property.

btw this motherfucker is the richest man on earth and thinks he's the scrappy underdog agony-yehaw

I don't think anyone watched divergent

[-] booty@hexbear.net 10 points 3 months ago

I read it when it came out

Even then I was like "yeah that kinda sucked" and moved on lmao, and i was in middle school

[-] mar_k@hexbear.net 7 points 3 months ago

i did a middle school presentation on the first book but couldn't get past the first chapter so i used sparknotes

[-] Cowbee@hexbear.net 11 points 3 months ago

Musk's rebel fetishization is disgusting and pitiful. He genuinely seems to believe himself to be oppressed by society, despite wielding immense power over it.

He's a Nazi, through and through.
