Can’t wait until all these losers finally realize trump is done and crawl back into the shadows
As an imminent Harris/Walz voter, this comment shocks me. It’s 2016 all over again and I’m realizing people are living in a Hillary bubble. Acting like this shit is in the bag. It is SO NOT IN THE BAG. Not even fucking close.
Now I’m not going to spam a bunch of voting links and opine on how it’s up to you to make a difference and make it so. M
This bubble is serious and I’m very afraid of what kind of reality is going to be crashing around all around this country and the world when an also shocked Trump sees the results roll in election night and he is now the new King of America (in his eyes). “They really do love me. God has chosen me. I am supreme.”
You fools. You don’t realize that this is so within the margin of error it’s a totally real and near possibility.
Trump is not done until it’s done.
When they realize he is done, there will be a battle for the position of his successor, so don’t put your hopes up.
They’ve spent 80 years looking for a successor to Hitler and never found one.
Sometimes building a cult around an individual doesn’t work out long term for a movement.
I don’t know, I think they got pretty close. Trump standing out there in front saying you’ll never have to vote again… Even now it’s not a sure thing and he’s not going to make it in.
Hitler wasn’t this magical evil mastermind that just appeared in a vacuum. The fascists were huge party of people that helped him rise to power.
There was already a battle for the position of his successor during the GOP primaries this year. Everyone lost.
Trump won. One day he will lose and that is when these others will crawl out of the shadow again. How would you like “Musk 2028”? :D
They looked for one, spent 4 years, didn’t find one. He lost back to back popular votes. If they thought they had someone more popular, they would have used them.
Ya, there’s no successor.
Trump is a one-off, and his popularity and spellbinding cult effect on 50% of Americans will baffle intelligentsia for millennia.

Buying a Tesla is a vote for Big Orange.
His backing signaled that Trump would have all the cash and social media firepower he needed to regain the White House, and it added to a perception that Trump had won over a big share of America’s tech industry and entrepreneur class.
I’m in tech and I don’t like the orange bad. Billionaires might, but not the rest of us.
Musk’s endorsement was arguably the most high profile and coveted of this election cycle, given his unprecedented mix of wealth, celebrity and media reach.
Folks, can we please agree to use the Oxford Comma? Its absence makes me cry.

Its absence makes Rachael Ray seem psycho:
Indeed. I loathe the term “tech bros” because it makes zero distinction between douchebags born into money and that fell backwards into obscene amounts of even more money vs, people like myself who have been into tech from very formative ages, and mostly were ostracized and marginalized for it to a great deal already, until only fairly recently when, for a few short periods of time, certain individuals get lionized and some kind of respect, but usually only if they are involved with either making obscene amounts of money, or by being central to that effort of making someone else a lot of money.
In a strict sense, I’m a “tech bro” (being male and into tech) but that doesn’t mean I want to be lumped in with dickhead freaks like Elon.
Same. I got into it for a love of tech. It was cool to work at a company that was doing something exciting. Then people started getting into it not for love of tech but because they found out it could provide high salaries. Same people who become lawyers and doctors only because money. It’s not fun anymore.
I will say that my enjoyment of it comes and goes. I hate to say it, but I think there was a huge problem with people rushing into this industry during the late dot-com boom and they had absolutely no business in the industry, and I see a fair bit of that again. Not sure if that is indicating another bust like that one.
What I’ve also noticed lately is that there seems to be a real culture of gatekeeping type of thing that has emerged - meaning, expecting people to grind away on algorithms and so on just to pass an interview, or expecting people to show all their free time doing commits on GitHub, as if everyone is working for FAANG and is going to be in their early 20s, no matter what the business is actually doing and what their needs really are. Very few places actually need people to do massively distributed systems, serving customers in the way that FAANG does, so the algorithms and the opportunity to try to see how much computer science [whatever] someone remembers at the whiteboard, as well as stats on Github have little to do with the actual job, but there are a lot people that want to make people dance this little jig, anyway.
That culture absolutely sucks, IMHO.
I could describe myself in similar terms as you described yourself; basically a nerd who can also program my way out of a paper bag (and maybe a leather one).
To me the term “tech bro” always meant someone between Elon Musk and some low middle class douche-bag who feels smart and adult about “accepting” that AI needs to be everywhere and we also need to pay for SW every month. Someone person who would say “bUt iT’s fOrD mOdEl T” and has some Alexa non-sense in their house.
Over the years, Phony Stark went from some sort of [anti]hero to straight up supervillain. I guess kinda like Robert Downey Jr. from Iron Man to Dr. Doom.
Supervillains have some sort of charisma. People love to hate them. When a Bond villain is on screen, it’s like oh, this guy is cool… if Musk was in a movie it would be like wow, please skip this shit, this guy is boring and creepy. Musk is far from authentically charming. He tries though, and it’s nauseating. I admit that the deranged tangerine baboon has some sort of natural charisma - Musk does not. His special facial expressions are atrocious. His attempts at humor are embarrassingly bad. He has very little social awareness. To top it all off, despite being an off putting and repellent petty, immature and clueless ignoramus, he clearly radiates that he think he is the absolute best. So, his new sycophant relationship with Trump is perfect. He’d be like the #2 or 3 evil henchmen, kind of a side character, who gets knocked off 2/3 through the film and the crowd is relieved.
What do you get when you cross Kim Jong Un and Jean-Baptiste Emanuel Zorg?
Is this going to be the next photo he permanently deletes from the internet forever? I still can’t believe this one is gone
Maybe they dug too deep for those hairplugs and damaged the empathy part of his brain?

Is this supposed to be formatted using a larger font or something? I’m on Apollo and I just see a bunch of carrets.
