Hugo Boss

Is that the Guy who designed the Nazi uniform?

Why do I know this? Did Alex Jones and Kayne West talk about him maybe? I am now concerned for myself.

Eh, it’s one of those brands that has weird Nazi associations that still exists. It’s fine to have it as one of those “things” that you have in your head as a “hmm” mark around companies.

  • IBM helped make the bureaucracy of genocide more efficient.
  • Fanta is Coca-Cola for Nazis.
  • Hugo Boss made their uniforms.
  • Volkswagen was the Nazi-mobile.

You can and should say a lot of awful things about the Nazis but you have to admit their uniforms were stylish.

I heard a Trump ad where they were talking about Kamala enacting gun control laws, socializing medicine, abolishing ICE, and defunding the police. Don’t you threaten me with a good time!

Projection once again. Only one of them actually vowed to be a dictator on day one. And it ain’t Kamala.

Not projection in this case.

Notice that trump already says he will be a dictator on the first day. There’s already video of him saying that, and it is kind of hard to debt it and claim he meant something else.

MAGAts have no good defense for it either.

Muskow is using obvious AI created picture, to dillute how damming is trump’s statement. He essentially says “oh you have video of trump saying he will be a dictator? That’s AI! I can make Kamala also say something like that”

And at this point the attention is diverted, that trump literally wants to be a dictator and no longer is even trying to hide it and everyone is arguing what’s real what’s not.

Well he had millions in a PR fund before, and likely still does now. He’s a real moron for fucking it all up. When he was made to step down as chairman on Space X for one of his dumb ass statements, investors threatened to pull out of he wasn’t still on the board, he was supposed to be this sure thing. He burned a whole image as an stock market winner to be king shit of Twitter.

I was just talking about this with a friend. Remember back when he seemed like a neat guy? Quirky and kind of a dick sometimes but maybe an actual good rich guy with interesting ideas. He was even on Rick and Morty!

It turns out that was all bullshit. What a disappointment he turned out to be.

He misjudged the time ghost. But also he fired the woman who kept his image and behavior under control, and lost his mind over unions. I imagine he thought he’d be like Walt Disney, but aforementioned zeitgeist made him look like Henry Ford with less competence and sanity.

I know he always had tumultuous relations with Grimes, the two of them both seem to have a lot of issues both separately and together. But also Naziism is meant to appeal to people like him. He is rich, powerful, and emotionally insecure. He must hear that he is special and better and that he should be having a ton of sex. He parrots eugenics that flatters him because it tells him what he needs to hear.

He refuses therapy because what he needs to hear to be healthy is the opposite, that he needs positive interactions with those around him and that that comes from genuine humility. That Twitter is terrible for him and that psychedelics clearly haven’t helped him fill the emptiness inside and so he’d be better served by something like volunteering. Not by giving some huge extravagant shit to show he’s the best, or some partisan thing. Something like swinging a hammer for habitat for humanity or stocking a food pantry. Something painfully ordinary that does direct good, allows him to be taught or guided and corrected, and puts him in community with strangers for a common goal. But he’s not going to do that. The emptiness in his soul is like an irrational phobia, it drives him away from the solution and towards behavior that makes him into a weirder and less likable person. If he hollows his soul out enough he’ll feel less empty right?

I knew about Elon from some very lengthy posts on a blog called waitbutwhy that made him look like some very rad dude.

I loved that blog because it was informative and funny and it had a very hopeful view on future technologies, it all sounded incredibly exciting.

Then they made a post taking cryonics seriously and I was like “huh?”. And then I started learning who Elon really was and now I can’t trust that blog anymore.

I was always aware he existed, but didn’t know much about him. I just had the general sense that he was an eccentric billionaire that seemed like an okay guy overall, which is the image he cultivated. As someone who’s been disappointed by people I admire revealing themselves to be pieces of shit before, I can empathize with previous Musk fans who aren’t right-wing shitheads.

The more public-facing a person you are, the harder it is to sue for libel. Suing for libel as a presidential candidate is a catastrophically stupid decision. Not only are you subject to discovery (in this case, Kamala would have to submit her entire wardrobe to the public record to prove she doesn’t own a red Stalinist-chik pantsuit), and she would lose the lawsuit anyway because presidential candidates are about as “public figure” as you can get.

It would be the worst possible fight to pick right now. Could you imagine the field-day the right would have if her entire wardrobe were to be made public?
