    “ONLY SOMEWHAT SUCCESSFUL”??? How many people’s lives did he ruin for his own shitty failure of an experiment? How much critical expertise was ripped away from the government, never to return?

    I remember the last time I felt any respect for Elon Musk was when he spoke out about climate change. Here’s a quote:

    We’re running the most dangerous experiment in history right now, which is to see how much carbon dioxide the atmosphere… can handle before there is an environmental catastrophe. – Elon Musk

    The government is like the Earth’s climate. You don’t make drastic experimental changes and hope for the best. People have been studying governments for literally millennia, and the climate for decades.

    Trying a huge change to the government without knowing ahead of time that it has a large chance of success (based on actual research), has got to be the stupidest type of experiment you can do with the government.

    I guess the big difference between DOGE cutting jobs and ruining not only people’s lives, but the government itself… The difference between DOGE doing that and humanity pumping as much carbon into the atmosphere as we can, is that one of them has the ability to actually affect Elon personally in the future. What a piece of irredeemable garbage he is.

      How many children died from usaid cuts. I read recently that an estimated 600,000 people died just from the cuts to AIDS medicines.

      Almost a half million in a few months.

      That’s partially on him. And everyone else who let him do that.

      God only knows how many people he killed. He’s a murderer.

      And dont even get me started on his junk unscientific neuralink “experiments” on animals.

      Which was being investigated by many of the departments he gutted.

      He has maimed and killed (painful horrible deaths) so many animals based on junk science.

      And is still doing it today.
