There was a survey four days ago in America where the people were asked how much did they believe America gave in aid. And most Americans believed it was 10-20% of GDP... and 60% of Americans believe that it goes to corrupt places and that the money is wasted. And they were asked, why do they believe this? And they were told, because they read what Elon Musk said on X. Elon Musk is a liar! Elon Musk is a liar and he has no place in government. The amount of money that you have does not give a legitimate place in government. Legitimacy in government only comes from the people.
Peter Thiel - who is Elon Musk's partner, and a primary funder for Google and Facebook and the others, and a major beneficiary to Trump - Peter Thiel said in 2008 that freedom, ladies and gentlemen, freedom is incompatible with democracy. Freedom is incompatible with democracy. No, Peter. Fuck off. It is only in true democracy that the people can attempt to achieve freedom. And we know that because of Putin, who is scared of it. There is no strength in autocracy. Being an autocrat is an admission of your weakness. You will fail and you will fail sooner than you imagine.
