Yeah pretty much, though the last few elections have been in eastern states or EU related where they always score way above average. I have at least a little hope that coming elections won't be as bad.

And nobody was surprised. I predict most advertisers will return by the end of January for the same reasons they left previously: It's the right business decision at the right time. Remember that the next time a corporation makes a pledge. It's always about money.

The FTC does have a pretty solid track record under their current lead, it's just that it will likely be demolished under Trump.

It should be added this was discovered to the surprise of absolutely no one.

What does a datacenter need a huge glass front for? Slashing carbon emissions? Yeah right.

Oh that isn't even a flyspeck on the window compared to the shit he does to his 'allies' when he needs a fallguy or simply gets tired of them. And something tells me Elon won't be so accepting of his role as orange man's personal doormat so this will be interesting to watch in a morbid way if nothing else.

Good, I hope they raise pricing too and pay creators even less. Make it hurt. It's the only language users understand apparently.

Please don't take this the wrong way but as a fellow german it is extremely disturbing how our education system couldn't make you understand how the Nazis rose to power. It's the core theme of history class or at least it's supposed to be in all of Germany. I have spent countless lessons learning about all the steps how an extremist minority could take the country by storm with relatively low resistance. While other countries learn about special operations and battles in WW2, we germans learn all about how Hitler could come to power and what we can do to prevent it from happening again. The fact that this little text could make you understand something you should've learned in your childhood shows me why it's gone downhill so much recently. Most germans really do not understand how fascism works, do they?

I think you give the rest of America too much credit if you think a dumbass like him wouldn't get rewarded for his unhinged ruthlessness. The country is essentially a giant casino for billionaires at this point and Elon won by betting an absurd amount on red.

You know that's kind of the point with the whole MAGA thing. They're picking up exactly where they left off in 2020 with thundering applause.

Hey, it's not only his cars that kill people, his assembly lines kill them too! And now he'll be in charge of all the assembly lines.
