It was just a matter of time (and don’t be mistaken, he will act on it), but the general population sadly won’t give a fuck (that’s the only purpose we serve those in power, always have - a litmus test to see how comfortable the general population is with inflicting suffering on to and even exterminating groups of people), if anything a lot more than just maga people will be cheering this shit on, or at the very least “passively” supporting it (even if they don’t think they are, saying shit like “stupid people shouldn’t breed”* is the same eugenicist shit).

The usage of IQ as a measure of anything at all is in itself deeply eugenicist (so ableist, but also racist, classist, and sexist), but try telling people that and see how quickly you get dogpiled by so so many desperate to cling on to the sense of superiority an arbitrary number (which often came from an online quiz, though tbf, those are about as valid as a professionally administered one) gives them. It’s so problematic on so many levels, and serves no purpose but to divide and oppress.

I agree, it really is fucking scary…

E: *like several variations in the replies to this very post, people seriously need to do better.

I can see why you saved that, that’s very well said.

Makes total sense.

It does, when you realise they’re confident enough in their privilege to believe (often rightfully) that a world war won’t impact them personally.

Ah, see I’d seen that, but (before I realised the musk salute connection) I thought a roman hug was a reference to its own thing (like maybe getting stabbed in the back?), rather than just a tongue in cheek reference to the roman salute.

Thanks for the help 😂

Ok, rather than edit my reply to AbsolutelyNotAVelociraptor, I’ll reply again here because your comment helped the penny drop, and I’ve read the conversation again now realising that the reference to the hand gesture is to the dickhead’s salute, so I get the first comment, not sure about the “roman hug”, and assuming the last person is being sarcastic, saying what someone on the right might say because that’s how they defend musk?

Sorry, my brain isn’t entirely in gear yet and I think there may be too many levels of sarcasm overlapping 😂

I guess I too misunderstood, what does being neurodiverse have anything to do with it?
