    That’s a pretty bold allegation. Any proof or are you just slippery sloping the shit out of a blue check mark?

        We aren’t talking about Florida. This is about X.

        Or who did you mean by “they”

          this was answered already, but since you don’t seem to get it the first 5 times, “they” refers to far right actors, such as Musk.

            I was genuinely confused but now I’ve realized that I stumbled into some polarized red vs blue nonsense that I have no intention of continuing. I don’t make it a habit to group reds and blues together and collectively pin everything on the group.

            Politics is a sham and arguing red vs blue is actually the problem.

      Read about Project 2025. The far is right is announcing its intentions to anyone who will listen.

        Wait, we jumped from X removing a blue check mark to the far right spouting nonsense? That’s a huge leap

          Have you heard the things Elon says, or seen the people he signal boosts, or heard of the people and groups he associates with? It’s about as big of a leap as me getting out of bed in the morning, specifically back when I lived in a treehouse and slept on the floor.

            No I haven’t. But I definitely know that no one is throwing visibly queer people in work camps in the USA.

            I’ve since discovered that this is a red vs blue powered issue, which makes this discussion moot. Throwing rocks for any reason at the other color isn’t useful. I vote third party and stay out of red vs blue.

          it’s not really a huge leap. Musk is literally part of the group, trying to pull it off.

            Elon Musk is trying to send visibly queer people to concentration camps? Is there proof of this or is this just some red vs blue nonsense?
