Tired: bragging about how you always knew the true face of evil because you’re just more tuned in than other folks.

Wired: Sharing valuable, documented, normie news stories about how crypto is tied into crime and grossness at every level.

Inspired: Mocking an extreme-fasting, psychedelic-chugging weirdo for giving millions to a fascist fan of a dead guy who believed there’s aborted fetal material in pepsi and who was an AIDS and Covid denier who died of, shock, Covid.

(for mastodon users who don't get the image: it's Andrew Lawrence's "you know the ones" tweet)

I suspect Elon's pretty comfortable with his political ideology and ego, tbh. But I agree with the second part.

They want to ban kosher food and circumcision, but love the Israeli government and the war on Gaza, which says... so many things, about so many people.
