    “Get money out of politics, we need to ensure the canidates answer to the voters, not the corporations and rich.”

    “I agree!”

    “Here’s a company donating to the DNC, because money in politics is bad.”

    “Uh… what about Musk? Ever consider running for office costs money??”

    Hey guys this isn’t a good rebuttable. It just feels like corporations and SuperPACs are valid when you like who does it. Musk needs to be shoved out with Trump into a bottomless pit, but I personally don’t like it when my preferred party accepts corporate donors who will want favors later.

      Why is it only a crime when Democrats do it? Selective enforcement is incredibly damaging and calling that out is good.

        Yep, ban all money to all politicans. Anything else is pretending to be neutral when they accept money from evil.
