      Maybe for the people who feed off of their usual absurdisms, but not for anyone who can see past those to realize that they’re only reactionary and neither of them really has any lick of substance when they’re not actively arguing with people they don’t like

      I have a close family friend who isn’t very online. He was convinced Elons never made mistakes and is a galaxy brain alien. I filled him in.

      Also: People still believe Reagan was a great president. Propaganda works.

      So I can see a writer expecting a meeting of an ex President who says he’s amazing and Muskrat being the best that America has to offer.

    If these are two of the most powerful men on Earth, it’s surely time to jump on the next SpaceX rocket to Mars.

    That is a weird way to spell “get out the guillotines”

      I have no idea who first said it, but the idea of our norm changing away from capitalism in any meaningful way is so alien to people that they can imagine living on Mars in 5 years more readily then social change.

    A couple of rich assholes, one an immigrant, the other a son of an immigrant and father of some “anchor babies,” tell common folk how immigration is bad.
