The concept of armored Teslas for bureaucrats is peak late-stage capitalism. Electric luxury cars wrapped in taxpayer-funded armor while public infrastructure crumbles—nothing embodies regulatory capture quite like Musk’s dual role as welfare king and austerity enforcer.
The State Department’s sudden backtrack reeks of panic. Deleting “Tesla” from the document after public outrage? Classic bureaucratic sleight-of-hand. They’ll rebrand it, repackage it, but the corporate handout remains the same.
Musk’s tweet feigning ignorance is laughable. SpaceX’s $22B in contracts proves the grift is systemic. When oligarchs write policy, conflicts of interest aren’t bugs—they’re features.
Trump gutting Biden’s EV mandates while funneling cash to Musk’s ventures? A masterclass in hypocrisy. The “free market” only exists until it’s time to subsidize billionaire vanity projects.
To be honest “late stage capitalism” doesn’t even really describe it anymore. We’re in the endgame now.
Wow. Well-said, no notes.
Meowmeowbeanz? More like meowmeowbased.
Meh, SpaceX got those contracts because they’re good at what they do.
Please don’t cancel it. I want to see the inevitable headline that will result from occupiers and department of war ghouls riding in the firetrap unbreakable machine.
it would just turn into the F35 project with a constantly ballooning cost and a ever lengthening delivery deadline.
Also known as the California hyperloop
It’s just a grift so I doubt that will happen unfortunately. They’re just going to be used for military parades, Elon will have one with humongous fascist flags on the front, and the rest will sit rusting in some field on an army base.
Yeah, but funding the USPS to have new electric delivery vehicles is not OK. What a bunch of fucking hypocrites
Well Elon didn’t make the mail trucks, obviously.
Alarm! We are 10 years out before our military looks like current day Russia’s.
For info in bullet tests a Swastikar can stop a handgun. But any decent caliber rifle goes right through.
Personally I think the us should replace all their military vehicles with explosive telslas
lol the grift
Not allowing President Elon Musk cut Childhood Education and Cancer Prevention so he can funnel himself $400000000 is WOKE DEI SOCIALISM!
A lot of republicans are saying this new administration is amazing because we’re getting rid of wasteful spending and will finally have less debt now.
By explosive outcry, they mean another cyber truvk blew up somewhere. Elon is building samsung tesla autocar bombs.
Imagine losing a bunch of foreign dignitaries because a software update failed and they all got trapped inside and slowly suffocated to death while first responders tried to cut through armor.
Pretty sure adding a couple hundred pounds of armor would snap its suspension.
You definitely can’t tow anything with them
Aw cmon guys, they’re just trying to funnel that money into the pocket of one of our new oligarchs. What’s the big deal?
Someone was literally arguing that they removed "tesla* from the papers but that it was always going to order electric vehicles, and theyre just removing it for the woke idiots who see collusion everywhere.
I don’t think theyll ever understand oligarchy, to them it’s completely normal to take advantage of your power, Trump convinced them it means youre smarter.
Gonna be a long 4 years, that’s if they ever allow democratic elections ever again. Luckily cheeto will croak soon, so he won’t be able to perpetuate his reign like Putin does but someone else might pick up for him.
Luckily cheeto will croak soon
Not holding my breath.
I’m more and more convinced every day that the devil does exist, and the ruling class has signed infernal contracts that prolong their lives.
I’m convinced this is the bad place. This feels like some demons attempt at sustainable farming. The shear level of frustration alone is mental torture but not enough to break a person…yet.
He has a litter of wretched offspring that will no doubt try to continue the dynasty
But collectively they have the charisma of a wet paper bag, and their father’s smarts [hahaha]. I also don’t think they could solidify control over the whole cult, and without the cult R’s are going to move on.
4 years
