Musk made a post on X/Twitter stating- "My companies make great products that people love and I've never physically hurt anyone. So why the hate and violence against me? Because I am a deadly threat to the woke mind parasite and the humans it controls."
To which I would answer-- Intending to take away the lifeline from tens of millions of elderly and disabled will kill people. Social Security is not a ponzi scheme. It is social insurance that people have paid into. These are earned benefits that people count on for retirement. The money does not belong to you, Elon! It belongs to the people. Social Security also supports the disabled and kids who have lost a parent who supported them. Killing a program that might starve or even kill the elderly, the disabled, and children is evil. That is just one of many reasons why you are getting so much hate.
Oh, and your products are not so great. Cyber trucks have been recalled, what, eight times, and they are not selling at all. You need to wake up yourself and take a look in the mirror. You are not the great benefit to civilization that you think you are. You are making yourself an enemy of democracy and humanity. You should turn back while you can. Get out of our government and go back to your companies. And, yes, it is our government, not yours. Leave while you can.

(18,035 posts)Do you understand what I'm saying?" shouted Moist.
"You can't just go around killing people!"
"Why Not? You Do." The golem lowered his arm.
"What?" snapped Moist. "I do not! Who told you that?"
"I Worked It Out. You Have Killed Two Point Three Three Eight People," said the golem calmly.
"I have never laid a finger on anyone in my life, Mr Pump. I may be all the things you know I am, but I am not a killer! I have never so much as drawn a sword!"
"No, You Have Not. But You Have Stolen, Embezzled, Defrauded And Swindled Without Discrimination, Mr Lipvig. You Have Ruined Businesses And Destroyed Jobs. When Banks Fail, It Is Seldom Bankers Who Starve. Your Actions Have Taken Money From Those Who Had Little Enough To Begin With. In A Myriad Small Ways You Have Hastened The Deaths Of Many. You Do Not Know Them. You Did Not See Them Bleed. But You Snatched Bread From Their Mouths And Tore Clothes From Their Backs. For Sport, Mr Lipvig. For Sport. For The Joy Of The Game.

(24,763 posts)every chance they get. Jesus was the most woke, progressive, flaming liberal who ever trod this earth. He taught the active participation of Soul as a vital part of the God System at a time when he was surrounded by people who thought following their rules and regulations was all that was needed to fulfill God's demands of them. Christianity needs to shed the false dogma of vicarious atonement by Jesus. Nope. Jesus taught people how to save their eternal souls themselves.
