Not just Americans. I'm European and I'm mostly happy with what Elon is doing. Your point regarding people's data is well-taken, and people probably would be calling for the arrest of this same group if they were on the left. People are tribal animals. They're taking out CIA front groups and wokeness, so I'm happy. If they were spreading wokeness, I'd not be happy.
What I've learned in the past few years is that no one else holds to any principle. If the right does it too tightly, it just means that the right's losing streak will be permanent.
Why is it bad we know who has been given the keys to the kingdom?
It's used to try to intimidate these kids. Who are labeled as 'these boys', even though one of them was a member of a team that deciphered a 2000-year old scroll from Herculaneum.
Added that corporations people here hate like Amazon and Google are already cozying up to this administration.
As long as they cozy up to the admin, and do stuff like eliminate DEI, not the other way around, I'm OK with it.
The problem isn't that people are tribal. It's that they are gullible. Again, I remind everyone that Elon wants infinite Pajeets here. That would devastate our country even more than it is already. He's not even in our tribe.
That’s why it’s a good thing that he has been given this specific task of ferreting out fraud and waste. He might even come to realize that Indians aren’t the necessity he thought they were if American labor is unchained from its DEI anchors. But you’re right to stay vigilant against him and the civnats.
He wants Pajeets because they're cheap. They're cheap because the alternative for them is sleeping in piles of shit two feet from a train track back in India. Nothing is going to change his mind on that.
Elon might want any number of things. He's not going to get them. For me, the question is whether he's improving things or making things worse at the moment. That seems unquestionable.
On the contrary, it's very useful. If he eats you today, that's the end of you. If he'll eat you last, he's eating your enemies and giving you valuable time. That allows you to plot and plan for that eventuality, and prevent it.
More broadly, people are never going to agree with me 100% of the time. To achieve anything, I have to make common cause with people who don't, and support them for as long as they serve my purposes.
Note how Vance backed the guy who said "normalize Indian hate", even though his wife is a "Pajeet".

I'm more of a long term thinker. Jeffrey Dahmer being nice to me isn't useful if he is only doing it so he can kill and eat me later.

I thought you just lived in Europe. Have the other posters been lying to me?
No, they were correct in that I'm ethnically Middle Eastern.
