@DineshDSouza Paper millionaires.
SpaceX has NEVER made a profit in its 24 years.
It lost $4.9 billion last year.
SpaceX increased its debt load to about $23 billion at the end of 2025 from $14 billion in 2024.
@simonmaechling Dream on.
Radiation on the surface of Mars is roughly 40 to 50 times higher than on Earth.
Exposure on Mars can lead to acute radiation sickness, increase cancer risks, and damage the central nervous system.
Feed Earth's people first.
@kat_maryb Which liberals have said that they are entitled to Musk's money?
If you think that being expected to pay the proper amount of taxes is entitlement, you have no idea what taxes are used for.
@FaraiMazhindu Musk has absolutely zero interest in South Africa or any other part of Africa.
He could have returned after 1994 if he only left because he didn't want to be conscripted.
He didn't return.
Musk's first action in DoGE was to cut USAID immediately, affecting the lives of millions.
@AP Trump thinks that eliminating one leader will collapse an empire. It never has and never will. There are always other people who will take over the leadership.
Destroy the plantations, labs, and factories.
โWhen our genes could not store all the information necessary for survival, we slowly invented brains. But then the time came, perhaps ten thousand years ago, when we needed to know more than could conveniently be contained in brains. So we learned to stockpile enormous quantities of information outside our bodies. We are the only species on the planet, so far as we know, to have invented a communal memory stored neither in our genes nor in our brains. The warehouse of that memory is called the library.
A book is made from a tree. It is an assemblage of flat, flexible parts (still called โleavesโ) imprinted with dark pigmented squiggles. One glance at it and you hear the voice of another person - perhaps someone dead for thousands of years. Across the millennia, the author is speaking, clearly and silently, inside your head, directly to you. Writing is perhaps the greatest of human inventions, binding together people, citizens of distant epochs, who never knew one another. Books break the shackles of time, proof that humans can work magic.โ

@CNN UFC = Roman Gladiator spectacle.
Blood, guts, and gore to entertain the masses and keep their minds off the fact that they are dependent on the state for food "doles".
The Roman Empire collapsed due to political instability, severe economic crises, and administrative overreach.
