Today the German parliament voted for an unconstitutional request by the CDU/CSU. The CDU is, according to surveys, the strongest party for the upcoming election. I have to say that I am ashamed of those voting either for the CDU/CSU or AfD which have a strange urge for fascism.
Trump, President for one week, does more damage to the economy, national security, and international goodwill than all the other presidents combined. Amazing work MAGA.
I rarely, if ever, put my personal political views up like I'm about to do here. Just not my cup of tea. And I know for certain some people are going to take issue with said opinion purely just due to the nature of this community, and that's fine;
This is getting BAD. Musk's involvement (if you can even call it that) in his companies has been continually poising their public perception due to his questionable actions. Personally I am not a fan of Musk or his ideologies at all, so this may be slightly biased but I think needs to be said and considered. We're reaching a tipping point now. This is beyond simply public perception. His actions are actually harming the operations of the companies themselves too.
It's so difficult to put this into words that make sense but I think it's far past time for him to step down, be it from specifically SpaceX and/or all of his companies. I know this post won't do anything on that regard. But it's worth it to raise awareness on at least some of the major problems.
We're at the point where the quoted post below depicts the perception of the majority of the population. This not only is directly counterintuitive to the mission of the company (to inspire and explore, or whatever other philosophical jargon you could think of) but is also incredibly demoralizing to both fans of the projects but the people who work to make those projects happen.
There's been several internal conflicts over this topic in the past few years, even a few (failed) coups. Something must change, y'all. This has been a thing for a few years now and it's only going to get worse.
Hope y'all still stick around after this. Some things may be worded weirdly here as it is sometimes difficult to dance around topics like this. Likely never posting about politics again lol but I believe that this needs to be said. Because like, man. Just look at that photo. What has this all come to?
BREAKING: Wir haben Elon Musks Hitlergruß auf seine Tesla-Gigafactory projiziert. Jetzt ermittelt die Staatsanwaltschaft – wegen Anfangsverdacht des Verwendens von Kennzeichen verfassungswidriger Organisationen. Sie sieht wohl doch einen Hitlergruß! https://t.co/Z6iL1W21y4
In Italy people created an art exhibit displaying a garbage filled Musk decorating a fence at Piazzale Loreto where coincidentally Mussolini's body was displayed in 1945.
What did the Italians mean by this?🤔
