    Pete faked benching like 300 pounds or something with some enlisted people. The weights were not normal but like ten pounders made to look like the big ones.

    Pete Hegseth, is a pussy bitch. Pass it on.

    Because appointing him head of DOGE was so successful… This is the absolutely dumbest fucking timeline possible.

    … thus proving he is both equally, and exponentially dumber than himself.

    Yeah, being a CEO is clearly not the full-time job that requires marathon-level endurance that the Acela class likes to paint it as.

      He’s the CEO of five companies. If he really works 100 hours a week like he says (and maybe ketamine does make that possible), that means being a CEO is at best a part-time job.

      Somehow Musk has time to shitpost on Twitter for hours, run the US military and be the CEO of like 5 companies. Guess he saves a lot of time by not spending any time with his children.

      It’s always been about returning to the indentured servitude and elite wealthy man controlled world that was temporarily interrupted with an experiment in civil rights, workers rights, women’s rights, etc.

      They figured out all they had to do was pause progress in the economic sector for all the minority groups that benefited from those movements, and drastically and continually increase the funneling of resources and profits into the hands of the one group that used to control and own it all, making it only a matter of time until we returned to the good old days.

    Also Palmer Luckey just flying under the radar (beneath the bloated corpse-like Hindenberg of Musk’s profile).

    I suppose Luckey should have been the first horseman of the tech apocalypse, since back in pre-timeline-flip 2016 he was bragging about spending to elect Trump via shitposting, back when we all at least still thought Musk was sane( r ).
