Rather bemused to watch the confluence of American progressive politics, racial politics, neo-orientalism, Silicon Valley techno-optimism, and classical populism converge on a faulty recognition of the greatness of China today, a country that’s far from progressive, deeply unjust for the non-Han races, often more occidental than oriental, freely experiments with dystopian technologies (such as facial surveillance and robot combat policemen), and is not the explanation of everything that’s gone wrong in America for the past 30 years. America amazes me everyday for simultaneously having the world’s largest wealth, attracting the best brainpowers from virtually every country on earth, with the greatest body of experts on China, and still capable of committing a rose-tinted confusion on China at this scale. There’s almost a refreshing naivety that makes one feel compelled to withhold the more brutal truths, just as an adult would not want to break the world’s sad reality to a tender child. Yet, as a superpower, America is denied the luxury of genuine ignorance. Given the availability of answers, any ignorance America commits is eventually an act of willful choices, whose mistakes will regrettably drag the world along to face the consequences together.

Tens of thousands of acres of Amazon rainforest destroyed to build gigantic highway for UN Climate Change summit attended by world leaders. Thousands of trees were cut down from protected areas of the Amazon to build a four-lane highway to the COP30 summit hosted this month in the city of Belém, Brazil. The UN climate conference held in Brazil claims to tackle ‘global warming’ and climate change including tackling issues like deforestation. Source: BBC

Person creates company Person owns company Company becomes worth billions because it does a good job The Left: “HOW DID SOMEONE LET HIM DO THIS!?”

Man I’m so glad we took the time to sit down and finally do the research. There’s certainly no way we could have known that men are naturally stronger than women otherwise..

SOCIALISM ISN’T ABOUT EQUALITY - IT’S ABOUT ENVY, CONTROL & UTOPIAN NONSENSE Turns out, utopia sounds great until someone has to pay for it, and it’s always you, never the self-appointed planners in charge. What’s the plan for enforcing the socialist paradise? Estate confiscation, international tax police, and a total erasure of market freedom, all dressed up in the language of "fairness." Cute. Funny how the people who preach about "equality" always seem to end up in charge of deciding who gets what, and it’s never equal. This isn’t just clueless idealism, it’s warmed-over 20th-century disaster. We’ve seen this movie before. It ends with empty shelves, secret police, and “comrades” turning in neighbors for thoughtcrimes. Socialism doesn't lift the poor, it drags everyone down to the same miserable level, enforced by the same bitter elite who claim to "liberate" you… as long as you obey. If you want family, freedom, and a future for your kids, don’t envy success, build your own. That’s not capitalism’s flaw. That’s its promise. Source: Peter Sean Bradley

Every race has owned slaves, but White people are the only ones who have fought a war to end slavery. But somehow we’re the only ones who get blamed for it

The left-wing anti-Elon propaganda machine locked in like a well-oiled machine. It’s a shame they can’t apply even a fraction of that efficiency to something crazy, like actually making this country a better place for American citizens.

This was from Coke’s diversity training. They instructed employees to “be less white” Seems @CocaCola still has a major anti-white racism problem.

A few Alaska Tesla things. -I routinely get compliments on my 2020 Model X. People particularly like the interior. -People ask me if it works in the cold and snow (uh…..how do you think I got here…) -People ask how long the battery lasts (as if they need to be replaced all the time) -People ask how I charge it -People ask how it handles in the snow. It’s really been great here for 3+ years and Tesla continues to add superchargers and we have a service center. Battery is at 90% at 70k miles. This is the second windshield….

It’s amazing how many people think they’re owed something simply for existing, as if another person’s productivity creates a moral claim on their life. They see someone who built more, created more, or earned more, and instead of asking how did they do it, they ask how do I get a piece of it without doing the work. And here’s the irony: Almost everything people praise the government for giving them is actually subsidized by the very people they resent. The rich aren’t hurting the poor. They’re the ones creating the jobs, investment, infrastructure, and the rising quality of goods that get cheaper and better over time. Without that wealth creation, there’s nothing to tax, nothing to distribute, nothing to run programs with. But socialists and communists never cared about helping the poor. If they did, they'd advocate for what actually lifts people out of poverty: productivity, innovation, trade, ownership, and freedom. Their goal isn’t to raise the bottom. It’s to pull down the top. Not to empower the poor, but to punish the successful. Envy dressed up as morality. Resentment masquerading as justice. When your moral standard is “no one is allowed to have more than me,” the end point isn’t equality, it’s universal poverty. A race to the bottom, sold as compassion.

How Elon Musk looks at commies crying about his pay package

If Elon unlocks the full $1 trillion he will have created ~$6.4 trillion for other people. This is the positive-sum nature of capitalism that socialists don’t understand or more likely refuse to accept. He’ll also have paid Tesla employees $70b+ in payroll and tens of billions in taxes. A huge net positive for society.

You've thrown around a lot of claims without a single verifiable number. Let us get serious and look at facts. Neuralink and The Boring Company aren't "nothing burgers". Neuralink is already in FDA approved human trials, a stage most medical startups never reach. The Boring Company built and operates a functioning tunnel system in Las Vegas with more under development. Early stage doesn't mean imaginary. SpaceX isn't living off taxpayers. It's the world's most reliable launch provider, flying astronauts and cargo to the ISS under paid NASA contracts. Starships lunar lander is part of the Artemis program, delayed yes, but active and funded. "Never" isn’t a fact, it's wishful thinking. Tesla's valuation debate doesn’t erase what it has achieved. It leads the global EV market, has some of the highest margins in the auto industry, and forced every legacy manufacturer to follow. The stock price reflects future tech bets, that's how markets work. Tesla Energy uses supplier cells, true, but it designs the packs, software, and grid scale systems that utilities actually deploy. Integration and scale are the value, not the raw cells. FSD is Level 2 by law, but it's trained on billions of real world miles and no competitor has that data. The Tesla Bot is a prototype, but so were reusable rockets once. Laughing at early tech usually doesnt age well. And Musk? Call him what you want, but reusable orbital rockets, regular crewed launches, and the world's leading EV company aren't built by idiots. Over optimistic sometimes, absolutely. Stupid? Not even close. Criticism is healthy. Denying progress because you dislike the man isn't logic, it's emotion. When you have data that actually disproves these results, bring it. Until then, facts win.

Blame is the bait. Dependency is the hook.

"What I care about is the reality of goodness, not the perception of it. And what I see all over the place is people who care about LOOKING good, while DOING evil. F*ck them." - Elon Musk

You are a taker, not a maker. All you’ve done your whole life is take from the makers of the world. The zero-sum mindset you have is at the root of so much evil. Once you realize that civilization is not zero-sum and that it is about making far more than one consumes, then it becomes obvious that the path to prosperity for all is just let the makers make. Regarding Tesla, the reality is that I have been given nothing. However, if I lead Tesla to become the most valuable company in the world by far and it stays that way for 5 years, shareholders voted to award me 12% of what is built. Anyone who wants to come along for the ride can buy Tesla stock. If Tesla “merely” becomes a $1.999 trillion dollar company, I get nothing. This is a great deal for shareholders, which is why they voted so overwhelmingly to approve this, for which I am immensely grateful. And they did so by a margin far more than you won your political seat.
