God... American beer...

You aren't doing green text right if you don't call everything fake and gay, even if it's true and straight

This isn't a random person lol, but yes

Well, alright. I just don't think you should make definitive statements based on speculation considering how many stupid people will take that as fact, but to each their own. Just my own opinion.

That's just like, your opinion, man.

In all seriousness though, Michael Waltz being informed the bombs had dropped and responding with "👊🇺🇸🔥" seemed the opposite of presentable to me. That's something my retired tradesman father would text me if his football team won the Superbowl, not something that is appropriate or presentable to the eyes of the American populace after killing a bunch of brown people in Yemen.

Hard disagree. If you read the signal transcripts, it sounded like frat boys planning a bombing run.. highly unprofessional.

I think it's also a good idea to state this is your opinion, and is not, in fact, "100% arranged and intentional". We don't need more misinformation spread around.

Horrible thought that so much of the population is that fucking stupid

Try being a Warhammer 40k enjoyer. Some people forget that humanity are STILL BAD GUYS in 40k.

Classic Lemmy downvoting shit they don't like to hear when it's true.

I fucking hate Joe Rogan and think he's a total cunt, especially as of late, but at the beginning of the pandemic and prior, he did have some great guests like Michael Osterholm.

Gold medal for your performance in mental gymnastics.

Just my 2 cents, and echoing some of the sentiment in this thread.

IMO, if he's buying Telsa stock, it doesn't make your buddy a Nazi, or even a Nazi sympathizer. He's just a guy making money in a capitalist system. It is what it is, and I'm not going to blame anyone for trying to make money where they can. I have friends in the same situation, making money off Telsa, and also despising Elon as a person. I don't hold it against them, everyone needs to find a way to support themselves. You aren't going to sewer your own financials just to be morally superior, because that's going to be a net loss, and it's pissing into the wind in terms of fighting the system.

If he's overtly supporting Elon himself, that's a different story, but it sounds like he just is making bank off the stock, will ride it out as it's in his best interest, and there isn't much cause for concern.

Again, like other commenters have said, just talk to him. Make him aware you understand he likes Tesla, but ask him if he supports Elon politically/ethically. Make your decisions based off of that. A lot can be accomplished with just a casual conversation. I wouldn't recommend talking to him with an accusatory or defensive standpoint. I would be pretty casual about it to see where he sits.

Good luck friend. It's nasty out there.

I can provide no further information that is going to help you see the point.

God speed.
