If you expect court orders to end this coup, we have a long road ahead of us.

What if Fox News were to refer to Elon Musk as a South African immigrant working in the US government illegally?

#Meme #Memes #ElonMusk #FoxNews #Musk #Satire #Politics #USPol #US #USA #TechnoCoup

Meme with a tv news chyron across the bottom for FX News. Above is the text:
A South African immigrant, working in the government illegally, has taken control over the Department of Treasury, OPM, GSA, NOAA, and Health and Human Services.

He has already shut down USAID.
Which department will he shutter next?

The chryon reads: How will Elon Musk's techno-coup affect you?

I really wish that more journalists and newsletter writers would refer to #ElonMusk as a South African immigrant, rather than constantly referring to him as the richest man in the world.

Imagine if the headlines read:

"A South African Immigrant, Working in the Government Illegally, Has Taken Control over the Dept of Treasury, OPM, GSA, NOAA, and Health & Human Services."

Can a teen with the hacker handle, "Big Balls" and connections to Russia pass the background check necessary (supposedly) to work on the sensitive government software systems and databases that he's already accessing and changing?🤷‍♀️

This is not something I ever thought I would have to worry about. Yet, thanks to #Trump and the #GOP, here we are.

#Musk #Coup #Russia

"Despite this #history of failure, Americans haven’t shaken the hope that some benevolent, hyperrational leader... will step in to redesign the nation, to solve the problems that politicians can’t...

But in his short stay in Washington, #Musk has already evinced the same moral shortcoming that afflicted Hoover & McNamara, the same inability to calculate the costs of #cruelty.

[To Musk] #democracy is waste and inefficiency."

Text from article:
But in his short stay in Washington, Musk has already evinced the same moral shortcoming that afflicted Hoover and McNamara, the same inability to calculate the costs of cruelty. He has casually paused global aid programs that alleviate suffering; he has moved to destroy bureaucrats’ careers without concern for the rippling personal consequences. He has done this with an arrogance suffused with the spiritual self-certainity of Saint-Simon’s priestly caste of engineers. To a brain as rational as Musk’s, democracy is waste and inefficiency. The best system is the one bursting forth from his mind.

The Dictatorship of the Engineer:
The right claims to loathe technocracy—but it has empowered Elon Musk to remake the government.

"Elon Musk is dismantling the civil service and fulfilling an old dream... a yearning for a savior... This is a fantasy of submission...

even as the right purports to loathe #technocracy, it has empowered an engineer to radically remake the #American state"

No one elected Elon Musk.

Those who were elected (Senate and House) did NOT approve Elon Musk or his techbros taking over government agencies & their software systems & databases.

What #ElonMusk is doing is #illegal. He and his very young techbros are stealing control over the US #government in a sort of #TechnoCoup.

To translate for #Republicans:
A South African #immigrant is illegally working in the US government and stealing from you.

#StopTheSteal!

Red and black meme with a faceless image of Elon Musk on the left and, on the right, the following text:
Elon Musk is stealing from you!

Musk and his very young techbros are stealing control over US government systems so that THEY have control over your taxpayer money and NOT your elected officials.

A South African immigrant is stealing from you.

#StopTheSteal

@CMDoran

Indeed.

Elon Musk is stealing control of the US government and taxpayer money in some kind of #TechnoCoup.

And the #GOP who controls the White House, Senate and House are doing NOTHING to #StopTheSteal.

Elon Musk is completing his tech bro coup over democracy.

Every splatter of fecal matter like this from the firehose of bullshit which all media can’t stop profiting from is a distraction from the complete destruction of our democracy.

Go ahead - get everyone upset about each stupid action of the elected rapist felon - Just fucking light the US constitution on fire. Democracy is dead.

I’m not sure there are any democrat politicians left in Ohio. Pretty sure they have all been gerrymandered into switching parties to avoid being sent to the camps.

The modern echos of technology driven fascism are apparent to those paying attention to more than our digital bread and circuses controlling the brains of a bamboozleled nation - now fully engaged in a coup by the world’s premier oligarch and the racist political cult he’s adopted with his economic power over all of us.
