That the World’s Richest Man –a South African ineligible to run for office himself– is trying to buy the US election, promised his own federal department to guarantee contracts, should be enough to make people do the exact opposite of what he’s asking them to do. ‘Show Elon that American Democracy isn’t for sale: vote Kamala, whichever party you back’. Will that campaign emerge in these last few weeks? Or does he somehow win this using the dirtiest disinfo and propaganda tricks we know of?

If you live in a swing state, this is the best odds lottery you can ever possibly play. I doubt there are more than 10-20 thousand people signing per-day and the pot is $1mn.

@cjd may it backfire spectacularly, as the winners use their publicity to back Kamala - or if Musk tries to stop this by pre-screening, of his name being tied to fraud.

@cjd most of his arguments for Trump so far have sounded full k-hole ‘perilous chapel’ type paranoid, ie about the end of democracy/the constitution. But I guess he’s got someone to write this one.

To you, but remember you're not the person he's aiming to convince. He's probably aiming to convince someone who LIKES Trump but isn't motivated to go and vote, so the call to action is to feel empowered, feel like you matter, and feel like it's important to go and do it.

Absolutely no idea, but if I were to guess I'd say it'll probably be a centrist, but they'll just be put up against a wall so they really have no options except follow the plan.Remember, this is Thiel/Musk/etc they're not amateurs at The Game.

The question you should be asking is who are going to be the big losers. The way you balance the books is someone has to get chopped up. Start looking through major banks and checking political alignment of their top management.

By my calculous, there is a way the Great Reset story still makes sense with Kamala winning - but that's a massive civil war taking the US off the world stage and Russia / China taking leadership position through the UN.I don't think that's very likely, but it's realistic enough to go on the threat board.

The thing nobody understood about this whole election fraud / lawfair shit is it's a VERY unequal battle.It's like the war between Israel and Hamas. It starts small, they go back and forth, and people lose sight of the fact that Israel can 100% wipe Hamas off the earth.For Elon and company, the "nuclear option" is kidnap the families of the secretary of state and voting machine company and just tell them whose gonna win. Then Trump wins, fires the DOJ, and everything is forgotten.They won't do this, just like Israel won't nuke Gaza. But the fact that with their money/connections/power, they COULD, basically means the election is decided.There was a time when people who could do that wouldn't - but that was before 2020 and 2000 Mules. Whether YOU believe the 2020 election was stolen doesn't make one iota of difference, what matters is that Big People, with money and power and assassins believe it was stolen, that's the ONLY thing that matters.The 2024 election is basically a quiet civil war, so you can just look at the physical muscle of the participants and know in advance who is going to win.

The thing is, you don't start a civil war over cheap gas. The cost of a war, and the collateral damage from one, is orders of magnitude greater than whatever profit you might make from higher gas prices.But what happened between 2020 and now was not like a dispute over energy policy. You have one team rigging the election and then using the state apparatus to incessantly prosecute the other team in order to destroy them.And may I reiterate, whether YOU think 2020 was rigged, or whether YOU think they used the DOJ to destroy their enemies doesn't matter worth a damn. All that matters is what Musk/Thiel/etc think, and I guarantee you every one of those guys sat down and watched 2000 Mules, and then sent their assistants to double-check some of the claims.In politics as in poker. You play competitively following certain agreed-upon rules. Anyone can break those rules at any time, but if you get caught, well, you meet Mr. Saturday Night Special.

Are they not WEF members?Did WEF not promote Great Reset?Suddenly something comes which has a realistic chance of actually resetting the system and you think Great Reset is somehow off the menu?Just because Klaus Schwab doesn't personally stand up there and shout in your ear "Yes, this is the guy, he's the one that's going to do it."

@cjd Caleb, help me out. You’re not daft, you made CJDNS. But there’s dozens of sworn witnesses who’ve taken death threats & online attacks to state Trump tried to steal 2016. De Souza’s film has how many named and sworn witnesses to back up its claims? If it was true where are the court cases? It’s whataboutery propaganda - like this Musk-funded ‘Progress 2028’ set up to deflect from Project 2025. Do you really believe what you’re saying, or is this about your crypto investments?

I don't really have any crypto investments, I lost the keys to my BTC a few years ago. I have a small crypto project that's not worth much, I'm trying to create an autonomous cjdns network out of it but it's an up-hill battle.Everything is an uphill battle in this economy, government prints money and uses it to hire political loyalists, then this causes more inflation making everyone else poorer.Now about 2000 Mules, you have your opinion and I have mine - neither of us can say we really know any of this for a FACT, it could all be Plato's Cave. But between the more-or-less incontrovertible surveillance videos, and the numeric irregularities, I think it's more likely than not that 2020 was stolen.If you want to know my politics, well, the only presidential candidate I've ever really been excited about was Ron Paul. But alas, they ran 12 people against him to split the vote and make sure he couldn't win. I'm still not over Bush's opiate epidemic, normalization of torture, and general destruction of the American lifestyle. And I'm also not over Clinton's WTO and NAFTA gutting the American economy.I have vague childhood memories of the 90s, and to imagine a person living in that era and saying "yeah, lets send all the factories to China, lets create the Patriot Act and normalize torture, then we'll start endless wars, print 30Tn$ and create an opioid epidemic".Mere public execution is far too kind for these people.So what do I think of Trump? Well, the people who destroyed the country I grew up in all seem terrified of him, so that's about the best endorsement anyone can give.If he stands a chance of shutting down the federal government, that's even better.But who knows how things will really end up, a person like you or I have very little chance of influencing anything, the best we can hope for is to try to predict where things are heading and get out in front of them.I'd rather be trying to build something in a We're Going To Mars world than try to carve out some niche for myself in a multi-century long Fall of Rome timeline where everything keeps getting just a tiny bit worse every year.

[FWIW I don’t get why crypto is bullish on Trump. The dollar is central to US global influence & strength. No President, even him, will risk weakening that, regardless what he’s promised. But more importantly, the big emerging use for crypto is cross-border payments; bedrock of the web economy. For that to work there needs to be a sound –not cowboy/libertarian– regulatory space. EMEA will be v happy to fill the gap if US goes rogue, just like China did when he retreated from the Green economy.]

Anyone believing Musk's career mission statement, should read that.> government prints money and uses it to hire political loyalistsMusk has $bns in govt contracts, is spending less than that to get Trump elected, & is promised his own dept to funnel more contracts to his empire. If this was a 3rd world country people wd be wowed; instead it's just 'content'.

> we're not settling MarsI remember when electric cars were universally considered to be unrealistic.I remember when full-flow staged combustion was a dream that the soviets tried to achieve but couldn't figure out, and it was thought to be impossible.It was just a couple years ago that nobody gave satellite internet a second thought, it was just assumed that it would always be "slow expensive backup". Now it turns out that low orbit and beamforming technology can do more than anyone thought, and with the potential for inter-satellite laser connections, the future economics ANY fiber infrastructure is called into question.---"we're not settling Mars" is a totally legitimate statement, when the "we" is a civilization that abandoned the Saturn V to build the "Space Shuttle" (which wasn't a shuttle in any meaningful sense of the word), and then realized it was too expensive, but only after they'd lost the competency to build the Saturn V, so they just gave up.And it's not like society just gave up on space, they gave up on everything. Cheap nuclear energy, flying cars, robot maids, cancer cures. All of these things were "within reach" in the 1960s, but around 1971 humanity just stopped trying.Now you can call me an Elon fanboy, but this is a guy who managed to pull off engineering feats that I did not think were possible, multiple times now. And these were real tangible things which changed the course of human history. So if I have to pick his civilization or yours, no offense but I'm going with him.

@cjd as for the fraud question tbh I'd have to watch the film, rather than just respond to what I've read about it, & then I'd probably need to read a bunch more things to have that debate. But like most things that folk want to believe are conspiracy I come back to 'if the government was that competent as to be able pull such a wild thing off, why is everything else such a mess?'Take this debate back a few years & maybe we'd agree that in a neoliberal capitalist democracy neither candidate…

…is likely to be much different. About the best you can hope is they hold up the law & don't do anything drastic they'd never said they would (e.g. repeal Roe/Wade via a stacked Supreme Court). But Trump has now promised to do many dictatory things (lock up his enemies and critics, round up & deport non-naturalised Americans, control the press, drill-baby-drill, hand Putin & Netanyah whatever they want, ntm Project 2025 & 'rule as a dictator day 1) where's the win? It *does* sound terrifying.

> Roe/WadeAs a Libertarian I think bodily autonomy should be absolute, but I also think the federal government should not be passing laws which override what the voters in a state want to do. Now Roe v. Wade wasn't even a law, it was a tortured interpretation of the phrase "nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law". This is supposed to prohibit things like detainment without charge, or civil forfeiture. Of course it doesn't, because there's another tortured interpretation to justify those too.You would be astounded at how much of the US government is just obviously illegal, and only exists because some judge in the 1930s invented a new definition of a word so that the constitution doesn't mean what any normal person would agree it means. So when this crap gets rolled back, you're never going to convince me that it's a bad thing, even if I don't like the consequences.> stacked Supreme CourtThis was just normal judge nominations, don't let MSNBC mess with your mind.> lock up his enemiesLOL if you don't want me to like him, don't go telling me he's gonna lock up the feds. I'm an Irish blooded Libertarian / Anarchist. ACAB, only good fed is a dead fed 🏴.Anyway these people don't have clean hands, they went after him with their 4 year long parade of flimsy prosecutions over such things as "misclassifying a payment". Moreover, these goons and goobers are the same people who presided over the slow death of the American dream. He could send the whole government to the front line in Ukraine and I'd throw a party.> control the pressOn the hierarchy of scum, regime media is not AS low as the actual goons, but they're about the next level. I stopped reading any kind of "mainstream news" after the Iraq invasion in 2003 when they all, including the NY Times, lined up behind Bush's WMD story. In retrospect, the story was so obviously fake that even a marginally qualified newspaper should have been able to suss it out. So the fact that they all lined up behind it was the tip to me that they're not real, and I wasn't about to be made a fool of twice.Now in my idealized world, the freedom of the press would be absolute, but that's not the world we live in. Most people agree that it was right for Alex Jones to be financially destroyed for claiming the Sandy Hook shooting was fake. But the harm he did to the victims is MINUSCULE compared to the harm that came downstream of the NYT's lying that lead the US into Iraq. And it's not just in 2003, they do this all of the time. From outright lies, to manipulative presentation, to "opinion" pieces advocating for the demolition of everything that made civilization what it is today.All you need to do is search the phrase "You don't hate journalists enough" on twitter to see their disgusting portfolio. Articles SO shameless that the headline became a meme unto itself. These people have the moral compass of an earth worm, and defending them on 1st Amendment grounds is as classy as defending the human rights of a child molester. Trump can feed them to a pack of lions for all I care.> hand Putin & Netanyah whatever they wantPutin is like Rothschild for boomers, everything they don't like is somehow connected. But anybody who believes Trump is some kind of a Putin puppet needs to square that with the fact that Putin himself actually endorsed Kamala.Now you might say "well, he's lying for reverse psychology", and sure, that's plausible. But recently Trump was accused of sending COVID tests to Russia in 2020. Trump denied it, but who substantiated it? Putin. So if this guy wants to get Trump elected, why on earth would he be substantiating rumors which make Trump look bad?In terms of actual square miles of land gained, the best presidents for Putin have been Obama and Biden. So the only way I can see someone concluding Trump is "soft" on Putin is if they have no critical thinking capabilities of their own, and just believe whatever drivel comes out of the regime media.---So you're asking me why I like the guy, but everything you have to say reads like an endorsement ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

@cjd not sure he pulled them off, he hired/bought smart people who did. I'm ok calling him the Edison of our generation - but like Edison - he's the entrepreneur and showman, not the inventor.Anyway, read the article - don't need to explain how we get a magnetosphere, oxygen or better temperature than the South Pole, but given the cost to get to that point (the article estimates 500,000 yrs best case) – explain why, when we have an enviably nice planet, threatened mostly by 'drill-baby-drill'.

@cjd ps (frustrated by my shorter char count here) but I love your graph - it hits the nail on the head of the bonkers era we've lived thru where GDP grows but wages stay flat from late 70s, as the planet heats up exponentially triggering increasingly extreme weather.Am I right in thinking you're saying what triggered this decoupling of wage & GDP growth is the end of serious space investment?

This was an intentional matter of policy. See: https://wtfhappenedin1971.com/The "moment" was the de-coupling of the USD from gold, but everything which followed can be traced back to politicians printing money and then systematically destroying, looting, and devaluing the wealth of the nation so that the value of everything else would fall in line with the devaluing dollar.This is exquisitely documented in Ammous's book The Bitcoin Standard.

Everything that I've heard has been the opposite. He is a trained physicist, and if nothing else he does know the difference between what's possible and what probably isn't.That's evident from the fact that he chose to pursue electric cars and Full-flow staged combustion, rather than (for example) anti-gravity, quantum entanglement communication, or a space elevator. This might seem trivial, but recall that SpinLaunch raised $150 million on a concept that has worse G-forces than just firing satellites out of a cannon.

@cjd @nicol >I remember when electric cars were universally considered to be unrealistic.They still are. They only exist to solve some non-problem (man-made climate change) by creating something more environmentally destructive (mining lithium). Even if man-made climate change and peak oil are real there are better ways to approach the problem. Stanley Meyer (the real entrepreneur that we needed) tried to solve that problem himself, but he was murdered by the government.>Cheap nuclear energyEveryone who has claimed to have discovered it, died mysteriously. It's clear that the government is trying to suppress that technology. It won't happen unless this current system is either overthrown or reformed. Same with any other technology that will actually benefit us rather than suppress us.>cancer curesRecently, people have claimed that ivermectin and fenbendazole can cure cancer or are at least much more effective at treating it.

@xianc78 @cjd @nicolThey have really good torque, can't put that back in the bag. Hybrids at minimum just for that.

@cvnt @cjd @nicol Hybrids are fine, I guess, but I think the real solution (if man-made climate change and peak oil are real) would be something like Stanley Meyer's water-fuel cell. Also, I don't think there is a single Tesla vehicle that doesn't have any smart-car crap.

@xianc78 @cvnt @cjd @nicol IIRC the original roadster lacked the smart car crap but it was also essentially part Lotus part original EV system. Even then, any smart car using 3g now has nonfunctioning smart functionality, including older Model Ses with obsolete modems. https://www.tesla.com/support/3g-cellular-network-retirement

@cvnt @xianc78 @cjd @nicol yeah electric motors are no joke, that's why locomotives use a diesel generator to drive an electric motor. The problem is that if you use a cybertruck to tow as an example, the real issue is that the range absolutely sucks. Some YouTuber did a test, it'll out tow a Cummins in a mountain at higher speeds, but then your battery is absolutely drained from doing so while the Cummins can go farther on a single tank. EVs are never going to replace diesel or gas trucks, period. It's more likely you'll see gas engines in big trucks due to the lower maintenance costs.

@cjd Hmm… you're a technolibertarian anarchist AND a Musk v2024 admirer?He bought the world's public square, the water cooler where most of the press, politicians & academics hang. And he used that immense power for what? To reinstate neo-Nazis & block liberal journalists he disagrees with (https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2024/jan/15/elon-musk-hypocrite-free-speech)? And now uses it to campaign hard for Trump & attack govts who don't support his biz interests (UK, Brazil & Australia), inflaming riots in the UK's case?How does this square up?

Surely his genius would see The Web's Public Square shouldn't pick a President based on the feels of its owner?Wouldn't anyone distrustful of authority have to draw a line at this point? When the world's richest man has purchased significant memetic influence in countries he knows little of, then uses that to troll their leaders at 3am via deeply partisan tweets that seem inspired by the most recent fringe voices who've complimented him? This isn't shuttles re-landing, this is mid-life crisis.

See you don't understand, I'm not someone pretending to be an anarchist because it's cool, I ACTUALLY want to smash the state.Imagine Russia is your enemy, and Trump is running for office in Russia, wouldn't you support him?If your answer is yes then you already understand me.

@cjd man that’s like punching yourself in the face to cure a headache.When he wasn’t putting kids in cages at the border, he was calling police attacking protestors a “beautiful thing to watch”, while his administration executed more than any in 120 years. This time he’s said he’d use the military on ‘the enemy within’, promised to roll back Biden's limits on police use of violence – and says he'll expand the death penalty & mass-incarceration. ACAB libertarian… really?

@cjd all the more reason not to punch yourself in the face.Ignoring the dissonance of responding to too much government (if that's your diagnosis) by handing it to someone with Strong Dictator Vibes: what is it you think he'll do he just couldn't do last time?In the UK during Brexit, Lexiters told folk the chaos caused by leaving the EU would unravel capitalism. It just made it stronger & inequality bigger. Same with 45 no? Income inequality grew faster than in 20 yrs https://thehill.com/opinion/finance/535239-how-trump-fueled-economic-inequality-in-america/

The concept of cancer is that it's SO BAD that you're willing to inject a literal poison into your veins in the hope that it dies before you do.I think it's not landing for you, that when I say "I want to smash the state", I'm not saying it to sound edgy, I'm 100% dead serious.

@cjd so you gamble risk of fascist dictatorship on a hope he breaks everything?And on the other side? The guys with the most weapons fight it out? The world has plenty of failed states where a flawed govt is replaced by battling militias/despots ruling via fear and/or fanaticism.(Only modern exception I can think of is the Rohjava in Syria. But they're organised, united, & had a figurehead Öcalan who'd read Murray Bookchin in prison. Plus, ironically, funding from the US army to fight ISIL)

> so you gamble risk of fascist dictatorshipThat risk is fundamental to ANY revolution. If I wasn't comfortable with the risk, I wouldn't tell you I want to smash the state.> But this time it's different, this time it's *really* badIf you ask the incumbents, of course it is. They're at risk of losing their power so they can be relied upon the cry wolf as loudly as possible.
