It's pretty remarkable how much Elon's Twitter takeover is a textbook fascist takeover: leftists immediately purged, censorship regime imposed behind the scenes, secret police rooting out enemies, right wing terrorism supported by the state, etc and how uncannily similar the mainstream liberal response of pretending nothing is wrong is, even with *very low* costs of walking out the door and refusing to collaborate.

So much talk about Elon Muskβs wealth drop off in the last 12 months due to a downturn in market pressures as well as other economic, labour and manufacturing problems.
But here is Tesla, Ford and GMβs stock price.
