Cute.

Let’s drop the pretense and call a spade a spade. DOGE is, was, and never will be about efficiency. Never. It’s about gutting “woke” programs, funneling that money into their own pockets, and punishing the rest of us for daring to believe we could “pull ourselves up by our bootstraps”.

And by “woke”, I mean any program that benefits people in such a way as to educate them, make them healthier, or even allow them to live comfortably.

We are literally at war, and right now we are losing horrifically to the billionaires who are desperately trying to put us in our place; as if we’re rabid dogs who need to be taught a lesson.

It's not about woke and it is kind of sad you think it is. I guess their propaganda works pretty well if you believe it.

I would suggest it was about eliminating several investigations into Felon Musk. It is being used to feed important government and citizen data into an organization like Cambridge Analytics which will be used to manipulate our elections. It is also being used as cover for a series of epic pump and dumps.

The whole woke thing is literally a joke. These guys are in it to make money and keep people divided with their made up culture war.

The war you speak of is a class war and until people wake up and work together to fix the very real economic issues we are facing we are all going to suffer.

We are an empire in decline and these fuckers want to steal what is left of our future for their benefit.

World War III is a guerrilla information war with no division between military and civilian participation.

You forgot stealing the private data of all US citizens.

Anything that isn't designed to overwhelming benefit the rich is gonna go. That way if you want anything in this world, you have to be born rich or beg the rich for it.

There is a 3rd option:

Behave just like the rich and just take whatever you want.

You’re forgetting that the rich pay-to-play, so they have access to resources we do not: namely paying off cops, judges, and politicians. You see, it’s “rules for thee, not for me” with the rich. In other words, what’s legal for them is illegal for us.

But from them, not others. Right? Right?

I believe the intention is to create modern day slaves of us all. All for the amusement and enrichment of those who are insanely rich, and probably bored of being rich, so they turn to the last thing that gives them amusement: human torture.
