The post is starting out with the wrong assumptions so naturally it’s conclusions are wrong, top tier shitpost.

In the old days we’d use this kind of pseudoscience for mischief (you know, trolling), now it’s disinformation spread by useful idiots to upend their democracies.

This is obviously highly suspicious, but

The amount of people parroting just whatever is currently in without critically questioning it (or even being open to question it) (looking at you, fascists (maga) and tankies (pro-putin /pro-hamas)) is too high

I don't know what makes a person lose interest in politics and just parrot whatever the others parrot, but I'm highly suspicious that T is it. I think that part is just a lie in Elon's interest to spread.

BTW I just assumed that T is testosterone

tankies (pro-putin /pro-hamas)

Man, one of these is absolutely not like the other.

A democracy that is only democratic for the select few? I wonder what that's called...

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 months ago

Um... aktuly its called a Constitutional Republic.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 2 months ago

I hope someone simply linked a wiki definition of the word oligarchy, because that would literally be what this is. One in-group that practices democracy amongst themselves but excludes the rest from political power.

So The Handmaid's Tale then?

[–] [email protected] 37 points 2 months ago

A democracy that is only democratic for the strongest, is not a democracy at all.

[–] [email protected] 38 points 2 months ago

Autist here.

We have a long history opposing societal, including gender, norms. And have deep connections with the early lgbt movements. Many people on the spectrum identify as queer.

Its not a secret that Elon believes he is on the spectrum, and we know he has at least one queer child. We also know that people who are stuck in the closest often channel this through self hate and hate of others who express.

Now that is interesting. “High T Males” on the other hands are a total joke.

As an aneurotypical person, which, according to elon musk, makes me immune to propaganda and means that all my decisions are selfless, i can say that he is a liar who tries to make himself above other people and cares more about his public image than his kids

Why is nobody finding the “Autist Autocracy” interesting as well?!

Lost me at the “high T alpha”.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

Truly ironic

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

So does this mean the "meathead" stereotype is dead or...

[–] [email protected] 16 points 2 months ago (1 children)

People who work together can't really do democracy. The only true democracy is the one where a small number of people order everyone around without the input of most people. Because that's what democracy means.

My source is the obvious sarcasm.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago

Sadly in this day and age, it is not obvious sarcasm.

RIP Irony.

With how much he whines about this shit I guarantee he takes tes and feels insecure about it

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

Dude is immune to irony 🤦‍♂️

[–] [email protected] 58 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Autistic people are well known for not feeling the need to fit in. That's why no autistic person ever spends 90% of their time in public masking who they really are

[–] [email protected] 25 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Dont get too close to the edge of this sarchasm, its a long drop to the bottom.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago

Shit... I just gazed into that abyss.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

The funny part is that the conservatives are the ones who are, by nature, authoritarian followers.

Holy shit, I assumed this was fake but it's not https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1830390502836854925 (link accessible as of 2024-09-02)

[–] [email protected] 35 points 2 months ago

Yeah, this is a really weird flex. They're taking work from the author of The Mass Psychology of Fascism, which in a general sense can be used to compare Nazism to the current MAGA movement, but saying that those susceptible to it are... Beta males?

If these mental gymnastics were any more complex they would have won gold in France last week.

All the "high T alpha males" I've ever met are also the least critical thinkers I've ever met.

[–] [email protected] 55 points 2 months ago (2 children)

And none of them have ever backed it up with a blood test

Yeah I tend to think that anyone who identifies as high t alpha male is actually just the opposite.

They are usually the ones seeking admiration and approval. Meanwhile the free thinkers are just doing our days and caring for our tribes. No approval needed.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

That's like asking the tallest dwarf to reach the top shelf
