Unfortunately, this whole thing worked exactly as intended. The overwhelming majority of US citizens were discussing if Musk was a Nazi while Trump signed a massive list of executive orders under the cover of media noise.
everyone knows this including everyone that tried to pretend like they were doing the exact same thing musk was….
it what i’d call “nerd sniping” form of trolling….
they make endless stupid claims with “sources” and just keep you arguing, spinning your wheels, and wasting your energy trying to “convince” someone that the world’s most obvious nazi salute, post wwii, was a nazi salute.

dude it’s all in there! what you don’t have enough attention span to watch that? you must not really care that much… 🤣
i also noticed they all switched from 🤡 to 🤣 between trump’s terms…
which makes it feel centrally controlled, you can pretty much filter for those emojis and find 95% chuds / r-bots
