Fuckin welfare queen
- Illegal immigrant. Welfare queen.
  
  No kink shaming, but conservatives really are cucks, huh?
  
  Musk is a fascist evil villain, not a conservative. He is also not liked much by the conservatives I know.
  
  One day I want the word conservative to go back to what is used to mean decades ago. Conservative used to not mean whatever is happening now
- That's how these parasites all do it, market & government manipulation and handouts
Guys, he's just .. like .. a modern day robin hood .. you know how that story goes .. he is taking from evil poor people, to keep the money safe. And don't fact check that story like an evil poor pleb.
- Elon Musk, Elon Musk Riding through the land Elon Musk, Elon Musk Without a merry band He steals from the poor And gives to the rich Stupid removed
- He's Robbin the Hood.
In other news, it is a bad idea to touch a lit stovetop.
While average American people suffer, the world's richest man diverts 38 billion dollars of their taxes to himself.
I can't believe Bezos allowed WaPo to publish this.
- They're not friends lol. Bezos would be happy to see Musk sink.
  
  They might not be friends, but they have unconditional class solidarity, do we?
Illegal Immigrant Elon Musk taking BILLIONS of my Tax Dollars if FINE! What I REALLY care about is my Neighbor JOSE who is here LEGALLY and takes NO Tax Dollars but is BROWN!
And this illegal billionaire will not suffer any repercussions whatsoever. If that was me, I'll be in prison just by the thought of it.
Kleptocracy.
I think we found what to cut to hit that 4.5 trillion budget!
Thanks Obama.

Seriously, the Obama administration loved this guy even though it was obvious to a lot of us that he was a total grifter. The Starship/Artemus plan made no sense but got selected anyway.
