Elon Musk claimed Sunday that electing former President Donald Trump in November is the “only way” to save the country from the tyranny of Democrats and illegal migrants.

The billionaire SpaceX, Tesla, and X CEO claimed the Democratic Party would naturalize enough non-citizens as voters during a Kamala Harris presidency to turn the US into a “one-party state.”

    Fascists like elon musk don’t just lie, they exactly invert the truth.

    He knows that trump winning ends democracy, so he goes into fascist mode and says the opposite. They do it all the time.

        Projection. Goes great (puts on monocle) Pairs well with obstruction and gaslighting.

        …and when you’re rich, they let you do it 🧐

    He doesn’t actually believe this nonsense he spews, just like all the other conservative propagandists.

    The problem is all the people that believe this idiocy. One of progressives biggest hurdles should be to drastically improve education to teach logic and critical thinking skills at a young age. This would be a cure to a lot of this dumbest of dumb propaganda. It’s just so stupid it’s obvious. But many people will actually believe it, and spread it.

    Unfortunately, we’re losing. Public education is not getting better, funding is being cut, and tax money is in some places starting to go to religious private schools. This is all being pushed by conservatives. Keeping the populace stupid is how they stay in power, and wealth.

      because the US has spent decades creating a culture that allows this level of stupidity in their national politics

      Stupid people saying stupid things in public is only considered acceptable if everyone that is listening in to all the stupidity are stupid themselves.

      Sweet Jesus, I wish that Democratic voters and politicians were unified enough that if we had a solid majority in this country that we could be considered a one-party state. Even if we somehow did manage to finagle things such that we won the next election 60-40 or more, it’s obvious to anyone with a brain that we would immediately celebrate by turning on each other like dogs. The neolibs can’t stand the hippies. The hippies can’t stand the tech liberals. Most of the people pushed left by identifying with one oppressed minority group or another are in a coalition approximately as stable as the Balkans in 1913.

      Democrats’ favorite activity is infighting. We like it more than winning elections. The times when we actually manage to get our shit together enough to win are the exception to the rule.

        Well ackschuallllly what he meant was that no other party will stand a chance so it will effectively be a one party system as so many “liberal” immigrants will become citizens that they’ll outnumber Republicans everywhere.

          Even if that were true, which is truly ridiculous, new factions would pop up. If it swayed so far left that the Democrats always won, all the further left people would demand all the things they’ve been left without just to keep fascists from winning.

          Basically, it would just be a leftward shift of the Overton window, which is LONNNG overdue. But it certainly wouldn’t be the end of elections, that’s stupid.

            And that right there is why we need a sweeping blue victory. Kill off the crazy GOP of today, and let the left split into true left, and more traditional conservatives, or even center.

      He’s in profile pretending to pour it in his mouth like a sloppy sleight-of-hand artist, but it’s very clearly spilling all over his shoulder down his pants into his socks.

    Can we have that man forcibly removed from our country please? He’s already proven to be threat to our democracy. If he wants to say dumb shit like this, he can do so from far away where our taxes aren’t paying for the services he’s using to circumvent it.

      (⁠-⁠_⁠-⁠メ⁠) Please, no! I don’t think anyone else wants him… we only have one Tesla factory in this country and it’s on the news on a regular base. And it’s never good news.

      Maybe we can try to make him want to sit in the next bar he sends to space himself

    Every GOP accusation is projection. If Trump is elected, this will be the last election. Trump says so himself:

    “Speaking to the faithful, the Republican nominee repeated his ominous prediction, promising, “You know what, It’ll be fixed! It will be fine, you won’t have to vote anymore, my beautiful Christians,” he said as he shook his head and placed his hand on the pledge position on the left side of his chest.” source
