101. Haven't you heard? Musk has declared empathy undemocratic. And that's not sarcasm or hyperbole.
Wed Apr 2, 2025, 02:10 PM
Wednesday

I heard him on tape saying that empathy destroys democracy because countries like the US bring in immigrants who are detrimental to the society and democratic system of government.

So, the next person that we deport should be Mr. Musk, the immigrant foreigner from South Africa
