Elon musk should be publicly executed and that day should be made a holiday

It’s not just that awful guy Elon; the Secretary of Health has also directly caused the deaths of several hundred thousand people by ruthlessly scrapping vital global programs that took decades to build (the CDC does not exist anymore for example - at least not as a credible, scientific institution which it, of course, needs to be to serve it's purpose).

Added to this are many horrible war crimes for which the US regime, together with Israel, is responsible.

Hell, it would be impossible to list all the crimes against humanity without writing an entire novel about them. There are just too many in not even two years.

So, in short: It would be good if U.S. citizens were aware of the global impact of their irresponsibility.

But hey, maybe the world will learn from this, which will only accelerate the inevitable downfall of the U.S. There’s even a somewhat recent historical precedent for this: Russia.

That country was once a superpower, too, but it was ruined by the greed of its billionaires and is now an autocracy that serves solely to enrich its rulers - back then, by the way, this was already happening and only possible with the generous support of the U.S. billionaires under Clinton.

So it seems very, very obvious: This is apparently inevitable for the U.S. as well, because the only thing that could stop it would be the population—and despite all the obvious crimes, the people aren’t fighting back. So the country is lost.

The world, for its part, will adapt.

CDC doesnt exist anymore???

yall needa revolt

Why? Yeah we're all gonna die in horrible ways but

What a pointless comment....

im just shocked

If you only seriously realize this when using some random social media app, you're the perfect example of how this could have happened. If not, then all the more so.

I realized that they basically defunded the CDC now because I live REALLY far away from america and dont subscribe to depressing us news

Then maybe you should hold back on making sarcastic comments about things you know nothing about.

Aside from the fact that mainstream social media apps are being misused by billionaires for their own purposes, that’s the biggest problem here: people who get in the way of a meaningful discussion because they feel the need to post something they find funny.

This isn’t a topic where jokes are appropriate. You may not grasp the consequences, but it’s exactly as I say: Hundreds of thousands of people are dying because of this.

And yet: You think this is a joke. That’s disgusting, nothing more.

It's less trustworthy in the guidelines but it's not defunded.

That's an understatement.

Could I see a source on that? (Unless it's an exaggeration, in which case please ignore my thickness)

Edit: I mean the number of deaths, not the elon quote

Food shortages. It's largely timing because the Russia war had already limited shipments of grain and increased costs, and they cut off food suddenly. It's not like there was a transition period and they had time to plant crops and have a growing season.

I believe most of them were due to USAID cuts.

https://www.impactcounter.com/dashboard has some stats showing deaths in the 750k range.

Edit: Ah, I see you meant source for the # not the quote
