That’s a very good question.
I think people like you and me and the other posters here are good, even when we disagree. People in general on both sides are good. It’s some politicians and some powerful private individuals and business leaders that are evil, not necessarily because of what they believe, but because of how they want to gain power and impose their will on the rest of us. They are arrogant SOBs that want to impose their will through lies, deception, mandate, threat, control of media, control of institutions designed to protect us, and worse if necessary. They don’t believe in freedom. That’s why they are melting down over Musk buying Twitter. They are essentially totalitarians. That’s what makes them evil.

Completely agree Class. This country is eroding so fast. Homeless rampant, drugs killing are youth, child abuse becoming acceptable. But the narrative keeps winning on these fronts. I am on the fence about Musk? Good guy? Too early for me to tell. What hurts me the most is, I enjoyed a beautiful childhood. I really do not think my grandchildren will enjoy the innocence that I did. There is no stopping the government agenda. Both sides are just as cruel as the other. God help us.

If they were truly evil and totalitarian, they would have prevented Musk from buying twitter in the first place...
OR
It's what they want...
OR OR
Musk is just part of them too...

“We found that the FBI plays a big role in working with social media companies to censor speech—from weekly meetings with social media companies ahead of the 2020 election to asks for account takedowns,” said Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt in a Dec. 2 series of tweets, three days after deposing Special Agent Elvis Chan, who is in charge of cyber affairs at the FBI San Francisco Field Office.

FBI = Federal Government, does it not?

I want to believe that Musk has good intentions but it is possible that he is Soroslike and thinks it is "fun" (like Soros) to fuck around with a country on a very large scale.
If nothing becomes of the Twitter election interference and everyone is absolved, it will be worse than if Twitter was never exposed in the first place.

Nobody is untouchable by the powers that rule this world. Nobody.
Either via Jeffrey Epstein-like blackmail, or outright assassination, nobody is safe.
This is what I believe.
So everybody who "matters" is basically compromised/captured.

Of course, not! You're just the quintessential paragon of independent critical thinking.
