Must just spent over $500M influencing midterms in the US.

They don't want us to have any power left a few years from now, and they're winning.","comments":[{"id":50247063,"user":"cortesoft","time":1793033933,"time_ago":"20 hours ago","type":"comment","content":"

Sociopathic billionaires like Musk, Thiel, Ellison, Zuckerberg, and their cohort.","comments":[{"id":50247625,"user":"small_model","time":1793035928,"time_ago":"19 hours ago","type":"comment","content":"

Yes because left wing billionaires don't spend money trying to influence politics, only those bad right wing nazis!!!","comments":[{"id":50248056,"user":"poncho_romero","time":1793037417,"time_ago":"19 hours ago","type":"comment","content":"

This is such a strawman. No one on the left likes left wing billionaires either (to the extend that such a thing exists). People like Musk, Thiel, and Zuckerberg get more attention because they are more visible.","comments":[{"id":50249208,"user":"reliabilityguy","time":1793041279,"time_ago":"18 hours ago","type":"comment","content":"

I think the comment wasn’t about likability but about the fact that both sides of political spectrum have very rich people donating to influence politics.

Your feelings towards those individuals doesn’t matter in the grand scheme of things, what matters is that everyone’s opinions are shaped/influenced by the few with money.","comments":[],"comments_count":0,"level":4,"url":"item?id=50249208"},{"id":50248582,"user":"inertiatic","time":1793039197,"time_ago":"18 hours ago","type":"comment","content":"
