          I say get like a circus cannon but reinforced, load it with a lot of powder with elon’s live body as the payload, then fire him and some others at a massed crowd of silicon valley executives in a mass public execution broadcast on network television.

          After being dually convicted in the courts as prescribed by law of course, that goes without saying.

    He will track anyone stupid enough to do this, then if they are not likely to vote Republican he will fuck with their registration on the voter rolls.

    Anybody remember the Cambridge Analytica scandal?
    What stuck in my mind (and my craw) is not that the Zuckerborg fucked it up, but that what CA is doing - flooding social media with bot content to influence voting - was and still is perfectly legal.
    That should’ve been the bigger scandal imo.

    BTW that company was quickly renamed and still exists to this day.

    So there’s nothing illegal about what Mee-lon is doing here. And that’s a broken system, to quote his on-and-off-its-complicated buddy.

    That said, he’s known to break the confines of too-weak legislation on this matter, and he’s likely to do it here as well.

    This whole ‘register to vote’ thing just seems so… useless to me.

    Don’t you already register an address (or mail address) wherever you live? So you have the record of who’s allowed to vote but you make them go and tell you that they want to vote before they’re allowed to?

    Extra steps for no reason it seems.
