    Here’s why this isn’t a good idea even if musk is terrible: it means trump can do it to everyone else

          So why are you acting like he can’t already do this to everyone else?

          The only people he can’t already do it to are the plutocrats.

            They are not.

            They are implying exactly what my wife said about it, if you do this to Musk and everyone cheers it because it’s now the rich guy, then it’s validating the entire act of these deportations.

            I hate Musk too but, sadly, even he should have a trial before deportation.

            Where did I say he can’t do this to everyone else and that he isn’t already doing it? He clearly is with how sends people to the el Salvador dungeon.

      It really doesn’t? All the reasons he’s already doing it to everyone else are why he is able to do it to everyone else. What meaningful change in direction are you even trying to point to here, if you already know that Trump is deporting people?

        The reason I wrote it is because many people hate Elon, and are like “yeah deport him” that would be encouraging trumps deportation regime and give further validation when people are trying to push back
