Arrest Of Elon Musk For Felony Vote Buying Demanded In Wisconsin
Wisconsin Democratic Party Chair Ben Wikler has accused Elon Musk of felony vote buying and he has called for the billionaire's arrest if he comes to the state.
You're viewing a single thread.
If this arrest doesn't happen, democracy is one step closer to the grave.
A lot of shit has happened to destroy democracy so far (has anyone been keeping a list?), but if billionaires see that they can now buy votes, nothing will stop them from doing it over and over again. We will be Russia.
and its becoming blatant and bold
Muskrat isn't doing this for any other reason other than to test and expand the boundaries. It's challenging the American people .... if he can go this far and allowed to get away with it, then it will become the norm. The fault won't be that he is doing it ... the fault will be the American people who put up with this crap.
I've given up on trying to understand dumb American politicians .... I'm completely disillusioned and lost hope in the American people.
It's not a small group of billionaires that will destroy democracy in America ... it will be an entire nation of people who just stand aside and watch everything burn without saying or doing a thing about it.

It's easy. They are cowards, and they are for sale. If money doesn't make them snap to attention, threats will. I also think a healthy percentage of them have been to Russia, and those are being blackmailed.
At this point democracy is so far underground that only a Level 17 necronancer can resurrect it
Even then the DM is gonna hit us with a bullshit counterspell
Silvery Barbs (shoved up his ass) is our only hope.
I'll probably get called a commie but at it's core, is this version of democracy working well? I'm all for equal rights but if the majority of people are incapable of understanding what it takes to run a nation, how do we trust them to vote someone in who will be a good leader?
If it wasn't evident enough during his first campaign that he has no interest in enriching the lives of the average american, his first 4 years in office should have proven he is not trying to help out the blue collar class, if Jan 6 wasn't enough to show he is not a level headed leader then what will? If his second term starting off with trying to start trade wars wasn't enough, then at what point are we going to realize an overwhelming amount of people are always going to vote for terrible candidates?
I'm having trouble reasoning to myself that the current system is capable of bringing progress. It's just constant flipping between a couple parties undoing what the previous administration did, how is this a good thing?
That's like homebrew lvl 25 shit!
If this arrest doesn't happen, democracy is one step closer to the grave.
Worry not, most Americans are bravely waiting until they have no options left and literally living in squalor before considering any action
In the last 8+ years I have seen the goal post for action moved so many times, I have lost all hope Americans will actually do something for themselves
I guess you won't make fun of French people anymore
I have seen the goal post for action moved so many times
Yes. I have too. I honestly think I've moved my own goal posts for action, as well. I think most of the people like me feel truly lost about what to do. We need a Martin Luther King, Jr figure to unite and direct.
I guess you won't make fun of French people anymore
It's stupid now but it was already stupid when they did it before, so I don't why that would change
A lot of people strongly believe that God will protect them from whatever terrible Biblical punishments are going to befall the Liberals, Minorities, and Gays. They seem to forget that the Divine Retribution they are praying for so hard always carries enormous collateral damage. SEE: Ark, Noah's, also Sodom/Gommorah, also Plagues, Egyptian, etc.
Your ten thousand foot view is very limited.
I'm at the point where I know he won't face consequences because he's rich. But an arrest and trial would at least be sanity.
But an arrest and trial would
be an absolute pony show ending with no conviction.
We only have a criminal justice system for the poors. If you want justice for people like Musk, vigilante is the only option.
Unless...hear me out....he fucks up the comfort zone of the other rich bastards.
He's richer.
Heck, he's richer than a lot of them combined.
Caesar was more powerful than the whole Senate
Ken McElroy could beat up, rape, threaten and rob anyone in town until he couldn't anymore.
Not for long
Why don’t the poor people just pull themselves up by their bootstraps? Then they too would be rich /s
Trump already announced he plans to prosecute anyone trying to enforce the Hatch Act.
The Hatch Act is what makes this illegal.
Prosecute for what, exactly?
"Whoops, the judge ordered us to release them because we did not actually charge them, but they're already in an El Salvador prison 🤷♀️"
You’re asking that like a dictator needs a legal byline for his actions.
It isn't gonna happen. Nothing happened to Trump, nothing will happen to Musk. Too rich, too powerful. Justice is only for the pariahs.
Brian Thompson was rich and powerful too, before he got Luigi'd.
That was a case of civilian, extrajudicial sentencing. Nothing to do with the justice system.
Good point.
I have over 100 tabs open on my phone waiting to go into a document
Brilliant! I'd love to see the finished list when it's done.
I mean, I'd love for it not to have to exist, but here we are.
Democracy is not a step closer to the grave, it’s already dead, just not buried and so now it’s lying on the street , smelling funny and a tad off-colour.
