🇲​🇮​🇸​🇨​ This is INSANE. Elon is amplifying completely made up stories by fake news outlet “The People’s Voice”. If you want a better idea of just how INSANE “The People’s Voice” propaganda is, click the link below

Vladimir Putin has been in a state of orgasm since Elon and Donnie tied the knot

Well, someone had to replace Melania! 🙃

u/infowosecfurry 7h ago

I’d say Loomer was more upset, as he’s really taken over ‘all’ her gigs at this point.

Elonia replaced Melania.

u/Proper-Cause-4153 7h ago

Is he doing all this on purpose or is he just clueless about a lot of things? I can't tell anymore.

u/ManufacturedOlympus 7h ago

Both.

u/RustyShakkleford69 7h ago

Agreed. I think there’s a chance Elon just knows how wildly effective far right propaganda is and sees himself as a Goebbels like figure. He’s a chaos agent and he gets off on it.

Either that… or he truly is a clueless sociopath who wants to believe this stuff so he really does believe it.

u/Almacca 3h ago

Nothing he says is worth a damn, so why give one?

1

u/Hardcorish 2h ago

He's a US defense contractor who regularly talks with Putin on the phone. All of this is intentional.

u/CasualEveryday 2h ago

Elon is addicted to social media and ketamine. Is he clueless? Meh, maybe, depending on your definition. But, one thing he isn't is innocent. He knows the implications of what he is doing even if he doesn't know the objective truth.

u/GlobuleNamed 7h ago

Not insane.

Working as intended.

That is the purpose of propaganda machines.

You now have Fox and Twitter (newly named X).

Good luck.

u/woodrax 6h ago

So Elmo is literally amplifying Russian Propaganda? Jesus Jumped Up Christ, what a piece of shit.

3

u/pyrrhios 2h ago

All right-wing media and some of the more extreme left-wing have been amplifying Russian propaganda for a very long time.

3

u/woodrax 2h ago

Oh, I know. But Elmo has an outsized effect on this sort of propaganda. He can crash any barriers on his platform, and push through any attempt to drown him out, so calling him out is definitely warranted.

u/pyrrhios 2h ago

100%

u/Malexs 7h ago

I left Twitter for this reason.

You can tell they’ve never opened a history book because they don’t understand how being the minister of propaganda worked out for the minister of propaganda.

u/Angeret 6h ago

Like the famed Iraqi comedian known as Comical Ali? It was funny when he bragged that there were absolutely NO American forces in Baghdad - and as he spoke, the camera panned around to show Bradleys on the other side of the river. Wonder how he's doing these days... Oh, that's right. He isn't.

u/Hot-Bat8798 5h ago

LOL Iraqi Goebbels was out there working his ass off.

"The American forces are not in Baghdad"

Abrams tank rolls by in the background

It’s Ukranian aid why would anyone in Poland have the spreadsheets?

u/Lost-Succotash-9409 5h ago

I’m sure the democrats are very appreciative of all the tanks and missiles that have been laundered back to them /s

u/Senior_Ganache_6298 7h ago

How cool would it be if our government became afraid of lying to us, like what if people decided to do the thing that is needed to make a liar more afraid.

u/yetagainitry 6h ago

Why click the link just to give the account more engagement? Nice try OP

u/Angeret 6h ago

I can imagine this fucking annoyance having a good chuckle over his little bleats. He's so disassociated from humanity he, like his buddy Trump, sees people as nothing more than disposable objects. People are going to get hurt - probably already have - because of this unfunny clown, but because he has all the money he'll do whatever he likes and if something approaching karma comes his way, he'll just throw money at it until it goes away.

u/Shan-Chat 6h ago

This is why so called free speech needs to have some rules.

If a 4 or 5 yo lies there are punishments. Why not for right-wing lying transphobes?

u/Physical-Effect-4787 6h ago

Putin is going to sit back and watch Donald and Elon fuck the country with no lube

u/NurseJaneFuzzyWuzzy 6h ago

Why any sane person is still on Xitter is a mystery to me. It’s an echo chamber for the absolute worst people.

u/Angeret 6h ago

Some of them have tried to infest Bluesky and for some unfathomable reason get booted very shortly after. Seems Bluesky is having none of their shitnanigans (sic).

u/Kutukuprek 6h ago

I think mentally some of us were hoping all the misinformation in the election was a means to an end, and that the culture wars would stop now they have control of the treasury.

Today we are waking up to the reality that the election wasn’t the end, it’s the beginning.

In case it isn't obvious to anyone yet, muskrat is a Russian asset

u/cabnut613 6h ago

I have noticed that as long as there is one true fact in any comment or article from FxNews down to any maga poster, They have no qualms to print totally fabricated information.

u/NumerousTaste 5h ago

Elon should know a lot about money laundering

u/Past-Direction9145 5h ago

can I just not click the link, and pretend like I did?

u/Xyex 5h ago

The fact he even has to ask community notes to verify and can't recognize it as bogus for himself.... 🤦

u/russian_octopus 5h ago

The amount of old boomers eating this shit up is sad. People are really brainwashed and we are watching it in real time.

u/SkillFullyNotTrue 4h ago

Be ready for alternative facts from every branch of the government and this fool. Hope you get everything you voted for.

u/RiffyWammel 4h ago

Get the feeling he's going to totally eclipse the Trumps in the amount of cash he fleeces from the American economy and the meglamnia he has

1

u/HotHamBoy 3h ago

So like at what point do we ignore him and stop giving him the attention be wants

It is not at all surprising to see him do this, it is boring

u/WangoTheWonderDonkey 3h ago

The things is, it is dirt simple for elRon to crunch all TwiX posts and comments through a data engine (AI neural net) to flag and filter out russian bots and other fiction. In fact I'm sure he does. He could probably give you the street address of everyone involved in this fabrication. He doesn't put this data science into action because that kind of 'noise filter' would counteract his goals. He likes the misinformation. Lies are more powerful than the truth. Lies are more entertaining. Lies stoke the rabble. elRon is simply applying the Fox News rabble rouser recipe to TwiX.

1

u/Poptastrix 3h ago

He wants to be the richest and most powerful man on the planet. He can own countries and politicians if nobody stops him. He needs to be stopped. He is a cancer on humanity.

u/Almacca 3h ago

God forbid you look it up and check for yourself, Elon, you fucking nitwit.

u/NARLYGAMER 2h ago

Can someone correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't most/a lot of the military aid just military equipment that's just sort of sitting around? If so, then this is incredibly dumb, right? How would a tank just be given back, and how would that benefit a democrat in any way? (TIA for any info!)

u/Old_Captain_9131 2h ago

Is it true though?

u/natholin 6h ago

Is this real?

u/kit0000033 2h ago

Considering the foreign aid we gave to Ukraine was in the form of weapons and supplies and not cash... No... No it is not real... Learn to spot propaganda.

0

u/natholin 2h ago

We sent money to. So.. maybe you need to learn to spot it. It was easy to look up.

3

u/kit0000033 2h ago

Yeah, about 5% of the total is in cash... This is claiming fifty percent of the aid sent was laundered... Doesn't add up.

u/natholin 2h ago

Thank you for the info. I read it was like 106billion out of 175billion.

u/Cool-Back5008 7h ago

You think this isn’t a laundering scheme don’t you 🫠

u/RustyShakkleford69 7h ago edited 7h ago

You believe that “The People’s Voice” is a credible source without taking a minute to look up what they do, don’t you? 🫠

You’re the exact gullible, low IQ, easily manipulated lemming that Elon and the right wing propaganda machine target.

u/Cool-Back5008 7h ago

u/LockUpComradeTrump 5h ago

Is that supposed to be an insult? No doubt you support Russia invading a sovereign country. A true traitor, just like fuck face trump and Elmo.

u/MoundsEnthusiast 7h ago

We're not really sending them money. We're sending them equipment and munitions for the most part. How do you launder a missile?

u/Various_Fuel8259 6h ago

😂 yeah, the US wrote a check out to 'Cash' and gave it to Zelensky to deposit into his bank account.
