Absolutely not surprised by Musk exit from US government role.

The Tax bill is just an excuse

Musk is just groking how foolish, naive and ignorant his whole approach was and cannot phantom the idea that he failed, so he’s using the Tax bill to exit.

Une dérive sectaire à l’échelle sociétale se manifeste lorsque des événements aussi graves qu’un génocide peuvent se produire sans réaction collective, du fait d’un climat où toute critique devient risquée et peut être perçue comme une prise de position antisémite.

Quand une société sombre dans une dérive sectaire, elle finit par tolérer l’intolérable. Un génocide peut alors avoir lieu dans l’indifférence générale, car le dénoncer, c’est s’exposer à être cloué au pilori, accusé d’antisémitisme. Voilà le constat.
