That's not what I said, at all. And what you're saying here in other words is "if you're not with us, you're against us." Nah man, I'm not against you and I'm not with you.

When it comes to e.g. Elon Musk and his bull#### I've already done my part: I will never buy a Tesla, and I don't use Twitter. You wanna make him go away? Don't buy Teslas and don't use Twitter. The more you engage in stupid ####ing debates with his idiotic sycophants over whatever dumb #### the guy says next, the more it gives him the means and the agency to keep on propping up those fascists and Nazis. Elon Musk has a paper net worth in the hundreds of billions because people talk about the guy all the time. The fact that you pay attention and care fuels his fortune. It'll disappear the instant he becomes just some dumb background noise, so start treating him as such.
