Spez dickrides the fuck out of Elon, as far as they're concerned they're not tanking their sites, their cleaning out the "liberal brain rot" and the easily controlled userbase will stay while the others will move on or stay but actively fight until ultimately also leaving or worse, assimilation.

It all boils down to narcissists/fascists in power don't want to be challenged, they just want obedience and acceptance, they want echo chambers.

"liberal brain rot"

I haven't heard it called that before, but it seems to be directly related to the phenomenon of "brain drain" from the same locations, both digital and physical.
