Something like 70% of gradates in STEM fields in Iran are women. Their economy can’t absorb the skilled labors because of the sanctions though, but that is their goal: To hinder democracy and a middle class that wouldn’t want to sell out to the west. What the US and Israel is doing is meant to do the opposite of what leftists want for Iran. And war is certainly not going to make any of this better.

Yes, but remember what Microsoft Windows 10 is named after. That’s really weird and hostile too!

The exulted digital aristocrat, Captain of Industry and technofeudalist Lord Musk

I mean he doesn’t really any roots or supporters among MAGA like e.g. Steve Bannon. Musk “joined” MAGA shortly before the elections, but MAGA is already… over 10 years old? Musk wasn’t part of that and doesn’t really “speak to” MAGA either. The people he appealed to didn’t come from MAGA. It was clear to MAGAts as well that he’s just an opportunist and a useful tool. They liked him because he’s an absurd clown that makes liberals cry. @pyre@lemmy.world

Well chewed up - besides the financial losses - the lack of people who “like” Elon Musk. Musk is as much as an narcissist as Trump, so those irrational motivations might have pushed him to support Trump in the first place after he lost his prestige with the liberals as a “captain of industry”. But now both sides hate him, he’s disgraced. Now he’s the one who raided the citizens data and smashed up everything with his “crazy” doge (Trump’s words in the future).
