The basic embarrassment of this thing is why business leaders with sense just shut the hell up about the subject. But you have to like, be sober to shut up about such things, so that's Karp excluded right there...
Alex Karp has always thought of himself as progressive. He's liberal on all the social issues and moderate on economic, practically like establishment Dems that voted for the Patriot Act.
He is liberal on a few social issues but he is ideologically opposed to liberalism. He cannot be progressive unless you're on of those people who think progressive is progressing towards an authoritarian "utopia"
He saw Elon Musk purging his X account of any positive mention of the Trump regime and thought he'd join him. I must give it to Elon, he was the quickest to react. Makes sense as he's the most desparate to be liked of all of them.
What's next? Larry Elisson says he's monopolized mainstream media and TikTok to promote progressive viewpoints? Zuckerberg says that he's got the whole world addicted to his algorithms and built a shadow profile on everyone so that he can spread progressive ideals in the most personalized, optimal manner?
You know what, in this timeline, they might even say that.
I agree with the sentiment, but I always got the idea that Zuck was just siding with whoever was in power. It doesn't really feel like, imo, that Meta was designed to spread conservative propaganda...just propaganda in general. Especially not in the league of Larry Elisson...but maybe I'm ignorant of something
Beyond comedy!

What a crackpot. Watch a video with him or Peter, they're clearly on drugs.

At least he has a good sense of humor.
He has expertise on targetting progressives for sure ;)
Is that a white flag? I can't tell because it turns too quickly with the wind.

Absurdly unverifiable
