@DarrigoMelanie You don't even care if you spread lies, as long you satisfy your rage at Elon and Trump for whatever wrongdoing they did against you

@CoryBooker This is the same as Senators who sit on committees who buy stock. Hypocrisy blinds you.

@PattyMurray GAO didn't ish to stop the trillions wasted over the last 16 years, why start now?

@DefiantLs The screeching alone makes my ears bleed

@Mike_Pence If our EU counterparts in NATO cared so much, they would've done more. They choice to use sanctions, well, let's hope it saves them if that were to ever become an inevitability.

@ChimChek Doesn't matter, he's hired, and the players can hit the portal if they don't like his style and think Coach Day is no longer their head coach

@elonmusk They think we're stupid, or their readers at least. Why else push this garbage?

@Jamesso @SawyerMerritt It's all good.

I don't see how I went off the rails. Prior to signing a contract, a legally binding one, wouldn't it be smart to do research on what principles and morals you feel you can stay silent by regarding your first amendment right? Does the onus of the signatory to their principles and morals go out the window due to the money that they wish to obtain, only to come back once enough money has been earned? I mean you make it seem as if they're allowed the benefit of the doubt because of a conflict of interest, the conflict in this instance being on the former employee who resigned, who I might add, felt that he only needed to because he felt entitled to his thoughts. If you sign something, you better understand it in detail what you're giving up.

Contrary to your belief, free speech does have a price, a contractual one; when an individual willingly enters into an agreement that limits certain expressions in exchange for compensation. In cases like this, the value of speech is quantified in the dollar amount one is paid to uphold confidentiality or corporate interests. Whether Elon personally values free speech in absolute terms is irrelevant to the reality that legal agreements exist, and they define the boundaries of speech within employment. If a person holds true to their morals and principles, they should have developed those convictions before entering a situation where their rights may be contractually restricted. Ethics and morality born from ignorance, realized only when personal interests are threatened, are not principles at all, but reactions to inconvenience. In this case, the individual in question was not silenced; he was an employee who signed a contract and later chose to speak out after quitting. His words, while personal, were seen as detrimental to the company and could be classified as proprietary information or harmful disclosure, making any legal response from the company, such as defamation claims or cease-and-desist orders, within their rights. More than anything, this situation seems like an attempt to capitalize on political turmoil to generate sympathy while evading self-accountability for a decision that was fully within his control. Principles mean little if they only emerge after personal stakes are lost; true conviction is measured in what one refuses to compromise, even at great cost.

No, Elon shouldn’t be paying for knowledge he gained from NASA because what you're proposing grossly misunderstands intellectual property and government contracts. NASA is a publicly funded agency that collaborates with private companies, sharing research and technology to advance space exploration, which means every company that has a contract with them would need to do it for free or pay the entity, in this case NASA, for the research that NASA requested or didn't request. If you need an analogy, it would be like suggesting that every military veteran or government employee should owe money for the skills and knowledge they gained while serving, even if they apply them in private-sector jobs later. That’s not how contracts, knowledge transfer, or intellectual property work. Elon, like other contractors, operates under legal agreements where he delivers services in exchange for funding, not as an employee who was given "free" knowledge.

@LakotaMan1 Disregarding the intellect of billions of people and claiming they're stupid because they do not share your opinion, is stupid. Since you didn't clarify which group of people you're referring to, I can only assess that meant the entire world.

@PiperK @Jamesso @elonmusk So impatient. Because he hasn't gotten to it, he must be covering something up? That's a logical argument.

This isn't just a bad game, because this wasn't a regular season loss. I can't speak to what goes on in the Chiefs organization but they clearly showed lack of preparation with their minimal gameplan adjustment (minimal as in only the defense showed some preparation). Mahomes get the blame cause the media always makes it about the QB when it comes to wins and losses so this is the result of that. I think the only time this doesn't happen is when the Seahawks beat the Broncos.

@catturd2 Actually, I think this is a power play. Dems want them to be in the streets or in front a mic because it then it'll all they'll be focused on and then nothing won't get done. When they come up for air, Dems ain't gone know what hit them.

@tiggerbluedevil @remdog1138 I don't think that was being argued but yes, you are correct, one cannot do both.

@DesireeAmerica4 The only problem is that an arrest would be unlikely to happen if a warrant was issued

@GuntherEagleman If Trump & his team stay smart & use this moment strategically, they can then turn the tables on the bureaucracy, courts, & institutions that have been corrupted. This is the perfect opportunity where the constitution reasserts control over the government.

I never argued either side but yes, I am aware. Most actually go to poa (hands to side, heels together at 45°) as that is what is taught, at least is was for me. This is not really a point of contention for me, so I don't care if you're out of uniform and salute, it can still be done as a sign of respect, my point to get a clarified answer because it left too much to speculation that others heedlessly latched onto.

@remdog1138 @ministertr48881 @TRHLofficial If you did, then you know that what you had asked isn't what happens, it wouldn't even have been formatted as a question, it'd be a statement cause of your first hand observation.
